My neighbor and I are doing a project creating benches and tables to sell for wounded warrior project. Not only fun, but satisfying.

So I did an experiment with my two 16s battery banks of 280ah cells. Both banks use 6mm tapped terminals with grub screws, and the same cheap busbars that come with the cells from China. Both banks are attached to identical JK 200amp/2 amp BMS's with the cheap sense wires that come with them...

I received this fluke as part of my tool kit, as a new computer technician for Digitial Equipment Corporation in the early 1980's. After several moves to new homes, I thought I had lost it. I had not used it since the late 90's. I found my old tool kit after my last move in 2021. I opened up...

I think Mike had good intentions, but got in WAY over his head, as he never vetted his suppliers prior to taking orders. Once broken shipments began showing up, with everyone looking for refunds or replacements, he was at the mercy of his suppliers, who screwed him, so he in turn went silent. I...

I believe in Love, not fear. I believe in being prepared, not afraid. I believe in freedom and laws, not the collective or anarchy. I believe in the power of the individual, and the right to be left alone. I believe in the power of the family, not the group or gang. I believe in equal...

It just seems like almost everything that was labled a "conspiracy" has been coming true these days. Crazy times we are living through. I am just enjoying each day, one day at a time. The news is filled with fear, anger, division, lust, catastrophy, war, and hopelessness. Its time to just grab...

Nothing the left does makes sense, unless its money and control for them. 10% for the big guy. They would rather people die than admit they are wrong. Perfect examples are all the democrat controlled leftist utopias that are blue state cities. Crime, homelessness, addiction, indoctrination in...

When did the US become a communist country, where the government dictates which products you can or cannot purchase? Light bulbs, gas ovens, cars, lawnmowers, generators.... the "free market" is now an illusion. Only capitalism can bring down prices based on competition. Central planning taxing...

Reads like a communist manifesto. Lots of nice sounding words that never work, like "re-imagining" the police defunding them and paying social workers instead, because BLM. Why can't rich eliteists just leave us the frack alone, thank you. Make your own utopia, and we will suffer with our own...

Quite a gift! Thank you Will!

Michael, just a suggestion. Perhaps you should let us know the name and contact info of this "Supplier"? 1: We will know never to do business with them. 2: Everyone who has money at stake, and not just YOU, could hound them to make it right. This way the weight is off your back and put on the...

Yup, Soylent green in a frozen wasteland of broken windmills and food riots. Liberal utopia

The Victronics 6500 is rock solid. The LuxPower also seems solid, and they are also selling Schneider now. Seems like they no longer want all the support issues anymore. That is actually a good business decision.

Ah.... so your answer is it's only hypnotized Trump supporters causing climate change, that and they are all 6th grade dropouts. You may as well call those who's opinion differs from yours "poopy heads", while you stamp your feet and scream from your safe space. Or, be daring and perhaps take...

Then explain the 1950's in America, when everyone said the pledge of allegiance in schools, and families went to Church on Sundays. Mothers raised the kids, and Fathers would discipline their children. Everyone had guns, and there were very few gun laws. Kids played cops and robbers with BB...

Ah, but when you build it yourself, YOU are the one who gets to pick the components! Motherboard, Bios firmware, memory configuration, AMD or Intel, graphics system, cooling system, power supply, case design, etc. Its built to YOUR specs, the way YOU like it. You get to decide how upgradeable...

Everyone should pay 10%. Thats it. If the government cant live on that, then they need to stop spending. No more billons wasted. What we just left in Afganistan is more thwn some country's GDP. If you make more, you pay more. No more giving a free ride to those that earn $15 an hour and less...

I just wanted to take a moment this Christmas season thank Will for inspiring this awesome community of folks who are willing to share their knowledge and experiences on this forum, the administrators who make it happen, and to each of you for helping and sharing in this community. I wish...

@svetz , thanks for the summary. It seems to me "Climate Change" as an issue of importance comes down to which ideaology people follow, and who's "facts" they follow. I see three camps of thought: 1)Climate change is man made, and will kill us off quickly if nothing is done. So I need to...

In my opinion, Its one of the cleanest solutions currently available, especially for a DIY system with mixed components. They have done a great job using good code to keep it simple, and are continually improving the product and adding support for more devices. I also like the fact that I can...

An unarmed woman. No warning. Just bang. For trespassing in a public building. Using your logic, every Antifa and BLM terrorist should have been mowed down while they were throwing Moltov cocktails and bricks at the police, which is WAY worse than trespassing.

The psychological effect of selfies, instant communication and gratification, trophies for all, Godlessness, online gaming, and limited personal interaction. Father's not there, Mother's dropping the kids off at daycare to go shopping or kickboxing, or an affair. No meals together, no...
