  3. here in Toongabbie we had a truck take down one power pole And then darkness descended. Short circuit shut down a large area . Or suburb. It doesn't take a major storm to knock-out our power supply So , a bbq & gas bottle with a light attachment, it gives off heat for the winter months, Cooks dinner. With light to see , what your eating . Just like a picnic. spacesailor

  6. If we want more panels on roofs . Why Do they cut out the low user's of power . That " minimum power bill " clause , has stopped many a home having ' rooftop solar ' installed . The wealthier homes use the most of what their panels produce. Those that use the least, & therefore contribute more to the grid , get no help installing panels. spacesailor
  7. But I find I'm more in communication! . By the internet, just like chatting with friends. Hi friends. spacesailor
  8. I was , under the impression, it was 36 volts ! . spacesailor PS. : even 12 v DC in an aluminium caravan, can store thousands of lethal amps .

  10. " REGISTERED ELECTRICIAN ". Can't even get them to Install an ' Earth Leakage Breaker ' . It must be beyond their training . spacesailor
  11. All those electronic gizmo's. I will never use . Not even the radio . My Pajero has the media package and three remotes . Never used them . Perhaps I should remove the batteries. One day . I hate that braking thing , were a wheel has it's brake applied to spin the car in circles , whenever on sand . I was told " remove the fuse " just never found which fuse . Aaspacesailor
  12. I'm toying with the idea of a BEV . But $ 50,000 worth of petrol will last an awful long time ! . Which is something I lack . At $2.00 a litre it is about a full tanker . To tow behind my Pajero. the wife's against it , as she says I'm SKI . My reason is " the huge que " to get cheaper fuel . $1.77 in merrylands Sydney. spacesailor Ps. : no rooftop panels
  13. 40 days and 40 nights . Of rain, according to one book . spacesailor
  14. Steel does burn . An " oxy- lance " ( stee tube ) is used to cut through reinforced concrete , or scrap copper boilers . The steel- tube burns at the end & when air pressure is send through the same tube, it sends molten steel with it . spacesailor https://www.google.com/url sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DvqzJjOjThFc%26pp%3DygUQI294eWhlbHBpbmR1c3RyeQ%3D%3D&ved=2ahUKEwiiq9G4gquKAxUQRWwGHaanDJkQwqsBegQIDxAE&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw2dcvF_AO_dOoXFtGRzd86u
  15. I must be weird!. As I can sleep" almost ' anywhere. even with the ' bedroom TV on . My wife hates that I can just go to sleep .

  17. But! Are they being reported . Three now . The firies , seemed ' nonchalant ' about the one I watched. As if they were used to them , & knew just what to do l . Short burst of water to cool & extinguish. No problems there . spacesailor
  18. The " newest " is least. And the . Oldest the most . Give it time, to see how many ' fall off their roofs ' cleaning those panels. I witnessed one rooftop fire , three houses away .so they can start fires , that could kill people . spacesailor
  19. " Bradwell " 40 years of getting a profit for their investors. Makes for higher retail prices . spacesailor

  21. Petrol generators , I suppose. Sight & sound , helps when you can't see the laser. spacesailor
  22. Not all ! . I hope ! . NRMA gave shares free to it's member's , but also took some back, ( from the NEEDY ) to give to that wealthy CEO . Those shares weren't a gamble, and the dividend helped greatly . spacesailor
  23. Same in Australia. The government wants higher prices , to give them a greater return on that 10% gst tax . the more they rake in , the higher their pay-rate . spacesailor
