  1. You'd be Mad to go onto the grid and why would they want you as a customer IF you don't use Much Power? Have you got enough Power to weld? 240 V is a dangerous voltage. 415 more so.

  11. That's true OT but so what? Well perhaps a lot of People don't know that continental Movement (drift) and tectonic plates overlapping has nothing to do with CLIMATE. Volcanic eruptions can alter climate significantly. Nev
  12. You can check the facts on that IF you want to on relative costs. Old Coal is unreliable. That's WELL understood. The Grid infrastructure needs Work no matter what we do. You may be in an area where you nave no choice in who your Provider is. IF you are in a very remote area others will be subsidising you. Every Person with a solar and battery is helping you.. Old Coal was Amortised The costs of setting it up written off long ago because it's now beyond it's useful Life . When it fails it's usually under high Load on a hot day. Backup is costly. because it's inactive till it's needed and has to respond immediately. Battery and Pumped hydro and gas in that order. Nev

  24. Rust changes ACETONE. Genthin (GENERAL Thinner's in) ATF is Ok Best soaked with a sealed lid on it for GRUNGE . This best with things like Ball races. Rust is Fe2O3 or Fe304 and if there's moisture about it will be Hydrated. Lighter coloured. Phosphoric acid converts rust and doesn't remove the Base Metal. . Galvanic protection is the best Coating usually zinc based. Some rust is removed by High frequency Vibrations, Caustic bath with DC current or Molasses
