Bore water doesn't Lather with soap very well. Nev

There is so many weirdo's about I wouldn't advise anyone to give people a lift. Unfortunately THAT is the world we NOW live in, Way back you Left doors unlocked and left Cars with dodgy Batteries, idling in the street, while you ran into the shop. Nev

I had one meter that wore out and overcharged Immensely. The "Provider" wanted to charge what it read even though they replaced the (very obviously faulty) Meter. Get a good provider IF you have a choice. Nev

I don't mind Mushrooms. The insects eat them pretty Quickly. I don't eat the ones that grow here. Not game. Nev

32 V it is. Nev

OME is in a good Place to Miss out on rain from all directions. Nev

Do it to a copper and you will be transported somewhere. Nev

There's a small division between Genius and Madness. Nev

I'm Not trying to Control your Hobby. Just commenting on practical aspects as I have all along. IF it approximates a "static exhibit " the aesthetics are everything . I thought a great part of your Aim was to Keep costs down? I generally find starting with something good is cheaper in the Long run than resurrecting some rusty Pile of junk.. There's plenty of challenges without adding to them. Nev

Whopper downpour here in the Last Hour Some of my workshop flooded. That will be a day of cleaning up and WD ing. Lots of Lightning. and noise. SOME HAIL. Doggies don't like it. Solar has disconnected. Nev

IS this going to be a TRIKE? Nev

Why do you want all that Power? You can't use it. Mass low down makes it safer. Reverse can be an Electric Motor. How far do you go in reverse? Blip that engine and you will tip the bike up sideways Nev

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. Make sure your compressor unloads for starting or the genset might struggle. Some of those early gensets were 36 V DC. Pretty useless today. Maybe for safety? Nev

In THIS case it's against the LAW.. Generally the Boss can do what he Likes in Industry unless a work contract says otherwise. Like Pilot seniority lists. Nev

She's given her daughter a taxpayer funded job that May draw the crabs. The "Perils of Pauline"? Nev

General statement.....36 cents gives you a Horsepower for 1.25 hours & about $300 per annum keeps you connected. Australia is a Big Place with a lot of wide open spaces to service. Stop whingeing and get on with your life. There's a lot worse things going on out there to be concerned about. Nev

Unless some thing effective is done about it, it will only get worse. Nev

Talk to Scotty. Nev

Avoid Mushroom Clouds. Nev

I don't know, but then you would have to go "out in the Mid-day sun" with the Mad Dog's. and be a POM. Nev

Sorry, I don't even want to open it. I don't DO Facebook either. Nev

GON wouldn't be able to whinge if he did that, and he'd have to have his name changed to HON or CON. If he keeps GON it could be GAY. but I doubt that's on the cards, but I'm not expert there, either.. They don't have to get the electron all the way. You just Push them into a conductor and others Pop out the Other end when you need them (If you are connected) What a great thing ELECTRICIY IS. The most life changing thing we ever Utilised.

It's not Part of my knowledge Base . Eggs make Rotten egg gas. Hydrogen sulphide from memory. You can make that in the science Lab. Nev

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

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
