    Possible increase of heart attack risk after mRNA vaccine.

    We already have natural solar panels, they are called leaves. So why do you use the man made version? And then there's polio.

    Possible increase of heart attack risk after mRNA vaccine.

    here is a well sourced blurb... The Bible is the holy scripture of the Christian religion, purporting to tell the history of the Earth from its earliest creation to the spread of Christianity in the first century A.D. Both the Old Testament and the New Testament have undergone changes over the...

    Possible increase of heart attack risk after mRNA vaccine.

    "Any unbiased document scholar will agree that the Bible has been remarkably well-preserved over the centuries." This statement is controversial. To wit: the apocrypha.The Roman Catholics omitted texts that reduced their authority. Specifically those where Jesus suggested that the individual did...

    Possible increase of heart attack risk after mRNA vaccine.

    When you study the Pentatuch, the first five books of the Bible, you understand that it is put together by several authors. Further study allows you to identify these authors by their style. It's a composite. So too the New Testament. Now, this is neither an acceptance or a denial of a...

    sorry for the confusion, I meant my panels are at a 45 degree angle. I do not have heaters.

    REFRIGERATOR VS SOLAR POWER

    My fridge uses .3kwh a day. The inverter uses .7kwh per day. But I don't know how much your fridge uses. I was just making the point that you can find more efficient fridges than the spec MichaelK was using in his calculations.

    REFRIGERATOR VS SOLAR POWER

    I've got a 17' fridge that uses about 300 watts/24h according to a kill a watt. The inverter uses twice that.

    How long does it take for snow to melt off your panels?

    My panels are at 45. Snow sliding off depends on the amount and the quality of snow (it is said the Inuit have 15 different names for types of snow.) I concur with the above bit about hours to days to never.

    Get ready for the Price increase

    I have one joke about economists: I'm an economist. I predicted 18 of the last 3 recessions.

    updates? Does the BMS have app communication?

    The Chinese did not Invent Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries.

    IIRC, the researcher who came up with LFP and NICAD is now working on sodium. This would be so cool because the biggest problem with desal plants is the sodium dumped back into the seawater is an environmental disaster.

    First time dipping my toe into DIY solar (or solar of any kind). Off-grid car charging....

    I'll take a swing. The Volt battery is 18.2 kWh. The PV array, if you're really lucky, may spit out 1k. Disregarding losses, you'd need a few days of solid sun, at least, to charge the vehicle. Someone please check my math.

    Update: Received my battery back from big battery yesterday. I am unable to test it properly as I am in the city and the battery is for my off grid house.

    It's a bit of a drag. “why should i make my brain hurt so much learning and building my own battery… i just want to parallel connect a few prebuilt together and go…. wow these BB batteries would get me up and running quick!” My precise thought process. Added bummer for me down the road is that I...

    Big battery shipping department issues

    I, too, am having issues with BB. Got two 12v owl max. One did not work. Went through all the hoops and still no go. I actually drove the unit to their place in Chatsworth. Before I made that horrible drive, they said they would swap it. They gave me the same unit back after about 5 minutes of...
