    Simon Reeves is just a nice enough bloke, he goes places and talks to people. He didn't go to uni or anything like that. Why don't you listen just 1 minute to the guy he interviewed, who invented the first commercial modern wind turbine? He is just an engineer, not gone to any fancy uni. He...

    I haven't designed anything. All I do is bolting the stuff together. Richard Thorpe now has a powerful partner who has not only got a successful track record, but also manufacturing and distribution. If they manage to lower the production cost of their GoCycles, which I am sure they can, the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You are right, we can't cure the flu but the jab gives us a chance for a mock fight with the likely versions of the flu in the coming 6 months so we won't die from it or them.

    Trump can't do anything without bending the law, even just a little bit. One of the guys who got the pardon was sentenced to 12 years in prison for bank fraud of 30 million. Trump agreed that was excessive. What does that tell you about his view of bank fraud?

    Most of the stuff trump does through presidential orders are illegal or will be found illegal pretty soon in court. That's why he tries to stop the judges to issue orders against his administration. He has already put one in custody under a dodgy charge of obstruction and harbouring an illegal...

    Trump would point at Article 2 of the constitution and says he has the power to be chief of the army, appoint judges etc so that everybody must obey him, and generally, people around him do just that. They will tell him that he's always right because he is a genius. His cabinet is like a scene...

    Recently, trump ordered staff at the WH to delete transcripts of his speeches, press conferences, TV interviews etc. He must have read some of that and was not happy about it. That's his style. Our leaders tend to be careful with words and rather precise, no repetition,.Trump is rather direct...

    Motor Blown Up?

    At the time that the wago was suggested, I genuinely did not know what the problem was. It's only a little later that Stephen mentioned the white wire.

    Motor Blown Up?

    If I understand correctly, the problem is narrowed down to one small signal wire inside the controller box which forms with the rack battery a continuous box. The box is splashproof and the cables exit through a hole under the saddle. Saneagle has always recommended to solder everything but the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am glad that you engage in factual debate instead of just posting anti net zero videos. Rolls Royce have partnered with Westinghouse, Siemens and Cavendish Nuclear for the design of their SMR.

    Wago Lever-Nut Style (e.g., 221 or 222 series) Have cable retention via the spring or lever clamp. These are designed to grip the wire securely, including stranded and solid conductors. They are reusable and tool-free, which is part of their appeal. Can handle high currents (some rated up to...
