Afraid that is the fantasy going back to Westinghouse and Edison. The voltage does go through 0 v but it is back up to lethal levels much quicker than nerves or muscles can respond. A full cycle at 50 Hz is 20mS , a half cycle 10mS , and significant voltage from 1mS from crossover. To...

It wasn't a direct connection then.. 230v accros the body , driving say 100 ma will cause all the muscle groups it contacts to contract violently. If a live wire is grasped by the hand, the contraction makes it impossible for the person to let go..if it were on the back of the hand, it would...

In days gone by it was not unusual to dampen down the coal tire with a little pee before retiring for the Night .. not to be recommended with coal effect electric fires...

I had occasion to go to the craigavon TV repair centre, which with Irish logic is in Lurgan. It's a nice operation and does the in warranty repairs for all the major brands and for all Ireland.. how is it going to fare if it involves exporting and importing electronics to and from the EU. ...

Upgrade system... Replacing a system with a different version. System upgrade... Replacing component parts... This is my grandfather's shovel, mind you my father replaced the handle on a few occasions and I replaced the head because it rusted....

...sorry the pesky autocorrect struck again. .. what I think I was trying to say that in travelling the miserable dark dangerous road between Lurgan and Lisburn , I was thinking how with such roads you are not being well served... These are your major population areas and highly loyalist as...

Well welcome back Tommie... Actually I was up your way today . Craigavon and Lisburn. And in the journey between them, and worry information along the miserable roads in the dark. , I was thinking how poorly you and your fellows are being served...

Your wife with her quantum mechanical celtic brain had immediately sussed out all the possibilities and could see.. 1.We have more than one thief in ireland 2.The Gardai being part of a beurocratic organisation will have a fleet of such cars , same brand, same mods, and maybe same colour 3. The...

Well that changes everything. My previous reading was leading me to expect as a worst case some sort of quad tractor...hauling tree trunks up boreens D8vh will no doubt give excellent advice My sense of the NI company you listed , and I might be totally wrong, is that they are battery...

When i see the abuse they receive i wonder if there are any unmarked!!

T.May is perfectly correct in that there will be a difference between EU citizens coming to the UK before and after the transition. But not in a good way. Why would self respecting EU citizens, whose rights are respected in 27 countries choose to go to another country, where it is starkly...

I'm entirely laptop based myself when I sit down on a chair.. otherwise I am laptopless!.

Thanks for the info...did not know of their existence, so good to know. Now your real problem is 1.what kind of vehicle are you intending to electrically power, ? 2. What weight is it ...and you and what weight do you plan to move 3. What type of terrain 4. How many hours usage between...

Carbon would be classified as semiconductor, in the same segement of the periodic table as silicon, however it will never be as good as silicon in respect of doping and intrinsic resistance.. it's poor compared with any of the metals as a conductor about 300 times worse , if memory serves than...

Many of the bottle dynamo sets I used in the past used the frame on what were always steel bikes as a return ....

Not really so.. The arguement about carbon fibre is correct of course but I don't think that weighted much ( pun intended ) on the thnking of early electric bike designers. The aluminium would be ok for conductive purposes, it's not bad compared with copper only 30% worse. The problem is that...

Though much as an Irishman it pains me to say it... The British were probably the best...(of a bad lot),

I think you are being a little disingenuous, just a little. With derestriction, the motor is working harder. That means it will heat up more.. probably not a problem, but the mechanical parts, the reduction gears, the pawls, the washers and the bearings are now getting more revolutions for...

Wealthy people need money even more. Otherwise they won't be wealthy and in any event they have more experience in spending it... those boats dont sell themselves
