  • It really depends on where you live. In Australia, fresh water is relatively scarce, and desalination is a difficult and expensive process. Any water used ends up in the ocean or another unusable location.
    .

  • Most electric cars have battery cooling, but the Nissan Leaf doesn't. It works fine until you try rapid charging more than 2 times in one day.

    I suspect that some high performance cars would also have motor and inverter cooling. This would likely not be needed for regular road cars as the motor and inverter don't produce much heat.

  • The heat pump uses a 315L tank. The heat pump only runs during the day, so we either have enough solar power to run it, or cheaper electricity at that time.

    We have run out of hot water a few times, but with even minimal planning it's not really a problem.

    We decided to get a split heat pump and tank (rather than an integrated system) as they tend to be quieter and more efficient. It's barely audible when standing next to it, and provides a great place to sit in summer.

  • I've just replaced a gas stove with induction. It's far better than the gas stove was and I never want to go back.

    Also replaced the gas water heater with a heat pump. The gas bill went way down, and the electricity bill didn't go up.

  • I was looking up my symptoms and google suggested that I could have been in a car crash or mauled by a bear.
    I don't remember either of those happening, so I must have memory loss too.
