Hopefully with the massive amount of effort going into battery tech, the price continues to come down rapidly, and we also get new technologies coming out that are a bit more eco-friendly

Does the math, math if you get enough Batteries so that you can use a lot of it at night, without much buyback? Or does the high cost of storage not make the math quite math.

Anybody got a good recommendation for Cat Sunscreen?

I've heard good things about Aniwell Filtaclear, but it seems it's out of stock everywhere, and it has been for a while (as when I checked last summer it was out of stock then too).

We're totally new to the whole mortgage thing, but for us, we went with a Mortgage Broker who knocked a bit off the carded rates. Can't quite remember how much it was though, probably somewhere in the 0.30% ballpark.

Don't really know the specific ins and outs of different policys and all that, but really want solar to become more main stream, and with that, hopefully bring the prices down a bit.

Very keen to get some solar in the near future, and would love for some friendlier prices :)

Good weekend for a couple of kiwi sports that I follow closely :)

wow! What a race, what a drive from Carlos Sainz.

Yeah, exactly - will need to do some quick maths :)

I guess even if we only manage a smaller than needed solution, its still something.

Makes it sound really scary. Better do a lil bit more research as to actual risk levels etc.

Geez, did a bit of digging/mixing and all that with a mask on, and it was pretty hard! Better continuing using one when I first open up the bags.

The main constraint is that we don't have a ton of space to put many tanks. I know that they make slimline tanks, but still seems like pretty low volume stuff, which I wonder how long would last with regular watering of our garden over the summer.

Better do some calculations to see what might be possible :)

With Potting Mix or Compost and the risk of Legionnaires Disease, does the risk subside the longer its been spread out on your garden?

Sorry for the late reply.

Yeah, was thinking of something simple - one of those DIY type kits that you attach to your downpipe, and have a few tanks on the side of your house.

Oof. I've been wanting to install some rain water tanks (even just for watering the garden etc.), but haven't had the opportunity to do so yet.

Making me wish I had it sorted by now.

Yeah definitely. I used to live in the middle of Takapuna, and I counted maybe one office building with Solar Panels on their roof :(

Yeah - Went in to Torpedo7 over the weekend to just see what the quality of some of their stuff was like, and they don't even have floor models of most of the stuff they have online.

IRT the spotter bars, I did get into the habit of benching without collars so that in the event I did fail, I would be able to slide the weights off (as I got into the habit of going to the gym at hours where there would be no-one else - though that never happened). Would eventually like to get a full Power Rack, but that's obviously quite a significant investment, and I'd like to start off a little bit smaller than that :)

Interesting with the carpet. You didn't notice any "Pot holes" forming in the carpet where your feet were always landing during lifts?

Was thinking of getting something like this https://solidstrengthequipment.co.nz/solid-strength-squat-rack/, and have that mounted on top of the Platform to keep it secure.

Platform for securing the rack, but also to prevent damaging the carpet too much, and provide a nice base for lifting.

Not particularly humid, has windows and all that, and a heat pump, but it is on the ground floor with a concrete sub, so it does feel a bit more humid compared to upstairs.

Was originally planning on a couple of sheets of ply, and then the rubber floor tiles on top, but was worried about the large contact patch on top of the carpet.

So have been thinking about adding some of those outdoor/wet area flooring tiles that have holes in them, to add some air circulation to the carpet?

When I've had some filament lying out for a while, I usually start drying it atleast a day before.

I use the eSun Dryer as well, and usually start with a _{5 hour dry on Setting 3, and then another 3}5 hour dry right before I plan to print.

Seems to get the job done :)

Ooh, didnt realise that was even available on Lemmy lol - Thank you for that, will come in handy :) And thank you for linking that other thread too
