i'll check they are 9"-10" what i found tbh the diameter doesn't matter so much, the amount of air they move is pretty much entirely down to power, with cheep fans a lot of them are the same power over a range of diameters the smaller ones just run faster. i used 10" fans because i could...

is use a 235w solar panel on 4x 80w fans wired in series on our green house 24x8 ft i have an mppt battery charger linked on it as well but the battery is connected to the electric fence and some lights not the fans, i run on the theory more sun needs more fan. found the running...

Rental costs. Weekly it seems to 1/6 of purchase cost per week

there is now a mine field of inverters generators and inverter generators. in general sensitive electronics and generators are used together with hopeful caution, as generators especially traditional ones don't exactly have the most stable of outputs, AVR helps this by regulating the output...

I would like to have a go at making some candles, and don't have any wax of our own to experiment with so I'd like to buy some of some one. ideally I'm think I'm ideally looking for a couple of kilos if in the unlikely event your near HR9 I'm happy to collect otherwise it'd have to be posted.

One of them back room journalists tasked with writing clutter to stock pile to send out on slow news days or not reporting days. tbh it’s not news . It’s soposed to be a notable event

guess I'll find out or find a use for them maybe use a few for closing down boxes a bit when moving them up from nuc or something. they were mostly long and narrow strips so couldn't think of much else to do with them but seemed to good for the skip or fire. got a load of 12mm ply offcuts...
