On the night of their wedding, the groom took off his trousers and told his new bride to try them on. They dont fit, she said, as the trousers slide down to her ankles again. And never forget it, said the husband. In this relationship, I wear the pants. The woman looked at him for a moment, then began to undr...

So now I am looking at a H200 (...

Hi all, brand new here. We're newly retired and thinking of taking off for a few months soon, maybe 4 or more. I'm just wondering about one issue though. We own our house and I rang the insurance company. I'm told that if we leave it vacant for more than 6 weeks the insurance lapses. And of course if we leave...

Just a quick question to those who have a better understanding of battery electronics than I do.... I have just installed a LiFePO4 Battery System in my van and I am interested in knowing what the ideal resting voltage should be of a 'full' battery. Currently is seems to be settling at 13.3 - 13.5 volts....
