    Electrical Consumption

    One thing I am considering making is solar panels hooked to batteries and led lights so that my lighting is sun mostly. O wait i live in seattle and i am looking out side and its cloudy. If only there was a practical way to convert ir to electricity. It will come soon enough.

    Electrical Consumption

    I know Seattles power is hydro power predominantly. However, for me, if i use less then Seattle can sell hydro electricity to "Detroit or Cleveland, etc" which is coal, oil, nuclear, etc. Also, having the Grand Coulee dam, which i have been to and is nice but changes the nature of the river...

    Electrical Consumption

    Sounds good I would love to see you system again. The reason I started the thread wasnt so much of saving money but saving what is involved in producing electricity. The thoughts started when i read an article on how much electricity is consumed even though the device is not "on". For...

    kill the crab!

    This is one of the funniest and best threads ever. I have used the divide and conquer system to catch a a clown. It was still amazing that with nothing in half the tank he was still finding places to hide and and it still took an hour to catch him. My thought is with this crab that you will...

    Where to buy fish?

    Another possibility is you have 15 or 20 good reefers just in Everett and some of them belong to North Sound Reefers. Get the info and come to the next meeting. For a fifteen gallon tank you wont need a lot of fish. Perhaps you can trade within the group. What kind of setup did you have before?

    DIY "LED" build "Linear Design"

    I have a question. If you run or want the same continuous power from the lights do you need to make them dimmable? You mentioned it was cheaper to not have the drivers. So is that a practical approach? I like the idea of leds for longer lasting and powers savings but I am trying to figure...

    The last day of the year 2010

    Do we have a definitive list, article on Aleopathy? I have always wondered about it. Is Carbon the best way to combat it? Or can moving the culprit to be down flow or upflow make a difference, etc?

    Do you think krish will hit 20k posts by the new year?

    It may be from the stress of having to pound out 400 posts in such a short time. Maybe like brett farve the streak is ended due to injury. Thanks for all the great posts and help.
