    Sous Vide Newbie

    You can definitely do a roast too long and ruin the texture. Steaks 2-6 hours no prob. When it comes time to sear I like to pat mine dry with a paper towel first.

    Solar to keep batteries charged

    Sure it's true, that's why you mounted yours to a heat sink.

    Solar to keep batteries charged

    Just an FYI on flexible panels, they’re the least efficient and will degrade the fastest due to heat build up from no air circulation below. Heat is the enemy of output. Although they can still be the best choice in some applications, just understand what you’re getting into and size...

    Solar to keep batteries charged

    Have a look at Renogy stuff on Amazon, panels should be about $1 per watt delivered. Whatever you choose get an MPPT charge controller, they're a game changer compared to the old style PWM's they increase out put dramatically. Mono panels are better than poly's and bypass and blocking diodes are...

    Courtenay-Campbell River Mountain Bike in Fishing

    Wowo is behind a gate with a security shack on it, you may be able to find a different way in if you're creative. It's been a few years since I was at Wolf and like you said it's right by the road, it looked like a garbage dump then. :(

    There is something very, very wrong with today’s music. It just may not be very good

    I like how they managed to list 5 songs/albums from the last 45 years that are still relevant like it’s the deciding factor, not much to brag about! Lol also the source is coming from an industry point of view and it reads like they’re losing market share. No surprise as the gatekeepers...

    Help! Can anyone tune a merc 2.5 motor by Thursday night???

    This, SV is on it. Find the spec for your float height and set it. There’s usually three circuits on a carb, low, mid, and high. The main jet only comes into play when you’re wide open. Its not going to affect your idle. Also the main jet is the biggest passage in the circuits, idle is the...

    Oh interesting, I asked because I noticed the polish writing on the signs in the background of a few of your pics.

    Commander 26 Re Build

    I think the proportions look way better with the top, keep it! People don't have to hang out up there all day every day, great storage and a perfect spot to sit and drink beer on a nice summer evening overnighter.

    INVERTERS..... WHY?

    I don't know they're not that bad. I'll put mine in the tender with a few hundred feet of extension cord, hardly hear it when it gets to the end. If you have to join two cords make sure you use good tape like Scotch 88 to seal the plug.
