Découvrez comment créer de la #musique de qualité #professionnelle en un temps record avec #AI #Music #Generator.
Ce tutoriel vous montre comment faire en quelques minutes et clics, sans aucun logiciel à installer.
Gestern hat mir ein sehr rationaler Freund erzählt, dass er einen #Generator angeschafft hat und auch sonstige Vorkehrungen für 2-3 Wochen Autarkie getroffen hat. Natürlich ist es leicht über #Prepper zu lachen, aber irgendwie macht mich das schon nachdenklich. Wie sieht es bei euch aus? Andere Optionen gerne als Antwort! #Umfrage

Yeah, it's quite often. Every generator manufacturer say 100 hours. Here is Generac, one of the big manufacturers (also of whole home generators)

Fire Hazards
• Never store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline,
propane, kerosene, and other flammable liquids should be
stored outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass
safety containers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning
appliance, such as a natural gas water heater in a garage.
• Before refueling the generator, turn it off and let it cool
down. Gasoline spilled on hot engine parts could ignite

NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging
the generator into a wall outlet, a practice known as
“backfeeding.” This is extremely dangerous and presents an
electrocution risk to utility workers and neighbors served by
the same utility transformer. It also bypasses some of the
built-in household circuit protection devices.

Electrical Hazards
Generators pose a risk of shock and electrocution, especially
if they are operated in wet conditions. If you must use a
generator when it is wet outside, protect the generator from
moisture to help avoid the shock/electrocution hazard,
but do so without operating the generator indoors or near
openings to any building that can be occupied in order to
help avoid the CO hazard. Operate the generator under an
open, canopy-like structure on a dry surface where water
cannot reach it or puddle or drain under it. Dry your hands, if
wet, before touching the generator.
4/x
Follow these safety tips to protect against CO poisoning.
• NEVER use a generator inside homes, garages, crawlspaces,
sheds, or similar areas, even when using fans or opening
doors and windows for ventilation. Deadly levels of carbon
monoxide can quickly build up in these areas and can linger
for hours, even after the generator has shut off.
• Follow the instructions that come with your generator.
Locate the unit outdoors and far from doors, windows, and
vents that could allow CO to come indoors and point the
exhaust away from any nearby buildings.
• Install battery-operated CO alarms or plug-in CO alarms
with battery back-up in your home..

New year, new project! Last year someone was throwing out an exercise bikes by the side of the road, so I grabbed it with the idea of turning it into a pedal-power electrical generator. Yesterday I schlepped it into my workshop and I've started on the project in earnest! #DIY #project #generator #RenewableEnergy
@CppGuy One word: #Tetraetyllead
IMHO it'll be inevitable that #Methanol #FuelCell-based #EV|s will be the future simply because:
1.#Lithium is scarce & expensive
2.#refueling will always be faster than #charging
3.#EnergyDensity of Methanol exceeds that of any #battery
4.#FussilFuel #Corporations can simply switchover pumps and flex their #EconomyOfScale and existing #Logistics to flood the market with cheap Methanol even if it has to be made 100% sustainable and without any fossil resources.
5.#EnergyStorage is another problem and #FuelCells can replace both #EmergencyPower systems running if #Diesel as well as the average #gasoline #generator.
Not to mention there needs to be #SystemChangeNotClimateChange and that necessitates way better #PublicTransport, regardless if #Trains, #Trams, #Trolleybuses or #FuelcellBuses (in that order)...
OFC what any #BEVs won't fix is the fact that most particle emissions are #tire #brake #dust...
Good morning, friends.
5 December 2024
The electricity when out last night at about 8 P.M. and I forgot about it until this morning when I heard the generator still running as I let the dogs out ... in case you were wondering who. It is also raining cats and dogs; I know because I opened the door a few minutes ago and a couple of dogs ran inside. The trouble with letting dogs in out of the rain, is that once they get inside the door, they do that shaky thing where the skin on their bodies actually moves tossing loose water everywhere. The trouble with not letting them out is that they can only hold it for so long and then they are going to go.
