@rtjeffries @PrinceOf_Darkns @grok And the package had been bent by the courier.

@mcmoggy80840 @BladeoftheS I was being pessimistic. The trend is for batteries to last way longer than was originally thought by the manufacturer.

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@mcmoggy80840 @BladeoftheS No, batteries fail because their capacity degrades. If it holds 100% of rated capacity on day 1, the warranty is generally to 80%. So a 10kWh battery is warranted to hold 8kWh in say 12 years. What we’re finding is that the batteries that were installed 10y ago are holding 95%

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@mcmoggy80840 @BladeoftheS Most modern batteries have a 12 year warranty, and they’re lasting double that

@SpursIdol @au_tom_otive My house was built in 1750, so why do I only need a 7kW heat pump to heat it? The front wall is 8” thick…

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@dHubert_duels @au_tom_otive Remember that prices of solar have come down enormously in the last 5 years. Trade price for a 500W panel is now around $55. They’re cheaper than roof tiles by the square metre.

@TheDromo @javarevisited On second thoughts you do need the row number (actually the pointer to the first row byte) so you can compare the rows in case of hash collision.

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@TheDromo @javarevisited You don’t need the row numbers. Hash each row, put the hash in a binary tree, if it’s already there, then skip the row. If it’s not, it’s unique, stream it out.

@FemaleJaysFan @905hub_ Do you know the difference between a good landing and a great landing? In a good landing all the passengers get to walk away. With a great landing they can also reuse the plane!

Lovely couple driving a monster truck chose to park in the EV spaces “to stop people like you using the electricity for our home” - plenty of empty spaces directly opposite! Bridgemere Garden Centre, perhaps you can help?

@Bbmorg Two things to be careful of - many of the buildings are older than America - don’t be shocked by 3 digit dates on walls.

And you’ll know if it’s summer if the rain is warm.

@twittwose @lukas_ohl @live4footy @DanNeidle You’d have to go back and replace all the millions of them across UK and EU.

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@twittwose @lukas_ohl @live4footy @DanNeidle Meters in the home ev chargers are not all MID certified so not accurate enough to base charging on them.

@Tom1973_1 @PeytonElroy I had a friend who had chemo for 5 years and was hit by a bus and died. They wouldn’t have been hit if they hadn’t taken the advice of those evil doctors

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@LizKershawDJ @janepurdie1 So totally necessary

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@william30726399 @Finumus1 I just did.

Problem in London is that too few people could afford the crazy prices. I sold 18 months ago for 15% less than the value 2 years earlier.

It’s just resetting to what people can afford rather than an investment asset price.

@PorscheGB destination charger has the wrong map location. Please resurvey so users can find it when trying to charge.

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@carlini8 @G_Allen_Live @hosun_chung That’s the one, they will sell to your roofer.

[Bryan Crotaz @BryanCrotaz]

@JamesBeta12 @hosun_chung There are plenty of much cheaper home batteries. Same chemistry, so just as safe
