MANY RAIN WORLD SPOILERS AHEAD

yknow, what really are these module things you see attached to iterators?

i always assumed they were steam vents and thus make the torrential rains you experience, as when its rain time, they start steaming. but as ive played through more campaigns and revisited old areas, ive noticed some strange things about them

like whats up with this one on the bottom? why is it cut in half like that?

and sometimes the lighting makes these circle things in the background look like theyre protruding, so I assumed they were just the same steam vent things but viewed face-on, yet in this image (and in a lot of others) the lighting suggests the opposite - they're indentations on the structure. perhaps the vent things can be retracted in/out of the base?

yet here in the outer expanse you can find them on train cars, and the lighting looks like they're protruding, which would either mean the train cars are extremely wide or theres an extreme amount of clearance between the rail and the walls of the tunnel.

and even if it was retracted into its shell, that would mean the shell itself is super wide to be able to house an object that long. also the retractable theory in general starts to fall flat when you never actually see them retract or extrude, which if they are steam vents, then shouldnt they pop out of their shells when its rain time? this makes me think the circles facing head-on arent the same vent modules we see. perhaps they're some sort of "socket" or attachment point for some other component? im not sure.

but anyway, back to the main point. what are these things?

well, an important peice of evidence completely changes everything.

YOU CAN FIND THEM (and the circle background thingies) *INSIDE* OF ITERATOR CANS

(they're in/on moon's can as well, so there doesn't seem to be a difference between gen 1 and gen 3 iterator designs in regards to these modules)

but anyway. why are there steam vents inside of their processors???

and you cant just deduce that they arent steam vents, cus they definitely are (as shown in this video)

but at the same time the ones inside their cans dont produce any steam. or at least, no steam that we can see.

but this leads me to a theory, once you keep in mind another major thing about iterators: they need a shit load of water to function, yet you never see any of the neuronflies, inspectors, or other organisms inside drink. so where the heck is all the water? (besides the lymphatic system)

this makes me think that the steam vents we see inside of iterator structures are indeed steam vents, but the amount of steam they produce is a lot less. i assume they are basically giant humidifiers, which would saturate the air with so much moisture that the neuronflies and what not wouldnt need to "drink" as they would just constantly be absorbing water from the air. the moist air could also improve electrical conductivity between neurons.

so yeah that's my theory! it is kind of uncomfortable to think about the inside of iterator cans being absolutely muggy and miserable from the extreme humidity, but it makes sense knowing that being inside an iterator is basically like being inside a giant living organism's body; of course it's gonna be wet and slimy in there. it would also explain how the water pumped through the lymphatic conduits gets distributed to all the neurons and other purposed organisms - instead of having a separate pipe connecting every little creature to the water supply, you just saturate the air with it so they can "wirelessly" get water!

gn robot reader/ f engineer doing repairs

1.9k words nothing explicit just flirty

--

Your protocols stipulated that you were to report to a human team member if you required repair or maintenance. You had an entire diagnostic system dedicated to running those checks. But ‘Requiring Repair’ is an incredibly subjective term.

It could be argued that a car approaching the recommended oil change date ‘Requires Repair’, or a car that had impacted a light pole perpendicularly and folded around it, crushing most remaining components, ‘Requires Repair’.

You had neither of these problems. You were having temperature regulation difficulties. You could even still regulate your temperature most days. It was just the occasional overheat that teetered on the edge of a forced shut down.

Obviously you've tried all the software fixes, limiting your background processes in the new summer weather, deleting some new programs you picked up recently in case they were too much strain. You even stopped wearing clothes entirely. It wasn't as though you had anything to hide, you were just a machine. You didn't need to sit on the couch in the break room next to your human coworkers. Cloth was an unnecessary use of resources and the energy that you'd have to redirect to keep yourself cool.

You knew what the last option was obviously. You could clear your external vents without too much trouble, but you didn't have authorization to check your internal fans on your own. That was a repair and had to be reported to a Human Team Member.

They would have to open your casing and see the issue and manually clean your fans. You would have to lie down immobilized on the build table like you had for weeks when they were first moving your program into your current body.

You didn't need a repair or maintenance, so you were fine for now, but once a malfunction was Actually occurring you would enter your Survival Protocol where all nonessential functions would be suspended until a repair occurred. This would, in all probability, be… unpleasant. You intended to, if possible, avoid this situation.

So late one night, long after your coworkers’ shifts ended, you turned down the temperature on the environmental controls in the main break room as low as they would go. You spent the minutes, as the air around you cooled, programming in a two percent efficiency decrease in the coolers for the coming week to compensate for the extra energy usage tonight.

You didn't need the lights or environmental controls, so they were usually deactivated during your coworkers' off hours. Tonight you would need both. Before you turned the lights on you took over the data stream from the security cameras in the room and played the video from last night.

You flicked on the lights and made your way to your improvised workstation. You had a repurposed office chair, a non-electric flat head screwdriver (rudimentary, but it wouldn’t set off your sensors the way unauthorized electric tools would), and a can of compressed air.

You settled backwards in the office chair, the front of your casing pressing into the backrest, your posterior maintenance panel facing the deactivated camera. You picked up the current video output from the camera, dropping the visuals from your eyes. Like this you could look down over yourself and see the seams on your back where you closed. Your vent appeared clear of dust externally at least. 

That was a comfort, it would have been humiliating to be walking around trailing dead skin cells and lint behind you.

You could feel the increased processing already raising your temperature, but the cold air was doing its job. This would be fine, if you used manual tools your internal sensors wouldn't classify this a repair. You thought. It was the best theory you had.

So, bending your arms at an angle that you knew from experience frightened your human coworkers, you started trying to gently pry up the panel. A warning took over your visual data for a moment, marking the risk of panel damage. You did not let out a low growl of frustration, that would be a poor use of resources at the present moment. The sound you made was unrelated to the warning that you dismissed impatiently. 

You tried another spot that seemed to have more of an edge you could slip the screw driver beneath and began again.

Finally finding enough grip, you began applying force… Just as the break room door slid open with a hiss. The surprise caused your calculated angle to redirect and sent the screw driver skittering with force across your back panel leaving behind a long silver scratch through your paint. You focused the camera on the door and saw her.

Her usual coveralls wer slipped off her shoulders and tied at the waist, leaving her in the sleepless undershirt. Her hair was tied up out of her face like she had been working on something.

"Team Lead," You greeted quickly, trying to simultaneously hide the screw driver, stand up, pick up your own visual data again, and drop the camera. In the end, you managed to do none of these but the last. The loss of visual data sent you tripping back into the rolling chair as you tried to push out of it, forcing you to steady yourself with both hands or end up on the floor . Thereby dropping the screw driver to the floor instead, in all likelihood, directly into her view.

"You can call me Dial," She reminds you, "I’m begging you to just call me Dial honestly." She had told you this many times before when the two of you were working together.

Finally you manage to get your eyes back.

"So what are you up to in here?" She asked, she had already made her way across the room to kneel for the screwdriver.

"Up to?" You say, buying time pretending to not recognize the turn of phrase.

"What are you doing?" She clarifies easily with none of the time consuming mocking others might have employed.

"I was..." Your mind spins with possible replies but the clock ticks down too fast leaving only a look of understanding on Dial's face as she spots the can on the table beside you.

"Right, you've been having an overheating issue right? Did you want a hand?"

You stilled. No you did not, but Dial was chief engineer on your development. If she declared it time for a repair that would be enough to put you in maintenance mode.

Coldly you say, "It is past working hours. Your assistance is not required."

"Yeah, of course, I meant more like... off the record? A hand, between friends?"

You zoomed in on her face trying to understand the expression there. Her pulse was a little fast and it looked as if she was chewing the inside of her cheek. Was she nervous?

"Off the record?" You repeated hesitantly.

"Not a repair. Just," She seemed to think for a moment, "exploratory observation of your internal components. If any impromptu tasks are performed and you want them logged for your database later I could do so at that point."

Her wording was so careful, carrying with it a complete awareness of what had been written into your code by the programmers on the team in early days.

"Exploratory observation would be acceptable," You agreed reluctantly.

Relief crossed her face, "Great! Great. Alright you- you should sit down, you're gonna need to be still. I've never opened you up when you're awake before. I don't want to risk jostling anything important while you're standing and could hit your head."

"Yes," you lowered yourself back into the chair and she circled behind you, tugging on her gloves. You glanced back as she dragged a chair over to sit behind you, then resettled facing forward. You heard her reach into her pocket where you knew she kept a small collection of electric tools.

Your casing warmed a few degrees where she placed her hand against it to steady you. There was a tap and a small tug as she opened you up.

"Did you want to pick up the camera feed again?" She said softly, she was very close behind you.

"How did you know about that?" You asked.

"Wouldn’t be the first time. Your not the most subtle. Just because you refuse to call me anything except ‘Team Lead’ doesn't change the fact that we've been friends for nearly two years. You always drop the visuals from your eyes when you need a wider angle. Of course you would do it for this."

“Ah…” Hesitantly you picked up the security cam again and watched as she carefully set your scratched panel aside on the ping pong table beside you.

She clicked her tongue, “Oh, I see why you’ve been having a hard time regulating.”

You fan kicked up in speed at this. 

“Whoa hey, easy there, I gotcha,” Her free hand landed across the side of your torso, your sensors were very aware of the pressure of her hand moving up and down your side thoughtlessly as she leaned in to look over your components.

“Alright well, nothing for it but to start with the compressed air and then see where we're at,” She decided, picking up the can next to you, “This might be a little chilly. Tell me if you need me to ease up.”

“I'll be-” !

A surprised chirp left you as sudden temperature alerts startled through you. 

“Hmm?” She said. Tone: Playful.

“I underestimated the temperature difference,” you admitted stiffly, feeling the difference in the way your fan was moving already.

Her feet were out in front of her, her ankles pressing against yours. Another shot of cool air came and you felt her gloved hand delicately reach inside you to move aside a bundle of wires that sat in the way of the angle she needed.

“Y-” You tried, but failed as sensory data registered from the wires she was moving, “You’re here later than usual.”

“Yeah well, I've been working on something for you. Of the clock.”

You wanted data on her facial expression. Her back was turned on your camera.

You tried to search for the right phrase. You wanted to know what she was working on but was that rude?

“You can ask,” She confirmed.

“What are you working on?”

“New ankles that, if I do it right, shouldn’t need to be replaced every three months from sand damage.”

!!! Ah. That was. Well that was very nice of her. 

“Thank you.”

“‘Course. Anything to reduce table time right?” Tone: Compassionate.

“Right.”

“There you go,” She said, setting down the can, “Your internal temp is dropping already.” The backs of her fingers pressed against the still warm side of your processor. You went very still, trying to force your fan not to speed up and give you away. Her fingertips trailed lightly across the ports and withdrew.

You gave no sign of the disappointment that flared through you as she settled the part of your casing back in place, you sensors coming back online in that panel as she brushed one last touch across the silver mark that ran across your back now.

“We- we could,” You stopped. Letting your systems settle to stop the halting manner of your words.

“Do this again?” She asked, slipping her screwdriver back into her pocket, “Just you and I?” Tone: Hopeful.

“It would be nice,” You agree.

What Is A Deep Cycle Battery? (A Closer Look 2023)

Most electric golf carts have deep-cycle batteries. It is, therefore, important for golf cart owners to understand the term deep-cycle battery so they can maintain their carts properly.

In any off-grid or renewable energy system, a deep-cycle battery is a crucial component. Long-term power storage applications often use these batteries. The purpose of this article is to explain deep-cycle batteries, their types, uses, and charging methods.

What Is A Deep Cycle Battery?

Battery deep cycle units are designed to be discharged to a greater extent, usually up to 50% or more of their capacity. These batteries provide continuous and reliable power. 

A deep cycle battery’s depth of discharge (DOD)is important because it determines how much capacity is used during a single discharge. When a battery is fully discharged, its DOD is 100%. These deep-cycle batteries can easily handle the deep discharge of 80%-100%. 

Monitoring the state of charge (SOC) of the battery is also important since it indicates its current capacity.

There are different types of deep-cycle batteries— each having its own advantages and disadvantages. Here are some common ones:

Flooded Lead-Acid

Gel and AGM 

Lithium-Ion

Deep Cycle vs. Starting Battery

The purpose of starting batteries, also called cranking batteries, is to provide a quick burst of energy to start an engine. These batteries have many thin plates, which provide a high current for a short time. These batteries are not designed to be deeply discharged and then recharged. It can damage the battery and shorten its lifespan if you do so.

On the other hand, deep-cycle batteries are designed to be charged and discharged repeatedly. These batteries have thicker plates, enabling them to provide steady energy over a longer period of time.

One of the main differences between deep-cycle batteries and starting batteries is their construction. A starting battery is designed to deliver a large amount of current for a short period of time. In contrast, a deep-cycle battery provides a lower amount of current for a longer duration.

Another difference between deep-cycle batteries and starting batteries is their state of charge. The state of charge of starting batteries must always remain high, while deep cycle batteries can be discharged to a lower charge without deteriorating.

How To Tell If A Battery Is A Deep Cycle

The following ways can help you identify a deep-cycle battery:

Check the Label: Battery labels should indicate whether they are deep-cycle batteries. Look for terms like “deep cycle,” “marine,” or “recreational.”

Look at the Size: Deep cycle batteries tend to be larger and heavier than regular car batteries. Additionally, they have thicker inner plates that can withstand deep discharges.

Check the Amp-Hour Rating: The amp-hour rating indicates how much energy a battery can hold. Compared to regular car batteries, deep cycle batteries have a higher amp-hour rating.

Look for “Deep Cycle” Features: Deep cycle batteries usually have thick plates, reinforced posts, and special separators that improve performance.

Batteries labeled as “deep cycle” are not all the same. The capacity and lifespan of some batteries may be higher than those of others, so it is important to choose the right battery for your specific application.

Types Of Deep Cycle Battery

A wide range of deep-cycle batteries is available on the market, each with its own unique characteristics and advantages. The following are the most common types of deep-cycle batteries:

Flooded Lead Acid Batteries

The most common deep-cycle battery type is the flooded lead acid battery. While affordable and reliable, they need regular maintenance to perform at their best. These batteries have a liquid electrolyte that can spill when tipped or damaged.

Sealed Lead Acid Batteries

The sealed lead acid battery is similar to the flooded lead acid battery but without the need for regular maintenance. The batteries in this category are commonly used in emergency lighting systems and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

Gel Batteries

Unlike liquid batteries, gel batteries use a gel electrolyte instead of a liquid electrolyte. The batteries are maintenance-free and last longer than flooded lead-acid batteries. A gel battery is commonly used in renewable energy systems and marine applications.

Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) Batteries

An AGM battery is also a sealed lead acid battery but uses a fiberglass mat to absorb the electrolyte. As a result, they are more resistant to vibration and shock than other types of batteries. AGM batteries are commonly found in RVs, boats, and backup power systems.

Lithium Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries are modern deep-cycle battery that offers several advantages over traditional lead acid batteries. Battery life is longer, lightweight, and can be discharged deeper without damage. However, they are also more expensive and require special charging devices.

What Are Deep Cycle Batteries Used For

The deep-cycle battery is commonly used in applications that require a reliable and steady power source for a long time. The following are some common uses for deep-cycle batteries:

Solar and wind power systems

Golf carts and electric vehicles

Boats and marine applications

RVs and campers

Backup power systems for homes and businesses

Telecommunications and UPS systems

Deep Cycle Battery Lifespan

The lifespan of a deep cycle battery depends on several factors, including its type, depth of discharge, and charging method. Deep-cycle batteries can last between 4 and 10 years with proper maintenance and usage. Although lithium-ion batteries can last up to 15 years but are more expensive than lead-acid batteries.

How To Charge A Deep Cycle Battery

Charging a deep cycle battery correctly is essential to ensure its longevity and optimal performance. Different charging methods will be used depending on the battery type and charging system. Charge deep-cycle batteries using a charger that is specifically designed for them and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Undercharging or overcharging a deep-cycle battery can significantly shorten its lifespan.

Choose the Right Charger: Select a charger specifically designed for deep-cycle batteries. Using a regular car battery charger can damage a deep-cycle battery.

Check the Voltage: Use a multimeter to test the battery’s voltage before charging. If the voltage is below 12 volts, you should use a trickle charger to slowly increase the voltage before using a regular charger.

Connect the Charger: Connect the charger according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure you connect the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals correctly.

Set the Charge Rate: Select a charge rate that matches the battery’s specifications. To avoid damaging the battery, charge it at a slower rate.

Monitor the Charging Process: Monitor the charger while charging the battery. If the battery starts to get hot, stop the charging process and let the battery cool down before continuing.

Disconnect the Charger: Disconnect the charger once the battery is fully charged. It is important not to overcharge the battery since it can damage it and reduce its lifespan.

To properly charge a deep-cycle battery, follow the abovementioned steps. Failure to do so can damage the battery and reduced performance. 

Conclusion

The deep cycle battery plays an important role in off-grid and renewable energy systems, boats, RVs, and other mobile devices. The various types of batteries are designed to provide a reliable and steady power source over an extended period, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Investing in the right deep-cycle battery for your application and charging it correctly will ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Electrical engineer with experience in designing wiring systems for trucks (and similar applications) here.

Look, I loathe Elon Musk as much as the rest of y’all, and I think the Cybertruck is an ugly-ass shitshow with an assortment of other problems, but the information here is isn’t really accurate to how this system works. Which isn’t surprising, considering that cybrtrkguy seems to be completely misunderstanding the way this whole thing gets wired up.

A typical motor vehicle has a central controller. Everything else gets fed back to it through wires that are usually bundled into harnesses depending on what part of the vehicle it’s coming from. For example, your brake lights, backup camera, rear blinkers, and everything else on the back of your car will have its wiring sent back through a harness all the way to the front of the car, where the aforementioned controller is. (It’s actually a bit more complicated than that, but that’s the basic idea.)

For the Cybertruck, Tesla replaced the main controller with a network of smaller, localized controllers; with a main harness to facilitate communication between the controllers (and, of course, send power to the local controllers/distribution boxes to distribute as needed).

As someone who’s had to design, work on, and troubleshoot electrical systems for vehicles and larger diesel engine-based power systems…this isn’t a terrible idea; in fact, I can see the appeal of it. In addition to the cost savings that comes from reducing the amount of wiring needed to make the truck work, they’ve also made it so that any problems that arise are localized - that is, if something goes wrong with the components in your passenger-side door, all of the reworking and rewiring will take place inside the door itself. There’s no need to have to trace wires all the way to the front of the truck, get under the hood, pull panels off the dashboard, etc.; all the work you’re doing is in one place. I would think that, for similar reasons, manufacturing would be simpler. (Ironically, the criticism of this system having a single point of failure is backwards - by spreading control of individual systems across multiple networked controllers, they’ve spread out the possible points of failure.)

Granted, I still think the Cybertruck is a dumpster fire, but not because of the wiring.

What is an Electric Cycle – A Complete Guide

Electric cycles, or e-cycles, have become a game-changer in the world of transportation. Combining the simplicity of a traditional bicycle with the innovation of electric power, these cycles make commuting, exercising, and exploring more enjoyable and accessible. If you’re curious about the best electric cycles and how they work, this guide will cover all the basics to get you started.

What is an Electric Cycle?

An electric cycle is essentially a bicycle equipped with an electric motor, a battery, and sometimes a throttle. These components work together to provide assistance as you pedal, making your ride smoother and less strenuous. E-cycles come in various styles, including city bikes, mountain bikes, and hybrid models, so there’s something for everyone.

At its core, an electric cycle still functions like a regular bike. You can pedal, change gears, and steer as you would on any bicycle. However, the added electric motor gives you a boost when needed. This boost can make it easier to climb hills, travel longer distances, or commute without breaking a sweat.

Key Components of an Electric Cycle

Understanding the main parts of an electric cycle can help you appreciate how it works:

Electric Motor: The motor is the heart of an e-cycle. It provides the power to assist your pedaling. Motors are usually located in one of three places: the front hub, the rear hub, or the mid-drive (near the pedals). Mid-drive motors are popular for their balance and efficiency, especially on hilly terrains.

Battery: The battery powers the motor and is usually rechargeable. Most e-cycles use lithium-ion batteries, which are lightweight, durable, and efficient. The battery’s capacity determines how far you can ride on a single charge, often referred to as the “range.” Depending on the model, ranges can vary from 20 to over 100 kilometers.

Pedal Assist System (PAS): This system detects your pedaling and provides motor assistance based on your effort. You can often adjust the level of assistance, from low for a light boost to high for maximum support.

Controller: The controller acts as the brain of the e-cycle, managing the interaction between the motor, battery, and PAS. Some models also have a display screen to show speed, battery level, and other data.

Throttle (Optional): Some e-cycles include a throttle, allowing you to power the bike without pedaling. This feature can be useful for quick bursts of speed or when you need a break from pedaling.

Benefits of Using an Electric Cycle

Electric cycles offer numerous advantages, making them appealing to a wide range of users:

Eco-Friendly Transportation: E-cycles are a sustainable alternative to cars or motorbikes. They produce zero emissions, helping to reduce your carbon footprint.

Cost-Effective: Compared to owning a car or using public transport regularly, e-cycles are a more affordable option. Charging the battery costs far less than filling up a gas tank. Additionally, you can find models to fit a range of budgets, making the electric bike price another factor that attracts buyers.

Improved Health: While the motor provides assistance, you still need to pedal, which means you get exercise. E-cycles can encourage you to stay active without overexertion.

Convenience: Whether you’re commuting to work, running errands, or exploring new trails, an e-cycle makes the journey quicker and less tiring. You’ll also avoid traffic jams and parking hassles.

However, with the inclusion of electricity in toys, potential safety hazards arise, making it essential for manufacturers to ensure their products comply with global safety standards.

Electrical toys testing lab play a crucial role in maintaining global product safety by evaluating whether electrical toys meet stringent safety requirements. These labs are responsible for testing a variety of toy aspects, such as electrical components, materials, durability, and compliance with international safety regulations. This blog will explore the role of electrical toys testing labs in ensuring the safety of toys worldwide and the importance of their contributions to product safety.

1. The Importance of Electrical Toys Testing

Electrical toys, such as battery-operated dolls, electronic games, remote-controlled cars, and interactive robots, offer children exciting and engaging experiences. However, these toys also introduce certain risks that can pose serious harm if not tested thoroughly. Key risks include electrical shocks, overheating, short circuits, fires, choking hazards, and exposure to hazardous chemicals.

Testing electrical toys is not just a regulatory requirement but an essential process to prevent injury and ensure the toys are safe for children to use. Testing labs assess multiple safety features, such as the integrity of the electrical wiring, the quality of materials used, and the functionality of electrical components, to prevent accidents and comply with global safety standards.

2. Global Standards for Electrical Toys Testing

Different countries and regions have established rigorous safety standards for toys to ensure that they are safe for children. Some of the most prominent global standards include:

ASTM F963 (U.S.): The ASTM F963 standard, developed by ASTM International, is one of the most widely recognized safety standards for toys. This standard covers electrical toys, ensuring they do not pose electrical hazards, are free from choking hazards, and comply with flammability and material safety requirements.

European EN 71 (EU): The EN 71 standard is a series of European standards covering toy safety. It includes guidelines for electrical toys' electrical safety, material safety, and performance.

ISO 8124 (Global): The ISO 8124 standard, issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), provides guidelines for toy safety across various regions, including electrical safety tests, mechanical testing, and chemical safety evaluations.

Chinese GB Standards: The Chinese government also has toy safety standards (GB 6675) that include specific requirements for electrical toys to ensure they meet the country's safety regulations.

Electrical toys testing labs help manufacturers comply with these standards, ensuring their products meet the legal requirements for different markets worldwide. By following the relevant standards, these labs guarantee that electrical toys are safe for children to use, minimizing the risk of injuries and accidents.

3. Key Areas of Focus in Electrical Toys Testing

Electrical toys testing labs perform extensive checks to ensure that the toys meet safety standards. Some of the critical areas of focus during the testing process include:

a. Electrical Safety

One of the main concerns with electrical toys is the risk of electric shocks, burns, and fires. Testing labs evaluate the electrical components to ensure they are safe for children. This includes checking the voltage and current levels of toys to ensure they are within safe limits. Toys that use batteries, plug-in adapters, or rechargeable power sources undergo testing to ensure that electrical parts are adequately insulated and protected.

Testing labs also inspect the integrity of wiring, battery compartments, and connectors to ensure that there are no exposed wires that could cause electrical shocks. Any defective components, such as malfunctioning switches or loose connections, are identified and corrected during testing to prevent accidents.

b. Flammability Testing

Toys that contain electrical components are often made from materials like plastic, rubber, and fabric. These materials could pose a fire hazard if not properly tested for flammability. Electrical toys testing labs evaluate the materials used in the toy to ensure they meet flammability standards. Toys must be tested to confirm that they do not catch fire easily or contribute to the spread of flames.

Flammability testing is especially critical in regions where the risk of fire-related incidents is high. Labs simulate various conditions to test the durability of materials in the presence of heat, ensuring the toy does not overheat or ignite during regular use.

c. Battery Safety and Overheating

Many electrical toys rely on batteries to function. While batteries are generally safe, improper handling, poor design, or faulty manufacturing can lead to battery leaks, overheating, or even explosions. Electrical toys testing labs perform various tests to ensure that batteries are safely enclosed and do not pose a risk of leaking or overheating.

Battery compartments are checked to ensure they are secure and childproof. Overcharging, overheating, and potential leakage scenarios are tested to guarantee the safety of both the toy and its users. Testing labs also simulate different conditions, such as temperature changes, to assess how batteries perform under stress.

d. Small Parts and Choking Hazards

Electrical toys often include small parts, such as screws, battery covers, and removable components. These small pieces can pose choking hazards, particularly for younger children who might accidentally swallow them. Testing labs are required to perform choking hazard tests to ensure that small parts cannot be easily detached from the toy and swallowed.

Using international standards, such as the ASTM F963 choking hazard test, labs assess the toy’s design to ensure that it is safe for children, especially those under three years old. This testing is crucial to preventing injuries caused by small parts.

e. Toxicity and Chemical Safety

Some electrical toys may contain harmful chemicals, such as lead, phthalates, or other toxic substances, especially in the paint, plastics, or wiring. Testing labs are responsible for checking that these toys are free from harmful chemicals and meet the legal limits for toxic substances as specified by standards like ASTM F963 and ISO 8124.

By conducting chemical safety tests, labs help ensure that electrical toys are safe for children and comply with regulations that limit the presence of harmful chemicals.

4. How Electrical Toys Testing Labs Contribute to Global Product Safety

Electrical toys testing labs are instrumental in ensuring the safety of electrical toys on a global scale. These labs provide comprehensive testing services that allow manufacturers to evaluate their products for safety and compliance with international standards. Here's how these labs contribute to global product safety:

"Digital displays for appliances are one thing" -- NOPE. If a device can't operate efficiently using 7-segment displays and some individual dim lights, it's wasting conflict minerals and diminishing our helium reserves that are already suffering pretty hard.

You wanna see three things that are currently militarizing me? Here's the first one: "Smart" screens on retail store fridges!

Walgreens installed these full-length digital screens on every single fridge and freezer in some of their stores. Do not ever look at something like this and think, "Wow that must have been expensive," cuz the $$ isn't even the main issue. This wastes SO MANY RAW MATERIALS, SO MUCH ELECTRICITY, SO MUCH TIME. And they give you NO INFORMATION. Literally every piece of information on this screen could have been achieved the same way it always has: by looking in the fridge through the glass that was replaced by this screen.

The second is electronic price tags:

That's "eInk," the technology that they made for the original Amazon Kindle, put into a tiny little device whose only job is to tell you the price of an item. Every single one of these is also running on its own proprietary bidirectional wi-fi connection so that the management can update them remotely and they can actually talk back to the server. And of course they have to be able to be placed anywhere, so... they run on battery. All of them do. Every single one of these has a fucking battery. So that means we're wasting all the material to produce them, AND all the material to power them, AND THE ONLY ADVANTAGE THEY GIVE YOU IS THE ABILITY TO HAVE FEWER PEOPLE on your POG staff, which means these things are actuall a continuation of the self-serve checkout and the snooping robots, throwing the raw materials of Earth at a problem instead of paying people for work to increase profits.

The third thing is electronic derailleurs:

You might think to yourself, "Surely this is just for an eBike, right?" Which I have my own feelings on eBikes but they're nothing compared to this. The derailleur of a bicycle is the device that changes the gears. The way they traditionally work is there's a set of springs that are maneuvering the arm of the derailleur to reposition the chain in line with one of the sprockets, and that is controlled with cable tension that you adjust with your shifter. But an electric derailleur is motorized, and either has its own battery or is connected to a central battery (on an eBike it'd be the bike's battery, but on non-eBikes it's just one central battery that all your electric components share). What's more, most of these electronic derailleurs are wireless! There are a couple of interesting accessibility use-cases for these, and if you are literally on the top-of-the-line bicycle in a for-real, have hopes for the Tour de France kind of fucking bike race, then I can understand you wanting one because they do in fact shift like a dream. But if you're not one of these two cases, then FUCK YOU if you FOMO your way into buying one of these. There is no god damn way for any bike shop to service these parts. If they fail, they are either going to be sent back to their manufacturer (probably not) or thrown the fuck away. They are UNBELIEVABLY wasteful, and working alongside the eBike towards turning bike shops into weird little electric car shops.

Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.

True or False.....Yes.

There is an effect where you see a news item, or blog or some source of information and you believe it, and maybe you shouldn't. In Hi-Fi / audiophilia these are equipment reviews. This or that new product is better than what came before or "is worthy of consideration. "

The author Michael Crichton coined a term Gell-Mann Amnesia.

Wiki-doodle says it very well:

Gell-Mann amnesia effect to describe the phenomenon of experts reading articles within their fields of expertise and finding them to be error-ridden and full of misunderstanding, but seemingly forgetting those experiences when reading articles in the same publications written on topics outside of their fields of expertise, which they believe to be credible. He explained that he had chosen the name ironically, because he had once discussed the effect with physicist Murray Gell-Mann, "and by dropping a famous name I imply greater importance to myself, and to the effect, than it would otherwise have."

It is a lovely irony that you see something and think this is total rubbish, then believe something on the next page. The idea is people who write or speak with some authority are often wrong.

When I was new to this whole thing I read "The Absolute Sound Magazine." Up till then I knew almost nothing about equipment, but did have preferences for music, often loud. The main benefit of that magazine was to show me there was a world out there of better stuff.

TAS claimed to be better as it was more pure and free from conflict of interest compare to all the "other" mags that had to accept advertisements to survive. Advertisements from the companies they reviewed. Oh evil, oh corrupt!

They rapidly went down a rabbit hole of unobtainable things and black magic voodoo accessories. Oh and had to abandon the purity and accept ads from companies as you gotta pay the bills.

Later I came to realize the basis of their editorial position was total bullshit. Their reference was real live performance in front of you the audience. That being a concert hall, or jazz club, or recital hall or whatever. Bullshit because jazz clubs use PA systems of vastly varying quality, concert hall sound different from every seat, and even a violin sounds different depending on how it is facing relative to your ears. Several major venues had really bad acoustics back then.

Recordings sound different by the place they are done, the microphones used, the skill of the engineer. Then claiming you could make a recording studio sound like a concert hall depending on the equipment you use in your home is really silly. There are precious few recordings made in concert halls and if there is no audience the sound is very different. You are trying to nail ice cream to a wall.

As I got more experienced I found issues with almost every theory and approach to playing music from recordings. Everything was wrong in some way. I honed in on the idea of simple quality. Oh and simplicity. I liked Audio Research equipment, for example, as it is very well made and uses premium parts. The interiors were pretty.

Look under the cover of a Harmon Kardon Citation II some time.

I also learned from personal experience how something works and actually sounds. I heard the voice of a device. I heard sounds in my system that some reviewer could only hear with a particular type of wire in his system and mine did not have wires like that. Doubts became permanent.

But I still read reviews to see what the new things are out there. I am amazed that people can spend so much money on things that are not actually better, just different.

My opinion is basic equipment from the 80s and 90s is really as good as it ever was to be. The 50s and 60s were climbing a hill. New components like better transistors were being invented and used. Electric cars were not made practical by certain batteries, but by high power semi-conductors that make big motors easy to control. That happened in the 90s and trickled into cars from industrial power controls. Those things are actually huge low frequency amplifiers.

Now the hi-fi world is divided into tribes that adhere to one or more dogmas. It is good if it has a vacuum tube. It is good if it is pure analog. It is good if it is pure digital. It is good if it sounds the way I like it.

I just like good stuff.

This is especially dangerous cause of how cheaper and cheaper parts for everything mechanical/electrical get. I work for a company that makes car parts. Really. REALLY big company, for really, really big "cars". Said company is in the phase of "saving money" for past few years. Hence at the moment almost half of our parts are made from cheap mix of different components, mostly aluminum and cheap mix of plastic. Before our parts lasted decades (if used properly) before they started being faulty. Nowdays? I won't give them more than few years, they push us more (especially after we merged with other company), we are underpaid for our skills and type of work, we work on faulty equipment all the time, parts are crap. I won't get into detail of what is happening to those components on the production line.

Point being. If you have accident on the road, it will be on you, not because something happened when 10ton vehicle smashed into you because it broke down randomly on the highway.

Elon is trying to do everything to save his own company, hence this ridiculous thing. But it will affect every other company that is making your car/tv/toaster.

Only plus is that our main branch is based in europe, so the us consumer protection bureau has no meaning, cause whole company uses eu consumer rules, even if warehouse is somewhere outside of eu. Cause we still have "some" kind of standards.

Demand

The main drivers for the thermoelectric generator market are energy efficiency and the demand for waste heat recovery. Industrial sectors such as energy generating and intense industries produce a great deal of heat that is mostly wasted. TEGs are used to capture this wasted heat and convert it to electricity; electricity that can be recycled within the process or to power security lighting, etc. The increasing concern over energy saving and the improved standards on limited emission to the surrounding and sustainable practices also put pressure on the industrial sectors to go for sustainable technologies such as the TEGs.

Also, an increase in the demand for electric vehicles or EVs is another factor that has led to the high growth in the TEG market. In EVs, TEGs can harvest heat from the engines or batteries and convert it into useful electrical energy thus increasing efficiency and range. The shifting trend toward decreasing greenhouse emissions and increased use of cleaner transportation solutions also contributes to the high demand in the automobile industry for thermoelectric generators.

Another important factor that is influencing the growth of the market is remote power generation. TEGs have very high efficiency and no mechanical components; they can be utilized in variable applications like remote control, off-grid systems like sensors, telecommunication systems, and space travel applications. Due to the possibilities of the TEGs’ work in severe and solitary conditions, they could become quite popular among the providers of remote energy.

Applications

The major application of thermoelectric generators is attributed to diverse production industries because they are used to generate electricity from waste heat. The automotive sector is one of the significant consumers of TEGs, especially in exhaust systems to increase fuel economy. A growing number of cars come equipped with TEGs installed to extract heat from the exhaust system and use it to generate electric power and lower fuel consumption. This has become most critical given the current changing nature of making cars through the adoption of sustainable technologies such as hybrid and electrical cars.

In industrial applications, motorcycle generators are used for heat recovery in factories and industries, power stations, and oil refineries. Tap These Getaways operate these facilities that venture into wasting energy, expending significant amounts of money in power usage, and producing greenhouse gas emissions. Due to the recent shift of focus on energy conservation and costs in the industrial sector, TEGs prove to be an optimal solution.

These devices are also applied in renewable energy generation, whereby the incorporation of TEGs into solar panels enhances overall conversion efficiencies of energy. Further, the TEGs have applications in space programs as well as defense systems through power supply to space crafts, satellites, and unmanned air vehicles in severe conditions. As such, they can be used in applications where constant power is needed without many trips to the maintenance shop.

As for consumer electronics, portable devices, wearable devices, and IoT devices represent the main areas to which TEGs apply more frequently. With the invention of self-charged electronics TEGs present a way to power devices that need only a small but constant charge.

Cost

Since its inception, the major concern that has affected the thermoelectric generator market is the relatively high cost of manufacturing the generators and the materials used. The efficiency of TEGs very much depends on the choice of thermoelectric materials like bismuth telluride, and lead telluride and similarly, they are a bit pricey. Such materials must possess high thermoelectric coefficients; namely, high electrical conductivity accompanied by low thermal conductivity to fulfill the conversion process of heat to electricity. Hence, the prices of these materials, coupled with the difficulty in fabrication, may lead to higher costs of thermoelectric systems.

In addition, although the TEGs utilize more energy and hence reduce energy costs in the long run, the initial cost may be a hindrance, especially for SMEs to adopt the technology solutions. In the case of the industries targeting first-dollar savings, the recovery of the benefits on investments by the TEGs can be slow depending on the extent of waste heat recovery and the effectiveness of the system.
