MEXICOWANDERER
Aug 16, 2015Explorer
I am The Pickle in the Pickle Barrel Quandary. Starvation Social Insecurity income. Car is a Dodge Spirit K car. Carring so much junk I must use a roof rack to carry all the spoils back to Michoacan. Ninety percent stays in Mexico while I summer in Guat. I have indeed lived for years on a truly rural Mexican diet. Tamales and coffee mornings and enchiladas and tacos in the afternoon plus tropical fruit. So I will not cook at all in Guat. With a Nook I can survive without becoming bored. The BORG the Samlex and the Lifelines go to Guat. Along with my home made LED lighting. Thinsulate comforter (which I have yet to buy and am thoroughly confused as to just how warm it is compated to down).
The car has a V6. It gets an honest 26 mpg on the open road has killer AC and auto trans which is mandatory with a crippled hand.
I get OEM pricing on Arctic Silver products and thanks to Landy's excellent report I am going to get killer heat sinks for all the power supplies. Black anodized gathers and radiates significantly more BTUs. The ones I have in mind are honeycomb and pricey.
I don't need a power supply that can stand on it's head and whistles Yankee Doodle in reverse. I do need PSs that LAST. But images of a modified 8955PEC-121220 would be appreciated. Image of where and value of resistor to be replaced with a Bourns 10-turn pot. Might as well make hay while the sun shines.
