Ah.

reminder to 1) re-check your charge every now and then on power banks, especially ones you dump in a car for emergencies and 2) try not to buy LiPo if you can help it because it will fuck itself up if left in the elements

2018-08-03 02:08:47 UTC  

@dogapult Two is one and one is none

2018-08-03 02:10:21 UTC  

Best capacity per dollar is a car lead-acid battery and a buck converter with however many outputs you want

2018-08-03 02:34:51 UTC  

Hahaha, you're not wrong about that. the output of the electrical system of the car is amazingly low. so I'm just going with the 20kmah

2018-08-03 02:49:22 UTC  

40 ampere-hours at 12V is amazingly low?

2018-08-03 02:49:35 UTC  

The full capacity of a battery

2018-08-03 02:49:58 UTC  

Unless for authencity you're using some old ass battery

2018-08-03 02:50:26 UTC  

You need 3 outpits, one for phone, one for camera, and the third?

2018-08-03 02:58:24 UTC  

Flashlight, of course.

2018-08-03 03:00:22 UTC  

one for phone, one for camera, one for spare batteries for the other 3 cameras.

2018-08-03 03:01:13 UTC  

I'm not using some old battery for the car, the car just has a generator that only puts out 20amps. and I have a feeling it'll need all of them.

2018-08-03 03:01:43 UTC  

@Woosh RE: underestimating solar panels, it would just be topping up whatever the battery would drain during the ~45 minutes/day 5 days/week that it was charging my phone using a cable that doesn't have data lines to negotiate higher speeds. It would be lit from roughly 5am-11pm 6 days/week, 3 hours less on Sunday. Probably a bit longer than that, the room is on a motion sensor, those are just the hours it's real busy and the lights are always on full.

2018-08-03 03:06:51 UTC  

Why not just use an out of the way outlet to charge a powerbank?

2018-08-03 03:57:59 UTC  

Seems less fun. And then I gotta make sure no one grabs it and I don't forget it

2018-08-03 03:59:04 UTC  

And the only good spot to leave it that also had plugs is the other end of the store, behind customer service, which is generally where I need to avoid if I don't want to get stuck.

2018-08-03 03:59:17 UTC  

It's one of those cases of solving a problem that doesn't really need solving

2018-08-03 06:22:36 UTC  

none of the luminescent CIA variety

2018-08-03 07:22:28 UTC  

I better get muh chinkshit today

2018-08-03 07:29:39 UTC  

I think chink shit not coming in its specified time is a ground for refund so ask ali directly for a refund and get it and then wait until the chink shit arrives so you can get yopur chink shit for free

2018-08-03 07:37:39 UTC  

dear people dont get refunds from products slightly late (what is probly last-mile problem not their )

2018-08-03 07:37:47 UTC  

partial refund is wise if you actualy paid some postage on it

2018-08-03 07:39:27 UTC  

contact the local post office (who is overencumbered due all the chinkshit packages) and complain there _every time_ they fail to meet the last-mile delivery time

2018-08-03 07:40:15 UTC  

@foxhunt but it's not chinks, it's post office fucking up

2018-08-03 07:40:30 UTC  

does it really matter

2018-08-03 07:40:37 UTC  

actualy it does

2018-08-03 07:40:53 UTC  

post offices (usualy) have state funding and they need to report every complain/etc

2018-08-03 07:40:56 UTC  

to higher ups

2018-08-03 07:41:21 UTC  

Yeah

2018-08-03 07:41:39 UTC  

I am saying to ask for refund from the site not to go deal with the post office which honestly won't do shit

2018-08-03 07:41:52 UTC  

at least around nordic and central europe they send quaterly "happiness report" (aka all the complains and successes and investigation on what lead to it)

2018-08-03 07:41:55 UTC  

Dear don't chink the chinks

2018-08-03 07:42:28 UTC  

chinks are already making bare minimun profit and hitting that hits our ability to get shit cheap and neat

2018-08-03 07:43:08 UTC  

Besides the expected delivery according to Ali is 9-29 August, it isn't even 9 yet. Chinks are doing good.

2018-08-03 07:43:31 UTC  

and the "somebody just comes to take their place" does not really work on most good or niche tier products

2018-08-03 07:43:55 UTC  

Respect chinkshit before you loose it

2018-08-03 07:43:57 UTC  

think if stuff like KZ would have gone bankcrupt at start (or convoy)

2018-08-03 07:44:28 UTC  

also the fault most likely is on your local post office not prioritising packets on their "to come" order

2018-08-03 07:45:08 UTC  

but actualy focus on "local packets first then international paid, then chinashit cheap"

2018-08-03 07:45:22 UTC  

what is sure smarter but end game is not equal to all producers
