    Hydrogen On Demand fuel system

    10% weight reduction = 7% fuel savings. Government mandate by 2025 that the fleet average of ANY manufacturer selling in the US averages 54.5mpg. You are starting to see some unreliable nasty shit put into cars to get there. Poop loads of lightweighting activities going on. My labs are busy!

    Curious how you end up liking that guy. I need a new one, but I hate turning on my air compressor so am contemplating any alternatives.

    Holy hell, how big is your house. I have a couple annoying spots but 5k sqft and a 3 car and mostly have coverage.

    Lord, my LG I need something inline to reduce the output. Phone calls are brutally loud.

    Do the repeaters needs to be hardwired or do they repeat the wireless signal? I also prefer wired EVERYTHING...but want to allocate reality of my phone and pc being flexible.

    You almost make me feel like i should buy a Dark Knight. $93 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006QB1RPY?ie=UTF8&tag=small0c-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B006QB1RPY That being said, Asus has a nice comparator tool on their website and I see the speed increases with the newer ones but am having a hard time picking the logical price point. This is the upgrade to yours for $65 more: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FB45SI4?ie=UTF8&tag=small0c-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00FB45SI4

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    What sort of features? I actually just don't get it. I want reliability, speed and wireless. Those aren't features... I of course left out wired ports which I need.

    does the better router buy me something other than speed? if not how do I know what is enough?

    The problem with video is if you know you have it you look ALL the time. Reality is, if they aren't crying you don't need to do shit. Even then it is usually better if you don't otherwise you will train them to cry to have you come get them. Of course, when bloody murder happens you run!

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Time for another wireless router. My computer HATES my Asus. I have a TP Link I use for work that has been fine, but they all suffer the same thing. My laptop drops the connection. To cure it, I log off, do a failed log in and then a log in again and it usually works. This happens between every 5 minutes and every hour. ONLY when I am one floor away from the router. In the same room as the router it will work non-stop for weeks. I've been testing this the past couple weeks. Literally hasn't failed once as I work all day and then I go downstairs and it fails quickly. The TP link fails about 1/3 as many times as the Asus. to be fair both routers were not spendy. I am willing to spend some dough if it fixes this problem. I am done being annoyed. I see routers from $10 - $300...not sure how to rationalize what and where. My internet speed is 20 down 2 up via cable so going way faster than that isn't necessary. Any recommendations? I would like at least one wired port but if it routes I could surely use a few.

    I'm unbearably excited for an Xcon

    Nothing special about the IDQ. You'll love the Xcon. If you buy two, why not port the pair?

    Luxury Cars Installs

    You first need to figure out what exactly you have. There are plenty of cars that transfer things over a bus, but there are also ones that truly have an analog output and that you can just tap into it with any processor. I am not a fan of any of the reverse the factory processing units on the market. The exception of course could be if you know exactly what you have for a signal in which case it can be fine. The way cars are scrambling everything now though, no matter the processing the weak link will still be the original source.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Congrats. 2 schools of thought. Audio only or video. For audio nearly anything is okay. For video...well I don't know if I want video.
  18. Glad it is working out. Write down what you have set now and start playing some more. Most likely you can have the same revelation again! You are starting to have first hand experience now in why we always say install is everything. The last thing to play with is the equipment, first the settings!

    If you stop with the verbal diarrhea I will stop calling you out on it. Really simple. You post idiotic nonsense in nearly every thread you go in which is a huge forum etiquette no no. Why not prove you are smart enough to figure that out.
  21. There is no area per cubic foot. Just use the area in the enclosures on the site or model them in a real software.

    Nice. So you post stupid shut and people call it out so you respond with the maturity of a 7th grader. Btw, a lot of who you think are my buddies don't like me. They just think your posts suck.

    The equipment is all our own design...but if you read, you knew that. I could give a shit less if you believe me. Your ignorance however is annoying.
