RE: Re[4]: sslivesteam2-Digest - Number 320

[Christopher Coley]

The fifth cell was common on some older battery powered CB's and Ham radios.
If using NiCd (also counts NiMH) 1.2V cells add a fifth (5 x 1.2 = 6V) which
gives the same voltage as 4 alkaline (4 x 1.5 = 6V).  This could make a big
difference.

Ok now the question where to get 5 cell battery holders?

List Mom Request

[Christopher Coley]

Is it posssible to add a heading to the start of the subject "[sslivesteam]"
or something.  With the various spam's and fake messages I am getting it is
sometimes difficult to differenciate our messages from spam.  E.g. the
subject "Re: Still there???" it wasn't until I saw a message from one of the
list members that I realized these were not spam

Sorry
Chris.

 

RE: CA glue

[Christopher Coley]

Steve which CA was this.  I have never run into a CA that was any good
for anything other than temporary fitting.  I use it all the time like
locktite, but prefer the real stuff, and have never had an issue undoing
something.

I really would like a CA that works as advertised as I have not been
able to find one to date.

RE: Wick adventures

[Christopher Coley]

Any chance you could post a picture out of the burner assembly and not
on fire?  I would love to see what you were saying about forming the top
of the burner.

Thanks

Re: Ozoned Distilled Water

[Christopher Coley]

Ozoned water I would think will be bad.  Ozone is added like chlorine is
added to stop bacteria etc.  However this will make the water more
corosive so I wouldn't use it.
