"High-lumen CFLs." In terms of lighting, wattage, as I know you know, means the amount of power consumed and has little to do with amount of light output. The lighting industry has done itself a diss

In seriousness, let me add that when you say "old" you open up a can of RF worms. Most cordless phones are UHF *now* (35-cm band or higher), but go back a decade and a lot were still VHF-lo (45-50 MH

Our neighborhood's two power providers each have different types. The coop I'm in has had "smart" meters for years and years (long before we moved in 5 years ago). Data runs over the powerlines. No n

Mobile manufacturers have decided to standardize on Micro-B USB connectors. Since they are also usually the USB connector for the phone and thus are USB-standard, that pretty much limits it to 5 V dc

But I bet none of those 12 or 28s are new. With the cellphone industry trying to standardize on USB Micro B, I would assume that manufacturers of other devices would want to leverage that if technica

I gather it's grid-tied (UL-listed inverters stop passing AC when the grid power drops ... or is crappy). Is the utility on-board with distributed generation? Or did they accept it because your state

You're not up-to-date on the latest in the solar industry. Most grid-tied systems these days have no batteries (because they reduce system efficiency). The system generates power while the sun is up,
