    Some work on my A3

    Is that a track day car? It's not so great to daily drive a custom vehicle that is not street legal or safe. Check with your insurer.

    Mirrorless Cameras (MILC) and Lenses

    You should look at the APS-C bodies and lenses rather than the full flame system. Other than a few smallish short to mid-tele primes, most FF E lenses are about the same size as DSLR lenses. I'd suggest you look at the a6500 for Sony. I'm not so familiar with the Fuji, but the funky, non-Bayer...

    Second opinion on some electrical calculations

    I mean that the overheating could be worse, not the voltage drop. ;) It's not clear to me from DD's description what temperature is increasing and if there is localized switching that would benefit from higher voltage/lower current or if higher voltage would provide more power to the light...

    New phone time v. LG G4 bootlooped

    I went the other way, spending ~$250 for the primarily work phone and more on the phone for personal use.

    Mirrorless Cameras (MILC) and Lenses

    I'm not sure why you would consider the form factor of the FF Sony E bodies to be a good thing. They are harder to use than Canon or Nikon due to the poor ergonomics, though the a9 and a7RIII are a bit better than their predecessors

    Meanwhile the a7R III is here. I can hardly afford a bunch of mamory cards for those ~90MB files.

    Best 8TB Drive

    Probably, but I was referring to the HGST 8TB 7200 RPM NAS drive, which should be a good one. I have no need now, but would certainly buy a half dozen.

    Ideally you want to dissolve the surface of the foam, not melt it.

    Can you dissolve some polyurethane and add a binder for the foam?

    Evacuate the air to a high vacuum (0.05 Torr), then purge with a pure inert gas (5.0 helium or nitrogen) and repeat a few times to be sure. ;)

    NAS Drive

    I checked the TS-831X logs and there have been no warnings for a few months. I think it was resolved by a QTS update in August or early September. There was nothing mentioned in the release notes though. I was a bit surprised to note that the newest drives are listed as having been in...

    Android 7.0 reviews?

    I received a generic Chinese battery which behaves about the same as the OEM battery. Both are charged a bit more by the Samsung USB charger than in the phone, but both are working fine and read 100% when charged and discharged in the phone alone. I'll probably put the OEM Samsung battery in a...

    Second opinion on some electrical calculations

    Is this a temporary holiday or event display? Make sure that any damages caused by failures will be covered by the liability insurance. Some companies require licensed electricians for any builds, regardless of voltage. I'd contact the insurance company before doing anything, or do you have a...
