exploding rocks? crap!

THANKS O'IMBA!

he has the spirit of enduro.

0 and running qualifies as two speeds. If it runs, STFU.

semi-serious question: is the absence of speed considered a "speed"? if no, then only one speed, unless you consider the large range of speeds it hits while moving from zero to max...then it's a super-awesome MULTI-SPEED fan and you got a bargain!!!

Speed is a scalar description of velocity magnitude. Therefore 0 is a valid speed. You could argue that 0 is not a valid velocity as direction is meaningless. If he purchased a multi angular velocity fan that only did nothing, or something, then he should be pissed.


In all seriousness, not sure why Jon wants multiple speeds. If it is for noise, I get it. However if it is for energy savings there is little difference. A multispeed AC induction motor doesn't consume less energy at lower speeds, it just becomes less efficient with an increased voltage-current phase shift.

My official ridemonkey growler has had the same ice cubes in it for just under 24 hours now. Impressive.

In Canadia? Not that impressive.

It specifically said "operating speeds".

Try it now.

add shimz?

 

[canadmos]

In two weeks

add shimz?

Chelsea from Seattle?

How I ended my commute home

Cabbie open door right in front of me. Left index finger hit the door first then some other body part and the bike. No broken bones.

One speed for 120V, another for 208V, a third for 240V, and lots of smoke if you run 480V into it?

Fans, microwaves, woks, fire extinguishers.

Just drove a really, really clean e36 M3. Pretty close to pulling the trigger and unloading das Audi.

Wow, hope the bike makes a full recovery. Was it rushed to a LBS ER ?

Not yet I had to make my own visit first to get my hand and shoulder xrayed. It sucks with the bike its only 2 weeks old I have not had the motivation to look at it yet

exploding rocks, posts, and stumps--oh my!

 

[canadmos]

In Canadia? Not that impressive.

Just checked again, remnants of a few are still floating. How bout dem apples???

 

[jstuhlman]

you put apples in your flask? mmmmkay...

 

[canadmos]

Woah. This growler is a flask? Now we're getting somewhere.

 

[Westy]

PIIYB, know one will ever know.

 

[jstuhlman]

isnt a growler always a flask?

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Went to lunch with some friends, took a postprandial mixed media ride on the Moonlander, which finally raised my frustration with hunting by the rear derailleur when pedaling hard uphill. Got back home and after an epic struggle trying to get the LX derailleur to work properly (measure chain wear, disassemble and clean everything, straighten bent hanger, still no laundly...), cured it by installing an XT RD-M772 derailleur.

It is now beer thirty.

 

[jstuhlman]

i guess when you're retired it's ok to live one day in the past?
