On all the batteries I have ever run across the Ohm Hours rating is on the back side of the label, just peel it off to check it. [ Parent ]

Pleasing colors are always 10. Trojan purple is about a 6, depending on who you ask. White or Black are usually 9 or 2, depending on who you ask. Mauve is obviously valued at 16.
Heavy is rated at 4 to 14, on a scale of 1 to 10.
Battery life is rated at between 4 and 18, on a scale of 1 to 10. Some is 7, great is about 10, bunches is over 13, while a hole lot better than users claim is 22 or more.
"OK" almost works, sometimes. "Not Bad" means it worked, once. "As Expected" means pretty good, but not good. "Good" is almost OK. "High" is usually too much. "Perfect" is almost good, but not quite, and considerably less than expected.
Butt their are sum variations. G-[ Parent ]
I take the rpm of my genny and divide it by the hour of the day. Then I take that number and plug it into an online calculator I found. It tells you your estimated battery capacity (measured in Ohm deciminutes because it is metric but I think he's writing a standard version) based upon the lattitude of your tower.
I pretty much trust it because nobody would go through all the trouble of writing a web page if they didn't know what they were talking about. I wrap my power cords around a ferrite core... 2 turns per amp and that usually allows it to run off of 12v. That's on the guys website too. No diodes or rectifiers needed. My pc now runs off of 2 6v lantern batteries. If I'm lying then tell me HOW CAN I BE posting if I'm lying??? [ Parent ]

I am saving the extra potatos to go off-grid. Then buy an LCD monitor with the savings, doubling the production per potato used.

They gave me a post-dated check. The guys who wrote the check (John Smith and William Jones) explained why this kind of transition can not happen on a Monday. G-[ Parent ]
Just a few postings of that picture in the right places, or actually showing someone how the potato is plugged into your PC, and suddenly there will be people in this world who swear they "know a guy" or "heard about a guy" who ran a computer with a potato. Nobody will remember you specifically, and the source of the (mis)information will be lost over time. Too funny. That's how that kind of thing gets started.
Kinda like the "hydrocarbon powered ECO-Vehicle" bumper stickers I bought from Glenn Beck. You should see the stories about people getting interested in hyrdocarbons to save the earth.
I love that potato picture. We should start a thread of people showing all the stuff they run off of potatoes.[ Parent ]
P.S. Note to the stupid, this is sarcasm, please don't actually look me up and send me a hundred dollars - there actually is no tomato battery in the works here.'A Joule saved is a Joule made'[ Parent ]
Whats the C20 rating on an average potato? After its is so drained it begins sagging when the hard drive tries to spin up, you can brew it into ethanol to power your back-up 1.1 Watt micro-generator:
