I tried one of the many DIY headlight restoration solutions available to help my 5th gen camaro. Does the method of sanding and coating with 2k clear coat work?

    • @jimrageLT1
      @jimrageLT1 Місяць тому

      #Facts. Setbacks, yes. From my perspective, though, it seems like the challenges that lithium Ion batteries present, especially in very large EV sized applications, are ignored when the industry is trying to sell us on the concept. Small lithium ion batteries, though still with safety concerns, are a better use for the technology, imo. ALL batteries are bad for the environment. But no one is trying to convince us that lead acid, or other older battery chemistries, are part of the path to sustainably.

    I've known of two fire stations in my area to catch on fire. One was in Collinsville, OK. A small town, about 15 minutes north of Tulsa. In spite of being a small town, Collinsville had a full time professional fire department for a long time. There were firefighters sleeping in their bunks upstairs that night. The firefighters all got out safely, and if I remember correctly, got the two trucks out of the bays. To get the fire under control they required help from other communities nearby, including Owasso, a larger suburb of Tulsa, Collinsville's neighbor to the south. Then Tulsa sent them a ladder truck. The building was pretty much a total loss. They also have the Collinsville rural fire department very close by, staffed by volunteers, that loaned the full timers space while their station was rebuilt. The other fire station to catch on fire was Tulsa's fire station 13. Which is located on the west side of the City. It's staffed by one company, and they were out on a training exercise. Another company from stations 25 happened to be driving by in their brand new truck they just acquired and were out getting training on the new truck. Hey, they got to put it to good use. I think that fire was traced to a small appliance, possibly a coffee maker. Afterall, what full time fire station would be complete without a coffee maker? The damage to this station was mostly due to smoke. The other company happened to drive by before things could really get rolling. The Collinsville station, I don't remember the cause, it was during the winter, so possibly the heating system. Both of these were before Li-Ion batteries were invented or so predominate.
