Is that it wouldn't go faster than 80Mbps on WiFi or directly connected Ethernet?

Heat might not be the limitation. Unless the devices has enough DRAM it will choke quickly. The form factor really puts me off. Looks like…

Too much grief with D-Link reliability and warranty to want to risk it.

GPUs, particularly NVidia, support the CUDA library which is used for a wide range of applications including machine learning. The NVidia…

Sure, but most people don't have equipment that can do this or the knowledge on how to do.

It doesn't really have enough RAM or processing power to take advantage of the power of OpenWRT.…

No. Some models had hard code default usernames and password for remote support!

The renegotiate when another device is plugged in is part of the standard (ie it is meant to). It means a dedicated PD charger per device…

Agreed, but it is more than just that. There is the risk of control over the router being taken over by a foreign actor. Just look at how…

I used to only have problems with PowerLine adapters due solar panels on some of the circuits, particularly those that went near the panels.

A UPS really works very differently with most featuring automatic voltage regulation (AVR), which can prevent the need to switch to…

G84 is 50% more than this model.

I was thinking there is no way these will be fast or will slow down massively when the cache or drive fills up a little.

The USB connection undoes most of the RAID advantage. USB connection to the drive means a double interface and no direct connection to the…

Should be fine for anything RPi 3 and later.

I'm not suggesting the use of lithium ion batteries in a UPS. I was merely making the comparison to lithium ion, including LFP, that don't…

Just a note on these UPS with lead acid batteries. If you expect frequent outages of more than a few minutes, definitely buy a UPS with a…

Agreed. Operating on low loads can see very different efficiencies.

Efficiency could vary dramatically between units, particularly if the load is low.

For the every day user that is connected to the grid, the 750VA unit is a better deal as it has AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation). As…

Do you really need to charge it that fast? It will wear out the battery faster.

I used to have the Ryobi Pole Saw 18V and I think that it killed a less than or equal to 2Ah pack that came with it. Obviously only a…

Getting warm during operation or hot during charging is a sign there is a problem with the pack.

I can't speak for this particular battery pack, but some other brands are using pouch cells.

I can't find the replacement toner. That could be a challenge.

Are you referring to Ganfeng lithium for cells produced in the USA? I think they are likely still obtaining some material from them. There…

No, it includes the battery. Tesla sources lithium from Australia. Australia produces around 50% of the world's lithium ore concentrate.…

It might have taken that long for a Volvo to recover the embedded emissions, but this is far from what the best selling BEV takes. The…

The Aliexpress website seems to failing at the moment with either pages not showing or all products sold out.

I am fair certain that the 240W standard has been ratified. As for how many cables will really do it, that is a different matter.
