I have only purchased the inexpensive kind. That cost a couple of bucks. These work by using a metalized plastic to reflect 90% of body heat back to the person. They are light and compact. The natu...
Fixed for the tags already existing. Someone needs to create all other tags just once (and can delete from post immediately afterwards) so that I can mark them as required/mod tags too.
Looking at posts tagged [status-completed], or the tags list for the category, it becomes evident that the [status-completed] tag isn't showing up formatted as a moderator tag and the other status ...
Was using a space blanket for warmth over the weekend and found it to be really crinkly, it was really noisy with any movement at all, even just breathing. Are there less noisy/crinkly space blanke...
In addition to the answer by @Pastychomper which seems to be the most likely reason in this specific case, crows often seem to leave dry food into puddles/small ponds in order to make it easier to...
I am looking to 3d print some models of different places, it should be possible to take the same data that is used for making topographical maps and turn that into STL files which I can then 3d pri...
Lately there has been so much wildfire smoke that it was unpleasant if not quite harmful to go outside. I was looking at the weather websites for a forecast to try and predict when it would be bett...
Waters colliding This is the picture I really wanted to post, but I thought it wouldn't make any sense without the context provided by my other picture. Since the contest rules only allow one pic...
Millers River meets Connecticut River 6 Oct 2011, Erving/Gill Massachusetts. This picture was taken looking downriver (south) from the French King Bridge across the Connecticut River, between Ervi...
Rules that are always applicable are as follows: One photo per answer, and no more than 5 answers per user per contest. Post only photos taken by yourself/person with you. All entries should inclu...
While those buttons are currently shown to users, who do not have the ability to perform the action, yet, this is going to change soon, once we roll out Abilities (formerly known as Trust Levels). ...
Your question asked about opened packages. I'm going to offer a bit of a frame challenge. Don't store opened packages long-term in your trailer; rotate them into your kitchen and use them, and buy...
Current testing is "is based upon idealized laboratory testing, the NRR can overestimate the protection" There is some talk about changing the rating system, but in a quick search I don't find anyt...
Assuming the ear protector is a linear system, it will attenuate the various frequencies in a pulse the same as it would a steady tone at each frequency. An impulse is by definition short-lived, an...
Couple of suggestions, Buy the smaller bags of Bisquick so that it can all be used at once with no leftovers and then just leave it in the original packaging. If you are going with the bigger b...
Looking at a new pair of earmuffs that a NRR (Noise Reduction Rating) or 34 DB. However the fine print says that said rating is for continous noise and not impulse (like gunfire). Why would they be...
I have a camping trailer that we keep stocked with food and beverages. When we head out on an impulse trip, it stocked and ready to go. Most of the supplies are canned or dried, so we don't need to...
Hand sanitiser is widely available, especially in recent months, and reportedly burns well enough to boil water while leaving little residue. The downsides are that it is usually sold as a gel, whi...
So long as it's still holding butane and not deeply pitted you should be fine. I would assume that if it was already cracked through the butane would have already escaped. They don't seem to be rea...
I was sorting some old camping equipment at my parents' house and found several butane canisters for a camp stove. One of them has some rust on the metal around the shoulders; it's slightly pitted ...
As of right now, nothing. It has been requested that they not show if a person can't use them, but I am not sure where that is on the list of priorities for development.
What do the 'delete' and 'close' options I see under a question do? I am a normal user with ~1700 rep. I see a delete button under questions and answers (if I wrote them or not). When I mouse over...
European Moth Day, 2018-05-11, Devesa de l'Albufera, Valencia, Spain. Shot with Nikon D5300, Micro-NIKKOR 105mm f/4 and Kenko 2x NAS Teleplus MC7, ISO 800, f/32, flash. Yes, I know this isn't a mo...
This isn't a direct answer, but something that should be cleared up. With a trike in general it would seem the end with two wheels is going to have half as much load per tire, with twice as much su...
After lengthy consideration, I went with the delta. My particular trike has one wheel drive. After the first outing I put a knobby tire on the drive wheel. I have always made sufficient traction ...
