@LV: You're right, difficult to find info. I saw a DIY on Youtube who had purchased Ambri units equal size, to car batteries.

@LV: Did search for it again but couldn't find it. Maybe they have given up on small scales units.

I don't think they make small batteries. And they've had a lot of problems:

@m0laki Exactly. Many things are collective IE many people dont like paying taxes to support the war machine. Sorry no choice

The government steals from us, it's not right. But companies cannot steal from us. Using no electricity from them means you

There is only one fair government, Libertarian. Virtually no taxes, pay for what you use. Collective = theft.

BE AWARE: WIn10 update may fail. Lost my server today. It required reinstallation of WIn10. 7 of 8 PC's updated ok.

@LV To repeat, power utilities here are govt sanctioned monopolies. They can treat an electric bill as a tax.

How are folks dealing with the Boincstats and the change in the Milkyway URL. I tried un-attach and re-attach but didn't work

@jenesuispasbavard: 2 Milkyways? A very interesting astronomical development for our perception of the Universe.

@jenesuispasbavard: Definitely a healthy procedure to delete the old one before installing the new one.

@frank0051 I changed two of my hosts to milkyway-new and it did download new work and is now being processed. I will not change my other hosts until I see that completed work is being properly reported on BOINC and BAM.

@Stacie, they may well be a monopoly and you can't buy from another supplier, but there's no way you can be forced to buy
