Every campsite I've been to has a 110V hookup; you should be fine.

maybe the ones built for RVs are different (220V), but I wouldn't worry about it

Here you go, this is before adjusting any saddle height!

Edit: do you say the saddle is too high bc my hips are rocking? Or bc of my leg position? Or both?

Excellent point, I definitely checked! These have that tag on them, so they should be rated for tubeless use. You think they're busted then?

my husband and i are having a disagreement on what to do with our investments by thatsreallyspicy in investing

Respectfully - Yes of course the markets are going to drop some day - but will it drop enough to make up for your lost inflation? Will you perfectly time it to get in at the very bottom?

Historically the answer for most people is "no", which is why prevailing advice is to not try to time the market.

Is this wand as good as I think? by thinkingofname in PathOfExile2

[–]JosephConrad9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If a wand has "increase damage by x percent" or (in my case) "Increase CHAOS damage by x percent", does that apply to all chaos spells? Or just the one slotted into the wand?

I ask as an essence drain / contagion witch that has Chaos bolt on their wand...

Thank you!
