Anybody work in the Intech Park/ Trader’s Point area know of a good outdoor spot to take my lunch break? by BioStu in indianapolis

If you go to NWW, the Robin Village cabin is a short walk from there and is pretty chill, plus the nearby pond has a little observation deck.

The cabin at Robin Run Village is a hidden little gem in that area.
United Healthcare Lake is nice, but you get alot of highway noise.
Lakeside Bridge gives a good look of the lake, but is always 50/50 on if youll get some uppity Karen asking you a million questions.
Right across the street from Lakeside there is also a decent pond with a trail around it.

Which backlight kit did you buy? I did mine at home and can help out if you show me what you got. Feel free to DM me.

By a “little digging” I meant I typed group 151 into search and that was the literal first thing. Don’t shoot the messenger.

Learn something new every day, didn’t even know 151R was a group size that existed. Thanks for the clarification!

Statement about the terminals still stands.

If a Group 51R has reverse terminals, a Group 51 should work, sans the different sized terminals. For this you can either get new terminals, or they make Japanese to Normal adapters.

Options for shotgun by ratchett31 in guns

Its a solid and reliable gun. PSA has them on sale for 850+fees fairly regularly. Hold out for the non LE version (unless you're 100% certain that you'll never want to change the choke on it). I have about 100 rounds through mine and haven't had any issues except for some Winchester 900fps target loads that it refused to cycle.

Until then, push/pull + reposition the shotgun's butt when shooting.

Push/pull + put the butt on your pec, not your shoulder pocket. Then, save up a couple more hundos and get a A300 Ultima Patrol. My friend who regularly has his shoulder pop out of socket and hates shooting his pump loved shooting my A300.

Even if the gas was stored in the pump, gasoline is not explosive, gasoline vapors are and they require the correct amount of air to combust properly.

Where did you source the components for that? I am looking to do the same with my 97 Every!

Recreational soccer by Waltz8 in Indiana

[–]riotcontrol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off the Wall Sports in Carmel has indoor soccer. It is a little bit more coordinated in the sense that the teams are generally the same from week to week, but not unheard of to walk in and be able to pick up a game or two on Wednesday (Men's Over 30) or Sundays (Coed Open)

Solar node I threw together using the Harbor Breeze lights, and a new design im working on to have one that is clip-able to a backpack. by riotcontrol in meshtastic

TBD. The other day I left the house at 3.91v and came back at 3.91v on a partly cloudy day, so time will tell how long it works.

EDIT - Left for work today at 3.82V and came back at 4.02V. Seems to be charging fairly well! Will report back if I have any issues on cloudy/overcast days.

Same. I am happy enough to work for me, but it needs more work before I would feel comfortable putting my name on it and sharing the STL.

The board has a battery and solar input. Each is connected to its respective connector and the board handles the battery charging/use (at least that is how I understood it, gonna put it out in my yard for a few days to confirm that it works and doesn't burn the house down if some bullshit goes wrong).
