I could have gotten it for £7 if I didn't mind a little increased risk. But going with a seller having high proportion of positive views meant the chance for hassle was lower. It's the first time I bought office as I always had free access in the past. So, £13 per lifetime was not bad. If it...

Charger V2 is built and good to go. CHARACTERISTICS Input: 5v to 30v, theoretical max 3A Output (open circuit): 5v to 32.5v Output current: theoretical max 3A, wiring limit 2A, fuse limit 250mA Charger overhead: 4mA while not charging; 25mA while charging; 32mA while charging with the...

The battery is dead, long live the battery! The 063 battery died in the middle of being used as a winter portable charger. Analysis indicates it lost one cell and stuck at 10v. Charging it to 12v produces gassing which further proves 1 cell is dead. Ordinarily, there should be no gassing at...

After prolonged simmering time in the head, the information I gained from this project finally clicked. I believe I have the solution for rejuvenating lead acid batteries. Brief testing appears to confirm this. Here are the relevant data forming the basis for the solution. DATA 1 Many battery...

I was a creature of habit, so said the manager I once worked for. I don't like change. Familiarity gives me a sense of comfort. Despite the increased spying activity, which I block where I can, I am happy with the new office and outlook - everything just looks and feels so familiar and works...

Now fully back in business! Information on the outlook-classic and hotmail (or any ms mail) combo are extremely inconsistent. But it turned out to be straightforward. Add any ms operated mail via "File > Info > Add Account". Then enter email, press "connect", follow by password and the rest is...

PST can be used for archiving. Anything I don't want stored on the internet, I just drag them into PST. I have stuff going way back when emails were delivered into PST. Rather than migrating stuff out of it I just manually put stuff into it on an ad hoc basis.

After much pondering, I decided to stick with outlook. There was no disruption after uninstalling the old version and installing OL 2021 + office. All my existing connection settings and PSTs worked without additional effort. I found no way to update-fix office 2016 retail click2run. It was...

I want outlook largely to avoid any learning curve. Then I can just plug in my existing .pst files. Another issue with a newer MS office is that it needs a microsoft account just to install. I am not keen on given them my personal info however trivial these might be. My main use for ms office is...

The seller has their own site selling the item for $99.99. So, it doesn't add up. I will try my luck with the bigger scammer instead: MS. Their outlook 2016 stopped connecting to hotmail because they wanted so. Strangely enough OL 2016 is not end of life until end of this month. That means they...

Seems too cheap to be legit. I just need the outlook classic. Anyone has experience of buying from this site generally? https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/get-software-deals-ltd-5-london

OK, found my set up: 4 inch brush, bucket, and water. Normal sized bucket helped with quick paint mixing with water using large brush to get the right consistency. I was already using water with interior wood paint. But, I didn't make the connection between water and wall paint until this...

Cutting in on the edges is a given. I would do that even if I brush it. Is there absolutely no hope for using a brush? One of the commenters for the above video said he did a big job for a hospital. He rolled on the paint, then brushed it. Why would some jobs demand brushing? The radiators have...

I need to paint walls and came across this video where the guy is using rainbow brush strokes. Can anyone explain why? I painted walls in the past using vertical brush strokes and the result wasn't satisfactory. Although at the time I knew nothing about maintaining a wet edge. With the summer...

That's plenty of time then. The supplier hasn't written to me on any special requirement to change.
