Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 4 has a big 4,100 mAh battery and a tiny price tag | Circuit Breaker Parts

Yeah really though. It’s kind of embarrassing. I’m an engineer and work in big industry (usually minerals, bulk material handling, oil and gas, doing a big robotics project right now for a wood products plant, etc.) and this would be an afterthought. No one would even question it. I mean really a no brainer. People use electric blankets on their bed. I really don’t get it. It really shows how amateur hour most of the people who comment on this site are.

The only way, AFAIK, to know how much current it is actually supposed to be capable of is to calculate it based on the listed thermal resistance from junction to case, the thermal resistance of your heat sink from case to ambient, and the Rds(on).

On top of this, if we halve the current, then we can also use thinner and therefor cheaper wires in our power distribution system.

One more thing. If you are not a electrician you should not be playing with Live power. Like you said you almost killed your family, And Possibly more people.

Note: Not all certifying agents offer online lookup, and some have a lag time for posting new certificates. If you are unable to find a certificate online, contact the certification agency or supplier for further verification.

I suppose it’d be a case by case thing. But I wouldn’t want to give an insurance company another excuse not to pay out.

Another potential issue of the translucent mirror design is that with an extra optical surface between the lens and the imager, flare could be increased, and image quality degraded, and indeed we’ve seen some evidence of this in predominantly dark shots containing bright point light sources, as described elsewhere in this review. There’s also another surface for dust to adhere to, and while this would be too far from the image sensor to appear as distinct specks, it could further contribute to issues with flare and reduced contrast. While manual sensor cleaning will now be a familiar process for photographers used to shooting with a digital SLR, cleaning the pellicle mirror is a total unknown. The Sony A33 provides a cleaning mode allowing the sensor to be accessed, and the pellicle mirror itself can be manually raised to facilitate this, but Sony’s documentation provides no advice on cleaning the pellicle mirror itself, simply noting that the surface of the mirror shouldn’t be touched.

There’s one more multi-shot feature on the Sony A33 that’s worth mentioning; namely Auto HDR (High Dynamic Range). HDR photography increases the range of brightness values represented in a scene by combining two or more shots taken at different exposures, combining highlight detail from some and shadow detail from others. In the past, this has involved locking the camera down on a tripod, shooting several images at different exposures, and then working on a computer to combine them. Lately, though, the capability to do this directly in-camera has been appearing from a number of manufacturers, with varying levels of success. The auto HDR feature on the Sony A33 works pretty well, since the camera does the same micro-alignment trick it uses for its other multi-shot features. Options for HDR include an Auto setting, where the camera determines how much of the effect to apply, and manual settings ranging from 1 to 6(!) EV of exposure range.

Because a failure of the sort I have described will not be current limited. You’ll likely start a fire.

Three electrocutions? Better be careful cat, you only have six more left before you will die for real Receiving an electrical shock isn’t an electrocution.

At the risk of being labeled a pedant, I’ll remind you that Mike isn’t billed for power, he’s billed for energy, and you didn’t say how *long* you’d expect to draw 3 kW for free.

Lenovo is promising 30 percent better performance over its previous Miix 630 Windows on ARM device, and a surprising claim of 25 hours of battery life to match. While the battery life sounds impressive, it’s the performance that will matter in a device like this and we’ll need to test this latest range of ARM-powered laptops to see if app compatibility and performance has improved. Most Windows desktop apps will run emulated on these ARM-powered devices, but there are some limitations. As this is powered by the Snapdragon 850, there’s also built-in LTE support for mobile connectivity on the go.
