Edit: No lighting related info in this post.

We kill things similar to us. It's a hatred still seen in racism. I don't think any country actually welcomes immigration. People moving in on them. Trumps popularity hinges upon this. Imagine if the immigrants coming our way, were not human. Instead, we would call them animals. And we have bugger all respect for animals we don't domesticate/enslave. We simply killed the competition and likely ate them during the last ice age.

Ants build bridges, and stick things together. Monkeys may start a job with one tool, then finish it with another. Why wouldn't this evolve further.

Some religions teach only man (perhaps not even woman) has intelligence. Refusing to see that other animals must think about things. Like.. eat, drink, couple up. Not seeing family units, prides or flocks. Perhaps they are not intelligent enough themselves, if they can't open their eyes and understand what they are looking at.

I don't have my dads skull. I don't have a cross between my mums and dads gene expression either. There is a major breeding issue in that argument, that really shouldn't be found on a site like this

I don’t look anything like this.

😂
You don't look like Kobe Bryant, either. You gonna argue he's an animal and you're not?

In any case, I don't want this discussion to spin any farther out of control than it already has and my intention here is not to insult anyone or to dog pile.

Do me a favor; re-read what I've written and give it careful thought. And then take your dog for a walk.

Speaking of, my old dog was easily smart enough to understand human conversations and demonstrated as much regularly. One of my biggest regrets in life was not to get those little pads that say words when pets step on them. I would dearly love to really know what he was thinking...

Just caught up and i dont even know what im missing, lol
Diy Leds sirs and ladies:) or anything related.

LED infrared supplementation is where we left off.

I’ve been testing incandescent and there is a 250W halogen IR lamp enroute along with reflectors for the 2700K Vero’s. I also ordered three standard Vero’s in 2700K 97 CRI to strap to CPU heatsinks and run @ 1.4A (~93.8W).

The question I have now is, how effective are the mini halogen IR bulbs that run 50W?

Cheers!
