You need high current, not voltage. Electrolysis of water starts somewhere around 1.5V

I've been looking at upgrading our battery bank, stationary and in temperate climate so most pros and cons don't apply.
The only one that matters to us is usable Joules per dollar. You'd have to make your own spreadsheet with local pricing but for us assuming 95% usable lifepo and 50% usable agm, agms do come out be be slightly cheaper.
However, since lifepos are expected to last about twice as long we're going with lifepos as they will be a long term investement.

If you're only looking short term and planning on taking good care of them agms are still a valid choice.

Love reading stories like this, shows how amazingly far Linux desktop has come over the last 10 years.
Even Linus had to admit after their botched Linux challenge that printing is just so much easier vs Windows

Very cool. I remember finding myself so frustrated with how poor the default support was I ended up spending a whole night implementing a system of dynamically creating interaction opaque objects based on each UI element you created.

It has been a long time since I've actually used Unity but I'm very glad this exists for future people just wanting to get stuff done.

props for making it free

I'd argue that's only because km is a very ingrained part of everyday parlance. The use of a megalitre for example would not raise an eyebrow where I live.

Similarly megawatt and gigawatt are pretty common and for things on a global scale terawatts is not unheard of, I don't see why it would be so different for TWh to resort to an arcane way of formatting it.

Don't get me wrong I'm not autistic enough to not see your point, it's just tilting to me to make these extra jumps. Esp. when Wh is already a cursed unit

Two billion thousand. If only we'd come up with a better way to say that. Like some kind of system of metrics. Lmk if we come up with something
