K&N reusable air filters
I took the plunge and bought two, infinitely reusable K&N home air filters. The cost was something like $130 but we'll worth it, IMo. They should pay for themselves in about 3 years. They're very...

It's just a matter of time until the "Big 3" become the "Legacy 3" or something like that, imo.
I'm guessing the guts of that Ford e-truck are actually Rivian, seeing as how Ford bought a $500M...

Found a new little trick to keep us cool at night. Our bedroom ceiling fan is in the center of the room. It blew on our feet. We now sleep upside-down so our upper bodies are under the air stream.

@elhigh thanks. I don't track the numbers too closely but our electric this month was $33. Last year it was $72. Some of the differences are a 3.66kW solar system, more computers running at home, and...

The K&N house filters look like they would certainly provide better filtering than some of the cheaper, disposable filters. Some of those have visible gaps.

I'm with you. The Elon twitter drama is having more of an effect on the stock price than the forward progress they are making.
There are lots of other manufacturers coming out with EVs but they...

Lennox makes some AC/heat pumps that are specifically designed to connect to solar. I think it's a great idea but not so useful for those of us who already have an AC unit. It's nice because you...
