I'd like to know more about the technology, how it works, and how accurate
it is.

So in some cases going to full discharge may make sense.

There is no need to go full discharge. The voltage and capacity properties
of a lead-acid battery have a near linear relationship so a 50% di
that is an under load voltage and is different
from an
at rest voltage.

Although I have never seen water from over the winter I still fill and drain
a bit of gas through the tank in the spring then use it in the lawnmower.
Fact or fiction it is still an easy maintenance step.

shelf
life is six months. If it is stored outside of 50 - 70F it may break down
faster.

The wedges might hold the mast collar down, opposing the effect of halyards
trying to
lift it and cabin top compression from the chain plates. Windburn has split

Hi,
I?m in the first year of owning a 1980 C&C 30 Mk1, (- love the boat -) and
I have a couple questions that I am hoping some of you may be able to help me
with - thanks in advance.
First
The pink RV style antifreeze does freeze solid though it is suppose to not
expand enough
to break copper pipes at least down to the rated temperature. It may break
plastic before
the rated temperature.

In very light winds when gybing from a hot angle centering the main
also helps to keep the spinnaker from collapsing and wrapping the
forestay.

shock. If there is a
problem with the earth ground
even a GFCI may not help. In a marina or club if all the grounds are correctly
tied together a persons
safety is dependent on the quality of the worst installation using shore power.

GFCI should trip. Maybe having the GFCI in is a good thing in that if there
was a defect in the load you would never know it without a ground. With
it the GFCI would keep tripping letting you know something is wrong.
Not that there is ever any wiring problems on old sailboats ....

or me the biggest differences would be in prop walk
from 9 to 16%, nearly 70% more prop walk force.
Overall the Flex-O-Fold 2 blade looks to be a good choice.
The Gori 2 blade physically is very similar to the Flex-O-Fold.
Anyone have experience testing those two against each other?
Michael
ircuit Neutral that bypasses the GFCI. A short to that wire would cause
an imbalance and trip the GFCI. Then you would be connecting a floating
Neutral to the loads "ground" which may be exactly what the Xantrex article says
not to do.
