the strap is for mounting the battery on a drone.

It's not a free blue bracelet? 😂

[@ianhuxstep211]

The strap for the 2200mah lipo is for mounting the battery in a RC plane. Get yourself a cheap lipo charger with balance charging for those 2S lipos

On my M4 Mac Mini Base Model I have added an old 1Tb SeaFire NVME drive in an Orico Thunderbolt 3 (yes three) enclosure (they came off old my M1 Mini) and BlackMagic shows that I get 2500 MB/s (20Gb) write verses the 2900 MB/s on the internal SSD. Oddly a bit slower than the M1 Mini but good enough for me, and a lot cheaper than buying a new Thunderbolt 4 (or 5) enclosure. My biggest problem was getting a Thunderbolt cable that actually delivered anywhere near the speed it was sold for !

Sitting here at a mild 17degC, wondering where summer is while there's snow in places..... I think that voltage source will be just fine 🤣

@@JonnyFix I didn’t turn my air conditioning on till 12 today… was certainly colder today.

Well done on the NEW video editing computer! How does it compare to say a 13th or 14th Gen i9 running Win10/11 and Davinci Resolve? Note: I know diddly squat about Mac's.

[@TheDefpom]

@@IanScottJohnston I’ve edited a few videos on it now, I’m getting a pretty solid 240 frames/sec encoding, that’s about 9 times faster than my last machine.

[@IanScottJohnston]

C'est quoi cette Barette mémoire pour exploser les colis!!!alors que avec des ciseaux ou un cutter sa le fait bien mieux!!!!What is this memory stick for exploding packages!!! When with scissors or a cutter it does it much better!!!!

[@TheDefpom]

@@moulyjeanlouis7302 I use the ram stick as it rarely damages anything it comes into contact with inside the package, unlike a proper knife, which is great for destroying what you purchased before it’s even out of the bag.
