How to convert electrical units Videos

these videos are helpful although you never showed how to work out the actual per unit values, just how to get the bases

+brians153 one more thing. I'm always amused by guys like you. Guys who eat and do everthing that is "science based". And then I read official data (CDC articles and HBS articles) which clearly shows that medical drugs are the third leading cause of death in US (properly prescribed!). Weren't these drugs supposed to help us? And here I ask the question (no, I do not want an answer from you). Are you people still gonna be so naive to think that all of this stuff is harmless? If you want to use it (for an extended periods of time) then be sure you never want to have children in the future. Otherwise they will be affected. We have never had such an outbreak of brain damaged newborns as we have now (governemnt data again). And doctors do not know why. Of course they do not know! Nobody knows why, because we simply know too little about human being in general. Don't be naive people!

+brians153 hey troll. We have been offered a number of stupid "inventions" like this in the past. All of them were supposed to be safe and effective. They turned out not to be safe and effective. If you want to fool yourself then just continue doing it. Scientists do not know how brain works so whatever they do with the nervous system is just an experiment. Deal with it. I can understand your reaction if it helps you with your pain problems. OK. But don't cry in 10 years from now when they find out that TENS was bad. That your genome has changed. That you can not have more children. Because guess what! Genome changes depending on external stimulation. We have never had such a great number of people with external electrical stimulation. So we are about to see how our bodies are going to adapt to this. Genome changes pretty fast. You should be able to see results in next generation. They may become unable to deal with pain at all or something like that. The result of this experiment will be understood in the near future.

+plmareksurma you are a dope. you have no clue what you are talking about. its really sad how stupid YOU are. You should leave the internet and never return. You jackass!

+kim law TENS is stupid and can not work well for everybody.

+Rita Gray I HAVE THE SAME ISSUES.  IT IS SO IRRITATING AND PAINFUL

TENS are basically EMS designed to be portable.

Thank you for the great advice. What is the different between TENS and EMS? 

+Katie Khou TENS units can be bought online directly by the consumer. It is best, though, to have a doctor specializing in sports medicine or physical therapist to show you how to use one before you try it yourself.

I would advise against it...

You are right - 9- volt battery folks!

+Christopher Griggers How long does it work before you must replace the ice?

+Goody PR, I just did this and it was supper easy to do. Not hard at all.

+Sarah Coffee You freezer is on and running anyway. .0001 watt of energy to freeze it. Opening the freezer door causes the most energy loss

+Sarah Coffee same as you freezing up some burgers or a rack of ribs

All of your bravada about your qualifications do not reflect the change in my power bill and electrical usage. I have more $$ in my pocket this July than I did last year including a rate increase on power. I repeat the 18000 BTU AC unit I used sucked between six and seven times the power of my energy star rated chest freezer at everyday use. Obviously constantly refreezing four gallons of already near freezing water in a much cheaper operating chest freezer while running two 18 inch fans and two aquarium pumps takes less energy than the AC unit used to lower AND sustain the ambient air temperature in a 1000 square foot apartment with 8 foot ceilings. I like to keep it 65-70 degrees at all times. Last year with the same climate my June power bill was $158 with the AC. This year with these units, using insulation on the plastic tubing and water tanks it was $93, but by all means, please tell us all how that very real 63 extra bucks in my bank account says I'm wrong again and how I need to reconsider my position.

+Jim Piper Jim... I will show you as to why I will stand behind my comment.before that I will make one fact known to you and those reading... I am refrigeration expert. I hold my operating engineers license here in NY. I have worked in most of the skyscrapers at one point or another in my career, yes even the late Trade Centers. which were ocean water cooled. my resume is sick. let me show you something.   You would need to remove approximately 1200 BTUs of heat to convert a gallon of water to ice. (if the water was already 32 degrees - liquid)  There are 8.34 lb in a gallon of water, which converting to lb-moles is 0.463. The latent heat of crystallization for water is -2583.4 BTU/lb-mole. Multiplying the two together and you get -1197 BTUs, which means you need to remove that amount of heat to convert the gallon of water to ice. Now... Cooling food requires a considerable amount of energy, which means that a refrigerator adds significantly to your monthly electric bill. According to electricity expert Michael Bluejay, the average refrigerator uses 488 BTUs per hour in normal use. If you put something especially warm inside the fridge, it must work harder, consuming a greater number of BTUs hourly. (this is cooling only, not freezing).so... to keep it simple... and not have to do a heat load calculation right here on google plus at 8 in the morning after a nights worth of drinking... lol - lets do this instead... take 1200btu's ideal and divide them 488btu's... you would get the result idea of how long that compressor would need to run to make that "ideal" water into a solid brick of ice. then multiply it by two... for your two gallons. I get 12000/488x2 = 4.91 that's five hours of compressor time, evaporator motor time and condenser fan motor time. now take that 5 hours of ideal temp water to ice cooing... and multiply it by the average amp draw of a domestic refrigerator... which is about 8 full load amps, divide that to your electric companies kilowatt per hour charge and you will have a ball park of what this truly costs just to make the ice... if the water is already 32 degrees! if its tap water at say 70 degrees the cost goes up!  then add your fan wattage per hour to run... plus your salt pump per hour to run. at this point if you do your specific areas cost in the very crude way I have laid it out above... you might reconsider your position. lastly.... there is a much more efficient way to run this fan coil cooling contraption... but it requires either a hole in the ground or a body of water close by. similar to a pond, lake or pool.here are some basic links for you://www.answers.com/Q/How_many_BTUs_will_it_take_to_change_1_gallon_of_water_at_32_degrees_to_ice_at_32_degrees//www.ehow.com/info_12160135_average-btus-refrigerator.html

+birdman3931ny I use two of these modified with insulated salt water foam coolers and frozen gallon jugs of water. They fully replaced my 18000 BTU window AC unit and cost me $50-55 less a month to use.

We haven't had really high temperatures so maybe not. I can deal with heat, but the humidity makes me feel like a fat girl running up a hill! Damn!!! LOL!!

+Ioanna*Warrior4YHWH Lol Lol I'm coming down in a couple of weeks. I guess I'm going to soak there as well.

+birdman3931ny We actually have high humidity here. Now, the midwest is dry, but in Columbia we sit in a bowl.

+Ioanna*Warrior4YHWH. Nothing like Ny. Trust me. Lake Murray sends that flat breeze! The pine trees and cedar trees cover the sun well. Not that's its not hot as hell down there... by it ain't nyc hot. Lol no trees here. Smog out the ying Yang. Lol better off south and dry, than north and sticky.

Come to SC then you'll have all the humidity you need & want!!!

+Kenny I was not joking I have cancer I as saying that wont work for me because my lungs are damaged i was not joking

whats not funny?

very interesting :)
