Nissan Leaf: Second generation electric car reviewed | Extension Sockets

The integrated double-barrel flashlight is very bright and has constant and flashing modes. It fires enough photons to adequately illuminate an entire room bright enough to read is pointed at the ceiling. I mention this because my family used this technique in The Philippines to provide enough light for nieces and nephews to get their homework done.

At this point, feel free to install your RAM now or once your motherboard is mounted into the case. I normally like to install everything including the CPU cooler outside the case, that way if I have any fitment issues with the cooler, it’s much easier to address.

That’s just over a third the size of the entry-level battery on offer in the (larger, heavier, more expensive) Tesla Model S and X.

Speaking with media in Brisbane, Hyundai Australia product planning manager, Andrew Tuitahi, said the company is expecting 50 per cent of buyers to opt for the pure-electric model.

“He never drove it. He had Parkinson’s and he had a few problems because of that. It kind of amazed him that it was electric.

The onboard RGB lighting can be controlled via ASUS AURA Sync software which can be downloaded from ASUS’s website. Lighting is also provided by two additional 4-pin analog RGB headers, and a single addressable RGB header located on the motherboard.

Ryzen Threadripper motherboards commonly use a true 8-phase VRM design and it looks like that’s exactly what we’re seeing in this case. The ROG Strix X399-E Gaming is controlled by an IR3556 integrated IR PowIRstage rated at 60A in an 8+0 configuration. I couldn’t find any info on the inductors used but considering the high ratings on the IR components, I would guess somewhere between 60-76A.

A handful (18) of Hyundai Australia’s dealerships will be kitted out as ‘electric flagship’ stores, shared across metro and regional areas. More are being assessed at the moment, apparently, but even doubling the launch figure would represent only a sliver of the brand’s 170 dealer pie.

I write for many of us. But not as many as one would hope. Since we’re badly divided on community, polity, unity. However, it’s false hope at best or flagrant hypocrisy at worst to think anyone has all the answers – and is actually right about
