Hey! You can definitely use the cheaper one, it's still a lead-free rosin core, but just doesn't come with as much solder as the more expensive one. And you'll use very little for a Tsop flash, not even a quarter of what's in the cheaper one (even less than a quarter of it)

Lemmy?

Wait, are crossposts a thing on Lemmy now? I somehow missed that, but that's pretty cool that it crosses instances

Sometimes you gotta play the tape back real quick and re-listen with your echoic memory

You're right, the pressure gauge shouldn't change without a leak or temperature change (Boyle's Law and such). But it's hard to have a 100%, no-leak extinguisher. There's plenty of points of failure to keep the thing pressurized, and the leak could be imperceptible (over months) or a rapid failure

And you wanna keep contents from settling as well, so you don't just spray gas when trying to use it. So you mix it a bit and inspect the gauge every so often, because you don't want it to fail when you need it most

Ideally, it shouldn't lose pressure. But also ideally, you don't have a fire that requires an extinguisher in the first place

But yes, you're right on that one. "Settling" of the fire-retardent wouldn't cause a pressure change. It's just part of the safety inspection to check the gauge as well as to "mix" it... keeping it ready to go

Cruel and unusual much?

That's a hell of a way to make... a point

Does decimate actually mean to place a decimal?

That a nice-looking stick ya got there

IIRC, your body only uses one receptor to feel cold or wet, and than uses other sensory signals to try and determine the difference
