01:42:02 <Ampera> we used to plastic our windows, but it's honestly more trouble than it was worth for us
01:45:58 <coppice> T3sl4: is this double glazing for the desperately poor?
01:46:55 <Ampera> coppice, it's useful even if you have double paned windows
01:47:02 <Ampera> it's even better insulation
01:47:33 Join: jackbrown ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:47:57 <coppice> double glazing is being banned in favour of triple glazing in some building codes
01:51:36 <Ampera> I've never seen a triple pane window before.
01:53:26 <coppice> Try Switzerland. I think their entire national code has required triple glazing for new windows for some years
01:56:24 <Ampera> Well that's new windows, this house is 80 years old
01:56:36 <Ampera> and while the windows are newer than that, they are all double paned.

04:10:23 <jackbrown> why I never found the connector IEC 60320 C5 3 to solder or mount ?
04:13:02 <coppice> because you never looked very hard?
04:14:34 <jackbrown> coppice: where? On Aliexpress I never found, I mean to solder or to mount not already attached to a wire
04:15:02 <coppice> There are plenty around which panel mount and solder down to a PCB
04:16:09 <jackbrown> coppice: I need the inlet connector not the panel mount (Mickey mouse)
04:16:23 <jackbrown> coppice: https://media.ox.ee/pictures/scaled/9f/48/e/186355_800x600.jpg
04:17:23 <coppice> Is the C5 even defined for panel mounting that half? The C14 is, and its easy to get C14 panel mounting outlets.
04:20:09 <jackbrown> coppice: but C14 is different from C5, I need C5
04:21:42 <coppice> I don't see how you could have a panel mount C5 outlet, unless its something that sticks out in an ugly and fragile way.
04:22:05 <jackbrown> coppice: all the LAPTOP charger have C5 to C6 connection!!!
04:22:56 <coppice> Laptops chargers have the inlet side of the C5 on their panel, not the outlet
04:23:25 <jackbrown> coppice: yes of course they have the C6 inlet

04:24:38 <coppice> So, what you said about laptops is irrrelevant
04:24:40 <jackbrown> coppice: I need the C5 connector so I can solder on a wire
04:24:58 <jackbrown> coppice: I just need the C5 connector and I can't find any

06:01:54 <DHess_US> <jackbrown> why I never found the connector IEC 60320 C5 3 to solder or mount ?
06:02:11 <DHess_US> Because it is a bad idea to mount an AC power connector without strain relief.

11:28:52 <T3sl4> coppice: we used to have single pane ("double hung") windows here, then they replaced them with double-glazed windows. Now instead of cold wood, the extruded aluminum sashes ice over.
11:38:48 <DHess_US> Some of my windows are double hung.
11:40:16 <T3sl4> they must be very lucky.
12:15:07 <DHess_US> SpaceX launch coming up
12:59:08 <mrpackethead> Just the guy
12:59:11 <mrpackethead> T3sl4,
13:00:17 <mrpackethead> could you possibly use a thin layer of double sided FR as a RF sheild, similar to the way that a metal can is put on a pcb?
14:21:30 <DHess_US> FR? You mean FR4?
14:21:47 <DHess_US> Double sided clad board works fine as an RF shield. It even works excellent.
14:22:33 <DHess_US> I need to make a Dremel sized radial arm saw just to cut FR4 into strips and secitons for RF work.
15:39:40 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Anyone still use QuickRoute? https://t.co/NAZ0PhqqPv
16:34:30 <mrpackethead> yes, FR4
16:34:39 <mrpackethead> DHess_US, yews, FR4
16:34:55 <mrpackethead> I am lookign at somethign i'm making..
16:35:00 <mrpackethead> i need to sheild it
16:35:06 <mrpackethead> it will reduce some harmonics
16:35:29 <mrpackethead> I'm thinking i can make a custom cut FR4 Sheild

20:51:25 <T3sl4> mrpackethead, i'm doing an EMC job right now where that's one of the solutions
21:30:07 <K> hello
21:30:07 <EEVBlog> Hello there, K!
21:30:12 <K> \o/
21:35:27 <T3sl4> hi potassium
21:37:42 <K> that might be considiered an offhanded way to call someone a 'nanner
21:37:59 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/HP7lEHt.jpg
21:40:53 <T3sl4> think on the bright side... potassium is radioactive, that means you're hot ;)
21:42:22 <K> lukewarm
21:43:37 <T3sl4> detectable
21:43:51 <T3sl4> that is admittedly a low threshold when it comes to radiation though :P
22:23:12 <coppice> T3sl4: if your alumium window frames ice over, I assume they are at least 30 or 40 years old.
22:23:27 <T3sl4> brand new
22:24:17 <coppice> T3sl4: in Europe they stopped that problem in the 80s, by making the aluminium in two parts (inner and outer) with insulation in between
22:25:12 <coppice> T3sl4: in HK amd southern China the aluminium frames are still one big extrusion, but they don't have big icing or condensation issues in their climate
22:25:55 <T3sl4> they must've imported these from the cheapest place possible

23:28:55 <Yaakov`> We have a big, floor to ceiling bay window, original, from 1940. This winter I am constantly mopping up water to keep it from rotting. :(
23:30:03 <T3sl4> :/
23:30:33 <K> mmmmoist
23:30:37 * steve30 returns from the gym
23:30:37 <Yaakov`> That cold snap put some serious ice on all the panes.
23:31:17 * T3sl4 refreshes steve30 with a nice, iced coffee
23:31:35 <Yaakov`> Replacement is impractical so vigilance is the only answer. It is a really nice window, though.
23:37:47 * steve30 warms the coffee up in the kettle
23:40:06 <steve30> I got a card in the post for an address a mile away
23:40:29 <T3sl4> your mail service really sucks, doesn't it :P
23:41:00 <T3sl4> i get bits from neighbors from time to time, but getting junk so far off, so regularly, just seems... wrong
23:41:05 <steve30> Generally speaking, they are pretty good, although I've had a few delayed/missing items recently
23:41:41 <T3sl4> or wait, is it more your email that gets messed, i forget :P
23:42:04 <steve30> Well, this one is address to Fabian Way. I live on Fleming Way, and with the handwriting, and can see them getting it confused.
23:42:21 <T3sl4> oh, that's understandable then
