![]() Monitor up to two batteries, with the additional input letting you measure the voltage of a second battery, temperature of midpoint voltage of the main battery. Pros: Victrons smart BMV-712 battery monitor boasts all the features of the BMV-702 with the added benefit of Bluetooth connectivity. ![]() Which relay contact to use for controlling the contactor coils, depends on whether the contactor needs to operate in a Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) configuration. Victron BMV-712 Smart: Under 300, 500 Amps. The Alarm Expander relays A and B are combined in order to control the ‘open (reset)’ and ‘close (set)’ coils from a dual coil magnetically latching contactor. The Alarm Expander also has the capability to be used as a relay contact. This kit can be used in case the application requires each alarm type to be assigned to a different relay contact. The ePRO Plus 2-Channel Alarm Expander Kit adds two additional alarm relays to your ePRO Plus device via the Quicklink port. ePRO PLUS Alarm Output Expander (EN5093120 Optional) The fused supply wire and the QuickLink cable are both included in the package, avoiding the need for a separate connection kit. Pair with solar and recharge with sunlight to keep your appliances running for days. Unlike generators, Powerwall keeps your lights on and phones charged without upkeep, fuel or noise. Additionally, the battery minus cable must be interrupted in order to insert the shunt into the high current circuit. Powerwall is a battery that stores energy, detects outages and automatically becomes your homes energy source when the grid goes down. The installation time is minimal, requiring only one supply wire to the intelligent shunt base and a single ‘QuickLink’ cable between the shunt base and the control/display unit (CDU). So any lead- or lithium based battery from 12V up to 48V can be monitored. The ePRO PLUS battery monitor can measure DC currents up to 600Amps (500Amp continuous) and voltages up to 70Vdc. The inputs for battery bank 2 and 3 can also be configured for other purposes, like mid-point voltage measurement, keyswitch input, setup lock or backlight control. The ePRO PLUS can monitor up to three battery banks. ![]() Then, we’ll explore how to choose the right type of solar battery for you. Here, we look at the four main solar battery types: lithium-ion, lead acid, nickel cadmium, and flow. The ePRO PLUS is compatible with lead based and Lithium batteries (LiFePO4). Luckily, solar batteries are one of the more straightforward decisions you will have to make when installing a DIY solar system. It also offers a large amount of additional features to optimally supervise your battery system and control external equipment.

It consists of an intelligent shunt and a remote control display unit. The ePRO PLUS is our latest generation, highly advanced battery monitor. Features ePRO PLUS High Precision Battery Monitor ![]() Both Russian President Vladimir Putin and the head of the Russian Orthodoc Church, Patriarch Kirill, condemned the move and broke off relations with the Constantinople Patriarch. Indeed, as a result of the split, Russia lost property, priests, believers and, crucially, its spiritual and symbolic authority over Ukraine. The creation of an independent Orthodox church in Ukraine ended more than 300 years of dominance of the Moscow-based church. For Ukraine, it was a key moment, as it represented another step away from political, economic and religious subservience to Russia. It meant that for Constantinople, which adheres to a strict “one country, one church” principle, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine – loyal to Kyiv – was now the only canonical Ukrainian Orthodox church. The process was ratified in a ceremony in Istanbul (still referred to as Constantinople in Orthodox circles) on Orthodox Christmas Eve, 2019, when the Metropolitan of Kyiv, Epiphanus I, received Tomos from Bartholemew, the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. Ukraine has long held valid concerns that the Moscow-affiliated Ukrainian Orthodox Church poses a security threat, and has instead promoted the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, which in 2019 was granted “autocephaly” - the status of a hierarchical Christian church whose head bishop does not report to any higher-ranking bishop- by the Patriarch of Constantinople, the symbolic “first among equals” of the world’s Orthodox churches. ![]() Dmitriy Medveedev, a former president and prime minister, labelled Zelensky and the Ukrainian authorities as “enemies of Christ and the Orthodox faith”. Russia’s response was immediate and predictable. The truth about the status of the Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine which is one of the main reasons for the Russian invasion on February 24th of 2022: In his nightly address about 3 weeks ago, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky said that he wanted a law that would “make it impossible for religious organisations affiliated with centres of influence in the Russian Federation to operate in Ukraine”, referring to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church affiliated to Moscow. ![]() ![]() May overlap with Atomic F-Bomb for extra emphasis. This trope is an intersection of Sophisticated as Hell and Conservation of Ninjutsu related to O.O.C. This trope IS applicable if it's for a case of unusually strong swearing or of the party that uttered the quote isn't exactly known to be dirty-mouthed. Note that when using this trope in the context of the quote, DON'T attach it to every single time said quote contains "fuck", "shit", etc. For subtitles, this crosses over into Spice Up the Subtitles, unless the expletive used by the translator actually is said in the original dialogue, as is known to happen. These languages may have levels of politeness which serve the same purpose (again, Japanese), and translations often take advantage of the dub/sub language's expletives to give the same feeling. Seemingly equivalent words may be used similarly, but without the impact of an actual expletive (for example, although the Japanese word kuso is translated as "shit", its profanity level is more along the lines of "crud" and is often used in children's shows by child characters without raising alarm). In some languages, however, expletives do not actually exist or are so uncommonly used and/or offensive that they are not allowed in the media. Similarly, in the United States, the F word is only known to have appeared in games with an M rating. In fact, the only words allowed in the PEGI 12 and lower categories are just mild swears like "hell" and "damn" (sometimes, however, the word "shit" can appear in 12-rated games). In Europe, a single F-word can easily result in a PEGI 16 rating. The same can't be said about video games, however. In many European countries, swearing is rarely considered an issue when it comes to film ratings - for example, Silver Linings Playbook, which has about seven dozen F words, was rated "tous publics" (equivalent to the MPAA's "G") in France, and children as young as six could watch it in the Netherlands. The word "Scheiße" ("shit") and its variations are almost always used in exactly the same way as the word "fuck" in English. Although like many other English words, the word "fucking" exists with only a minor variation in German ("ficken"), it's only used as a verb and almost never as a curse word. "Bloody", "cunt", "arse" and "twat", just to name a few words, have very different connotations on the two sides of the Atlantic - and that's just the differences within a single language. (Similarly, on television, a single F word guarantees at least a TV-14 L rating, and multiple uses are very likely to bump the rating up to TV-MA L.) As such, the writers will only have the characters curse when it actually means something.Īlso, when Unusual Euphemism is normally in play in a work, having "real" oaths appear can have the same effect.ĭue to the nature of language, this trope is prone to Values Dissonance about what words are appropriate. If it's used up to two or three times, each in a non-sexual context, it usually stays PG-13 so long as it lacks any other content that would warrant an R rating. If a movie uses the F word more than two or three times or in a sexual or aggressive way, it can easily get an R rating. It's usually intended to show that shit just got real serious.Īnother variant is when a movie limits its swearing-in order to keep from getting an R rating, and so is forced to place it very strategically. A Precision F-Strike is when a character suddenly swears in an uncharacteristically strong manner, or when a swear is unexpectedly used in a work with mild language. “Anna did a sample chapter of the first of the Condor Heroes books and I sent it out to various publishers. Legends of the Condor Heroes by Jin Yong, translated by Anna Holmwood.īuckman bought the rights and sold them on to a British publisher after meeting Holmwood and discovering how little of the series was available in English. ![]() Cha, who is now 93 and lives in seclusion, created a vast imaginary world over 15 novels, which spawned films, games, comics and television shows. They became the biggest Chinese publishing hit of the last century. The plots were fictional but the historical background was real. ![]() A founding editor of the Hong Kong daily newspaper Ming Pao, in the 1950s he put together a set of stories charting the progress of a young martial arts fighter during the Song dynasty and serialised them. A novel in the wuxia, or fighting hero, tradition, it was written under the pen name Jin Yong by Chinese journalist, Louis Cha Leung-yung. Under attack from the Jurchen Jin dynasty, the future of the entire Chinese population rests in the hands of a few lone martial arts exponents. Set in China in 1200, A Hero Born tells of an empire close to collapse. “So, of course, I felt a great weight of responsibility in translating them – and even more as publication draws near.” “These books are read by so many Chinese people when they are teenagers, and the work really stays in their heads,” Holmwood told the Observer. “Jin Yong was in the top 10, though I’d never heard of him nor did I read Chinese,” he said this weekend.Ĭomparisons with Tolkien or George RR Martin might sound overblown, but in China, Hong Kong, Vietnam and Taiwan, Jin Yong’s works are classics, loved like fairytales or national legends. ![]() Louis Cha Leung-yung aka Jin Yong.Īgent Peter Buckman, who sold the rights to the series to the publisher, came across the works almost by chance as he searched the internet for “bestselling authors”. Her British publisher, MacLehose Press, plans a 12-volume series, with Holmwood’s first volume, A Hero Born, due out in February. It is a task that has already defeated several translators, yet Anna Holmwood, 32, from Edinburgh has managed it – or at least the first volume. Now, for the first time, the beginning of his extraordinarily popular series, Legends of the Condor Heroes, has been translated into English for a mainstream readership. In the west, however, his name is barely known, largely due to the complexity of the world he has created and the puzzle that has posed for translators. The world’s biggest kung fu fantasy writer, Jin Yong enjoys huge popularity in the Chinese-speaking world. For the books of Guo Jing’s creator, the author known as Jin Yong, have already sold more than 300m copies. ![]() In fact, this Chinese fighting hero is already part of phenomenon that can match both of those epics in size. Guo Jing, a young soldier among the massed ranks of Genghis Khan’s invading army and son of a murdered warrior, may soon become as familiar a questing literary figure as Frodo Baggins from Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, or Jon Snow from Game of Thrones.

Chevy should have taken the lead of the Ion Red Line and made the Recaro seats standard. The SS interior stands apart from ordinary Cobalts with two-tone leather seats and door trim, and with SS badges stitched into the seatbacks and on the left side of the dash. Steering is nicely weighted, pedal placement is optimized for downshifting and made sweeter still by a direct short-throw Getrag five-speed manual gearbox. Like the Ion, the front-drive Cobalt SS handles its 205 horses with minimal amounts of mid-corner torque steer. Inexplicably, the Ion Red Line beats the 125 feet the Cobalt needs to halt from 60 mph by seven feet. Handling is fairly neutral, with a hint of understeer quickly erased with a bit of trail braking. This Cobalt is commendably stable through the cones, almost as fun as a Mini Cooper, says one editor. The Cobalt does trump its platform mate, the Saturn Ion Red Line, by 1.1 mph and 0.03 g, thanks mostly to 124 fewer pounds and stickier Pirelli PZero Rosso tires. Here, the Civic loses out again, but the Focus nips the SS in the slalom, faster by 0.3 mph. Handling is another strong Cobalt attribute, where the car posts an average speed of 47 mph through the slalom and 0.87 g on the skidpad. It may grow tiring over time, but it is certainly in tune with this car’s overall statement. The supercharger comes on song around 3000 rpm and is accompanied by a raspy exhaust note. That whips the Civic Si by 1.46 seconds and the Ford Focus SVT by 0.96 second.Īt the quarter-mile mark the Cobalt registers 14.91 seconds at 96 mph compared to the Civic’s 15.93 seconds at 87.4 mph and the Focus’ 15.72 seconds at 88.4 mph. But a major supercharger side effect is heat, which Chevy addresses with an oil cooler, sodium-filled exhaust valves, a larger cooling fan and radiator core, and pistons directly cooled by high-pressure oil jets.ĭrivers in the know will surely issue a challenge to this Cobalt, while those who have no idea what the SS badge means will no doubt be clued in by the car’s GTR-style rear spoiler, 18-inch wheels and front-mounted air-to-water intercooler.įor just such encounters-at the track, of course-drop the clutch at 2000 rpm, modulate the throttle to avoid tire hop, and 60 mph passes in 6.36 seconds. Yes, it has lower compression pistons, a forged crank and stronger aluminum casting, as you would expect. The SS packs a 2.0-liter, 205-hp 200-lb-ft inline four motivated by a roots-type Eaton supercharger set at 12 psi. But where the Z24 struggled among pocket rockets, Chevy’s new Cobalt SS seeks to fly. We’re talking driving incentive, the knowledge that somewhere on the showroom floor sits an affordable, stylish and spirited machine with a youthful attitude.įor much of the last decade the only thing GM could fire back at the likes of Honda’s Civic and Volkswagen’s Golf were the 150-hp J-body Chevy Cavalier Z24 and the Pontiac Sunfire GT. And no, we don’t mean zero-down and zero-percent financing. It’s been a long time since sport compact enthusiasts had incentive to visit a General Motors showroom. ![]() You can craft various types of equipment and armour using the resources found on the rather large map, from iron to gold and leather. V Rising is a third-person survival game with some MMORPG light mechanics with its multiplayer aspect. You do, however, have a free hand in what you would like to do, as well as how to take out enemies in the game’s great combat system, which I've explained further in the next section. That ranges from building a certain object for your castle to taking out various enemies. Instead of progressing by the story, in V Rising you progress in the game by completing various tasks assigned to you, with more opening up as you play the game. However, this could change once the game is out of early access And aside from the opening cutscene, there really isn't much else to go on beyond the goal of survival. That being said, survival games rarely have a story. The story right now is admittedly a little lacklustre for being the vampire-based game that V Rising is. I'll explain the nuances behind the castle building later on. To do so, you’ll need to construct your castle by placing walls within the proper boundaries and floors to increase your chances of survival. To avoid direct sunlight and spontaneous combustion, building your castle is crucial. Staying out of the sun is crucial in V Rising. ![]() You’ll have to craft various weapons, gear, utilities, and, of course, your castle.īeing a vampire isn’t all fun and games, though. In order to survive through the day, it goes deeper than just sating your hunger. When trying to avoid being hunted down by vampire hunters, you have the option of building the gothic castle of your dreams to not only protect yourself but to feed on poor, helpless creatures. The game gives you many ways to get on with surviving. V Rising's character customization provides a decent amount of hairstyles and faces, unfortunately, all look similar to each other. Still, you trudge on, and once you’ve created your character, you awaken in your coffin with only one task: survive. It doesn’t help that out of the twenty-seven options you have, not only are they similar, but they come across as bland or somewhat weird on your character. The character customization provides a good deal of hairstyles and faces, but sadly, they all look rather similar to each other. You begin the game by creating your character, which, unfortunately, because the game is still in Early Access, doesn't offer a stellar set of options. While there is the potential of the game facing changes, below are my thoughts on the game so far and why you should also sink your teeth into V Rising. Before long, I found myself absorbed in the universe and spending endless nights crafting and gathering. While this game is still in its Early Access state, by no means has the game disappointed. After watching the trailer and seeing the reasonable price on Steam, I was excited to get my hands on this vampire-esque Minecraft. I often find myself easily sidetracked or bored with games, but this game guarantees constant engagement and intrigue. From the building to the crafting, this was a pleasant change of pace, especially as someone who rarely plays survival games like these. ![]() I wasn’t sure what to expect when I loaded up the game for the first time, but I found myself instantly hooked soon after. This is going to be a shining example I link people to on both narrative in games, and free content out doing some larger AAA titles even in just a handful of minutes.V Rising, the new gothic vampire survival game that was recently released to Steam’s Early Access by Stunlock Studios, takes your survival game genre and puts you in the shoes of a newly awakened vampire. I used to call myself the "Recursive Rabbit" as I felt like my days looped into themselves.a rabbit hole into a rabbit hole into a rabbit hole. There was a crucial "oh shit" moment when the second door opened that almost made me cry. The metaphors in this at times felt too much like my inner thought process. Keep in mind Depression is a daily struggle for me, and I have done a few drastic attempts where I was in treatment for many months at a time after. This.surprised me. I like to stay current at the quality level of free games (been an avid freeware gamer since Flash was king) and you still managed to.yeah, surprise me. ![]() To learn more about the Craft Academy, email or call 60.
