Rather, large producers – most belonging to an exclusive industry association – decided which of them would be ‘permitted’ to dominate which markets. There were ‘gentlemanly’ rules about competition, which seldom revolved around price. At substations, it was virtually all porcelain.īy all accounts, the insulator industry of the day was in fact a cartel with only a few manufacturers dominating all markets in developed countries and beyond. About two thirds of the business was held by porcelain and one third by toughened glass. To begin with, only two technologies battled for market share on overhead lines. It should be noted at this point that the ‘insulator world’ of the 1980s was a far different industry than what one sees today. The three wanted to quantify world market size and growth as well as to get a better understanding of this business. The interest behind such a project lay in the recent management buyout of several European porcelain insulator factories by three Swedish entrepreneurs: Anders Bohm (a ‘sales guy’), Lennart Rundcrantz (a ‘financial guy’) and Peter Larsson (a ‘production guy’). The origins of INMR go back to the late 1980s, when a large European-based producer contracted a Canadian consulting firm to carry out research on the global market for electrical insulators. Reviewing the origins of INMR can be helpful in two respects: firstly, it will establish the truth of how this journal began and evolved into what it has become equally important, it is a way to thank some of the unique people who made INMR possible and without whose participation and support this journal may never have survived. ![]() Until now, I have resisted going into much detail when replying, thinking no one really cared or would bother to read a recounting of events.

Poorly maintained RV batteries give off even more noxious gasses, so if you don’t already know, learn how to maintain your RV batteries to prevent any build-up of gasses. Since vehicle batteries can emit noxious and explosive gasses, be sure to keep safety in mind and install adequate ventilation from the battery storage area to the outside of the RV. For example, this RVer’s travel trailer had an empty space behind the front cap that was perfect for storing RV batteries. If your RV batteries are mounted outside the rig, see if there is a safe space that can accommodate them inside the rig. Although you’ll need to lay out some cash to implement them, it’s an inexpensive investment compared to the cost of replacing RV batteries that can sometimes cost over $300 each. Here are three easy ways to avoid RV battery theft. However if you’re an active RVer and removing batteries is out of the question, you’ll find helpful battery theft prevention tips in the iRV2 Discussion Forums. Your best precaution to avoid RV battery theft is to remove the batteries from the rig when you’re not using it for any length of time. While all RVs are at risk of having the batteries stolen, those RVs kept in storage and unused for any length of time stand a greater chance of being affected. Deep cycle RV battery cores can fetch about $40 when taken to a recycling center. They’re easy to rip off just by cutting cables even the dumbest thief can quickly grab one and turn it in for quick cash. For example, one of the most commonly stolen RV items are RV batteries. ![]() If you’re new to RVing you might be surprised to learn what thieves will steal from your rig. ![]() ![]() ![]() On the top there’s the graphical IDE, and towards bottom we have Lua C++ bridge, C++ API featuring events, graphics, physics, network and audio.

![]() ![]() To my luck, it happened at the onset of a long ride. Issues encountered Perhaps the most annoying issue I encountered with the RadRhino was a flat tire (caused by one of those giant thorns from honey locust trees). I took the RadRhino every 300 km (187 miles) or so, to make sure everything was as it should be. In addition to checking stuff like tire pressure and the condition of the chain regularly and cleaning the bike after dirtier rides, you must also take it for a regular checkup at the bike shop (every 12 months for regular, daily use, and more frequently if you ride it hard). Give it a good wash, and you wouldn’t be able to tell this is a used bike, so yes, when Rad Power Bikes says they’re building quality bikes, they mean it. Not one of these issues is important or otherwise impacts functionality. The frame shows a few scratches, the pedals some wear and tear, and the color on the battery has come off on the sides. The battery is as new, both regarding charging times (5 to 6 hours) and range (which will vary according to weather and terrain, as well as payload). Always make sure you plan ahead and consider the range on it (55-88 km/34-55 miles), or if not, be prepared to sweat it out by pedaling if you run out of juice.Īfter all this time, the RadRhino holds up remarkably-including after a couple of mild falls on uneven ground (my fault, overconfidence) and one slightly more serious fall in the city (also my fault, exhaustion). The RadRhino offers you freedom because it brings you the confidence to go where you wouldn’t before, and this is especially true for occasional cyclists. My review sample came with two Fremont Pannier Bags-just perfect to pack for a picnic in the woods. The RadRhino is perfect for day-long rides outdoors with the family: during the strict lockdowns, I used it every weekend for that purpose, whenever the weather permitted. Whether you take it out to run errands around the city or pick up groceries, or even ferry a small child around, the RadRhino can substitute for the personal vehicle, as long as you’re willing to give it a try. ![]() Standing the test of time The RadRhino never stops being fun, and I can confirm that after one year and close to three months of riding it as often as I could. Depending on your overall tonus, you can ride it without motor assistance, just like you would a regular bike: it is a proper workout, but it’s not an impossible or dreadful option to contemplate. The RadRhino rides comfortably in the city and outside of it, but it was made for paved streets, back roads, and trails that's where it truly excels. Sure enough, you still have to account for its weight and size as you ride it, but it’s not a difficult task. ![]() But it also defies expectations in that it’s very smooth, fast and comfortable, and surprisingly nimble. ![]() The total payload is of 125 kg (275.5 pounds), which makes it perfect for anything from solo rides to hauling groceries and dropping off kids on school days-with the right accessories, of course.Īs I noted in the original review, the RadRhino stands out for its size and, because of it, is the kind of bike that draws attention wherever you take it. The bike comes with a standard integrated headlight (with ambient sensor) and taillight/brake light, front and rear fenders, and a rear rack. The bike has five levels of pedal assist (PAS) and a 7-speed cassette, a backlit LCD display for controls and stats, a torque option that you activate by pressing a button and twisting the handle, and rides on giant Kenda Juggernaut 26x4 tires, with K-Shield puncture-resistant liner. That means the top speed is 25 kph (15.5 mph) with pedal assist, but you can go as fast as you want on the condition you’re physically able to pedal faster. The initial experience The European version of the RadRhino 5 comes with the 250W brushless Bafang gear hub motor. Maybe it can help you make the best decision for your next e-bike. I got to see for myself, and here is my experience with it. So, how good of an investment is it really? The RadRhino is a €1,699 ($1,699) bike, so it’s not cheap, but it’s not painfully expensive either. The recently launched (then) fifth-generation model came with European specs: the 250W Bafang motor and the option to use torque only when pedaling. It’s just as understandable to get something that lasts more than a season.Ī little over a year ago, I received the RadRhino 5 (RadRover, in the U.S.) from Rad Power Bikes for a review. Even with the unprecedented rise in e-bike models, it’s okay not to spend real car money on an e-bike.

They’re also excellent for beginners and people with zero background in playing other musical instruments. Most models of button accordions are recognized for their portability. It can effectively play all kinds of songs that you usually play on a traditional piano accordion. This makes it different from the piano accordion, which comes with a piano-like keyboard on its right side. Button AccordionĪs its name suggests, the button accordion has several buttons on its melody side (usually the right). This arrangement puts the primary major chords in three adjacent columns. This easy-to-learn system uses rows of buttons arranged in a circle of fifths/fourths. The Stradella bass system is the most common layout of the button board for accordions. The right-hand side of the accordion uses the bisonoric system, while the left-hand side uses the Stradella bass system (also known as the standard bass). The British Chromatic accordion is special in mainstream and traditional Scottish music. That’s why they produce a different sound. Two different sets of reeds connect both sides. The melody side of the bisonoric accordion is usually played by the right hand, while the bass side is traditionally played by the left hand. The same thing happens if you push the bellows in. Unlike the Unisonic accordion, it creates two or more different notes or pitches, depending on the direction of the movement of the bellows.įor instance, if you pull out the bellows, it makes a different note or pitch. The bisonoric accordion is popularly known as the eight-bass bellows (‘oito baixos’) in Brazil’s northeastern region. For instance, it has a rectangular (as opposed to trapezoidal) and broader set of reeds.Īnd instead of being arranged in pairs, the reeds are usually attached in big groups to a standard plate, which is screwed to a reed block. The bayan holds some differences in construction from Western chromatic button accordions. Sterligov developed it in 1907 and named it after an old Russian poet-singer, ‘Boyan.’ The original bayan features 72 basses (with preset chords) and 55 treble buttons (4 rows). The bayan is a Russian name for any chromatic button accordion. The accordion can be chromatic or diatonic. The bandoneón is typically chromatic, meaning it has all twelve-octave notes. The main difference between the two instruments is the sound they produce. Meanwhile, you can adjust the straps of a lightweight accordion to allow it to rest lightly on one or both of your legs. You usually play the bandoneon by resting it on one or both of your legs. The accordion and bandoneón are both hand-held bellows-driven free-reed musical instruments. Initially, it was referred to as a “poor man’s accordion” and was usually a substitute for percussion and string instruments. Carl Friedrich Uhlig invented it in the early 18th century. The bandoneón (also spelled bandonion)-or button accordion-is a hand-held, bellows-driven free-reed instrument.
