    Most of the new alternators are CPU controlled now as well, so you cant just add another battery to your vehicle via a relay isolator and have your alternator charge it. You need a DC to DC convertor with a charger component to it suited for your additional battery to protect the smart alternator and your existing battery.

    They don't call it that but that's exactly what it is.

    Their wording sometimes is less than desired...

    I ran a few test strips to see how the water conditioner is working. It's working but not 100%. It does say it takes a while since it will pull all the old hardness off the pipes for a couple weeks.

    The incoming water is off the charts hard, the treated is doing it's job but I would like it to be little softer. The Reverse Osmosis which is what we drink from is A-OK.

    It doesn't get much better than George Jones. His voice just tears at your heart.
    My uncle Norb was a big fan. He got to meet George in Nashville. They were both in the bathroom taking a piss. When my uncle died in 2000 I put 2 music C.D.s in his casket. 1 was George Jones and the other was Johnny Cash.

    Almost nothing. it's like distilled water. It tastes way better. I make a lot of ice tea and with RO water it's clear. With city water its cloudy. We also use it for cooking.

    So sorry to hear this. Continued prayers for him and the rest of the family.

    Your advisors should be shot, or made to drive the cars around, wherever you guys need them.

    Hope he was at least wearing a mask

    I saw a news segment on that... hope it's soon
