inverters

[Sidders]

well thanks!!!!
you lot have turned a really useful thread about inverters into a bun fight about operating systems that only you are interested in, if you want to talk about linux line dancing whatever it is your arguing about start another thread with that title so we all don't keep seeing another reply on collettes inverter thread and dip in to see if its information we need. HAPPY EASTER, ANDY

XNU is the computer operating system kernel developed at Apple Inc. since December 1996 for use in the macOS operating system and released as free and open-source software as part of the Darwin operating system. It is also used as the kernel for the iOS, tvOS, and watchOS operating systems.

This article is about the operating system. Linux (pronounced [SUP]i[/SUP]/ˈlɪnəks/ LIN-əks[SUP][9][/SUP][SUP][10][/SUP] or, less frequently, /ˈlaɪnəks/ LYN-əks[SUP][10][/SUP][SUP][11][/SUP]) is a Unix-like computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel,[SUP][12][/SUP] an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds.[SUP][13][/SUP][SUP][14][/SUP][SUP][15][/SUP] The Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to describe the operating system, which has led to some controversy.


Looks to me that Linux the OS predates iOS by about 5 years.

Hmmm written in a thread about inverters Yet I don't see the word inverter used once, I am going to get a Linux to power my toaster it seems they are better than sliced bread

I use a small 12-20v inverter to power my tablet which is Android.

And every other operating system is based on an earlier system. Means nothing.

The fact is that the statement that OSX was first is simply the opposite of the truth.

Read it anyway you like. Facts say different.


edit...I will just put here again

[FONT=q_serif]OSX is based on NeXTStep, the operating system for [/FONT][FONT=q_serif]NeXT Computer[/FONT][FONT=q_serif], a company Steve Jobs founded in 1988 after he left Apple. NeXTStep was BSD 4.3 Unix implemented on a Mach microkernel. When Apple bought NeXT and made Jobs the CEO again, he brought in the NeXT team to fix the badly broken Mac 9 operating system, which used cooperative rather than preemptive multitasking and was not fully 32 bit. They effectively virtualized the old Mac OS, implementing the Cocoa layer to deal with the system calls that weren't 32 bit clean and hiding the old-fashioned multitasking inside virtual boxes. [/FONT]

[FONT=q_serif]So not only does the core of OSX predate Linux by several years, it was more technically sophisticated and advanced for a long time as well.

and again......not only does the core of OSX predate Linux by several years ...............

edit 2 .......so has Linux not been changed in 20 odd years? Is it not based on an earlier version? Hmmmmm how many different chocolate bars has Linux had?[/FONT]

so just to update everyone..... i have now replaced two different amped leisure batteries with two new leisure 110amp Alpha batteries. The wiring has been redone to connect the batteries to the electrical/solar system, (both batteries' cables are now fused) my laptop has been hardwired to the new leisure battery (with a switch and a fuse and a USB socket) and andyjanet replaced some lighting for me.

and up to now the new batteries are behaving impeccably.... on EHU i charged them up a little bit after installation and got them up to 14.5v whilst the engine was running, and two hours later they were 13v and the most important thing for me is that they are not losing power ..... they have been 13v now for 48 hours and the solar panel is reading its maxim....

so i am one happy bunny right now..... i am off in the van in 10 days time and the final test will be when i am out in the wilds of ROI ....

so all the advice and help you guys and gals gave me earlier on seems to have borne fruit.

i also have a slightly higher payload now because andyjanet has removed - the heavy yellow 110v electrical converter, and my local electrical guy removed a very heavy 240v inverter, and one leisure battery.

onwards !!!!
