Good question. Complexities I can think of is the massive power that needs to flow between battery and motor requires a very big plug that needs to be removed and placed again 2 often. And that the cooling design of the battery is in the way of the modularity of the battery which makes it more complex to design

Indeed, it's actually Wattpeak. For my work I make a difference between actual Watts and solar Wattpeak. I normally multiply by 0,75 to get the MAX power. This max power only occurs around noon as the sun goes up and down again. For energy in my home (Lithuania) I hope to get in the summer with 1kwh/M2/day from the solar panels.

There are geological overlays graphs available that give indication on how much kWh you can get. Solar atlas is one of them. Look for kWh/kWp, multiply it by your solar installation size and you have your average available intake of energy. You can find the kWh/kWp on average per year,month and day. So you know in winter that you produce a lot less than summer

Working on irrigation to all corners of my piece of land. Digging meters and meters and putting HDPE pipe connectors with water sockets. Digging is heavy work but I needed a workout actually

Ah, that sucks 1 step forward and back at the start

Installing electricity lines are always finicky and cost me also a lot of effort. I understand your procrastination. Last week I have separated installing electricity lines by one line per evening (really one box and a line + the other side button/socket). And this helped greatly in overcoming the great effort of fixing stuff after work and dinner. The streak eventually ends and this week Factorio had me snatched up unfortunately.

They were not dying to find out, I hope?

The same here, thinking of how to make a door in wooden interior for electric installation has gotten me almost insane. So many choices. And then comes the hinges, do I use the ones I have for recycling or new, hiding the hinges but that means more complexity. There is not much space and all I use are 2,5x5cm wood lengths. It required quite some though processes if it is not standardized. Also I'm too shoddy and impatient for nice clean sharp finish. Luckily this style is consistence though.

I'll try to share some pictures as that adds to the depth of the conversation

Only I would expect the design would not be 3 dimensions as you asked but mostly all forces in one plane 😁

A cool. That is a known wide spread design. This is a very high force, I'm impressed. But it will come at a cost of displacement correct? We aim to make brickets for cooking fuels and we have a lot of groundnut shells. These groundnut or peanut shells have a a lot lignin so it is possible with wetted mass (softening)and perhaps heating with fire (lignine becomes like a glue at 200degC). After that the brickets are sundried. The bricket shape could be like icehocky pucks or at least the shape to cook with.

I think the wooden design is not that interesting to generate, but with a pellet release and refilling in one lever go (or two steps). That would be an interesting puzzle, yes?

I follow this person already for a while, very interesting things he come up with

For work in Malawi I am thinking of introducing a bricket press to make brickets from biomass. One person must pull a lever and a piston is pressing biomass into a cylinder and compresses it. The end of the stroke should be stronger and less fast. And with returning of the lever the pressed bricket or pellet is pushed out and new biomass is inserted. It can be an interesting design from scratch and nice context? It would be challenging to make it convenient for the person while large pressing forces are reached (5000n)

Indeed, the man is painting the grass green.
