  • I used them mainly for 5+ years, they work pretty well, they definitely don’t last forever like most LED bulbs claim.

    The biggest problem I ran into was other people, even my wife would still flip switches off which made them kind of pointless.

    They work good in lamps but as far as places with obvious switches go, I would get smart switches instead.




  • Yes, napping in the flight deck is a problem. The point of having two pilots is redundancy, if you incapacitate one of them, what’s the point?

    It’s not an outrageous requirement to be conscious during a duty day.

    Sure, when you are in cruise, it’s a low threat phase of flight, but if you need a nap in cruise, chances are you were fatigued when you departed.

    A much better system is to allow pilots to remove themselves from duty, without repercussions, when they are fatigued.








  • I don’t have any personal experience with clover, but I would bet it has better traffic tolerance than wild violet.

    When I was looking into alternatives to grass, I was considering micro-clover, but in the end I settled on good old grass.

    When taken care of correctly, I could get away with mowing about once a week on average. This was with no watering and minimal fertilizing. And I still had people stop on the sidewalk to complement it.
