Target 4000
I created a page to share what I’m doing to try and keep my annual electricity consumption below the 4000kWh mark (And because I’m a nut). It didn’t format very well here, so click this link to view it in a layout I had more control over. Target 4000

Disc Brake Pads – Construction, Selection and Break-In
From: The Ducati Garage Tech articles.
Most of you will have to replace your bike’s brake pads at least once during your lifetime — unless your idea of riding is pushing your bike back-and-forth in your living room, Flintstone-style.
As you wander into your local dealer or thumb through the pages of your favorite catalog, you’ll find many different brake pad manufacturers, such as Ferodo, DP, Galfer, and EBC. The problem is selecting which pad best suits your riding style and conditions. Other than the a few lines of marketing blurb on the back of their packaging, there’s not a lot of information available on how to differentiate pads from one another.
Why would I try and save water?
I hate paying my water bill. I’ve just paid my tri-annual ‘Services Account’. Although I don’t mind paying for the water. There is no financial incentive for me to bother to try and save water.
The cost of installing and plumbing up a rainwater tank vs. what is available in the form of rebates is a joke. The out of pocket charges are huge. The ‘Services Charges’ remain the same, and the drop in town supplied water charges is negligible.
The government offered a $2000 cash back grant for fitting an LGP system to a car. With some installations only costing $2500 it was only a $500 out of pocket expense. The price of LPG is a lot cheaper than petrol so there are some substantial on going savings to be made too.
Yet try and save water a ‘precious resource’ and there is no financial benefit to be gained, only extra expense.
