Bryan OrrHOST

And what's interesting is nowadays we often run higher voltages, and especially with resistive loads, when you run higher voltages, you're actually going to get more current.
Bryan OrrHOST
6:26
You're actually going to get more output as well because it works on both sides of Ohm's law and Watt's law when you do that because it's really just a fixed resistor.
Bryan OrrHOST
6:35
And some people are like, that's not true.
Bryan OrrHOST
6:37
It is absolutely true.
Spartan GrownPANELIST
62:22
I had to pull it, pull it up on the website.
Spartan GrownPANELIST
62:24
I don't know if you have it still pulled up, but, uh, it's probably close to 12 to 1500 Watts.
Spartan GrownPANELIST
62:28
I don't know the math off the top of my head, but the point or the reason why that is, is because each channel gets its own driver.
Spartan GrownPANELIST
62:35
And, um, The reason why it has so many wattages is because if at any time you wanted to run just one channel, we wanted to have enough wattage on that one channel so that you could turn it up and get enough PPFD, right? So our two
Jack GreenstockHOST

They're able to convert, I think like 93, 95, 97, some crazy high percentage with modern LEDs is actually being converted straight to light.
Jack GreenstockHOST
64:17
It all will eventually turn to heat.
Jack GreenstockHOST
64:19
If you're looking at like British thermal units, amount of Watts being put out into a sealed environment, a thousand Watts is a thousand Watts, right? So it's like 3,400 BTU or British thermal unit.
Jack GreenstockHOST
64:30
where LEDs, I think, have two main advantages, especially in the homegrower's perspective in a tent.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
16:40
So, so, and a good thing with that is you get a really good sense of your left, right balance, the leg balance.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
16:49
So if it's quite common that somebody has, if you have a FTP or a threshold power for 300 Watts, it's, it's not uncommon that one leg is pushing 147 and the other one is 153.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
17:02
And that might be fine, but it's usually a good thing to know how that is.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
17:08
And if it's too big difference to start kind of getting them more equal in capacity.

Fredrik EricssonGUEST
34:01
So using, like you said, to do some fatiguing unipedaling before you do other intervals or the other way around, you do your two-legged intervals because of course that's still going to be a bread and butter of your training.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
34:13
And then you add on, for example, if you do like three, five minutes intervals at that is a classical like VO2 max session.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
34:22
And you're, and when you do that, you're riding at 300 Watts, for example.
Fredrik EricssonGUEST
34:27
And when you, when you're done with that, you might do one or two more five minute intervals with unipedaling also at 150 watts per leg or maybe if it feels if you feel you can well then you do it at 160 or 170 maybe even higher
Norman AlvisHOST
59:29
Uh, I know it's the same with sprinting.
Norman AlvisHOST
59:32
Uh, you know, the best number I'll see on my trainer is maybe 1150 Watts in a sprint.
Norman AlvisHOST
59:39
And on the road, I might, uh, last year, I think I almost went to, I went to 1299 was my highest number.
Norman AlvisHOST
59:45
I want to say it was 1300, but, uh, to be fair to myself, uh, it wasn't.
speaker_2HOST
30:00
You know what I mean? And just have them there because why not? It's easy.
speaker_2HOST
30:04
You know what I mean? These things are when they're full power, they're easy and you don't need, you don't need 3000 Watts in every room.
speaker_2HOST
30:10
You know, you don't need 3000 Watts in your kid's room.
speaker_2HOST
30:12
Most likely you definitely don't need it in your bedroom.
speaker_2HOST
30:15
Um, your big power, you keep downstairs, really your living room and your entertainment sort of lighting generator.
Tim HainesHOST
13:01
And by pioneering autonomous control systems, FATCAT will enable small reactors to power mission-critical systems in remote environments, revolutionizing energy solutions for space exploration, undersea operations, and beyond.
Tim HainesHOST
13:15
While FATCAT explores compact reactors, another program in TAB's portfolio, called RADs to Watts, takes a completely different approach to enduring power.
Tabitha DodsonGUEST
13:26
At a very high level, RADS2WATTS is using nuclear radiation to drive electricity with direct energy conversion methods.
Tabitha DodsonGUEST
13:36
So that's as compared to indirect energy conversion, which is what we use now.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
50:18
So the other thing is they are quite old.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
50:21
And as you can imagine, also being data center parts, they pulled like 12 Watts a piece or something.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
50:25
Holy cow.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
50:26
It was a lot.
Scott ZimmermanGUEST
9:18
It generates, it's got same joules per second, are similar units of measure.
Scott ZimmermanGUEST
9:25
So it's unfortunate, but, and it tends to make it very hard to explain because people get glassy eyed over here talking about Watts and joules and all this other stuff, but it's really important.
Scott ZimmermanGUEST
9:38
And it's something that I've been doing optical design and modeling for 40 years.
Scott ZimmermanGUEST
9:45
And I never quite thought it through all the way to how light goes into the body, because in all the optical models that are out there, the assumption is that a photon comes in, gets absorbed, that's it.
NickHOST
3:20
And welcome back to your favorite podcast, The Underwhelming Podcast.
NickHOST
3:23
I'm the hostess with the mostest, the GWAT Jack Harlow, joined as always by my co-host, the fat electrician, the warden of Wattage, the prince of production, Blas is on the wheels, and we have in our presence two legends.
NickHOST
3:36
One of them, the leading contender, The reigning champ, honestly, as far as I'm concerned, white boy of the year, pop electrician, and, of course, his new friend of the show, Matt.
NickHOST
3:47
They were just telling us about their love affair.
Jeff WagHOST
5:36
is watts.
Jeff WagHOST
5:38
That's it.
Jeff WagHOST
5:38
Watts isn't an actual thing all by itself.
Jeff WagHOST
5:40
It's a combination of volts and amps.
Jeff WagHOST
5:43
So if you have a 12-volt system and you have 100 amps, that's 1200 watts.

15 MINS LATER

Jeff WagHOST
20:35
Volts is electrical pressure.
Jeff WagHOST
20:38
Amps is electrical flow.
Jeff WagHOST
20:40
Watts is a combination of the two, which is electrical power.
