No, the tobeco and sxk, and from what's being said in the kf5 thread the sjmy is good too. Those are the ones I'm referencing.
I've got 2 sxk coming on a delayed due to restocking FT order.

I take it the sjmy one is the $15.37 one on FT

I do keep separate spreadsheets for atty rebuilds and liquid mixing. I find both handy, the rebuild spreadsheet for atty performance and the mixing spreadsheet for liquid consumption and keeping supplies properly stocked.

Then there's the battery charge spreadsheet. I track every charge of every IMR and LiPO. Not sure why, probably OCD compulsion or something.

For anyone interested...

Tobeco KF5's are $16.50 ea for silver in qty under 20. $18.50 for black. A buck cheaper in qty 21-100. I got 5 of each (10 total) and it came out to about $23 ea (or $22 for silver, $24 for black) after shipping and pp fees. They took 5 business days to ship but it came in 3 days. They also have spare parts and glass sections. You can probably mix some KM3's into your order or any of their other products as long as your order is over $200.

The humidex (short for humidity index) is an index number used by Canadian meteorologists to describe how hot the weather feels to the average person, by combining the effect of heat and humidity. The humidex is a dimensionless quantity based on the dew point.
Steamer going to be making more steam while Tom toasts.

That's called the "feels like" temperature here. Personally, I just look at the thermometer and go by that. We've had "heat index" readings here over 100 last week with more coming this week. According to my little weather station it's 90 right now with a heat index of 94 and a "feels like" of 96. I say it's just $@&&^ hot out there.

Being native to Southwest Missouri when I was in New Mexico for a few months I took exception to the locals saying 112 was hot since it felt like 90 back here. When we get to triple digits it's stifling and an old buddy that now lives a couple hundred miles south in Arkansas said we have it good here in MO.

110 in Texas! you can keep that, I would rather put up with the cold we get here in the winter.
You can shovel the snow or cut the lawn, 6 of 1 or 1/2 dozen of another :(
When it's cold I can wear a jacket, problem solved :) It's been hot as Heck here all summer, I don't mind the summer weather but when it gets so hot that it's totally uncomfortable to be out side at all, it sucks :( I guess you's who live in hot climates get used to it, but Us up here aren't, & any thing above 90 is too hot for me :)

Yup, humidity can really make the difference on a hot day. Here in rural upstate NY in mid-summer during the peak heat of the year, the "dog days of summer", it can be bearable if the humidity is low. We'll get 95 - 100+ days, have a short cloud burst, once the sun comes back out and the temp goes back up it's absolutely miserable, you can see the haze of humidity in the air. Around here on days like that you'll hear folks say, "it's so humid you can cut it with a knife", a term I'm sure is used elsewhere as well. On those days you'll sweat like a pig while sitting in the shade. :laugh:
