    Beretta BB airgun - opinions?

    If you're buying an airgun because it's fun and cheap to shoot, that's great.&nbsp; If you are buying it expecting to be 'safer' against anything larger or more aggressive than a small dog, then you're making a mistake.&nbsp; <br>Since you already have guns at home, if you feel you want some...

    Revisiting Theo's solar install

    Just a quick note about the wires from the solar panel to the MPPT...
