Launchers: use boosters correctly!
How does the portable starter work?
In principle, the filling of a portable starter, commonly referred to as “jump starter”, “booster” or “launcher”, is not too different from the filling of the power bank, which today, in the era of fast-discharging smartphones, is in the pocket of every second person.
Chinese factory “SHIHE” Shanghai. Direct delivery of emulsifiers homogenizers!
The main difference between the “launchers” and telephone power banks is the extremely high current output of the battery, which allows for a short time to issue a current of several hundred amperes in peak, as well as the presence of protection against polarity reversal and short circuit. These devices are manufactured today by a variety of brands and have proven themselves well in the automotive environment, really helping out in situations when the battery has sat down and you need to go urgently.

Luck and Prejudice: Buy Lifan X60
What, where and how are we looking?
What is good about the X60 is the lack of the need to look for cars with successful engines and gearboxes: there is one box and one motor.

In general, the engine Lifan LFB479Q, obtained by a small alteration of toyotovskogo 1ZZ-FE, is not so bad. Thousands to 150 kilometers, he behaves quite well, although with a mileage of 100 thousand kilometers you can already begin to listen to the circuit. At the same age (about 150 thousand km), oil consumption can slightly increase, which is “cured” by replacing piston rings and oil scraps. Continue reading
Copying headlong: the secret three-axle all-terrain vehicles of the 1930s in the USSR
By that time, in the Soviet automobile industry, according to the principle “they are getting better and better”, the tendency of universal meaningless copying of available foreign machines, their units and components was firmly established. Without thinking twice, it was laid in the basis of the experimental design work of the Gorky Automobile Plant for high-speed three-axle cars for re-equipment of the Red Army with new types of transport and combat vehicles.

Lightweight three-axle chassis Ford-A Soviet assembly for recoilless gun
American Ford-A cars assembled in the USSR became the base of the first military tri-shorts, which were soon replaced by the production models GAZ-A and M-1, which also had overseas roots and were equipped with a second rear axle. Continue reading
