hpr4243 :: Hand Warmer, long term product review

Long term product review of my electric hand warmer. Inspiration from Ken Fallon during OggCamp

Background

Ken suggested at Oggcamp to do a long term product review of my hand warmer.

Product information

  • The model: OCOOPA 10,000 mAh capacity

  • Purchase date: December 2020

  • Cost: £25

  • Description: It has a single button used to turn it on and to adjust the heat level.

  • It has three different USB sockets. These are used when either charging the hand warmer or using it as a power bank to charge other devices.

Fast charge model from Ocoopa. My model charges slower which might be gentler on the battery. Actually the real reason I bought the slow charge model was it was cheaper

Amazon seem to sell the model I have and amazingly it’s still £25!

Story

During OggCamp I mentioned to Ken that I had an electric hand warmer and he asked me if it was any good. He suggested I do a long term product review of it. So here is my review

I do lots of dog walking and suffer from cold hands.

I've had different hand warmers over the years:

  • Ones that you boil in water. Don’t last long
  • One that is activated by removing from its packet. Lasts for many hours actually too long. They seems very wasteful as they are single use.
  • Zippo hand warmer works well but is a faff to setup and sometimes goes out.

This electric hand warmer is by far the best solution I've found.

It saved me twice during OggCamp as I used it on two occasions to top up my phone. When arriving and leaving OggCamp.

This was the first time I’d used the hand warmer to charge anything. I was very glad it worked.

At the time of purchase I was rather sceptical about the whole idea of electric hand warmers.

The batteries are not used in ideal conditions. They get very hot and when in use a lot of current is drawn from them.

My Hand warmer is now almost 4 years old and is still going strong with no noticeable degradation in capacity.

It has a rated capacity is 10,000 mAh. The highest charge it achieved was about 1 year into use. It accepted 8034 mAh of charge. I haven’t checked again since November 2021. However it still continues to last many hours / multiple dog walks.

I always get a bit nervous over the summer months as it is left for a number of months unused. Luckily living in Scotland I don’t need to wait long until the weather gets cold. Did I mention before about the horrible weather in Scotland?

How I look after the battery

  • Always wait for the battery to return to room temperature before putting it on charge.

  • Don’t leave the hand warmer for more than a few days at 100% charge.

  • Try not to completely flatten the battery. If you do flatten the battery then charge it up soon afterwards.

  • If storing it for a number of months then try to store it at approximately 50% charge.

HPR Updates

  • There has been a lot of activity this month on the Gitea repos with rho`n catching up on outstanding bugs. We also had a lot of changes due to the ongoing Internet Archive outage that is still impacting us. A quick fix was to host the 10 day feed directly from the HPR server, but since then we have made all the media available on the HPR Community Content Delivery Network.

  • We will have three sources but if you meet the requirements for hosting, and wish to help out please get in touch.

    • 24/7 Home Service
    • Fixed IP address
    • Unlimited bandwidth
    • Fast > 500mb/sec upload
    • Large > 1T of storage
    • Permission from your ISP to run a web server
    • Contact information known to the Janitors
    • Optional: UPS
  • We added a html link to the comments page to provide direct feedback from any app that supports it. Eg: gPodder opens Firefox at the comment form.

  • We have consolidated a lot of repositories on Gitea, removing some and moving others. https://repo.anhonesthost.net/HPR

  • Documentation is now available and includes:

    • Community Content Delivery Network (CCDN) A location to track the deployment of the HPR Community Content Delivery Network, that provides a mirror network for our content.
    • HPR Website Design This is literally in the whiteboard phase of the HPR website redesign.
    • Podcatcher and Podcasting Platform Compatibility Where we can track Compatibility of the clients subscribed to our feeds.
    • Useful Resources Where we can link to other free culture sites that provide useful services.
    • Requested Topics Where we can track topics that have been requested, and link to shows that addressed them.
    • Workflow issues.

Message from Dave Morriss

  • I am planning to "retire" from the Hacker Public Radio Janitorial Team. I have been helping to administer HPR for over 12 years now. I first offered help to Ken in 2012 in response to an appeal he made. We met at OggCamp in that year, and I joined the Community News recording for episode 1066 in September 2012. My first show was 1091 in October that year.

  • I will turn 75 in December 2024, and am finding that I don't have the energy to do as much as I could when I first joined. I also want to be able to devote more time to the various personal projects I have.

  • I plan to consolidate all my scripts on the HPR Gitea repositories, and document all the processes I have been looking after. I want to have completed the handover by the end of March 2025.

  • I will continue as an HPR host for as long as I can after that.

  • I have had a wonderful 12 years as an HPR Janitor and will always look back on it with great pleasure.

hpr4235 :: What Is Plain Text Programming?

In which I go into detail about what I mean when I talk about a Plain Text Program.

Episode 3 - What Is A Plain Text Program?

What Is A Plain Text Program?

Today I'm going to go into more detail about what I mean when I say Plain Text Program. I want to emphasize that this is just me. Others may have different ideas on this topic. This is how I try to write Plain Text Programs. I will feature other people's work that I still consider to be Plain Text Programs that do not follow all of these guidelines.

I want to thank the hosts on the monthly HPR Community News podcast for inspiring me. They had questions. I also want to thank those making comments. I'm new to Hacker Public Radio and I will try to be more timely responding to comments in the future.

What Is A Plain Text File?

Text files are usually edited in a text editor or in a word processor and saved with the .txt extension. They consist of a string of characters. Text files can be divided into lines using the newline character, \n, or the carriage return and newline characters, \r\n. You don't have to type these characters. Your editor puts them in for you.

Text files do not have to use the .txt extension. Most programming files, like .php or .c files are plain text. I will only be discussing programs that are open source and that store their code in text files.

Plain text configuration files often have no extension. For my Plain Text Programs I use config.inc.

There is no difference between text files and plain text files. People often say plain text files to distinguish them from word processor files like .doc or .odt files.

Plain Text Programs use text files to store text like a title or a blog post. When I talk about Plain Text Programs I also mean something more than this. That's what this podcast is about.

No Database?

Plain Text Programs do not use a database like mysql or postgres. Also the file system does not imitate a database, creating keys, indexing, etc.

Instead the file system performs the database functions by accessing files which can be text files, graphics files, or other files. These files can be all in one directory or in multiple directories in a single directory tree.

If password security is required in a Plain Text Program that runs on the internet I make an exception to the single tree rule to allow passwords to be stored outside of the webspace.

So the assets a Plain Text Program accesses are just files in the file system.

No HTML Or Other Markup Required

I have no rule against allowing html or other markup. But I do not assume that the maintainer knows how to do this or wants to learn it. The reason I started writing Plain Text Programs was to avoid html markup. I want to be able to type text files, save them, and upload them, without being concerned about anything except the text itself.

The text files holding the content are written in block paragraph style with a blank line between paragraphs. Text files are not required in a Plain Text Program but most Plain Text Programs do use some text data which should be stored in text files.

If this is a web application, links can be copied and pasted from the browser with no additional markup required.

Other assets in the directory, like .gif, .jpg, or .png images, display automatically.

I use the file names for meta data like title, caption, or sort order. I can also sort chronologically using the file timestamps.

If there is a hierarchy of directories the program can use the directory name of the child directories for the link text. For instance the Delta Musicians directory tree can have a Table Of Contents at the top level that lists the musicians in alphabetical order. Each musician gets their own subdirectory and the name of that subdirectory is used to generate the link and link text for that page.

Then, each page can use Dirt Simple Photo Gallery and the program generates the caption from the image's file name.

All configuration is also done in a text file. I use a well documented config.inc file that initializes php variables. The maintainer of the application is never required to edit source code.

Does Plain Text Mean There Is No GUI Interface?

No. I write mostly web apps so they run in the browser interface. Also, Plain Text Programs do not require a GUI. It could run in a terminal or as a cron job. The program could play a music playlist or run a slideshow with no input at all.

What Do I Have To Know To Maintain A Plain Text Program?

The maintainer of the program will have to be able to 1. Create and edit text files in a text editor or word processor 2. Copy and paste links, iframe embeds, file names, titles, etc. 3. Rename files 4. Upload and download with ftp

Executive Summary

A Plain Text Program does not use a database like sql. Instead it stores the assets in the file system and accesses them using the file system.

A Plain Text Program does not require html or other markup. Text assets are written in block paragraph format. If the maintainer prefers to use a word processor instead of a text editor that's fine as long as the files are saved as text files with the .txt extension. Most word processors support this.

Plain Text Programs can support links if the links are copied and pasted into the text file with no markup required.

Plain Text Programs can support iframe embeds if the embed code is copied and pasted onto its own line in the text file.

All of the assets for a Plain Text Program are stored in a single directory tree. This is one of the main advantages of Plain Text Programs because it makes them easy to backup and restore so they are very portable. I sometimes make an exception to this if I want to save a password on a webserver outside of the webspace.

A Plain Text Program uses the file and directory names for meta data like titles, captions, or sort order. The file timestamps can be used for chronological sorting.

All configuration is done by editing a well documented text file. The maintainer should not have to edit the program code.

The maintainer should be allowed to edit the program code. I will only discuss open source programs that store the program itself in text files.

More Questions?

I thought so. Comment on Hacker Public Radio or at Gamer+DBN. I will include links in the show notes.
