![]() This book is such a delightful romp starring a nontraditional princess and some very nontraditional, traditional dragons who enjoy cherries jubilee and keep very unorganized treasure troves. When a headstrong princess runs away to work for the dragon king, adventure and hilarity ensue. And that is truly magic.įavorite Dragon Book: Dealing with Dragonsby Patricia C. Though different versions of the creatures greatly very, we share a cross-cultural understanding that they are all the same mythical beast. But dragons don’t exist just in England-they can be found all over the world, taking many forms and shapes, from the water dragons of Asia to the strange human-bodied beasts with multiple lizard-heads of Hungarian folktales. When you hear dragon, you might first think of the fire-breathing, winged kind, that fly and possibly fought against St. That’s why today I wanted to share my five favorite fantastical creatures, each paired with one of my favorite magical books. Now, as an adult, I have a perfect plump cat, (who I am sometimes convinced is actually an Animagus), but I still dream of the magical creatures I grew up with. A daemon from His Dark Materials, Buckbeak the hippogriff from Harry Potter, even one of the centaurs from Ella Enchanted-really, any one would do. When I was a kid, I longed for a magical creature. But there are more than just unicorns in my book-there are also wraiths, chimeras, wyverns and more that populate the magical world of Arden. And it makes sense, as there is a big, beautiful unicorn on my cover, and of course, in the title of my debut: THE UNICORN QUEST. I’ve been talking a lot about unicorns the last couple of weeks. But when Sophie vanishes, it will take all of Claire’s courage to climb back up the ladder, find her sister, and uncover the unicorns’ greatest secret.ĥ Fantastical Beasts and Where to Find Them (in Books) The beloved unicorns have gone, and terrible wraiths roam freely. The four guilds of magic no longer trust each other. But things are back to normal as they move into Windermere Manor… until the sisters climb a strange ladder in a fireplace and enter the magical land of Arden. ![]() ![]() But first let’s take a look at the book The Unicorn Quest!Ĭlaire Martinson still worries about her older sister Sophie, who battled a mysterious illness last year.

This included a Congressional statement on building a permanent Moon base CIA concern over Soviet plans to build a Moon base Soviet concerns over the US plans to use the Moon as a military base of operations and whistleblowers discussing photographic evidence of moon bases. Walla discussed it in relation to a host of Moon-related information that has been leaked over the years. Julian Assange’s arrest on April 11, 2018, sparked renewed interest in him and Wikileaks document dumps over the years.Īrjun Walla published an article in Collective Evolutionthat discussed Assange’s arrest and examined the controversial Wikileaks’ Moon base document. Wikileaks included the document in its dump of State Department diplomatic cables that it began releasing online in November 2010 and ended on September 1, 2011. The fact that officials were discussing such a topic raises the question, did the USSR destroy a secret US moon base sometime before January 1979? The document was marked unclassified, which suggests that the content of the correspondence did not contain classified information, and involved open source material widely available at the time. The document has tags “Operations–General | UR – Soviet Union (USSR)” which reveals that “UR” stands for the USSR. Devine, a Republican member of the US Congress.

So we can quickly get battery capacity(max capacity) based on battery energy density. They are on the shelf and therefore has short lead time and small MOQ. PS: quick notes: if space allows, cylindrical battery cells will always be your first consideration on the table. In cylindrical form there is capacity listed for each size: The lithium battery usually comes with a pouch or cylindrical form. Take 103450 battery cell for example (T=10mm, W=34mm, L=50mm) for a general calculation, we will set it to 0.1 K= mah/mm³, which is a parameter that ranges from 0.07-0.12. The actual capacity will be very complex, but luckily we have a simple and fast calculate formula. The material and Production technology will have an effect on the lipo cell capacity. If size are given or can be checked by a ruler, we can then get the battery capacity.The size of Lithium polymer battery has a great impact on its capacity, that’s the thickness, width, and length of a battery. We here have 2 ways for you to get the battery capaicty. Things would be quite complicated as the battery would be in different shape(Curved shape, Round,Rectangular etc ) and different discharging current(5C, 30C, or even up to 100C) or even temperature requirement(like low temperature battery).

Quick Notes: 1A=1000mA (mA is current, mAh is Capacity) Thenĭischarging Time=Battery Capacity * Battery Volt*0.9 / Device Wattįor a 1800mAH 3.7v 18650 battery to power a 3.7V 10W digital device, how to calculate the running time?įor 3.7V 10W device,working current would be 10÷3.7 = 2.7027A = 2702.7 mA With 90% Power efficiency for Li-ion/LiPo batteries. What if you know Watts only, you will notice that every device use watt to determine it’s main specifications.ĭischarging Time=Battery Capacity*Battery Volt/Device Watt. We, therefore, will need to times 0.8-0.9 for the calculation: Please take note that most batteries, especially those with circuits, will not work down to 0 Volts as a power supply (if it goes to zero, it will have shorter battery life, or even become dead battery if not charged in time), that’s to say,your circuit will stop working at a set voltage before the battery is fully drained. So no more confusion on how to calculate battery life.įor a 18650 2500mAh(2.5Ah) battery with a device that draws 500mA(0.5A) you have: In other words, you can have “any time” as long as when you multiply it by the current, you get 10Ah (the battery capacity). ![]() Or if delivering 10A, it would last for only 1 hour, or if delivering 5A, it would last only for 2 hours. Throw away how long will a battery last calculator, and l et’s see an actual case, 10 Ah battery delivering 1A, would last 10 hours. ![]() So how to calculate how long a battery will last?
