Confused about these EU power adapters.

Confused about these EU power adapters.

They look similar but to us they look like 3 different pairs.

  • The top pair of adapters have the thickest prongs, but they are the same distance apart as the middle pair.
  • The middle pair of adapters have prongs the same distance appart vs the top pair, but the prongs are thinner (smaller diameter).
  • The bottom pair have the thinnest prongs (smallest diameter) and they are closer together than the top and middle adapters.

We can't make any sense of these adapters and really don't want to bring all of them with us.

EDIT: We will be riding the EuroVelo 15 from Andermatt, Switzerland to thh Netherlands, and charging our phones and laptops that have North American plugs.

Installed Nvidia driver but 2nd monitor won't light up :(

PC is an Intel NUC11 Enthusiast (Iris XE + RTX2060). If I boot from the Fedora 44 Gnome Live USB both my monitors work fine right out of the box. However, after I install F44 and reboot, only one monitor lights up. I followed a guide I found (https://github.com/Comprehensive-Wall28/Nvidia-Fedora-Guide) and installed the driver, then rebooted, but one monitor still won't light up.

I nuked F44 and did a fresh install. This time I installed from the software store, but exactly the same thing happens :(

Any ideas?

Parts to connect outdoor tankless water heater to propane tank?

Two separate off-grid structures, each with its own Mizudo outdoor propane tankless water heater: 1 x 120,000 BTU and 1 x 180,000 BTU. I have the water heaters mounted and plumbed.

The smaller heater will be fed by a single 20lb tank but I'd like to use two x 30lb tanks on the bigger unit.

I have 3/4" flexible (yellow) fuel supply pipes & fittings to connect to the heaters, but I need help with the regulators that will be required (especially for the dual-tank setup).

120,000 BTU Heater: 4.58" WC - 11" WC.
180,000 BTU Heater: 8" WC - 13.5" WC

TIA for any pointers/advice offered :)

Where to put pressure gauge on tankless heater?

The tankless isolation valve kit I ordered includes a water pressure gauge. Where does this go, exactly? It fits just fine on the "isolation outlets" of the hot or cold isolation valves but I thought I'd ask to be sure!

Is it possible to buy only the copper ring clamp for PEX to Poly-B Adapters?

I have used some of these PEX to Poly-B adapters (brass adapter + 1 PEX ring clamp + 1 copper poly-b ring clamp) in a temporary setup. Now that the rest of the equipment has arrived, I need to move things around and make adjustments. Is it possible to buy just the copper ring clamps for the poly-b side of the adapter? I'd hate to buy a bunch of new adapters only for the copper ring clamps.

It has been down for me all day on F44. The app opens, but I get nothing but a white screen with spinning circle in the middle.
