Q:I will go to American in next month and I need to get some pieces of equipment e.gcamera,digital vedio,so I need someone canlet me know how much walt use in u.s.a .Because we use 210 walt in Hong Kong.I need to bring the adaptor or not.Chelsia Leung

110 for most plug in equipment, 220 for appliances like a refridgerator or stove.

Q:I have been warned that some electrical equipment could possibly be damaged by chinese electrical systems.what voltage system does china use. is the supply unreliable and prone to spikes or surges etc.

China uses 220V. If you don't trust the system, then get a surge protector + a converter and use them together with your equipment. I don't know what country you're from, so I can't suggest a converter because different countries use different voltages. When I was in China, I never experienced any problems with the electrical system and I had my cellphone, video camera, digital camera, hair straightener, etc. plugged in frequently. If you're in the big city, I doubt anything bad would happen.

Q:I just got a cpu cooling system (fan/heat sinc) the fan stopped working, ive blown it out and it still will not work. I dont feel the need to replace a brand new fan. Any ideas as to what went wrong with it?

Could have been a short on the system or it was just poorly made. If you don't replace it you will fry your processor. Todays heatsinks can not adaquitly cool todays processors. I'd suggest replacing it. Try a different namebrand from the one you got and see if you can return it due to the sudden death/short life of it.

Q:i.e. extended warranty.

I know this isn't much of an answer but I think it depends on the item. For example, I bought a $32 toy and toys-r-us tried to sell me a warranty that was $12. Doesn't really make sense. But the warranty on my flat screen TV is probably a good value. -- On a side note, it is wonderful that items are so cheap now that we have to consider the value of the warranty but I am worried about out throw-away society. I had a neighbor that just bought a new lawn mower because it leaked oil. That would cost $12 to fix. Oy!

Q:As your career develops, what opportunities open up for the senior engineer with experience in Electrical or Electronics Engineering?

Engineers have all doors open to them in both the technical and managerial aspect. With Electrical or Electronics Engineering, you can become a manager of any IT firm or any electricity company. All electrodomestic equipment require as well some sort of electric department which should be ran under an electrical engineer. Construction companies also use electrical engineers to map circuits in houses. Engineers are also suited for business administration and are even preferred over people who studied business management because of their technical knowledge and analytical thinking.

Q:I'm enlisted and my MOS is 15Y (Armament/Electrical/Avionics Repairer). I'm going to BCT on 20100203 and AIT right after at Ft. Eustis. I'm excited about learning about armament and avionics. I feel proud and privileged to have a chance to work on the numero uno attack helicopter in the world. I want to know how hard it is to get this MOS(no disrespect to other MOS') I have 3 questions in regards to this1) How does 15Y training look like and can I get a head start for the subjects taught right away.2) I would like to go overseas as a first preference, a warzone where I'm needed the most, but also what is the best non combat station to serve in for this MOS overseas and in United States respectively.3) I'm a college graduate(non-citizen pending citizenship in 6 months) and I would like to go to OCS by the end of 2010. Please let me know the best route to do it.Thank you.

Q:HiCan someone tell me what the difference is betweena) turning my TV (or whatever) off on the setb) turning it off at the switch on the wallc) unplugging itWhat I'm reading seems to suggest that only unplugging it really means its off - is that true?

When you turn off modern Tvs from the remote, it will go to standby mode, there's still electricity on the circuit enough for the memory to remember your settings, like volume, time, the channel you've last watch before turning it off. When you turn off the switch from the wall or unplugging it, the Tv is now completely disconnected from the power source. You may loose personal settings, and when you plug it back on then it may function in the default settings. Leaving it plugged has advantages but surge, lighting, sudden voltage changes may damage it. So when you'll be out for days then unplug it from the AC outlet to play safe.

You single then? My wife loves football, well I say 'loves football' but she is a Rangers fan so it's a contradiction in terms. We watch all competitions together though. Get yourself a new wife for The World Cup.
