Old/Broken Projection TV
Are you disposing of an old/broken projection TV? I would like to have if and get the Fresnel lens from it.
It needs to be a projection TV, not an LED flat screen. See the website below that shows taking the Fresnel lens from projection TVs to make a huge sun light focusing collector.
Thanks, Kieran Scott.
PS, I will leave this add up for a long time... but I do not necessarily check the site very often. So if you have an old Projector TV, please call or text me on 0278 093 663.
Kind regards
Scotty
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
