@aris @maruno Okay I've finished my long working day and I looked around a little.
I decided to be lazy and let Gemini Deep Research gather some intel on the subject, it seems to align with what I remember from my own research: https://gemini.google.com/share/3be8913c4777
One thing that I can immediately agree with from there is that https://nkon.nl is a very good european-based supplier, with cells in the exact price range I mentioned: https://www.nkon.nl/rechargeable/lifepo4/prismatisch.html
so if you DO want to try it, that's the way.

@BoydStephenSmithJr @almino I have watched the video couple of times now and have seen no ads. And even if I did, I don’t see the point in throwing a fit about it. There are more important things to get upset about than couple of ads in an informative video.

@TechConnectify I am not completely through your video but have an interesting videolink to the recycling problem.
It's completely in German but it shows a process to completely separate all layers of a solar panel to get pure materials for new panels.Einfach genial: Lösen diese Erfinder das Solar-Schrott-Problem? - hier anschauen
Wohin mit dem ganzen Solar-Schrott? In den nächsten Jahren erreichen Millionen Photovoltaik-Module ihr Lebensende und bisher gibt es kaum eine effiziente Lösung, sie vollständig zu recyceln. Der Physiker Harald Gross aus Dresden will das ändern: Mit Blitzlampen will er PV-Module in ihre einzelnen Bestandteile zerlegen. Schnell, sauber und energiesparend. Eigentlich forscht er seit Jahren an sogenannten Gasentladungslampen. Durch Zufall entdeckte er in seinem Keller, dass seine selbstgebaute Blitzlampen-Anlage Materialien von Solarmodulen nicht nur verbinden, sondern auch mit einem einzigen Lichtblitz trennen kann. Gemeinsam mit Michael Heuschkel entwickelte er daraus eine Recyclinganlage, die in nur wenigen Minuten ein ganzes PV-Modul zerlegt, und das bei einem Stromverbrauch von gerade einmal 1 kWh. Doch kann das wirklich funktionieren? YouTuber Leo Tiedt testet die Blitzlampen-Technologie in der Praxis: Lassen sich alle PV-Module so einfach recyceln? Und hält das Verfahren, was es verspricht? Dr. Ian Marius Peters ordnet die Innovation wissenschaftlich ein. Ist die Blitzlampe tatsächlich eine Alternative zu den bisherigen mechanischen, thermischen oder chemischen Verfahren – und könnte sie das weltweit erste marktfähige Solar- Recycling-System werden?

Let's do this.
us, yesterday evening “we've just spent the day looking at conference video, we're tired, but the laptop is already connected to the big(-ish) screen in front of the couch, let's watch something lightweight, like @TechConnectify preaching to the choir¹ about how cool solar panels are”
us, yesterday evening, a bit more than one hour later: “ouch”
but it was the good kind of “ouch”, because those things needed to be said, thanks for doing so
¹ at least in our case

@TechConnectify This may be your best video yet, certainly the best not on dishwashers or christmas lights.

@GoodNewsGreyShoes They didn’t though. They said “TL;DW?”.
That’s not asking for help. That’s an incredibly terse way to say “what you made is too long and I didn’t watch it”.
Interpreting that as a “request” involves adding in as much context on your part as interpreting my comment as a rebuke.
In both cases; the “request” and the “rebuke” are not in the original statements.

>>"Interpreting that as a “request” involves adding in as much context on your part as interpreting my comment as a rebuke."1st half: Genuinely, what purpose does a question mark serve if not to indicate a request?
2nd half: You got me there!
I absolutely agree that, had I given your words the same benefit-of-the-doubt I'd applied to the "TL;DW?", your statement *could* have been intended as a completely earnest suggestion without even a HINT of disdain or rebuke.
Were they?

@TechConnectify @GoodNewsGreyShoes Make sure to watch the entire thing.
@gudenau Absolutely will do!
I won't be able to until after work today, tho.

@GoodNewsGreyShoes They were. The video is well worth taking the time, and almost anyone (myself included) will come out of it more educated.
[edit] I’ll also add; some lessons are better learned not through a summary but through the actual process of learning. A summary and an education are different. Otherwise school would be a week of cliff notes and done. These are topics I feel deserve learning; because the summary isn’t really that new.
There’s value in spending time.

Technology Connections Oh man, right-wing heat pump and dishwasher spaces must be in a wild tizzy this weekend. This is going to be worse than all of the people suddenly asking why Star Trek had to go and get all “woke”.

@mattwilcox I can accept that, & apologize for assuming otherwise.
I genuinely agree with everything you've said, here!
You're absolutely right about the merits of this video & thorough study itself, & I certainly hadn't meant to suggest I believed otherwise. >"A summary & an education are different"
Precisely! A summary (tl:dw) is *not* meant to replace watching the video (it never could!), but to ADD something: your personal take-aways!
TL:DW is an accessibility aid, not a substitute.

@TechConnectify This was amazingly well researched and put together, like most of your videos.
Hopefully this will get some people to understand the importance of moving on from fossil fuels many instances.
I came for the video and stayed for the amazing rallying cry during the latter part.
Keep up the amazing research and thank you for speaking out, though it's unfortunate that you felt like you had to.
