RO Ro Ro yer boat....
Maybe you might tell us what an RO unit is?

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate water molecules from other substances. RO applies pressure to overcome osmotic pressure that favors even distributions. RO can remove dissolved or suspended chemical species as well as biological substances (principally bacteria), and is used in industrial processes and the production of potable water. RO retains the solute on the pressurized side of the membrane and the purified solvent passes to the other side. The relative sizes of the various molecules determines what passes through. "Selective" membranes reject large molecules, while accepting smaller molecules (such as solvent molecules, e.g., water).[1]

See it’s simple

The bit in the yellow circle is an RO plant, 65000m3/d. They all work the same way, just the pumps get bigger

Not today but this week, decided to treat myself to a new "cart" for moving about.

Also got a new milwaukee m18 metal circular saw and an m12 leaf blower.

Not used the saw yet but I'm looking forward to trying g it out, and the leaf blower is surprisingly good for such a small unit.

A new scale so I can weigh stuff.

It came with a charger to charge the built in battery and a remote (which I will probably never use).

Allegedly waterproof and it is rated for 3 tonnes. I am unlikely to ever go over 1.5 tonne but I thought it was best to overspec, sometimes a Chinese kg and and a Chinese kW is slightly different than here

I had the opportunity to use it straight away lifting a little bench power press which is also new to me.

Tomorrow/this weekend I want try to figure out how it works and hopefully get it running, even if it is just out of interest.

Useful information for the ones wandering about using other batteries on Bosch.
It doesn't work, as they need ID code from the battery to work
