Table of Contents This All-Terrain Electric Scooter Punches Above Its Budget-Friendly Price The Turboant R9 is the most powerful electric scooter in the company's current lineup. That would mean more if Turboant didn't specialize in inexpensive models best suited for casually zipping around town and last-mile commutes. On the other hand, at $550, the R9 overdelivers on features and performance with its 500-watt rear brushless motor, 10-inch knobby tubed tires and a design aimed at riders who wa

AC or DC: Which Is Better?

wired.com Rhett Allain 2025-12-23 05:30:00

As the story goes, the rock band AC/DC took its name from a label on an old sewing machine in the Young brothers’ home. It must have meant that the machine could run on either alternating-current or direct-current electricity. Today, all the newfangled electronic devices in our homes run only on DC power—even lighting fixtures, now that LEDs have replaced incandescent bulbs. But wait. The electricity that comes out of your wall socket is alternating current. That means each device needs to conv

In 2021, an amendment to raise the federal minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour and phase out the subminimum wage for tipped workers was attached to President Joe Biden’s pandemic-relief package. But the Senate parliamentarian removed the proposal from the bill, on procedural grounds.
