^^ Temperature expressed as a vector quantity. Interesting…

if you got access- as I do not.

maybe try artificial-intelligence generated art of various types test equipment and see what you get
any art fails should be interesting.   :popcorn:   give it its own forum thread?

That warning label looks fake to me: different perspective to the tub. Struggling to think why they'd stick a fake label on there, though!
Nah, there's dozens and dozens of pictures of these things out there. Hardly any of them look photoshopped.

You're right that there are many of these, and that the label does indeed appear on them just like it shows, but I am convinced that the label we see is actually a fake.

I think it's a fake for the reasons I gave earlier, but why would they do that when the label appears just like that on the real product? I think the reason is because these are all badged, and if you check Google images there are many different brands. I think the advertising images don't have a label because they are generic images, and then they fake the label appropriate to the brand they are advertising.

So we are both right: the label is both real and fake, a kind of Schroedinger's label :)

Let's do physics... a eureka moment. Actually the tub is big enough for two, provided they are very bendy :o

I wonder if those fake instructions suggest the bathers change the water between couples? Unlike (Marriott) hotel jacuzzis.

I still prefer the garage application of these. You can use it as a miniature paint spray booth too.

Anyway, it's been a few year's since I studied the laws of thermodynamics, but I'm sure this highly technical diagram illustrates just how these hot tubs are the next best thing to storing radioactive waste in the bidet.

It's quite concerning; 360° is somewhat too hot for a comfortable bath, in Celcius, Fahrenheit, or even Kelvin!

Do they have built-in heaters?

Oh, yes... the luxury ones have heaters and bubblers.  Sign me up!  :)

This is why marketing guys need to bounce their visionary ad campaigns off of real engineers. On my bench, 360 degrees C is the 'wetting temperature' of some lead free solder, that was only available online during the pandemic. It's possibly higher, but I'm not destroying a perfectly good thermocouple probe to find out.

Clearly China's design engineers have far too much time on their hands. Especially when it comes to impressing the wife. Just imagine the production meeting? Standing room only. Nice touch with that hospitality shelf to hold a plastic wine glass. Shows it's a luxury brand item. But, I hate to think how long the forum's discussion will be when it comes to the issue of the bubble pump's earth leakage versus actual leakage? Perhaps it's not earthed and electrolysis is part of the spa-n-beauty treatment? I don't know, I'm a fat bloke who displace most all of the water in an olympic sized swimming pool. I suggest she's remote controlling the washing machine, which pumps the waste water from her little pool of pleasure, into the flat downstairs.

Now that's a man who knows how to multitask! I'm eager to see how he gets that graphic card into the laptop.
I suspect the LED breadboard is part of his secret to doing this.

At first glance, it looks like only the soldering iron is photoshopped into the image, but looking more closely I think the solder reel was photoshopped onto the soldering iron. Wouldn't the solder reel weigh it down after a while?

He really needs to get that facial injury looked at. If it still needs a plaster after all this time, then it's not healing properly!

Seems like a lot of editing work for something that clearly doesn't look right.

Not worth the effort, but Alkalines can be recharged, too.  ;D

Not all of them, not many times, not at full capacity, and with the risk of electrolyte leakage, but they will recharge a little.  I've did this many times when run out of new alkalines.  Works better if the load is some very low power LCD device, but worked pretty well with room thermometers (LCD) or with this 9V LED backlighted T1 tester, where I've recharged its F22 battery a couple of times in the last 5-10 years:  https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/recharge-non-rechargeable-alkaline-batteries-with-a-broken-leds-light-bulb/msg4677871/#msg4677871

No, they're trying to market fuel cell cars, without realising they need to build the distribution infrastructure first. H_2 ? Oh, For you?
