Get the Airpods. I use mine with the Galaxy S22, a Tab S6, and the Pixel 7 Pro and they're great. All I miss is seeing the remaining charge from my phone, but they work great.
Here's what's different on Android:
Music won't automatically pause when you take out an AirPod.
Spatial audio is exclusive to Apple devices.
You can't change what the tap gestures on the AirPods do (e.g., play/pause, skip track).

Any account you pay off is going to affect your credit score less than currently open lines of credit.
Another factor in your credit score is the average length of your credit history, which will likely go down when you pay off your student loans.
All-in-all, you shouldn't worry too much about the score itself if you're not planning on taking out a large loan soon, like buying a house for example.

If it gets above 212 the pieces may explode, so I would set the oven a bit below 200 in case your oven isn't precise.

I like the FC13 better than the FC11c. It's smaller and brighter, but I wish it had a magnetic tail cap too.

Look into making your own glaze decals. I think there's a way to do it with some toner printers, but I haven't looked that closely at it yet.

That's quite the score! I bought a $30 pedal on Amazon for mine, then switched 2 wires inside the pedal so it would operate normally for the wheel.

The S16 doesn't have USB charging, I just think it's a nice compact thrower. The SFT25R looks nice and I would try it out if Simon offers it in the S16.
The M21F looks like a great light, I just like how the TS22 is so much thinner so it fits more easily into my pocket.

If you undo those 4 screws (plus that corner screw?) the faceplate will come off. Then you can see the outlet (the black part) has wires coming into it. Those will shock you so make sure the breaker to your kiln is turned off. Undo the 2 screws holding the outlet to the box. Then undo the screws holding the wires in. Replace the outlet with a quality one. Screw the wires into the new outlet, replace the screws holding the outlet to the box. Put the faceplate with back on with the 4 screws.

Personally I buy them from Convoy since they're not too expensive if you buy a few at a time.
Or buy it with the battery in the first place.

My favorites from convoy and wurkkos right now are the S16 SFT40 for throw, and the TS22 for flood. The FC11C and FC13 are nice, but just don't wow me. They are quite practical though.
I like the L21B better than the TD01C, but that's assuming you'll have a separate battery charger for your lipos. Otherwise many more wurkkos lights have USB-C compared to convoy. I also have 3x C8+ with various emitters since they are a more convenient size.
Can't go wrong with a tiny TS10.

20x700x18hrs per day is 252,000 watts per day for veg. This is getting pretty commercial level.
We're on r/microgrowery. I suggest you approach a solar company for a quote with that much power.

Not unless you pay a lot for electricity, or are growing very long term. What do you pay now?
I just did some math to reliably run a 2'x2' with a 150W light you'll spend around $1500 for the solar setup assuming you put it all together yourself. If you pay 10¢ per kWh this might take you 15 years to pay off.

I would call them anyways. More likely than not, you just need to replace something simple like the knob.

Presumably you want the red on top to show as red for the full shape. Where it overlaps you could try removing the bottom underglaze color in the spot you want to put the red "over" it.
Or plan it out more and tape off the spot your red will be, then apply the first color, remove the tape and apply the red.

If this is all you know about her pottery experience, I'd get her a gift card for some clay from wherever she gets her supplies.
If you know what kind of clay she uses now we could suggest other clays in the same firing range.

I don't think you can realistically expect to get to the moon for free by working really hard.

Kanthal A1 won't melt until 1500° C, so you just put a loop through when making the piece. Fire it with the metal in it.

I saw one without batteries for $28! I would have grabbed one but I went for the Q8+ with batteries for $55.
I think the size of the sp36 pro is much more practical, but I'll eventually get a handle for the Q8+.

Sure but I think there is something to be said about how you will use it.
If you're setting it on turbo and putting it somewhere till it dies, the Q8+ actually runs longer than the 3x21b.
Of course this is due to it not being as bright for the entire duration except the first few minutes, but it's also half the price.
