Cuba: Castro Regime Propaganda Offers Tips to Survive on 3 Hours of Electricity a Day
Breitbart | November 4, 2022 | Christian K. CaruzoThe communist Castro regime in Cuba aired a new set of propaganda pieces through its media apparatus this week claiming Cuban citizens are “content” with daily power blackouts and offering tips to make the most out of the three hours of electricity that they receive per day.

Be sure to spread it out thinly, lasts longer.
Remember that they mostly come out at night, mostly…
Invest heavily in tiki torch futures…
Prioritize your usage choices, with a premium for Tik-Toc viewing…
Run the ice-maker full blast…

Make sure your Tesla gets priority.
Only read these advice pamphlets during daylight hours.
Quickly down-twinkle everyone’s comments without reading them. Speeds things up.
If only we could directly harness the power of my down twinkle archive.
I want recognition though. Instead of an energy star logo, maybe a “this MRI brought to you by the power of Fangbeer’s misguided choices”

Early to bed, early to rise. Keep farmers hours.
I was going to make a farmer joke about only having time for three hours of electricity.
I’ll yield my joke to yours.
👏
Power (Watts) is joules per second. The power company measures your current (coulombs per second) and your voltage (joules per coulomb) to calculate how much power you use. (multiply current times voltage) (at the meter anyway)
So what you need to do is get yourself a crap ton of capacitors. In a capacitor the current leads the voltage by 90 degrees. This shifts the power factor and makes it look like you are using very little power for the first 5 time constants. (when the current is high, the voltage is very low) Run your home supply through a bridge rectifier into your crap ton of capacitors. The energy you store will be half your capacitance in farads times the square of your voltage (looks like they use 220v out of a center tapped transformer in Cuba just like we do here in the U.S.)
1 farad of capacitance would get you 48,400 joules. 1 KWh = 3.6 x10^6 joules. So you’re looking at 75 Farads per KWh. These little MMC arrays at Mouser might be a good bet.

You’ll need 12 of them per KWh. Most people use about 50KWh per day, so 600 of them +- 10% should do ya.
Let’s see they’re only $2,833.78 each. Mouser usually will cut ya a bulk deal. Might want to give the sales rep a call.
Oh, and don’t put your cat’s litter box near them. 216,000,000 joules is kinda a big deal.
You definitely want to protect your cat’s family joules…
Shhh. He doesn’t know that those cats are already out of the bag…as it were…
Bartender…I’ll have whatever Fangbeer has been drinking…what!..I have to smoke it??
Actually, if you live near enough to the HV transmission lines this might be the way to go:

2×10^9 joules in just one of those…
Maybe wait until the power’s off to hook that up though…

Sleep 21 hours a day. Works for me.
