Most gas stations will sell small gas cans for exactly this reason

Generally higher octane works fine in most cars but high performance engines not configured to handle either type may knock with lower octane fuel (due to premature ignition with the higher compression ratio), and will generally put out (slightly) less power regardless due to timing adjustments the engine will make to accommodate the change.

Putting premium in a regular car that isn’t designed with higher compression ratios in mind is really just a waste of money.

Smart switches/cameras tap into the power directly and actuate the chime circuit via a separate control (or use batteries). The ring pro does this and there’s a little power box that gets wired in at the chime unit for that purpose.

I’m not sure how it actually does the controls, however. A short term capacitor to run the door end temporarily and cutting the circuit to release a relay, maybe?

I use mine for rice but it also gets used as a slow cooker and steamer (also, soft boiled eggs are super easy) when necessary

Lithium for now, there’s no guarantee that will continue, but in the short-medium term at least, yes.

Also if you’re playing on a difficulty where multiple enemies that really should be railcannoned spawn in short order a laser can often take out multiple of them which can help a lot

The concept of “simultaneous” breaks down over relativistic distances too so that’s equally fucked
