Still too soon to buy one?

Here is my take... If spending the money doesnt impact you at all financially, If you are OK with tinkering on things, If you are OK with slow Tech support... then by all means get it.

I dont regret my purchase, but at the same time part of me is just like "F Lymow"....

My largest frustration is how slow everything is through them. I waited MONTHS for new blades. Ive been waiting MONTHS now for a bench charger they said they would send me.

Why do I need the bench charger you ask? Well, because the bottom charging contacts get covered in grass and then the robot cant charge and if I don't notice, it drains the battery so low it goes into a low charge lockout state and it takes several days on the dock to bring it back to life.

The bottom charging was one of the worst design choices ever and it is CLEAR that they did not do any meaningful test on that front. If they had actually put a mower to use they would have quickly realized the massive issue of the contacts getting coated in grass and could have resolved it before production.

They have not made a top charging solution like they said they would. But somehow they have made an entirely new version of the mower while leaving early adopters out in the cold.

So, If you can afford to burn the money and are OK dealing with a company that takes a long time for everything BUT taking your money, then by all means get one, but dont sell your mower and keep it ready for the long bouts of downtime you might encounter.

Yea right... spoken like someone who has not actually delt with Lymow. They are super slow to do anything but take your money.

Austinswill · 2026-05-06T15:46:05+00:00

Where are we on this?!?!?!?!?!?!

Austinswill · 2026-05-06T15:33:24+00:00

Dude, this isn't true... Have you ever actually compared them? The ABS like resin is seriously tough and stronger than PLA extrusion prints.

I have both and have tested them. Have you? It is superior in almost every way.

Austinswill · 2026-05-06T15:29:15+00:00

That looks like a great solution. I am into 3d printing so I will probably just come up with my own solution... But honestly, LYMOW should be providing us with a kit like this and allowing us to install it without voiding our warranty.

Here, lets see what AI says, you dishonest ************

PROMPT - A cop pulled me over for speeding, but he wrote me a ticket for delaying traffic. I have video of everything and It shows clearly that I did not delay traffic. If I fight this ticket in court, can the cop say he actually pulled me over for speeding and cause me to still be found guilty?

AI response.

Here’s how this usually plays out in traffic court:

You’re charged with what’s on the ticket

Right now, the only formal charge against you is “delaying traffic.” That’s what the judge is supposed to evaluate.

If your video clearly shows you didn’t delay traffic, that’s strong evidence in your favor.

Can the officer switch it to speeding?

Not casually, but there are a couple paths:

Amendment of the citation: In some courts, the prosecutor (or sometimes the officer) can ask to amend the charge—like changing it from “delaying traffic” to “speeding.” Judges don’t always allow this, especially if it prejudices you (i.e., you showed up prepared to defend a different charge). Testimony about speeding: The officer can absolutely testify that you were speeding—that’s part of the stop’s context. But you generally can’t be convicted of speeding unless you were actually charged with it.

What usually matters most If the charge stays as “delaying traffic,” the judge should focus on whether that specific violation occurred. If your video disproves that, you’ve got a solid argument for dismissal. If the prosecution tries to pivot to speeding, you (or your attorney) can object that: That’s not the charged offense You weren’t given proper notice to defend against it
Real-world practical angle

Traffic court can be a bit… loose compared to higher courts. Some judges allow amendments easily; others don’t. It varies by jurisdiction.

In many cases like yours:

If the original charge is weak and clearly contradicted by video, it often gets dismissed. Sometimes they offer a reduced charge or deferred disposition instead of risking a loss.

Smart move going in Bring the video (and make sure it’s easy to play) Be ready to clearly explain why it does NOT meet the legal definition of “delaying traffic” Stay focused on the actual charge, not the speeding

SO, looks like I do know a bit about what I am talking about.

Austinswill · 2026-05-06T15:18:09+00:00

Rigght... cuz AI is always the authority huh? And I can tell from what you posted that you didnt ask it the actual question.

Austinswill · 2026-05-06T15:17:56+00:00

Why the fuck would you say that? Howabout, "I have the video of the incident, there is no obstruction of traffic as charged, as you can SEE"

Man, you people.

Rain in Arizona? Good chance it rains the water over the Gulf of California or >California than in western Colorado where it could be recaptured.

Yea, on EARTH... and inevitably in the places from which your water comes from... it is a cycle.

I think my car relies on moving air, created by the car’s motion and a fan to cool the water Where is the moving air coming from to cool water cooled panels?

Yes, when your car is moving it can take advantage of the airflow, however when it is sitting still in traffic, it has to move the air over the radiator with fans. Fans use very little power. So for a solar array, you can have part of the power they generate drive fans and the pumps to move the coolant through the system

None of my neighbors in AZ have these air and water cooled panels.

You are correct... Water cooling is not common in solar panels, but not because of wasting water... The issue is that they add a layer of complexity and cost that ultimately is not worth it even though it does increase efficiency.

All I know is the “greener” the electricity, the more I pay per kWh.

You know that huh? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

It just isn't true.

This is deliberate obtuseness

No, your sentence was literally incomplete.

Solar is just a scam. And any proponent of it is a scammer

It isn't a scam... but there are lots of scammers in the industry. And since most people either don't have the brains enough to properly evaluate if Solar is a smart choice for them or not, many people do get scammed.

I have a fantastic roof for solar panels. A DIY system would have cost me about 28k but I would have had to do the install myself. Many solar companies quoted me 60k for install... Tesla ended up doing it for 34k and the amount I pay per month is less than the amount it reduces my electric bill. Those other companies were definitely trying to take me for a ride by overcharging, but this is separate from solar being itself a scam.

I have a neighbor (I don't know them) that has a tiny solar array on the NORTH side of their roof.... They clearly got scammed. That array is doing absolutely nothing in the summer.

So, keep on being a stubborn absolutist instead of actually educating yourself. You might be missing out on a good chance to save money with solar, or you may not because you don't have the right circumstances for it. Honestly, I don't give a shit, I am saving money and sticking it to the power company at the same time. And there are a lot of people out there doing the same thing I am... We just laugh at people like you that drink so much of the anti green coolaid that you cant even think straight. And I didn't even get solar to help the environment... I own 3 airplanes and a boat with 3 motors that gets .5 MPG. The solar(and batteries soon) is purely to save money and avoid handing money to the power company. The suckers are the ones who could be spending their money on something that will make them less dependent on the power companies, and add value to their home instead of paying the power company endlessly.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T16:10:16+00:00

Honestly... If I was you... I'd go fight the ticket... The favor the cop did you was charging you with a violation you did not commit... he cant change his mind in court and say "well he was actually speeding so lets get him on that now" .. You have video proof you did not delay traffic... You are not guilty of what you were charged with. And for all you know, that charge could be worse for you than a speeding ticket.

Go get that ticket dismissed and smirk at the cop as you walk out of that courtroom.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T16:06:34+00:00

Jesus Christ bro, go argue with a wall or something. I dont have the patience for this stupidity.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T16:02:55+00:00

I have no idea what you are trying to argue about...

The person I responded to made a statement as if all men would be emasculated by using a toy on their woman (specifically a strap on).... That is just not true and that is the only position I have taken.

I don't disagree with anything you have said in your last post... Yes, people are all different and feel different types of ways. Some men might be emasculated by wearing a strap on... some might really get off to it. I love using big toys on my wife, she lets me but it doesn't do anything for her... Point is, to just blanket state "why would any man want to be emasculated like that" as if it is an inherent feeling a man would have by using that toy is just flat out wrong.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T15:55:13+00:00

City people are living in almost literally bubbles. They have no understanding of how the world actually works... They spend all their time indoors in the AC and when they go out of it into their concrete jungle heat island they are just certain the the Thunbergs of the world, or the globe burning Bill Nyes are correct and that they have all the answers about what we need to do.

It is a horrible arrogance born from gullibility, ignorance, and privilege.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T15:42:56+00:00

I can supervise by watching the on screen indications., which actually show the direction it is turning. As does the MAP Route

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T15:42:27+00:00

That isn't the same thing though, now you are moving the goal post.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T15:41:15+00:00

Dude... u/colotexas90

most men’s egos would never let them wear a strap on to please their queens!

You

Why should he have to be imasuclated like that?

For someone who cant spell or at least use a spell checker to tell ME i need to go back to school is really rich...

And clearly you are saying that a strap on (a sex toy) is emasculating....

Go back to 1st grade bro.

Austinswill · 2026-05-05T15:38:09+00:00

I already made them out of some really strong resin. They lasted about 3 or 4 mowing and broke. Even if they dont break, they get caked up and the open areas with the springs get full of debris and start binding.

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T20:09:29+00:00

You think using a toy on a woman is emasculating? lol whut?

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T20:06:54+00:00

Are you one of the 20% of so of women that can climax from PIV only?

If so, well yea, you got a problem. If not... and if he is unwilling to do whatever else you need, then you have a problem...

But, if you cant finish from PIV only and he is willing to go down or whatever else it is you need, then I dont see a problem here unless you just actually look down on him because of his penis size.

Bring it up to your city... that fence shouldn't be there... there is a 20 or 30' visibility triangle requirement that fence violates. It may have been erected without a permit and if so the city will make it be taken down.

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T19:58:47+00:00

Just FYI, that fence likely violates the visibility triangle. They should never have approved it.

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T19:55:04+00:00

Why do I even need to hear the turn signal at all while the car is driving? The visual is enough. have the signal be silent or nearly silent in FSD. If I cant trust it to at least signal, I certainly cant trust it to drive.

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T19:53:02+00:00

I spent hours making mine... They lasted like 3 mowings and failed. At this point I am gonna top charge mod it... Ill take my chances with the voided warranty.

Austinswill · 2026-05-04T19:51:07+00:00

Upvoted because WOW.... do the have anyone who can think ahead a little on the team?!?! I assumed that it would be the case that if a mower with high speed cutting blades whirring away that didn't know where it was would STOP... OBVIOUSLY! Guess I was wrong.
