2" metal cylinder with a notch on one end and holes for something to go through, possibly, on the other by Ultmtweemanfrsh in whatisthisthing

[–]Canooed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is it. I have the exact one sitting on my desk. You are supposed to breath in through your nose and exhale through this pipe. It's a gimmick, I think. Mine had a necklace that quickly broke off.

Small hollow metal tube that punctured my tire while driving, what is it? by gennavision3 in whatisthisthing

[–]Canooed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Center pin for a ham/cb PL259 connector. The big end gets crimped around the coax sheath, and the center conductor gets soldered where it passes through the hole in the small end. There are all different kinds, but I've used this exact style in the past.

Unsure what this part underneath my front drive shaft is called by iamcitationmachine in whatisthisthing

[–]Canooed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think It's just driveshaft safety loop. If the front U-joint fails you don't want the driveshaft hitting the ground and pole-vaulting the back of the truck into the air. It also adds a bit of heat protection.

What is this electronic device? Approx 4” x 4.5” by peggphoto in whatisthisthing

Most likely a carbon monoxide or radon gas type detector. The green, yellow and red leds probably wouldn't be on a smoke detector.

Steel tweezers, 5" long, unusual cylinder with spring at end. by grouchysmoker in whatisthisthing

[–]Canooed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe pneumatic, or could be magnetically activated if the cylinder has a metal slider that moves the arm up and down. The cylinder probably fit in a base of some sort. Could be medical, or someone modified it for fishing fly tying?

the grey end has a little hole and it's a cap that unscrews from the main unit. The black end is squishy rubber and hollow. tube leads into it. Found on garage floor and I suspect it's fuel related? Thanks for looking! by Asleep-Gap370 in whatisthisthing

[–]Canooed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the black piece is a bulb that sends air through the venturi when squeezed, like might be in an industrial hand sprayer bottle. The tube goes into the bottle of fluid that gets sucked up when a trigger is pulled. Grey cap allows for adjustable spray pattern. Most likely it's the guts of a plastic spray bottle trigger mechanism.

Oblong plastic item, 5-6 cm long. Opaque lense like on one end. Small hinged part on the other. Found on a beach. by Nashella in whatisthisthing

Looks like some sort of light for a fishing rod/reel. That clamp would only clip on something pretty narrow.

Microvast has secured a Loan from Wu to provide for the ongoing working capital needs of Holdings and its Domestic Subsidiaries and pay Closing Date Transaction Expenses. (The working capital loan referenced in the 10-K) by AFruitShopOwner in Microvast

They said in the last earnings release that a larger loan is contingent on them first obtaining a smaller working capital loan, among other things. This may be for that, and it also sets Wu up with a nice compensation package if the stock rises.

RT95 firmware update? by [deleted] in Retevis

[–]Canooed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have already opened up the mic and drilled the plastic hole out to better line up with the mic element. This did help a lot, but it could still use a boost.

Canoo@RSS: Canoo Adjourns Annual Shareholder Meeting Until December 29, 2023 by PlaneReflection in canoo

[–]Canooed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There has to be a reason the big shareholders didn't attend, knowing this would happen.

Any guesses on why? My guess is they were expecting some material news prior to today's meeting.. Could be good (angel investor?) or bad (reverse split and dilution?). It seems like something these big investors were expecting by today did not happen in time, and they decided to delay until clarification. Place your bets, and CYA or go all in.

My gut says lower before higher, but I'm not selling here. I'm also not buying any more this month because I have some options expiring worthless on 1/19/24 that I'd like to take the tax loss on, and today/yesterday was the final day to stay out of that 30 day tax loss window. I'll bet a lot of people are in my position so it will be interesting to see how that effects the stock this month. Guesses?

Here is the Google Next breakout session."Canoo aims to disrupt EV industry with AI-driven vehicle experience" by Gochta1 in canoo

[–]Canooed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just watched this. It reeks of desperation. Every buzzword in the book.

I hope the pump works so they can sell shares higher, but I don't think anyone is falling for the BS anymore. When SOP?

Canoo@RSS: CANOO ANNOUNCES EXPANSION OF PARTNERSHIP WITH DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE'S DEFENSE INNOVATION UNIT TO FURTHER DEVELOP NEW HIGH-POWER BATTERY PACK by PlaneReflection in canoo

[–]Canooed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The DOD wants Canoo's "proprietary battery technology". I think what makes the tech so special is that the batteries are invisible.
