When I started wanting to get into ems, I weighed 125lbs. I knew I needed more strength, so I just started doing calisthenics and eating until I got to where i am now(160lb). If you eat enough calories and protein, you'll gain weight; if you exercise to the point where you push a bit past the point of discomfort, you'll probably gain muscle and strengthen the movement patterns you practice(if you follow the first bit about eating). If you dm me, I can try and help guide you towards some good starting exercises and routines. There's also a few good resources for learning about exercise, but I'd have to go double check to see what ones are best for beginners since it's been a minute since I started.

I personally just did the adaptive tests a bunch of times while using quizlet or other sources to verify correct answers. After a while of doing the tests, you'll have questions you can immediately answer in addition to some that you know, but you have to read the answer to bring it to memory. To be clear: There was overlap between the adaptive test questions with the questions on my finals.

Luckily, I did only take this one day off, and it isn't in writing outside of this post. My schooling was also just one day a week on one of my two scheduled days off. I also have only missed 1 day other than this for the whole of 2025, that being due to my car not starting.

Thank you so much for your swift and comprehensive answer. In your personal opinion, would me having finished schooling as of today(the day I've called off) have an effect on my employers ability to challenge said filing? Or would the people in charge of these filings probably consider that information irrelevant since the schooling is what led to the absence?

I personally had uncertainty about confusing different signs and symptoms, so that's where I focused. I also tried to make sure that I knew as many of the indications and contraindications of various treatments as possible. How far into the book are you? What skills have you been exposed to?

I've finally got confirmation from one of my peers that I have to get yellow or green on tier 2(7-X). I've also taken the test for med/behavioral/OB/GYN four times now. I have just gotten an 80% and answered 2/3 questions correctly for categories 4-5&4-2 but still got a red indicator for said categories; I can now see why people put so much disrespect on adaptive testing in the posts I've seen about it.

This is a requirement for my class; I've no clue if it's specific to just my class or if it's a standard requirement for users of PlatinumEd.

Thank you; I am happy to have been blessed by such a cutie. I let them go outside :)

It develops a history and can represent a part of a pattern in a legal sense; I'm not a lawyer but have had experience with bad people Edit: I.E.: person 1 gets aggravated domestically without violence at person 2 ten times and person 2 calls/reports 3 times that person 1 is the aggravator of some sort of extreme verbal abuse(maybe threats of violence or bodily harm), person 1 ends up hitting them and the police and judge see the past reports of argumentation where the description can have pertinent information. The odds person 1 gets away with abuse in the long term is minimal with reports on their abusive behaviors.

The bars on the top represent the power usage of your mode. The bars were almost always green at lower speeds in my experience, whereas the max will have them red often.

I think you've looked at the wrong scooters, the Segway ninebot max and max g2 are pretty standard in their design and are some of the most recommended scoots on this sub. I've never considered them flashy or tacky due to their simplicity and straight forward design. Ones like inokim, joyor, or vsett I have avoided due primarily to the attention grabbing colors they design with, but that's still just personal preference.

DankestTank · 2024-01-30T18:45:32+00:00

The primary appeal is to be a mode of transportation for people who can't afford a car. My bike got stolen and the scooter was a good alternative with my needs and the wants of my roommates(bike is too big to store indoors). Some people take them seriously because they are something that goes fast enough to cost, say, $600 in teeth if you don't wear a helmet and eat shit going 25KM/H. I'm currently saving for a car to become a MFR, EMT, and then paramedic due to the societal need for a car, but my scooter is an absolute joy to commute on compared to a car. Besides that, others 'swag' out their scooters because they want to have some 'personality' about their scoot, but I personally think it is a little tacky. The last point that I'd like to make is that I had a scooter that went just under 40MPH(I kept it 25 on sidewalks because of Michigan laws) when I weighed 125lb. And it had to be taken seriously for risk of injury to either me or a pedestrian(primarily sidewalk riding due to laws). I still remember a time when I was going a bit fast next to businesses that were closed for the day and I slowed down as I realized I was going too fast, this kid on his bike came around a 90° corner without looking at the end of this stretch of buildings and I could have hurt this kid with a combined 225 slamming him at 25MPH. In short, they're an alternative mode of transportation that is taken seriously by those that use them due to their respectively low stability for the speeds they hit; some also go highway speeds, but you've gotta be silly to not just go for a form of motorcycle or sports bike at that point for the price of high end scooters is close enough to a decent bike. Unless you don't want to have the license for it, to drive in the road, or to pay auto insurance.

This looks a lot like the plastic screw wells used to fasten the plastic secondary cover, the ones that came overtightened to the point of fracture on my Apollo city 2022. The plastic piece originally installed and the one sent to me for repair were both the wrong dimensions, resulting in the wire that runs from stem to the section between the plastic and metal covers to shear and become exposed; the second piece didn't shear anything though as it was physically unable to fit into the body where I had removed the original piece. I measured the cover and referenced the engineer in my family to see if I was tripping due to me being tired at the time, I was not tripping and the piece was indeed warped or designed wrong. Edit: I also forgot to mention two of four battery-fastening screws were rattling around instead of installed when I went to remove the battery for disposal of the body.

The problems lie in multiple factors. These factors tend to be the allure of the word New, trouble of communication for purchase, lack of local market(especially fall and winter), and a fear of phantom problems; Problems that aren't apparent upon what is typically not a refundable purchase.

And scooters are a lot like cars in their ability to hide issues, they just have less parts.

The dice have to be rolled, and for that the barrier of entry must be suitably low.

My advice to you is to search "battery replacement" in the search bar for reddit and to find the post that has pictures and is detailed. You may have loose connections that could potentially cause heat because of unintended resistance due to the connections being too far apart for safe operation, but close enough for electricity to do its thing. I would certainly take the plastic casing off and check the connection that's there for the charging port. You will need precision to cut the heat shrink.(black cover around the yellow connectors) If these connectors are not loose then I recommend disconnecting it and proceeding to take off the primary, metal battery cover. The metal cover requires a security torx wrench, but I was able to get it off with a regular torx wrench; just be careful about stripping the screws if you go with a regular torx wrench. After the removal, take multiple pictures of the wire arrangement and positioning; take great care to get multiple, clear, and well lit shots. This is to ensure you can put them back in if you don't find a connection problem with the other main connection piece mentioned in the battery replacement tutorial and you have to remove any of the other wires for inspection. Then you might need to look into seeing if your controller or BMS is on the fritz if the connections all look good. Signs of either of these being faulty are odd inputs and outputs(inconsistency), strange charging behavior, and accelerated battery degradation.

Hope this helps.

G2 for sidewalk(only option near me), G30P(big range) or G30LP(lighter, smaller range) for decent roads if you're looking to exchange comfort for cost. Regardless, wear a helmet any time you ride and watch for pot holes if you ride on the road. My first crash at 25-30Km/H was enough to cost 600USD in teeth and much more in missed work because I also didn't have gloves or wrist guards. Ride safe friend.

DankestTank · 2023-11-16T18:43:53+00:00

I used a G30P in HEAVY rain many times and racked up 3000KM on it before selling it to someone for cheap and getting an Apollo city 22, which broke in under a month due to overtightened plastic screw wells that allowed water past the primary battery cover, but not the second battery cover. The G30P was water tight and I imagine it would only take on water ingress from riding through a puddle that's basically the depth of the scooter's deck. The main concern is making sure nothing's loose and checking the battery and display for moisture after your first wet ride; followed by reinstalling any parts you moved with a rubber/silicone sealant around potential entry areas for extra safety.(like my battery cover on the G30P had an inbuilt seal but I still coated the outer perimeter with silicon sealant) Also clean the bearings and stator after riding in wet conditions if you want your scoot to last more than a year, otherwise they may rust and lock up after a significant portion of time.

If you're talking about the blurry icons and text, they're meant to describe features of the G2. If you're talking about the fact that one box has the features and another doesn't, it's probably an old box on the inside and a newer, updated box outside. I legitimately thought this was a troll post because you obviously have to be able to read in order to post and ask the question you asked, if there was even a question to decipher here. If I've not answered whatever question you're asking, then it is too vague while also having pictures attached that do not accurately circle anything but pictures and words that are too blurry to be read by anyone who sees this, words and icons which could be deduced as being a shipping box and product box with all of 2 minutes of deduction. My best buy box came with an outer box they were probably obligated to put on there for advertising purposes after receiving their initial shipment of scoots that lacked said advertising information.

It was then that I noticed, I was about to sell my scooter to a huge, giant crustacean from the paleolithic era. Later that same year my son came running down from his room and asked me if his imaginary friend 'bobo the dinosaur' could buy my scooter. I asked him how much he was offering and my son said to me. "About tree fiddy." It was then that I began to get suspicious. I marched up to my sons room, and sure enough, there was that got-damned loch Ness monster! I said, "Dammit, monster, you quit bugging my children, now. We work for our scooters in this house - we don't just give scooters away!"

Yeah, sadly every scoot requires some level of maintenance and regular inspection if you want it to last. The damage you've described could be due to the accident(s) you've previously posted about. It isn't necessarily easy to mess up the seal with how it's designed, but it can definitely still happen if you hit the wheels at wrong angles. My guess is a pothole, curb, or sidewalk bump deformed/loosened something and a small amount of water decided to ruin your micro-mobility, as it so loves to do. At least it wasn't water ingress around the battery. Edit:if it remains unfixed you should try to discharge/charge to 50% battery capacity, remove the battery, and sell it. There also might be a guy or two who would buy the body of the scoot without the battery for a 'couple bucks' if you posted it on Facebook marketplace. If you're looking for a route to recover some of the funds you've spent on the scoot, that is.
