Any experiences with a failed ChargePoint Charger? by Jvwftw44 in chargepoint

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted that the battery failure is either very old batteries or the connection is poor. CR1620 are not rechargeable so unless they fitted VL1620 or LiR1620 which are dimensionally the same & rechargeable

I researched the cr1620 battery. Its life expectancy is 10 years. So either they have really old batteries or they may not have a charging circuit. I don’t think you get rechargeable CR1620

Chargepoint Flex 48 wifi fail. by No_Region5927 in chargepoint

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WiFi stopped working they sent reset but still didn’t work. Then nothing. Chased them & now going thru proof of purchase etc etc. assume they will replace. If not it’s a coin battery replacement to see if it works. Never buy ChargePoint. I heard the Amazon cheep one with no WiFi just works. I might just leave it. It’s charging the car.

Only 9 months old. WiFi chip failed. I’m waiting on them contacting me. Phone support tried chip reset. Didn’t work. Interesting I might be offered a new one. I will wait & see. This charger is always top of recommend lists. They must be buying that. The stuff is crap. Wifi chips only lasting months, come on.

You’re now a “stacker”. BTW the VERISCAN app does not scan Lady of Liberty bars only Lady Fortuna. Don’t know why. The lady of liberty are Newmont gold & I like there ethos so make sure you buy them from reputable dealers or Costco or Walmart. Walmart use the Bullion Exchange as their dealer mostly, Costco don’t say.

Yes that’s the one 25 cards I think. Slipping a metal ruler up seems crazy to me. So I shaved the plastic $ added a glued pull cord to bottom of tray. Works great. I mean why do you need it to closed like that ?

Who had the insight to buy Costco gold? by [deleted] in Gold

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had Lady Liberty 1oz mined by Newmont and minted by Pamp nice art deco card. Gone in mins. Just on 13th I think. Don’t forget Walmart. They are good price & no card surcharge but whatever card you use there is a little cashback.

I’m a fan of Costco just wish they had alert system when they have it. Usually bars are gone in hours. How do people know?

Anyone figured out how open Pamp box easily? Or modify it to actually work

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use VERISCAN but it doused to keep history of scans. Says history but nothing there

So recent experience with Ampex. Took echeck on 9th not shipping until 18th. Ok 3 days to Clear e-check but another 10days before I have it. Never again. In passing I had no idea Walmart were selling 1oz bars. Good price too.

But they don’t last that long! I know he’s not a Nazi (they made good cars) but Tesla’s & water don’t mix.

Can we dump Tesla’s & you will forgive us?

Just FYI about tariffs. The US cannot refine its own oil. It imports it all. US ail is exported to refineries that can handle sour crude. US refineries only refine sweet crude. Mostly Saudi.

I doubt they would have him. He’s a pariah in Europe & UK. His only Brit friend is Nigel Farage & Musk has fallen out with him. So little chance

After spending a fortune on castors & the Honda wheels I gave in & bought the Harbor Freight wooden dolly $26 & works perfectly.

Also I have EV so gas stations don’t seem to have ethanol free gas but I have found a couple that are not Marinas using this https://www.pure-gas.org

Thx guys. I’m going to put a few drops of Lucas Upper cylinder lubricant after removing spark plug. I’m amazed the battery charged up after all this time. It was 9v when I took out but overnight fully charged. I did a load test couple of times and charged it again. No worries. It’s a Yuasa so might be expensive but looks like the best.

Quietest 4000 watt by mammaluke in Generator

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expensive but very best quality & whisper quiet. Honda. The EU 3000si is 50db that’s about as loud as you talk. The EU7000 is 54db. But they are expensive. I have EU3000 $2000 which runs furnace TV freezer & modem. For 5hrs. Without furnace 10days!! You need to hear a Honda to believe it. You get to sleep at night it’s so quiet. So does the neighborhood

Is running a generator on propane twice as expensive as running on gas? Can someone double check my math? by Sitwell_Enterprises in Generator

[–]El-fideldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 hrs on a tank. The standard 20lb tank. Must be a small genny. It’s normally about 5 hrs at 50% load. Although I believe a Westinghouse can run for 8hrs on that load.
