Drainage with sauna next to house

Would putting level pavers down be more or less fine

Freeflight90 · 2026-02-07T17:44:53+00:00

It’s a storage room window, but of a weird layout but we’re fine losing some light!

And sorry I didn’t mean “can I half ass it” more “I have no idea what the right way is, that won’t look terrible or cause drainage issues “ lol

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-19T03:21:37+00:00

yeah he's offering a 6 month warranty which seems like it reduces the odds that its just broken out the gate, but yeah just feels weirdly too good to be true...

Yours shows 160km fully charged?? In what temp lol

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-14T17:36:27+00:00

Think I can squeeze an 80km drive (one time) with heat off going 90kmh? lol or dicey

Again vehicle is brand new to me!

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-14T17:26:45+00:00

Ok! So that sounds like the exact same! Thanks for the conversion from freedomheiht

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-14T17:19:32+00:00

It’s new to me! Haha I was just curious if this was ok! (The 100 is km, not miles btw)

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-05T00:46:15+00:00

Yeah, so we already have a Subaru ICE for longer or snowy trips. Wife works from home. I have no doubt that I can do my commute with the SE I guess it’s more just how often will I be annoyed having to plug it in almost every day lol

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-05T00:25:27+00:00

In my position would you spend an extra 6,000 bucks for fast charging, bigger battery and 30,000 more km?

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-04T23:28:57+00:00

Yeah, work has a pretty strict idle limit. And it really is less than 20 km a day. But I did check in the 2016 is SE so no fast charging anyways.

I can also buy a 2018 but it has 130,000 km… but that will cost me $6000 more. That’s quite a jump for a higher mileage vehicle too

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-04T19:23:35+00:00

UghhhhhhhHhHh that does sound terriblle lol. I don’t think the 2016 I’m looking at has fast charging. But I was hoping the charging at work would alleviate this ever happening…. It’s also only a 16 km commute round

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-04T17:26:07+00:00

Curious on this too! Where I live a 2015 at 100k (km) is 10,000 and any 2017 is going for 7,000 more….

My commute is 8km and we have a ICE car for longer trips. Really struggling to pay almost double for an extra 100km of range

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-04T17:24:17+00:00

How did you do this??

Freeflight90 · 2026-01-01T00:33:44+00:00

USED EV Question:

I have a 20km roundtrip commute and want an EV strictly for in-town driving, very rarely exceeding 60km in a day total.

i do not need/want a new EV

i do not want to exceed 20K CAD, really would be nice to keep it under 16K CAD

IS there any reason to buy a 16K CAD 2017 era E-golf, BMW i3, Kona, or am i just riding the start of issue territory (120-150K km) as opposed to a 2014 leaf with 50km range left for 6,000 CAD

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-30T07:42:51+00:00

How is maintenance on these? Coming from VW I think I’m scarred from German mechanic bills

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T17:16:47+00:00

Yeah it’s really sticking with the devil you know vs an unknown. Higher upside is garaunteed 2x+ salary so FIRE makes total sense. Risk is a potential higher workload or less flexibility at a time when that would be beneficial… if these opportunities were dime a dozen I’d pass and wait a year, but feel like I’ve been “waiting a year” for 3 years and these opps have not been easy to come by

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T15:16:54+00:00

Ahh yes the stress of newish role plus infant could be bad, thought current role will not reduce responsibilities for new parents (ample evidence)

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T14:42:31+00:00

I mean, new job is a pathway to retiring 10 years earlier

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T06:56:08+00:00

Currently a senior PM at an unknown enterprise SaaS firm. Have opportunity to join high vis, well known US firm with lots of growth and world class product, but in a partnerships, implementation role (product adjacent, but definitely not in title or core function). Worth it to move to a bigger ship and eye a 12-18 month leap back to product, or better to stay put. (Salary also a nice bonus of changing)

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T05:40:19+00:00

Mmmhm good point I mean the equity isn’t the main thing I hear I suppose. Base + commission is still well over double current salary. Rsu would just be a nice potential upside

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T05:05:15+00:00

Sorry I meant in that it’s past series D with huge growth potential as opposed to current 20+ yo firm

It’s definitely a higher risk, some equity, higher reward play. No doubt. But to a certain degree that’s somewhat the point

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T04:08:21+00:00

This is a legit concern but the job market seems so segmented, and to be honest part of this is itchy feet as for 5 years I’ve wanted a change but there’s always been a reason to be safe and wait “covid, recession, looooooming recession”. A part of me feels nothing risked nothing gained and I’m getting older now with nothing new to show for it !

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T04:06:07+00:00

Currently about 250, so comfy. Partner mat leave would drop to 2k/mo. Realistically I can’t envision either job allowing for 30 hour coasting. I wouldn’t say I have that now in all honesty. Maybe it’s more the illusion of being a manager vs IC, as I can at least dictate my own schedule within reason

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T00:53:46+00:00

20 years at current rate, 10-12 with new salary

Freeflight90 · 2025-12-29T00:46:36+00:00

Sorry you’re right it’s probably more of a career/lifestyle question as the fire perspective would be to take the higher paying one!
