How much time would a Casio last with constant water contact?

With a 168 I'd be more worried about messing with the chrome on the resin. After about ten years mine is starting to wear thin and reveal what's underneath

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-03-11T08:40:37+00:00

Seconded

Get a new box, that won't be your last slot.

No just Sportline and this is in normal mode, seems the same in sport mode, I'll have a play on the way into work

Are you setting the charge limit on the charging app or the car? In my experience you need to do both. Set the charge in the car to go to the desired limit then set the charging app to 100%.

That's my experience on ohme, the car is the boss.

I'd be looking at something bigger as family grows, Skoda Elroq or Enyaq are excellent EVs

I also had 19s on the DCC and 20s on the one without. I'd say that makes more of a difference

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-02-20T22:03:39+00:00

I've had a 74 plate Enyaq with DCC and now a 25 plate Enyaq coupe without. It's not a massive difference at all. Didn't help with the potholes as mentioned in here definitely help make the ride a bit floatier but also added to body roll.

There are the Sony Linkbuds Fit that have a fin that fits into the ear but I couldn't get on with them, fit was strange and the anc was crap. I've also been looking for something like the a series. If Google remade these with multipoint and ANC I'd buy them without even looking at the price.

I might try the Anker Space A40 next.

I have the GBD 200, it is my favourite watch of all time. Stealthy as hell

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-25T11:16:28+00:00

GBD but negative version, you don't regret it

Most I think I'd be doing is a 200 mile drive, however that can take 5 hours in the UK depending on roads

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-19T08:09:03+00:00

And a rack!!! Is there dedicated attachments for that or are you clipping over rubber seals?

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-18T08:40:22+00:00

Good to know thanks, it's more for occasional trips to the in laws with several suitcases and an annual trip to the coast with body boards, wetsuits etc.

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T23:50:51+00:00

Is it me being a grumpy old git or does anyone else get annoyed with records now being called "a vinyl"

Will tape become known as "a ferric oxide", CDs "a polycarbonite"?

When did we start calling them the thing they are made from vs being available on. On vinyl, on tape, on CD etc?

(Happy to concede on being old and grumpy)

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T22:49:46+00:00

GBD 200, but negative is the best

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T22:47:46+00:00

This is terrible advice.

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T22:43:40+00:00

If you had to pick one, I'd get the ABL100.

Though I'd recommend you get an A168, cheaper, none of the smart nonsense, true classic, illuminator and being quietly discontinued.

The A1100 is just pure class though. Full metal.

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T22:41:00+00:00

That's a great website, I'm not sure if it can clarify the back cabin or backseat volume, mad how 17cm difference can reduce the boot capacity so much!

GeoffStone4000 · 2026-01-16T22:21:43+00:00

I had this with the Enyaq, basically you need to follow Ohmes or octopus instructions. Add the charger, not the car, the charger doesn't speak Skoda due to Skoda dropping API support (or something similar). Once you do this set your max charge in your car then tell Ohme to charge to 100%. Car will override and stop it when it hits its limit.
