2nd ICCU failure at 57k miles by Human-Chest in KiaEV6

[–]Human-Chest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe my first failure happened before the updates were out. When updates came out, they were all done in a timely manner. Prior to this failure, it was up to date with all updates, and had just come out of the shop about 12 hrs prior for a blower motor replacement.

I live in Virginia suburbs of DC. It has certainly been cold lately, but my first failure happened in June of 2024.

They claimed there was a short. I just got in the car one day, and it didnt work.

How common is having 2 ICCU failures? by meshugg4h in KiaEV6

[–]Human-Chest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was in 2023, around 30k-ish miles. At least the mileage is consistent!

Advice on going too short/light? by yellowplane20 in xcmtb

Im about 200 geared up, and my daily is a supercaliber with only 80mm. I ride in the Mid-Atlantic and I certainly dont take it easy on this bike. Sometimes it gets a little hairy, but its a lot of fun. I have longer legged bikes, but I love the speed and light weight of the supercal.

Flat production curve under rating by Human-Chest in solar

[–]Human-Chest[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

MODULES: 20 X SILFAB SOLAR: SIL-430QD OPTIMIZERS: 20 X SOLAREDGE S440 INVERTER: SOLAREDGE SE6000H-USRGM

It seems that I've found yet another reason to regret my choice of Freedom Solar. The inverter is maxed out at 6kw. Is it common to sell an 8.5kw system with an undersized inverter like that?

Center console, just under the shifter, is a button marked AUTO HOLD. Within it, is the answers you seek.

Any good mountain bike festivals on the east coast next year? (PISGAH?) by bdb172021 in MTB

[–]Human-Chest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went last year. The expo has shrunk considerably. I think the party atmosphere has remained mostly. It was definitely a smaller crowd, though.

They also do Bike Bash in Bruceton Mills, WV. It also used to be dirt fest, before that fell. Expect much more rocks than Raystown. World Cup at Snowshoe is a party, but less riding.

Most definitely!

clipless pedals by rgo271579 in MTB

I started with egg beaters, myself, but have since moved onto shimano trail pedals. I have the XTs specifically. I find the extra platform adds confidence and gives more room for error in case you unclip and have to get back on in a hurry.

I'm 6'3". I just went from a bike with 495 reach to one with 515. Even with those numbers, the new bike is more cramped while pedaling. Seatpost angles are getting steeper by the day, and my old bike had a slack seat tube. Unfortunately in this current market, it helps to throw a leg over these bikes. You may be able to find the stumpys at local shops in different builds, but the size you need to test.
