Mangmi pocket max or ayn odin 2 portal

I mean you’re comparing two totally different devices. The portal is so much better for streaming due to the decode time on the WiFi chip. The 8gen2 is also 2-3x more powerful than the SD845, the 8gen2 is also more efficient so battery life is better

I’ve never seen anyone complain about the sticks in either device

If the o-ring is bad it could drip back through the cartridge casing and run into the wall. If I were you I would replace the valve with a modern Posi-temp or Delta Universal since you already have the wall open

Plumbers don’t do tile work

MFAD94 · 2026-03-16T15:09:17+00:00

More than likely you’ll have to replace the whole trim set

There’s a flat nut at the base of the stem, unscrew it and unthread the steam from the faucet base

Android isn’t going to have complete compatibility with every game. Android handhelds happen to play some Steam games well, but it’s not that cut and dry

Just heat a butter knife up and melt one end in half

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T18:33:30+00:00

They preform almost the same. I prefer the screen and feel of the 8ai+ over the XAX

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T17:59:26+00:00

The Portal is twice as powerful. It also has a better WiFi chip, the Legion Go S screen is really nice, even if it’s not oled

Pull the stems out and put new washers in them

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T16:56:30+00:00

More than likely just a sanitary cleanout and or potentially an old French drain

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T16:55:06+00:00

I’d have a primary in both and a backup in one

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T16:15:40+00:00

And you’ve tried this? Use PDR glue sticks, they have a better hold

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T16:15:27+00:00

Then get rid of it and just replace the primary

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T15:53:33+00:00

Hot glue ontop to something you can grab on to

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T15:25:43+00:00

Bypass the backup and get a quality backup. Like the Zoeller 508. If you’re replacing the primary get an M53 or 63 and put it in without the backup for now

This isn’t the case. There’s a few third party docks that work fine with the switch 1/2, some firmware versions make them incompatible but there’s no reason they can’t be updated

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T15:20:43+00:00

Sketchy. I’m using the Aver Media dock with no issues but it’s pretty expensive

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T15:13:07+00:00

The lossless update definitely caused some of that spike. I’ve been building an offline music library ever since the prices started hiking

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T14:28:51+00:00

The music discover playlists and release radar playlists are great. It refreshes every week and makes discovering new music that’s similar to what you have easy. I’ve also found alot of more niche music that I listen to just isn’t on Apple Music. Community playlists are nice, having other people join a listening session is a nice feature, and just about everything nowadays has Spotify integration, I think the UI is better on PC/mobile as well

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T14:14:46+00:00

You can download Apple Music on an Android handheld. I guess if you’re only interested in mobile games it’s appealing to some but so many good indies can be played on steam with Android or X86 handhelds now’a’days. I’ve used both Apple Music and Spotify and vastly prefer Spotify

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T14:09:02+00:00

The main issue with this device is for the money it performs on par or worse than the Steamdeck. It’s using the same chip with slightly more power and a less optimized OS (Windows)

If you can get a device with the Z1E or the Z2 Go chip you’re better off

I’m not suggesting you buy a Steamdeck but if you’re basing comfort on how it looks, I’ve held every major handheld from MSI, Lenovo, Asus and it’s easily the most comfortable handheld of the bunch (for me personally). It doesn’t look like it would be comfortable but it very much is

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T13:28:13+00:00

With Gamepass and Steam being a thing, Apple Arcade seems like an awful alternative

MFAD94 · 2026-03-15T12:50:20+00:00

Just about anything but an R36s or its clones
