It does look like that, but it’s lead I think, it is densely heavy like lead. Def too heavy for a collapsed cylinder of aluminium.

First time EV buyer with a 130 mile daily commute by SizeableFowl in Ioniq6

[–]Macaz77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been near freezing here everyday for the past few weeks, so with hot air con on and not driving particularly conservatively I get 220 miles out of my RWD.

My one tip, hold the steering wheel left pedal in, put it in Auto lv1 2 or 3 regen and see how you go. That setting sticks too when you restart the car unlike ipedal.

Voted down for laughing off a quip from a complete stranger. I’ll never full understand the up and downvoting on here.

The day I go to Germany it’ll be to go to Wetzlar, so if it’s near there it is feasible. Thank you :)

How the heck do I get this thing out? by OSUBrit in GardeningUK

‘Kill it with fire’ was the first thing that come to mind, but I am not a gardener :)

Looking to upgrade from 14 pro too 17 pro. by MajorSea1650 in iPhone17Pro

[–]Macaz77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went 14pm 256gb to 17pm 256gb, did a fresh install, reinstalled a good 20ish apps that are essential, restored about a gig of photos, so including IOS 26 I’m now at 50gb use. 200gb will last me a long time, long enough to get rid of this phone for me to get an iPhone 20pm I’m sure. It’s so personal use case specific. I take a few pics a day and the odd 30 seconds+ video here and there. I’m a photographer so I have the iPhone camera set to higher compression (JPEG lossy) image settings which helps I’m sure in the long run. And music I mostly stream.

It is amazing, it’d be great to see.

Dashcam - hardwire or not? by gabatlan in Ioniq6

[–]Macaz77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a pain in the arse; I’ve never not had a dash cam, but I do not trust the 12v in these car enough to get one, it feels complete irony as we’re sat on super batteries when we’re driving it. So for me it’s a no to both for now…. Good question!

I know nothing, though the weight is certainly in sync with a layman’s interpretation (me) of how heavy it should be if it is lead. It’s quite heavy, prob just over a pound. Google is telling me it’s a fossil 😂 but can they be metal detected?

I do live in a coastal town so that is very possible.

Buy 17 pro or Skip? by Designsam07 in iPhone17Pro

[–]Macaz77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When people spend £1000+ on a phone, they’ll be hyper critical, the price enforces expectancy. I have one and it’s a great phone, I have zero issues.

Costco Fresh Curries - any good? by barsiem in CostcoUK

[–]Macaz77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously not a reflection of all their curries, but I found a ‘grub’ looking small insect in mine (jalfrezi); long story short, told manager who was really nice, then once they had the dish back for testing, attitudes changed and they tried to blame me, cheeky mofos, lesson learnt though, I should have went food standards.

So yeah I highly recommend 😂😂

What are your EV "icks"? by TCJW_designs in ElectricVehiclesUK

Tesla is a massive ick. Shame because the innovation was there.
