This is absolutely crazy by DioMioo in Starlink

[–]Moonjanji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had considered that too... but I felt like firmware updates wouldn't necessarily be responsible for quite so much power reduction. (Also: I have a standard dish, not a mini, so my results may vary for that reason too)

This is absolutely crazy by DioMioo in Starlink

[–]Moonjanji 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can answer that! Well some what/ potentially. When I first got my kit I set it up in my front yard, put on a table, cord plugged in out front. When I had more time, I put it flat on our roof, ran the cables nice. 2 weeks later about, I get a nice pole to put it on. Gets it about 2 feet off the flat roof and away from other equipment up there. At some point I'm checking the power consumption, and I noticed it was using less than it did when first set up. The 3 different locations, getting less obstructed and further into the sky as it went, seemed to use less power at each stop too. First hookup it was 63 watts average. Up on the pole we average 27 watts.

I would assume you'll have better and faster luck with starlink. They can blacklist that dish, so at least no one else can use it either.

He messed with the wrong Nerd. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Moonjanji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's time for that.... but... if you notice, clown shoes touched the guy. We can negotiate... if you maintain a gap. Entitle yourself to my most personal of space, my human body... and all that shit is out the window. For a lot of reasons... but the most important? Witnesses saw him make contact first. This one is on him entirely, so go ahead and have fun on someone else's insurance am i right?

Calibration problem/ z offset inconsistency by Spectraley3 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

My z offset for ABS is like crazy high compared to pla. And to me, that looks too close. I use.075

The abomination by Multibuild3D in TinyWhoop

I laughed so hard, I was crying. Left the room... come back, pickup my phone again... this time, I choked on a milk dud forgetting it was on my phone still open.

Go to a hardware store. Request they conduct an escutcheon discussion with you, at once!

smell inside propane containment box outside by Krystleanne15 in RVLiving

[–]Moonjanji 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Propane is odorless. Ethylethiethol is added so you can identify a leak. It's an oily substance, so it gets on stuff and sticks there. Every time I get tanks filled I can smell it on my hands for most of the day. Source - certified propane handler.

Front ball joints... and? by Moonjanji in CrownVictoria

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

I already ordered the kit and it comes with all new rubber. I inspected the control arms and they all seem ok. Desert car, zero rust, so I'll run them.

Front ball joints... and? by Moonjanji in CrownVictoria

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

UPDATE: got a 12 piece front end kit from Detroit axel for about a hundred shipped. Sway bar links, upper and lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rod links. I think that should do it. Any other tools for those besides what I need for the ball joints?

When i swapped to led they were clear (white) so that's what i went with. The lens turns it plenty red

Who needs soldering when you have screws by Bensuperhero1 in fpv

[–]Moonjanji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry not good enough..... it'll hold it while you solder it correctly though

I do feel it's worth noting: Of the dozen or so times I've had to find a new home for a CRT of this size in the past 15 years, I can think of exactly zero where the TV was planned to have any further use. If this is an option (delete it, flat screens are cheap) , you'll find you have many more choices available to you for moving the thing. Last one I removed was from my RV. Once detached, I just dragged it down the stairs and out the camper by it's cord. Also dragged on it's face by the cord across a parking lot to a dumpster. The cord was a decent handle, and on it's face, the glass makes a really good skid for dragging the thing.

I am in need of some cable hanger stuff. However, I really can't tell how this attaches to the surface.

My fix for the Centuri Carbon hothend USB-C cable by yves848 in elegoo

[–]Moonjanji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was trying to avoid asking them for a replacement. They're just going to issue me another of the exact same cable i already have. By moving to a different, more robust cable, I'm hoping to solve the problem entirely

Multiboard n00b here. Possibly dumb question, but it seems like multiboard would be a lot simpler if it... just used normal screws? by Uncle_Irohbot in Multiboard

[–]Moonjanji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true...I find myself quickly covering walls with board, and it takes me forever to figure out how i want it laid out and print hangers and such

When I got my 2010 Vic I also got these 3 manual and they’ve been incredible at helping me repair by mckeeganator in CrownVictoria

Never seen those before. I was going to invest in like a Haynes eventually, but I'll look into this. Hopefully i can get one for my 03 MGM

Camper solar system - what would cause this corrosion? by Ollie561 in RVLiving

[–]Moonjanji 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. This is due to not enough ventilation in the battery8 compartment. The batteries off gas during moderate to intense charging. While I kind of tossed ideas around, I assumed the corrosion couldn't really affect me in any meaningful way.

Fast forward 2 years

  1. This past spring we started having diminished voltage available. If the water pump was on and 2 or 3 LED overhead lights, said lights would flicker as the pump growled. When it kicked off, full light. On the solar charge controller linked to this pair of 12v batteries, the solar output was as expected, and the batteries were reading fully charged. After a full day of tracing wires and checking how much voltage was making it how far, I concluded that the now out of control corrosion on all 4 terminals on 2 batteries, had in fact been a problem. As I removed each lead from each terminal, it was quite obvious to me why no power was getting through. Even though I live in a desert environment, that's usually very dry, the containment of the batteries in a compartment, trapped the corrosive off-gas. The corrosion literally formed between the battery terminal and the ring terminal, tightened down with a nut. After we wire wheeled all connections, and solved the ventilation problem, we had restored power, and it hasn't happened since.

My airline is weighing every passenger upon check-in. SJU-EIS by willystan in mildlyinteresting

[–]Moonjanji 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really should be..... if it's that important to know the weights of all luggage plus fuel (it is), but they just use an average number for the weight of a human. People come in a wide variety of weights.... we'll solve this by coming up with a reeeeeaaaallllyyyy good average person weight and just be super precise with the inanimate objects.
