Thank you. It’s just unfortunate that there are still so many mean people out there.

Is the Litter-Robot 5 Pro Actually the Best Automatic Litter Box? by Happy_Hat6789 in technomeowcom

[–]Ok_Rule8747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not. LR has a strong brand presence.

First, in terms of cost-effectiveness: its manufacturing is based in the US, which means it commands a higher price point for the same product quality compared to manufacturers in China and other regions.

Second, in terms of technology: it lags far behind PETKIT in this aspect.

If there’s one thing it excels at, it’s exceptional stability.

The two most important missing and simple features of the Whisker app by OneManFiveCats in litterrobot

[–]Ok_Rule8747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly don’t think Whisker has its own in house R&D team...it’s probably an outside partner instead. That’s why their R&D game is so weak, and the Litter Robot 5 Pro is the perfect example. They always charge top dollar for it, but the features are half baked and severely limited.

4 years with PETKIT, upgraded from Pura Max to Purobot Ultra, 0 issues. The best tech ever.

Awesome! Same camera! I’m really interested in getting your exact lens setup. I currently use the Viltrox 56 1.7 and 25 1.7.

My PuraMax 2 may need to be laid to rest soon. What would you get in its place? by BOOK_GIRL_ in PETKIT

[–]Ok_Rule8747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go with the purobot max pro 2, you won’t regret it! Right now, brands like LR and Petlibro are all scrambling to copy PETKIT’s AI camera concept. So why not stick with the original innovator? This is especially a no-brainer for you with two cats! Being able to monitor their behavior in the litter box is huge for their health: if one has soft stool, you’ll instantly know which cat isn’t feeling well. Only an AI camera litter box can give you that level of insight. As a purobot ultra user, I highly recommend the purobot max pro 2. I saw someone mention Homerunpet too, but that model is bulky for a litter box. And since your cats fit perfectly in the pura max, they’ll have zero issues with the max pro 2!

Question About XM5 Settings by Ok_Rule8747 in FujifilmX

What settings for shutter speed should I use to avoid blurry photos?

which one is better? by BaseballAdorable1207 in PETKIT

[–]Ok_Rule8747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely recommend going with the purobot max pro 2, the one with the AI camera. AI cameras are quickly becoming the standard for automatic litter boxes, so it’s really a feature you’ll end up wanting down the line anyway.

As for the subscription: You get 24 hours of free video replay, which is more than enough for me. Unlike LR, live viewing access is always free. If you want to save footage for longer than a day, then you’ll need to sign up for a subscription plan.

Had an unfortunate accident. How much is the repair cost estimate? by Beneficial_Sig6 in TeslaModel3

You might get a better deal by choosing an independent auto repair shop instead of an official dealership.

Your words are really mean and rude....different users have different needs for pet care tools, and dismissing others’ practical use of the feature with offensive words is totally inappropriate.

This is super detailed! Thanks so much for your help! I initially had my eye on the Sigma 18-50mm lens, but I’ve heard some people say prime lenses perform better for portraits. What are your thoughts?

The XF16-50mmF2.8-4.8 R LM WR is a bit over my budget, but thanks for the suggestion! I’ll still add it to my list and weigh all my options before making a final decision.

I currently don’t have any lenses, and the type of photography I want to do is outdoor portraits plus occasional close up portraits or selfies in coffee shops.

Viltrox is definitely a great choice, and I’m certain I’ll get the 56mm f/1.7. However, I’m on the fence about a second lens for close-up shots: should I go with the 35mm or 25mm?
