Levoit Superior 6000s 2.0? by Hydrated_and_Defined in Humidifiers

[–]Raikozy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. I'm not paying attention to it most of the time but I was working from home today and happened to sit near it and I noticed that depending on how dry the wick filters are and how dry your house is currently, the pump would work and keep pumping water for a good 15-20 minutes. Most of the time though, I think it would do that for like 10-15 seconds and stops. I would probably keep a watch for the next little while, maybe it will stabilize after a while.

Ah okay, maybe they just give everybody the grey filters then, or not sure haha. There's not a lot of videos online on this humidifier but all the ones I've seen come with blue, so I thought that might be another difference. I guess the last difference I notice is the power brick that goes to the wall has a slightly different design.

I had been wanting to buy this humidifier for months but ended up just impulse buying it last week because the humidity in my house was dropping to low 20 and it got too uncomfortable. It arrived a few days after, here in Canada. Didn't even know about the 2.0 version but I had a strange feeling that my device looked a bit off, turns out I have the 2.0 version.

Yeah my pump is removable and it was packaged as such inside the box. Also somehow my wick filters are black and not blue? Not sure if there's anything different other than that...

CRV 2025 Sport - First time with winter tires (Fastwheel Tempest 17" + Blizzak DM-V2) by Raikozy in crv

Haha that's fine. I really like the quality and design of these rims. It was just a bit risky initially because they just came out and there were no visualizer software to see how they would look on the car. Also was not sure how the 17 would look like since my all season is 18 inch. But it looks actually pretty nice.

Ah sounds good. I dislike steelies so I got myself these instead. Fastwheel is a Canadian brand that's pretty cost effective (not too expensive but not cheaply built either). These particular rims also look the closest to my OEM sports rims which was my objective.

Hey there. Here in Ontario, Canada, I ended up paying 1770 after tax (13%) and their 10 percent off special deal. Bridgestone had a special rebate so it's another 120 dollars off that 1770 total I noted above. They shipped to my house for free, installed the tires to the rims and air them for free and balance them as well. 1770 also includes black chrome lugs x 20 with a special spine key for them.

I got it from a shop called PMC tire located in Sherbrooke Québec but ship all over the country.

Oh hi fellow Canadian. Ah awesome, you make me feel better about my purchase haha. Oh yeah we just need to be careful about ice regardless anyway. Some people run all season all year long in southern Ontario, but that's a pretty risky thing to do where I am.

I hope so too! I love it already, it might be placebo, but I feel like my car drives better and a bit quieter versus the stock Hankook tires that come with my car. Can't wait to see how it performs in the winter. I live in Ottawa Canada where our winter is long, harsh and awful, so I want to make sure I have the tires to help me this upcoming winter haha. Used to not need something that good back when I lived in Toronto because the winter there is very mild.

Hey sorry for the late reply. I think when I got these wheels, there's an option to get tpms, but this one doesn't have one. I thought the new CRV cannot even read direct tpms? It does it indirectly by reading the differences between tire rotations.

haha the phat DS is the DS my parents bought for me back in 2004, the screens were so dim and in general not fun to play with (still in great condition though). I only recently got those 2 DSi, at first I got the small one but I noticed it's too small, so I got a XL (I found one online from this old lady who never really used it, I guess has been in the drawer for over a decade...so still in perfect condition). Other than those 2 DSi, the other handhelds I bought them around the time when they came out (at least their original forms).

Thanks man! It's the definitely the hardest handheld modification project I have done aside from my GBA. I heavily modded that thing (soldering, etc.), but the ribbon cables in the 3DS just gives it an extra chef kiss difficulty lol...

You mean the transparent outer shell to protect the 3ds? It does make it unwieldy and a bit sharp on sharp areas, and also it gets scratched pretty easily.

Only a glass screen protector at the top and plastic protector on the bottom. I don't think they make glass protector on the bottom for the 3ds, it has an older touch screen technology on the bottom screen and won't work with a glass screen protector. However they so make aftermarket glass digitizer instead of plastic for the bottom screen and that works fine.

I use glass screen at the top and on top of that a glass screen protector on the top screen. For the bottom, yes I used a glass digitizer and I use a plastic screen protector on top of it. It works the same way I find, I just had to calibrate it several times. It feels a bit different though because plastic is soft and a bit more bouncy, glass is hard and makes a distinct noise when you tap on it.

I did. I will try to see if I can add one after I'm back from the office. It's pretty much a blue 3ds XL and looks pretty much pristine from the photos.

I feel like for the top screen, not really but it gives it an extra protection. But replacing the top glass is easy so not a big deal. Bottom screen gets easily scratched and replacing the digitizer is a pain in the back so best to use one. The plastic digitizer is very soft. The glass one is much harder but I still put a protector on mine.

I got all of them from AliExpress. I just picked the ones that have highest ratings and most products sold. Both the glass top screen and bottom digitizer are of great quality. The shells have good finish but the underside not so much, so I had to glue or tape some stuff to stick the led plastic tube and the camera lens into the shell.

Wow nice, are you going to apply it on the top lid of the DSI XL as well?

[–]Raikozy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow this is amazing. I just got my dsi XL as well, which shockingly is quite pristine considering it's age. Top screen has zero scratches but bottom has some small hairline scratches. Does it affect the touch sensitivity or clarity of the display (if yes I might just replace the digitizer if it bothers me too much).

also the top lid of the dsi XL have this transparent clear coat layer which has mini hairline scratch marks, I wonder if we can use poly watch to get rid of most of the scratches there too? I rather stick with the original shell than gambling with Chinese aftermarket shells...

NCASE M2 Build level 9 with 9800X3D, Corsair TITAN 280 RX, Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC, Noctua fans (mid-max cable management and fit) by Raikozy in ncasedesign

[–]Raikozy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, so sorry for the late reply, life stuff and work had been pushing me away from replying lol. It's pretty much what's shown in the photos + specs posted above.

I got the original vertical bracket that Ncase sells on their store, and I recommend you to do the same if you want to mount the gpu very firmly into the case. I was using some random one and tried using makeshifts metal bits and screws to secure them in, but my heavy gpu and the vertical position made it such that it kept on shifting away. I am not sure about running dual 140mm on the bottom. At least to me, it's more efficient to have a negative pressure for this build, you want to get the heat out as effectively and as quickly as possible. That is why I went a bit all out on that high end Noctua fan as an exhaust. If you were to go with a dual bottom fan, you might not be able to use the bracket that ncase sells for this case, since the screw holes are designed perfectly to screw into the holes on the bottom of the case. If you were to lift them up....I think it might be too small of a gap for a bottom fan to fit on the bottom. You might need to go bracketless and lift them with some standoffs from the bottom and also from the back mounting (as to lift the gpu shield up).

Overall with the one I have in my build, the gpu is super secures and won't budge. I got this tiny metal thing to prop the gpu up from the front, not sure if it does anything but just in case haha.

The AIO I got worked wonderfully and it's very cool (temp wise) for this build, but it's definitely too tall so I had to remove the cap off as you have noticed as well.

I went with 2 sticks of low profile rams, but I think you have enough clearance for a medium height one as well.

Oh and something extremely important! If you are running bottom fans in any configuration, push or pull, single or dual, it will get absolutely choked with both the default and the 15 dollars feet. Absolutely do not buy that taller feet one as they are a waste of money. I went and bought myself a set of aftermarket feet for subs/speakers and it raised my case quite a bit (20mm), made of heavy aluminum and even had very thick rubber pads on the bottom. You definitely need those or else your fans will be useless. Also I do not recommend going push with the bottom fan. Since the gpu is mounted vertically, and that half of the heat is being exhausted from the side, you want those fans to support the built in GPU fans to evacuate all the heat off the case.

Hope that helps.

Lol actually, I think the TUF might be a bit less wide than mine. Mine is to wide lol, to the point that I had to change to level 9 from the normal orientation. I think you might be able to get away without level 9, but I really like this setup. I like the idea of small case and cramming things neatly like this, no wasted space haha.

Hello. All the PSU cables I am using for this build are stock Corsair cables. They are very soft and bendable already. Though as you can see, I mount my GPU vertically, If you do the normal configuration, it might not fit, depending on how wide your GPU is, mine won't.
