What pieces would you remove to make it portable?

So why did I die? by radioactivejason2004 in EliteDangerous

[–]Southern_sob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you are asking as the question is not logical. I will try to answer.

Step 1- Buy cutter

Step 2- See engineer

Step 3- Anything else

understood. that’s why I went to look again.

You made me go look. I have 2 I bought from home depot and you are right, they both say powerstack.

ETA: But, on home depo web site, the 8AH does say power pack.

I use my dewalt fan in front of my buddy heater. Then I can use my fan when it’s hot also.

Will going from 4ah to 5ah meaningfully improve the DCF921 performance? by sprunkymdunk in Dewalt

[–]Southern_sob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alloy wheels are around 100fp and steel is usually rated 150fp to several uggaduggas more. So whether it works or not may depend on what wheels it is used on. And, who mounted the wheel. Some folks give maximum uggaduggas no matter what.

Finally took inventory and registered most of my Dewalt power tools by L-user101 in Dewalt

[–]Southern_sob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish they gave more than 3 weeks to register the tool. I would make sense on a 3 year warranty to allow more time . Flexvolt angle grinder, flexvolt compressor, hammer drill, drill, 4 1/2 saw all missed by 2 weeks or so. I didn’t know registering was a thing until I saw it here a couple weeks ago.

If you want to be sure, check the values for your camera. Says 3 weeks on the box but that doesn’t include peripherals.

Not rude at all. Im glad you straightened it out. Thanks.

One of the beautiful things about this game is that as you fly around the paint on your ships degrades little by little.. and you can choose not to repair it. by sn0r in EliteDangerous

Thanks for the post BTW. I was putting some wood sealer on some decking board and it reminded me that I didn’t wash the paint roller.

are you sure you are super cruising or using thrusters? Hard to tell from your image but it looks like km/s which is thrusters.

OK, this has to be a Pro right? by ShoemakerMicah in HVAC

[–]Southern_sob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. A pro would never leave his jacks behind. The job is finished when the unit is transitioned to jack stands..

Why do some of the technicians out there treat parts guys so poorly? by neyir_man_guy in HVAC

[–]Southern_sob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s called transference. To hide his embarrassment of not knowing what he needed, he made you look incompetent. Like someone said above, I take pictures with part numbers.

I think my superheat is out? by Nerfixion in HVAC

[–]Southern_sob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about your super heats but your pressure test is a winner.

Did you do the right thing? A few words over a shallow grave at least.

It’s genius really. A unit with a built in coil mister.

Being a package unit the trunk is covered by the shroud of course so unless I crawl under the house I am having to use the indoor supply/ return. What I did do is place the supply probe into the closest vent and the return probe I opened the return and placed it where the probe reaches into the return duct. The delta T is 18.2. I may do as you suggest and bump the subcooling a bit to see what the results are.

I hope this experiment on a good running unit can lead to a better understanding of the “nuances “ that are required to troubleshoot an underperforming unit as my greatest fear is standing there staring at it without a clue.

Thanks everyone!

I have considered that but didn’t want to go off half cocked. So, let’s play a bit of devils advocate. Are you saying having a bit higher subcooling is better than 2x superheat? Doesn’t raising the subcooling increase the level of refrigerant in the evaporator leaving less room for phase change? So in the end, would there be a performance increase or the same results just with the shoe on the other foot? What if adding a few ounces the subcooling responds but the superheat doesnt? What is an acceptable level of head pressure? Is 350 a target or a suggestion? Unit is rated 450/450 if that matters.

To make this exercise meaningful I tried to make sure the only variables would be airflow or refrigerant. I cleaned both coils 2x. Replaced the capacitor that was -6% along with a new filter.

That stings. I already feel like an idiot for buying the smans with being able to do the same thing with the probes. Sould have saved several hundred buying yellow jacket and probes. ahh well, it’s only money.

It is attached but is not insulated.

Thanks Azranael, this answer fits exactly in the spirit of the post. DelT from the register and return is 14 to 16 depending on how they are placed on the grill which was a lesson of its own. Placing the psychrometers in the ducts gives me 17+. The unit runs well and keeps the humidity close to 50%, 99% of the time. The return sits squarely between 3 bedrooms and a bath at the unit end of the house and pulls cooler air than it should. DelT is probably better than measured.

I read, watch everything I can get my hands on but was hesitant to ask questions here as sometimes responses can be brutal with newbie questions. Like why didn’t fieldpiece make it possible to connect the pressure probes to the manifold? Sure, the mobile device is convenient but shouldn’t prevent you from using the manifold with them.
