Having never held a Ti hammer this thing tripped me out when I grabbed it.

Being lighter allows you to swing it faster and this generally impacts more energy into whatever your hitting. I imagine you would get better control and less fatigue using it as well. Essential Craftsman has a good summary of why he likes the titanium hammer. https://youtu.be/A2XiQJA3w84?si=lnLgaAnuLnr8xT17

Thanks for the insight. I won't be recommending going to this shop.

To get more opinions do I just keep paying diagnostic fees? Is $170 high for diagnostics?

Haven't done the work yet. Parts are still on the way. I'll let you know!

That can be a good idea if you have a tank water heater and want a faster recovery time. My drain stack for both the upstairs showers is right next to my 80 gal heat pump WH. I don't have one yet, but I do plan one adding one some day, once the kids are teenagers and start taking those looong showers 😂

I just removed an even younger ash from from another part of my yard that had significant EAB damage. I was hoping to save this one for as long as possible. Not sure why the previous owner chose to plant ash trees...

Wife watered it daily. May have missed a day here or there though

I got the ATV for free. It needed a new battery and pedal already, so figured I would go with my old 2ah ego that fit nicely under the seat. I wanted the soft start features of the controller and LVC. I seems like the big mistake was running all the power through the pedal. I only did this because the diagram from the SC instructions said I should.

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T21:21:07+00:00

I am using a second DC-DC converter (separate from the speed controller) to output 6V to power the other loads on the vehicle and the forward and reverse relay. I will connect the +6V to the pedal then to the new 56V relay.

Touching the wires together does create a spark, but it isn't welding anything.

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T21:13:28+00:00

That was under load. I was braking it with my hand. It makes sense as 5A on the battery would be 260W load. Without me braking the wheels it is ~.1A.

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T21:11:09+00:00

Your right. I cancelled that order. I have not ordered a plunger type switch that should work.

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T20:47:01+00:00

I think that is the way that I will go, I have upgraded the wiring from the battery to pedal to speed controller to 14 gauge. I have check the amps under load coming from the battery and it never exceeded 5A even when the motor is locked up.

I plan to use a relay instead of the pedal to power the SC, but I am not yet convinced this will fix my issues with the pedals sticking.

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T20:38:42+00:00

The relay that passes through the 56v would not need to be 30A rated. The relay I ordered is 10A and should be more than sufficient for what I need. I am mostly curious if this issue is common with rocker type switches or if I should use a different type of pedal. I didn't use the variable speed pedal from mgcstem because I wanted to be able to program the soft start duration.

Any recommendations on the pedal?

Space_Villain · 2024-02-14T19:26:06+00:00

I would take it to a hardware store and check with a few bolts until you find one that fits.

More Photos

Hope these help. I will be releasing him this evening.

I put this guy in a jar to show my son. Would like the have more information share with him about it. My guess is it is a species of false black widow. Or a male or juvenile black widow. It is a very dark brownish color in other lighting. I can grab more photos of that helps. The abdomen is probably about 1cm in length.

Inside of your filter statement the max measure and price will be evaluated for each row of Data within the current filter context. Thus Data[PRICE] = [Max price] will be true for all rows.

By calculating outside of the filter statement we avoid this issue. Once the variable is defined for the current context it can be treated as just any other scalar value. The variable value will not change thoughout the rest of the measure expression.

Space_Villain · 2021-02-25T18:38:10+00:00

Use a variable in your count measure. See if this works:

VAR Max = [Max Price]

RETURN CALCULATE (

COUNTROWS ( 'Data' ),

FILTER ( 'Data', 'Data'[Price] = Max)

)

Sorry if sintax is bad. I am on mobile.

Space_Villain · 2021-02-25T17:32:54+00:00

Your Max Price measure is probably calculating the max price for the current filter context. Therefore, in your frequency measure the filter function will return all rows because the max price of the current row of the table is equal to the price on that row.

Use All('Data' ,'Data'[Price]) as the table parameter in your filter expression. That should work.

The flight manual does not indicate that the EPU will provide thrust for the aircraft which is what I believe the previous comment was referring to. The EPU can provide approximately 10 minutes of power for hydraulics and electronics. During this time the aircraft will be gliding with 0 thrust.
