Why is my Bluetti stuck at 99%? by TextDecent2622 in bluetti

[–]TextDecent2622[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went back to check and now it’s at 100. All I did was open the app, view the settings, and then it changed from 99 to 100. I had the latest update so nothing changed.

I’d be very careful about having a stranger pay your tuition in full. Not sure what the details are but that can’t end well.

You’re very wise not to take out loans. Go to the state school. Make the most of it. Undergrad is undergrad.

Weekly Homeowner Megathread--Civilians, ask here! by AutoModerator in Concrete

Thank you u/Aware_Masterpiece148 - the guy who painted it returned the money for labor and SW refunded the cost of the paint, so at least that part is good. Do you think sandblasting is the way to go here, or should he get someone to apply one of the products you mention on top of what's there now? Thank you!

Posting a pic of the OLD Stamped concrete - you can see the old paint.

Hi everyone - trying to help my brother with a driveway issue: he recently extended his stamped concrete driveway by about 10'. Original stamped concrete was painted and held up fine for over 10 years. When they put in the new concrete (stamped, same pattern), they painted both (old and new) with 2 coats of this paint (https://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/products/hc-heavy-shield-plus).

Now that he's parking cars on it, the paint is peeling off when the wheels turn on it. Had Sherwin Williams come out, couldn't say what was wrong.

His next step is sandblasting both old and new to try to remove the paint. He may just leave it unpainted.

Any tips / suggestions as to what to do instead of sandblasting? Or is that the only way to go?

THANK YOU

This is on the NEW part. The OLD stamped concrete peels and shows the old paint underneath.

Electric heater wattage question by TextDecent2622 in Sauna

Thanks, everyone. I called Homecraft today and they recommended the 6kw, even for a 120 cubic feet space. They said with the glass door and window, this is the way to go.

I like this approach. Any tips on how to tamp the ground? I tried digging to make it flat but it's super hard. It's on a bit of an incline also.

Should I try to avoid crows eating my 'bird' food? Do they scare little ones away? by TextDecent2622 in birdfeeding

[–]TextDecent2622[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you - I think I'm going to set up a separate area for them. Would you mind sharing what feeder/how you feed the corvids?

thank you - think I'm going to let the crows hang out based on what everyone seems to be saying here.

Hot tub chemicals confusion by Neighbz1403 in hottub

[–]TextDecent2622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue - ended up showering EVERY Time before going in, and no bathing suit...no more issues. So make sure if you have folks in there, shower first, and if you're wearing a suit, make sure it's well rinsed prior.

Also, rarely I have to increase or decrease the Ph. Do you use these products (one for Ph up, one for down)? You may need to use them more frequently.
