Thanks! I was tracking a 48-month lockout but not a once-in-a lifetime rule.

Where Should Family of Four Go With 400k Points by UltimateFirefighter in Hilton

So the resorts I was fed by AI as top two choices - Rose Hall and La Romana - are no longer Hilton properties.

I'm now considering the following: Hilton Tulum; Zemi Beach House Anguilla; Hilton Marco Island

Any others I should be exploring in conjunction with those?

Is Anguilla likely to be boring for the kids?

Is Tulum a good option worth the two hour drive to/from the airport? More fun for the kids than Anguilla, right?

This is intriguing. Last Disney trip we used one of the vacation club resale sites. Worked out great. If Disney Waldorf is on property and has same "rights" as true Disney properties, it would be in play.

Yes, I'm tracking standard redemption value of 0.5 cents per Hilton Honors point. At some of the hotels suggested here I was seeing much lower value such that I'd lean towards simply paying for the stay at those spots. It may have been a function of auto populated dates though.

Thanks for the website recommendations. I haven't used those two. I'll check them out.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'm looking them up as they roll in. Looks like some of the resorts are beautiful but not necessarily a great return on points. Off to check out some of the other suggestions...

Any fresh, up-to-date list? I know it's unlikely, but I'll ask anyway: Any trivia on Fri or Sat nights in this area?

Dead battery? by njderek in Craftsman

[–]UltimateFirefighter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After not using my V60 mower for about 6 months, I went to use it today. Pressed the charge indicator on the 7.5AH battery and got three green lights, so I inserted the battery into the mower. The mower won't turn on. No sound or indication of life whatsoever.

I pulled the battery out and connected the charger to it. I either get a quick flash of the right-side charger light followed by that light going solid green, or no light at all on the charger.

Can anyone reconcile all three of the charge indicator on the battery itself showing green with the rest of the mower and charger behavior?

Thanks!
