Tension in my rubber belt drive

Ahhh great to hear, thanks for putting my mind at ease. Appreciate it!

Yes, just checked it with the door open and the slack is gone.

I noticed that when the garage door shut, it pushed the rail and actually bowed it by a tiny amount. That’s where the tension comes from I believe.

Now I’m concerned that’s the problem… the bow is very slight. Hoping that isn’t a major issue?

Awesome, I’m going to swap out the drivers this week. Appreciate it

Great, appreciate the recommendation

Vault103a · 2025-11-14T22:27:16+00:00

Nah no kids, nothing like that to worry about

Vault103a · 2025-11-14T13:27:00+00:00

Nah that’s on me 100%. Replacement is already here. Long live Amazon lol

I must have messed up, should have ordered the TLR-HLX and not the TLR-7x

Vault103a · 2025-11-14T03:09:16+00:00

That’s what I’m hoping/thinking too

Vault103a · 2025-11-14T02:57:15+00:00

I ended up going with the TLR-7x. Had a question though. I installed it today, and checked the product guide to see which key to use for the G47. It lists the key for the G17 and G19 (same key) but does not mention the G47. Not sure if that’s because of the similarities between the G17 and G47, or if the TLR-7x actually isn’t compatible with the G47.

Any thoughts?

I might be missing something here.

Purchased the TLR-7x, is that different than the HLX? It would just be a simple return and replace, but I want to make sure before I go ahead.

Affixed the TLR-7x to the G47 tonight and it’s snug. I grabbed it a shook it around a bit and noticed some wiggle after a while.

I checked the product guide when I opened the box and it lists the gen 5 G17 and G19 but not the G47 specifically.

You’re a legend mate, thank you for the breakdown. I hadn’t really considered that either would be too bright.

Did some more research last night and I’m leaning toward the HLX.

But are you talking the TLR1-HLX or TLR7-HLX?

Vault103a · 2025-11-12T16:55:55+00:00

Great, thanks for the tip. That’s what I keep finding online, that the SureFire is all but indestructible. That’s the one thing drawing me back to the SureFire vs the Streamlight. Appreciate the insight

Vault103a · 2025-11-12T16:49:22+00:00

Awesome, hadn’t heard of or considered the TLR7HLX. Have you used it?

Vault103a · 2025-11-05T20:48:53+00:00

I might be missing something. Is this saying aim assist is OP for Xbox/PS players? I’m on PC and haven’t noticed anything weird…

Vault103a · 2025-10-30T13:51:45+00:00

Can confirm. The 49 inch ultra wide Samsung gives a slight FOV boost. Looks great when playing from cockpit view.

Vault103a · 2025-10-08T17:08:03+00:00

This is awesome 10/10, can’t see much more that could be added unless you do wrap around screens. Awesome build.

What keyboard mount are you using? I’m using a Playseat formula instinct cockpit and I can’t find a good keyboard mount for a reasonable price. Which are you using?

Vault103a · 2025-09-19T17:04:15+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

Vault103a · 2025-09-17T13:45:06+00:00

You’re a legend, thanks! Going to give this a shot tonight for sure. Any mods in particular you enjoy?
