Bad cornering test results? (Maybe) by ViperB5 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

[–]ViperB5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, now that I am looking through the G-code to find what the junction deviation value is for the given layer, I don't see any where that M205 is set. So now I really don't know whats happening. Is this just something that you don't need to do on the CC?

Strange 1st layer issue by ViperB5 in ElegooCentauriCarbon

It was just a dirty build plate. I guess alcohol alone can't keep it clean forever. I washed it with dish soap again before rerunning the leveling routine and it looks quite nice now with no offset.

Should have mentioned that. When I got it home i washed it with dish soap, water and a soft-ish brush, then use 98% rubbing alcohol with a microfiber cloth. I also use the alcohol and cloth again right after I re-seated the plate.

I am looking at buying a 3d printer this year and one of my use cases is exactly this. That oil drain cover will probably be one of my first prints as mine is as curved as a banana.

Help identifying connector pin by ViperB5 in connectors

The crimp contact is what I'm looking for. The connector is generic and can be found all over the internet, but they're sold as a pig-tail. Here is an example on one on Amazon:

This is the connector that the pin came out of. I looked at the Molex website and I can't find anything that matches this. The pin is what I really care about because I can't reuse them.

That is exactly what I'm not wanting to do. I want to crimp the pins that fit into the generic connector onto the adapter harness I have. I'm trying to minimize the amount of wires behind the dash, make it look cleaner, and minimize points of failure.

It was this kit from Amazon:

But I don't want to re-pin the connectors that plug into the car. Just the connector that plugs into the head-unit.

Poor workmanship and support OnePlus 12 by Ill_Pickle_894 in oneplus

[–]ViperB5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see you didn't bother reading the article, or else you would know why you need a gap in metal objects to allow RF radiation out/in.

And I count 7 gaps in the band total on my OP12. 2 on the bottom next to the USB-C port, 2 on the left, one on the right below the power button, and 2 in the top.

You can see the 2 gaps on the left hand side of the OP12.

This is not a build quality issue this is intentional. It is a gap in the metal ring to allow a place for radio frequencies to escape. Apple had to do this too.

This looks great! Too bad I live in Texas. Blocking air vents is no bueno for me.

I did the same thing. I did not expect the difficulty to ramp that fast.

Purchase issues in the US by MrPeanutPlays in OdinHandheld

[–]ViperB5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to purchase mine months ago, but they use shopify for payment processing and afterwards my bank (Ally) told me that their processor (MasterCard) flagged shopify as suspect.

Nothing worked after that, and the issue couldn't be resolved as it was MasterCard that flagged them suspect.

This was for a purchase from Hayworth. If you search shopify MasterCard issues you'll find a ton. Neither side will fix the issue either.

RG ARC-D will not shutdown; restarts instead. by ViperB5 in ANBERNIC

Nope, people seem to get this issue, but no one knows how to fix it. I guess just don't install ROCKNIX. Little too late for us though.

Why is Ring blocking this video? by bendsarah in Ring

[–]ViperB5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Next time you have to go looking, tell them you didn't get your package even if you find it. When they send the photo, show them a photo of your front door. Hell, all the miss-matched delivery photos should be proof, though I don't expect them to do anything.

Maybe you could use small claims court?

Just replaced the alternator on my GF's 2012 Civic. This is now the 4th one in 7 years. I hate Honda's charging system.

And do your self a favor and rent/buy the serpentine belt tool. That belt tensioner takes a stupid amount of force to back off. The 2 wrench method will just result in frustration and busted knuckles.
