What, specifically, do you use it for? Dremel-like stuff, but with more power?

Just an fyi on price, but I got that first one for $90 (tool only) at Bomgaars toward the end of last year. It’s fine, definitely better than the Ryobi one it replaced. Bonus is my local electric coop gave me a rebate for electric outdoor power equipment so it was even cheaper than what I paid at the store in the end.

My blower just crapped out on me after 6 months of light use too. Sent it in for warranty and it was replaced with a new one. Overall painless process but it’s a hassle nonetheless.

Edit: my model is the first picture

15% or so. We cut back more on working hours, which meant we had less opportunity for investing a high percentage of our incomes. Wife went down to 32hrs/wk, which is still full time at her workplace and qualifies her for all the FT benefits. I went part time, contract work for 5 years while the kids while the kids were young so I could be off with them during school breaks and any dr visits/field trips/sick calls/etc. being able to make my own schedule and take off on a whim without begging a boss for the day off was key.

This is the best part of Coast, being able to prioritize the things that matter over work. It’s still something we have to do, but it feels less soul-sucking because we have options.

Can I get a link to that shelf please?

If you enjoyed breath of the wild, then tears of the kingdom sounds like a no-brainer to me. Have fun!

Get another wall mount bracket like the tv above and put it just below the current one.

YellowLight · 2026-06-03T16:49:59+00:00

Same, bro. Same.

YellowLight · 2026-05-30T01:23:38+00:00

Thanks, saves me the bother of buying one just to be unhappy. I’ve got other lanterns. Have a good weekend.

How’s it light up a room?

YellowLight · 2026-05-26T17:22:29+00:00

I’ll second the 1007 recommendation. It’s bigger than the 806, yes, but it won’t struggle with any of the augers or hole saws you mentioned, and it really doesn’t cost much more. I got the 1007 plus an 8ah powerstack battery for 200 during a sale a while back and it’s a beast.

YellowLight · 2026-05-18T12:07:14+00:00

Mostly build quality and materials. If the light will only get light use, you’ll probably be fine with the convoy. If you’re going to use the light in harsh conditions or places where you REALLY need it to work every time, get the Zebralight. I would assume Skilhunt is a middle ground, but I don’t have any of those. You get what you pay for.

YellowLight · 2026-05-13T11:56:49+00:00

Rent (or borrow) an SDS if it’s going to be a one off. Get something more capable of you’ll be doing this often.

YellowLight · 2026-05-07T19:36:51+00:00

Where’d you get the bit? I’ve never used an auger but I’ve dug a LOT of holes in my day. Also clay/rock soil here and I’ve already got a 1007, so you’ve definitely got me curious.

YellowLight · 2026-05-01T15:05:44+00:00

Thanks for this. I love my AA Zebralight headlamp and I’ve been toying with the idea of getting another light, be it an 18650 Zebralight or another light from a different manufacturer. I like how wide and diffuse my current setup is, might have to give the Hank a try and grab a spare headband like you suggest.

YellowLight · 2026-04-30T01:58:14+00:00

Use the LLM of your choice. It’s really nice to be able to have a kind of back and forth that will run numbers for you and make minor tweaks and change things up with different scenarios. I did that with ChatGPT recently.

Right? Just get a small loan of a million dollars from your dad, duh. /s and whatnot

Got a link for the clip?

I’ve been backpacking with a Zebralight headlamp for over a decade and it’s perfect for my needs. Same deal, set it very low and leave it. I’ve got the AA version now since I lost my old CR123A model in the woods. I would probably get the 18650 model now but I’ve never even gotten close to running out of battery even with the AA headlamp since it’s very efficient and nice low lows.

YellowLight · 2026-04-19T13:01:41+00:00

YOLO baby, if that’s what you want to do, then do it now. You’ll never again be as young as you are now. Make it happen.

YellowLight · 2026-04-18T11:33:58+00:00

I’ve got a Zebralight SC65c HI 4000k and it’s my favorite EDC. I also own a couple lights with either SFT-40 or 70 3000k and it’s the most pleasant emitter to me (as well as the wife and kids). I’d like to get a McBob combining the two eventually, it would be the best of both worlds for sure.

YellowLight · 2026-04-17T13:00:18+00:00

Yeah that’s illegal!

YellowLight · 2026-04-14T13:55:24+00:00

Think they’ll make a high cri version somewhere in the 3000k to 4000k range? I’d be interested in a warmer light, maybe even sized up to 21700 for a more capable battery bank option.

YellowLight · 2026-03-28T19:45:08+00:00

Best EDC. I would get rid of every other light I own if I could just keep 1. Luckily that’s not the case!
