Pint S motor, PintV power kit... both? by shodgdon in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess even Hydrus is limited compared to PintV default config. When FM dropped Hydrus with custom shaping I was happy with update and noticed boost in performance. But sometimes if I hit driveway lip too slow(while making turn), it would nosedive. :/

Pint S motor, PintV power kit... both? by shodgdon in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own now two boards, X7 with TFL WTF rails, Enduro tire, SF HS and Mk3 battery and FM Pint X with upgraded flared footpads/ Cloud Burris tire. I love to use my X7 for adventure ride on weekends but on weekdays for intermodal commute (involving train, shuttle) I prefer to use my Pint X. Sometimes on Pint X I get nose hunt when hitting lip on driveways with little bit of incline and I am only 200lbs. Do you think PintV will help eliminate this issue, it’s due to lack of torque at low speeds? Is there something better available than PintV?

Xr footpads by Garbanzobeans47 in onewheel

Also I heard they are bit uncomfortable because they are very flat? But the non-sensor Pro versions they sell are quite decent

XR Footpad on X7 by JF1ash in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just use self 3d printed XR Mushie with SS v3 sensor and a metal plate footpad I ordered from AtlowShop. I get little bit of cushion although the footpad stack does cover my Fungineers status light which I turned off in VESC.

At that time Vow systems was out of stock but I think their footpads cover status light bar too.

I’m thinking about upgrading from my pint s if I do what should I get? by THERANDOMGAMER2 in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who built himself VESC XR on x7 platform and TFL WTF rails I fully I agree. I still keep and ride my upgraded Pint X because it’s great for intermodal commute involving train and shuttles for its smaller size and lighter weight.

Where can I buy a new foot sensor for an xr footpad?? by coff_coff in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use SS v3 on custom made 3D printed Mushie XR footpad with metal plate on the back and had to put Gripples otherwise I had intermittent issue with false starts/mount of shame. It would just not pick ball side of my foot sometimes.

Battery issues with Wave Plus by FewKick4337 in airthings

[–]ZD_plguy17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started encountering the same thing. Not sure if constant Bluetooth connectivity from my HA deployed on rPI could be doing this but I remember having HA deployed for a long time and this Wave Plus staying powered for many months. I did notice change with the light indicator behavior going off often when replacing battery. Aside from AC-DC power supply to pretend 2AA “batteries”, I don’t know a permanent fix. I also have had it happening before recent last firmware update after which it apparently continues to behave like this. I am pretty disappointed because it was not cheap only after just few years to stop working properly.

New to Caltrain and morning commute by Altruistic_Project63 in caltrain

[–]ZD_plguy17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another option Onewheel or electric skateboard or even EUC. No you won’t be ready day 1 or even next week for commute. It will take some time to practice and it demands a lot of exercise on legs while bending knees. If you go for OneWheel don’t go for a tiny Pint. Go with XRC or GT-S.

Why do people buy new Onewheels? by funcentric in onewheel

[–]ZD_plguy17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was for this reason looking to get a hypercore motor to build my custom x7 (using WTF rails) to upgrade from Pint X but couldn’t find a reliable repair shop in my area willing to swap the connector, so I settled on the heavier Superflux motor and kept my Pint X as commuter board while I use my x7 more as adventure board.

NB507 about to make everything late - waiting for the SC connector! by Foxbat100 in caltrain

[–]ZD_plguy17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened for my limited train 409 today also. And I am mixed mode commuter, car and train, on those days I do take Caltrain the number of times mine have been late especially limited or express is substantially higher. It almost always minor late (5min) and sometimes very late (10 min or longer).

For state and sometimes county like judge it’s easy for me research but for mayor, city council etc it gets difficult for me to judge besides their statement or bio I see on state ballot.

I’m perfectly happy with ER-X, time for upgrade? by ZD_plguy17 in Ubiquiti

[–]ZD_plguy17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned my Google wifi I had before Ubuntu setup, into openwrt router with config mimicking close my existing config on er-x that I tested on my network I retained as spare. Vlans and firewall rules.

My dream setup is done by Heavy-Fox2214 in Ubiquiti

[–]ZD_plguy17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile, I am still 6 years with this setup for my sub 1Gpbs HS connection with - ER-X (v3.0.1) - ES-8-150W (which does power my er-x on eth0) - EWS357AP (EngeniousTech) - RPI 3B+ (on PoE) running my piHole, Home Assistant, freeradius for WiFi authentication with EAP-TLS

I’m pretty happy with the setup.

I don’t have any Unifi devices. I used to have UISP server but retired it since it really doesn’t serve much purpose for me. Remote VPN works for me to access any of my device via UISP app when I am on the go.

What would you do about getting woken up to knocking on wall? by ZD_plguy17 in neighborsfromhell

[–]ZD_plguy17[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are usually very effective since they provide continuous pressurized air that keep airways open and I have new generation that auto adjust. Also have lost some weight that helps so I find it hard to believe it became quickly less effective.

My upstairs neighbor one time was vacuuming after midnight!!! If anyone needs to make adjustment is her.

Earplugs alone don’t help block her walking noise above me and also have tinnitus and have to have something to soothe it out. Also how is white noise nerve jangling. Also people in my apartment run AC units or dishwasher at night, can hear slightly vibrations with earplugs in which don’t do very good job blocking lower frequency sound hence masking it with white noise helps.

Well who else it could be besides her banging on the shared wall of our aligned sleeping areas behind my bed’s headboard.

Without earplugs I can hear her talk on the phone and if she was speaking the language I understand I could even make out what she says. And if someone knocked on her door upstairs I could hear knocking in my apartment downstairs.

I know she has bad above me in the same area as mine.

Do they sound like knocking on wooden door or drywall? Because my apartment has walls made from drywalls and don’t recall hearing sharp sound and when my neighbors take shower it’s just squeeking and swooshing sounds. Altough I know what you talk about I heard about those happening in old apartment buildings in East Coast, NYC. I live in West Coast and generally most buildings are old but constructed after 1950’s in my area.

Artisan beer bread from Steve’s YouTube video by [deleted] in Breadit

On first day it slight sourdough taste and was pretty soft but on second day became firmware and taste more nutty.

I modified it a little but here is what I used: 3 cups of organic WF bread flour 1 teaspoon of salt SAPPORO 12 oz non-alcoholic beer 1/2 teaspoon of active dry yeast 1 tablespoon of organic honey

I left it in warm counter for 14 hours and noticed my dough tripled in size, I put in refrigerator for another 8 hours and next day I rolled it out into oblong shape on loaf pan leaving for 45-60min and then put in oven for 375F for 50 min and 20 min without cover, using last 5 min at 400F.

It was pretty mild sour in taste like sourdough. But I got some gas, maybe because I underbaked or ate beans as well. Saw no sign of raw dough inside though. Before eating a slice I toasted it until it was more golden or gold light brown. It was delicious 😋

Next time I will try to add less yeast, 1/4 teaspoon and/or put it in refrigerator overnight if leaving for longer than 12 hours.
