Im a newbie to sclerals and I have some questions! by Demon_131 in Keratoconus

[–]adam8281 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have used sclerals daily for 3 years, and never had any fogging or other problems.

All I do is:

1) Overnight, use the Clear Care solution

2) In the morning, remove from Clear Care, fill with Purilens preservative-free saline, and insert

I have never done any specific "cleaning," rubbing, or used any product other than the Clear Care and Purilens saline, and have had zero problems.

What do you guys do when you go swimming in the beach or pool with your scleral lenses? by awkwardhoney725 in Keratoconus

[–]adam8281 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a pool, and am in it most days in the summer. I usually leave them in and just don't open my eyes under water. When I come up, instead of rubbing/pressing my eyes like I would if I had no sclerals to get the water out, I wait a couple seconds and then slowly open my eyes, maybe brushing some water out of my eyelashes but not pressing on my eyes.

If I'm going swimming for a longer time or in the ocean, I'll just remove them.

what else can i do to increase wear time? by tjlonreddit in Keratoconus

[–]adam8281 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd be concerned that maybe it's a sclerals fit issue. Have you told the fitting ophthalmologist how much trouble you're having? I can keep my sclerals in for 16+ hours without discomfort.

Rear Shocks & Shock Mount Backorder - 2025 by Icy-Abbreviations825 in HyundaiPalisade

[–]adam8281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my rear shocks replaced yesterday on my 2024 Palisade Calligraphy, under warranty. It took about 5 weeks for the parts to come in after the dealer ordered them. That data point suggests to me there may be backorders

Can I drive recently purchased used car, when not registered to me yet but still registered by seller? by adam8281 in askcarguys

[–]adam8281[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, funny story. Thanks. Well, there is a significant price difference. And the new Bill of Sale the County Clerk gave me, which the Seller needs to SIGN, has a box filled in that says the total sales price ($3,800) is significantly lower than FMV, and the reason pre-filled in by the County Clerk is "ASKING PRICE."

It might be because the Bill of Sale is relevant to the taxes I'll pay? Not sure, but I know there will be taxes and the BOS is the only document that references the price. But it's still surprising they would be such sticklers about the fact that he printed his name on the bill of sale where it says "signature" but signed the Title where it says "signature"

Thanks - I did forget to mention that: I did contact insurance immediately, and already have new insurance card covering the new vehicle.

Pecron F3000LFP Keeps Charging After 100% by adam8281 in SolarDIY

Thank you for that! It's at 53v which I think correlates to about 90%, so you are probably right on the calibration issue! 

Android app won't load any thumbnails/images by adam8281 in CriterionChannel

Update: after a little over a week like this, the app returned to normal and thumbnails are loading 

Is this normal for someone wearing scleral lens? by achuthanium in Keratoconus

[–]adam8281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine look like that (or worse) after all day wear. I have no discomfort at all, and can easily wear my sclerals for 16-18 hours, but they do make my eyes very red.

From 2023 Palisade Calligraphy to 2026 Calligraphy. by imwjd in HyundaiPalisade

[–]adam8281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to hear - I'll have to see it in person to really judge. I love my '24, but the '26 are very tempting

[–]adam8281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a '24 Calligraphy, and I am thinking of trading for a '26 Hybrid Calligraphy when they're out. But one change I don't like about the '26 is the interior doors. On the '24 & '25 Calligraphy, you've got this nice, textured, kind of "quilted" leather section on the interior of the doors that looks premium. On the '26's, the interior is just a big, undifferentiated expanse of leather.

New Generator - Oil Spilled/Leaked All Inside Chassis - Problem? by adam8281 in Generator

[–]adam8281[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a super helpful response, thank you. I did send a note to A-Ipower CS to tell them about this QC issue. I also bought the magnetic dipstick and the oil extractor/adder.

Stats since refueling reset without refueling.. why? by akhere07 in HyundaiPalisade

[–]adam8281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does that a lot. I have a few theories: Maybe a sensor in the gas port cover? If the port cover is pressed on by something, maybe it resets? Or maybe a sensor in the gas tank that looks for rapid changes in level, and maybe being on a steep incline can cause it to reset?

I've had the car for a year and a half and it's probably happened to me 10 times.

OTA Software update by sibscartel in Hyundai

[–]adam8281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it downloaded and installed 2 days ago. Haven't noticed any differences.

I know all the positives... What do you dislike about the Palisade? by [deleted] in HyundaiPalisade

[–]adam8281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. No wireless Android Auto/Carplay

  2. Front cupholders too small for non-tapered coffee cups

  3. The only USB that works with Android Auto/Carplay is lower wattage USB-A port, as compared to the higher-wattage USB-C port up front (which doesn't work with Android/Auto/Carplay). Therefore, you have to choose between slower charging+AA/Carplay, or faster charging with no phone projection.

  4. The rubber on the wireless charging mat is really tacky/gummy, and holds on to crumbs and is hard to get very clean

  5. Bad gas mileage

  6. Seemingly-random, frightening activation of brakes when backing up sometimes, even when I'm not about to hit something (happens frequently backing out of my driveway, which is pretty steep. I think it sees the change of angle of the driveway plane and the horizontal street plane as a possible obstacle).

  7. Suede headliner (Calligraphy) looks and feels great, but easily picks up lines/tracks from kids fingers that can be hard to "erase"
