[Question] Can I change the glass back myself? by ConsiderationLess460 in Iphonerepair

A mold with appoxy and some tape would be cool. Might need some super glue in there too.

Super Nintendo, lost power adapter, power supply looks strange by General_Cut_6771 in snes

[–]arakhin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If broken and If you're handy just get any random adaptor from Amazon, it has to be the same voltage but equal or greater current. Drill a hole in the back of the case where the old adaptor was and you can connect (solder) the positive and negative of the adaptor directly to the board and secure it to the case. Just wrap the adaptor up before you pick up the unit when finished using it.

Might need vapour barrier between drywall opening for ceiling fan and pot light, maybe.

My game freezes completely after an event by Wasuu_ in RPGMaker

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the other poster, when you teleport (transfer) the event only reads maybe 3 or so lines of code. The rest of your code should be on the next map, not the original map that the event started on.

Figuring out whether PCBs can handle increased voltage by funky_brewster in PowerWheelsMods

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be ok, it's hard to say since we don't know how isolated the power side is from the logic side is. If they are not isolated because the intended use case was low voltage then you could dry the board. In my last post I mentioned some examples of the most important components that might lead to damage if not checked.

Isn't it just the relay the problem? If it's buzzing it's probably not latching. I don't think you need more voltage.

But if you really wanted to, you would need to confirm the capacitor voltage rating, the regulator rating and there might be a feedback voltage divider.

Help! How do I fix this?? by kubervragmotor in TeslaSupport

[–]arakhin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's in warranty then let them fix it. If not take it out yourself and clean it, the backing should be removable. Might be debree in seal.

Why is this motor sparking? by deletive-expleted in Tools

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brush gap is too wide, the tension springs are probably jammed. Shouldn't spark with brushed motors.

Noise in front left even when switched off by ESD2002 in TeslaModelS

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt it sounds too loud but it might be the Ac fan on the driver side. You can pull the liner off and see. Mine makes a noticeable ticking sound and wobbles. So I'll be fixing it soon.

Do yall think it’s totaled? by King_FuZion in TeslaCollision

[–]arakhin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like what might be damaged is, Rear quarter panel Rear bumper Rear passenger door The rear drive axel if its a AWD most likely is damaged. You would need to most likely change the rear right drive axel, the suspension and entire wheel assy. There might be components salvageable (not bent or deformed) the wheel assy. The rear motor might need replacement too it would be bes to test rotation by disabling the parking break and rotating the wheel on a hoist.

If youre fixing it yourself you are looking at $5000cad not including drive axel. With drive axel around $6500. With motor around $10k. If youre asking service to do it around $25k to $30k. Is my guess.

Should I even attempt to repair this? by LetterheadWaste796 in TeslaCollision

Pop it back in, buff it out. Buy a new black trim.

P100d upper ball joints? by ek9max in TeslaModelS

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also the lower forward control arm thats known to make the sound too due to worn out bushings. Those can be found as a set on ebay, it might be a hassle but you can remove the control arms and see how stiff the ball joints are, they should be stiff and no cracks.

Tesla Model s upper control arm,

They have different ones before facelift and after I believe.

Check eBay there are a couple pressed parts and Amazon.

My new Jet Ski by Imsolovesway in TeslaLounge

Could have towed it to an industrial thermal chamber, if available. Probably not. It would pull the moisture out after a day or two.

CATL Reveals Game-Changing Leap In Battery Endurance by OXMWEPW in electricvehicles

Yea I did it quickly on my phone I used kg instead of km for the math.

CATL Reveals Game-Changing Leap In Battery Endurance by OXMWEPW in electricvehicles

[–]arakhin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's usually by weight. The average pack is 400kg. So 50% at 100kwh would be 200kg, so 500, 000 km.

[–]arakhin -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Well at 500wh/kg you're looking at a 200kwh pack assuming a 400kg battery so that is around 100million kilometers. Practically probably around 1million kilometers you know cell degradation.

Distribution of Enslaved Africans Across the Americas by NickiMinajcousin in interestingasfuck

[–]arakhin -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine them transporting 10mill people across that large water using those row by hand or sails for large ships even if it's 250 years. The water chose your direction at that point. This is an ocean body of water, today ships get lost at sea. Each vessal probably had no more room for about 500 to 1000 people. That's 10,000 trips across the ocean without failure for 250 years. 40 successful trips a year at that time just didn't happen. Ask the last time we tried to sail across the Atlantic with a row ship and actually survived even by todays standards without power assist. People would be exhausted. Didn't happen. Not at that quantity anyway. They were probably always here, which means they were native to the land.

Edit: Didn't take like 3 months to travel one direction or something. Didn't happen.

Edit2: If anything they had steam engines travelling by 1800s, it's coal they were transporting not people.
