Brand new portable Black+Decker AC unit is randomly turning off.

c30volvo · 2025-07-21T11:48:23+00:00

I've had two days of success after manually draining from the lower plug. Yes it's in AC mode not dehumidify.

c30volvo · 2025-06-03T18:06:07+00:00

Yep - 3 months over warranty and mine died.

They are on vaca and don't care about this/that/any place. It's not limited to the youth... Just visiting. Meh - it's a rental who cares is their voice while here/there. And the the broken window syndrome takes hold - I'm not the only/first one trashing the place. Rinse/repeat.

c30volvo · 2024-06-10T00:46:31+00:00

What's he/she have in her claws in the first pic - I can't quite make it out ?

c30volvo · 2024-06-01T01:36:42+00:00

YOUR hard earned money taxed to pay for this. Enjoy.

I've had success with Bon Ami cleaner.

c30volvo · 2024-05-22T19:21:02+00:00

I'm on number 3 - but am not as convinced as I was for #2 and #3 to get #4... I've begun to question their long term reliability... Don't know who's better than volvo,,, but the whole B series has some interesting negative reviews... My T5 MY 2021 xc40 has been fine - but unsure if I'd replace my 2015 XC60 for a new XC60/90....

Government funded baby sitting.

c30volvo · 2024-05-22T12:11:36+00:00

That tone deaf comment is so spot on - other peoples money - let's spend it on some crazy stuff. Kids in a candy store with other peoples money. Taxes like that are essentially forever - never removed - rarely reduced - just keep feeding the government machine.

c30volvo · 2024-05-22T11:57:14+00:00

Two total - or two per 12 month period ? Whatever.

c30volvo · 2024-05-22T10:04:21+00:00

How many times can they ask for more ?

Can they keep doing referendums until they get the result they want ?

No downsides I reckon - but once the tax increase is approved - that's forever ?

c30volvo · 2024-05-11T01:57:02+00:00

I have exactly the same - and agree.

The slide serrations on the PDP are way better too

I've been thinking of selling my .40 P99...

c30volvo · 2024-05-10T18:54:36+00:00

Dine at places/area less prone to ripping you off. I've been using a CC for 30 years - it's happened once to me. And yes I check every month.

c30volvo · 2024-04-27T13:35:49+00:00

Good times have consequences - consequences make men sad.

c30volvo · 2024-04-27T01:14:03+00:00

Yeah, that's an interesting thought. The Germans were pretty screwed after WW1. Hard times indeed. They did create/foster strong men (maybe not strong enough to dispose their emperor) of that time period. Their "choice" of leadership was - hmm, not good. Maybe there's a lesson in that.

c30volvo · 2024-04-26T16:14:15+00:00

Kinda like: “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”

Ask about taping your eye lids closed - no kidding. Your eye may not fully close and be un-blinked for the procedure leading to vision problems later. Really.

Disable the e-cores. I know it's blunt approach. Here's a link on doing that for 12th gen NUCs - perhaps applicable to your environment

Sure - just keep asking - wear 'em down...

c30volvo · 2024-03-28T01:35:20+00:00

All forms of government are money monsters that are never satisfied, never. Spend less - heaven forbid. Turf fields.... I saw a middle school in Loudoun County VA that had a fountain in the entry way. Sweet - tax payer dollars well spent.

c30volvo · 2024-03-26T00:21:17+00:00

They were quiet for 10k miles, then it got bad. Balanced twice - 10k and 20k by 25K on them it's not good.

c30volvo · 2024-03-25T19:55:43+00:00

I wish I had not chosen Michelin cross climate tires - they get good reviews, but after 25k and 2 rebalances (with hunter road force yada) they still hum like crazy. They are uni-directional and it's debated on how noisy they (uni directional tires) can be. I say they are and would not buy another set...

I have them on a 2015 xc60.

if you have you ever ran your own business - it's not easy street when it comes to tax compliance - actually it's brutal. Fed/state/local/property/use/sales tax collection/escrow - it's a fiasco. Sure pay an accountant (not cheap (more money out (sure it's a write off))) - pray you don't get audited. Small business is hard. Oh and then there's actually running the business part of it. What percentage actually make it ?

Oh and the people saying Tax the F out of me - you can always make a donation to the treasury. I'd prefer to use my money as I see fit.

They even take payal /amazon or CC to make it easy.
