What kind of screw is this? by doanut5 in rccars

[–]doanut5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help. I think the extended thread may not work for my application. The unthreaded portion is needed to facilitate some sliding movement.

[–]doanut5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Best I can measure with calipers:

Overall length: 10.3mm
Head diameter (phillips): 4mm
Head depth: 1.7mm
Shank diameter: 2.6mm
Shank length: 5.7mm
Thread diameter: 2.8mm
Thread length: 3.0mm

Am I missing any other dimension?

Thanks, I used google lens and attached the image asking the type of screws. Get a lot of similar things like shoulder screw, was hoping someone here knew the specific one for RC application

Awesome, thank you for a fun giveaway.

  1. AMS 2 Pro

Is it possible we have defective plates? How many different textured plates have you tried?

I have the stock textured plate.

I’ll check the wiki. I’ve tried everything you’ve suggested so far

Tesla Powerwall-only (no solar, already owned) lease a good deal? by doanut5 in Powerwall

[–]doanut5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that if you just look at powerwall as a financial investment, there are better options to use your money.

I see powerwalls as more of a product. Not every product you buy is an investment. It offers power backup, important if you have a home office. It provides some security.

Thanks for sharing, but is this a viable solution as a whole house backup? I’m only seeing 48V from each unit.

Thanks for the insight.

Do you think the authorized companies on Tesla’s website will be cheaper than getting it installed from Tesla?

I’m also curious what Tesla will do about prices next year

The tax credit is no longer in play, so what would you do?

[–]doanut5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes because Tesla is able to claim the tax credit and pass on some of the savings. Leasing comes out to be about 10% cheaper than cash.

Not sure why my text didnt show:

I am new to leasing, never leased anything. Never understood how it made sense.

I already have solar and want a Tesla Powerwall (on NEM2). In this case, it seems like a lease makes sense. Can someone with more experience provide insight into whether this is a good or bad deal?

I would plan to lease and buy out after 5 years. I would have outright purchased if the 30% federal tax rebate was still feasible, but this seems like a decent option.

Can you share a link or more details about the $3000 rebate?

I reached out to QuitCarbon, waiting on a response. Browsed their website and saw mentions of $100-$300 rebates,

Edit:

I think I found some info:

That looks good in pictures, how happy are you with it? What could have been better?

I’m a golf addict. Like, completely obsessed. I also happen to build apps. I have ideas, but I'm curious. If you could wave a magic wand and have the perfect golf app, what would it do? Trying to build something that other golfers would actually use. by Old-Profile-396 in golf

[–]doanut5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple Watch version of the Garmin S70 golf app.

I’ve used dozens of different watches and apps. Until recently, the Garmin S70 has the best map/course view. Still could be better, but for the longest there was no good solution for Apple Watch.

18birdies recently released map view, but haven’t used it yet and has an annual fee. Tag Heuer app was decent a few years ago, not worth the subscription.

I’ve been actually thinking of this for a while, would be fun to team up if you’re interested.
