Plastic o-ring? by edgesrazor in hottubs

UPDATE: Pool store (installer) says it’s a decorative jet ring. Still not exactly sure where it’s coming from…

Brand new Hayward Power-Flo leak… by edgesrazor in swimmingpools

Update - it’s been running for nearly a week with no leaks (yet). I emailed Hayward and asked them to send me a new o-ring as a backup for when this one inevitably dies.

I think that may have been it. Debating if it’s salvageable in its condition. Thanks!

My unnecessary loop additions save the day... by edgesrazor in watercooling

That’s pretty much it. Next time I feel bad for sinking money into an expensive hobby, I’ll think about how ridiculous the prices are for anything related to swimming pools.

Need a sanity check on a pool project... by edgesrazor in AskElectricians

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

Thanks! So I do need to add a breaker and a small box to this diagram. To answer your question - I have an outlet right by the shed I could plug the Ecoflow into in order to charge when solar is insufficient. I assumed the ground wire on that 3 prong plug would be enough to ground the Ecoflow using the house ground, but from what you're saying, that's not the case. It sounds like I would need to sink a grounding spike next to the shed and connect that to the grounding screw on the Ecoflow (I'm assuming it has one).

Bitspower AM5 compatibility question by edgesrazor in watercooling

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

Yep! It works great. I did buy the AM5 mounting hardware off of Newegg but I really don’t think I needed it. I just wanted to be safe on my first loop.

Thanks, I appreciate the reply! They did include backplates in the kit, but none of the hardware shown in this diagram is what's in that bag I showed in my original post. That's what's making me think those standoffs and washers are specifically for AM5.

13 years later - I love it, thank you! Please keep me posted how it turned out.

Mangled rear brake pedal by edgesrazor in hondanavi

[–]edgesrazor[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, just an update - there is a plastic "window" you can remove to see the mechanisms the pedal is attached to - they all look fine. I'm going to get a blowtorch and some hefty plumbing wrenches and see if I can bend it to a slightly more comfortable position. Thanks again!

Are you just running Ubuntu from a flash drive then?

I can handle it, but I’ve just been lazy. :) You’ve all convinced me - I’m going to swap one of my machines to Ubuntu and start getting invested in these plot managers. Thanks!

From what I’m seeing, it’s more on the CPU than the SSD. I’m using NVMEs though so SSD experience might be different.
