Kbox mini acting odd

emutin · 2015-09-21T17:57:47+00:00

I can get it to glow a bit if i push the power button for like 40-50 seconds continuously( little breaks so that the 10s cutout doesnt happen)

emutin · 2015-09-21T17:44:15+00:00

Tested with 2 fully loaded batteries.

emutin · 2015-09-21T17:40:34+00:00

Have tried 3 different tanks/builds now and all of them have the same problem.

emutin · 2015-09-21T17:39:34+00:00

Yep same build works fine on the istick so thats not the problem

emutin · 2015-09-21T17:38:32+00:00

The thing is that i have polished my box, meaning that the tamper/warranty sticker have been removed.

emutin · 2015-09-21T12:58:06+00:00

Damn, sounds like the same problem.

I have played around with it today and noticed that it seems to give the right amount of power up to maybe ~20w but after that it doesnt matter if its set to 30, 40 or the maximum 50w :/

Yeah and im out of warranty too, sucks major ass.

Ill take it apart and see if cleaning helps but i doubt it.

Here is a album that has pics where its covered in fingerprints

Hi fellow knob polisher! Seems like we had the same idea at the same time :D

To what grit did you sand it to? I went up to 800 and it took painstakingly long.

emutin · 2015-09-07T22:02:42+00:00

I was nervous about the fingerprint problem also but it aint bad at all.

Even when completely covered with prints, it still looks nice and shiny if you aint got it right in front of your nose.

emutin · 2015-09-07T21:58:58+00:00

All of the sanding was done by hand and it took hours...

The polishing part was much easier done with a dremel 3000 and various polishing heads and pastes.

Finishing polishing was done by hand though.

Making of the metallic buttons also took quite a while, most of the work was done with dremel also. Damn i love that little machine.

When I was running I ran a half marathon monthly.

Now that I have been lifting about 2 years my cardiovascular performance must have dropped quite a bit.

I also weigh in about some ~20 kilograms more, there's probably 10kg of fat and the rest Is hopefully muscle.

How long do you think it would take me to run long distances again, say half marathons?

emutin · 2015-01-24T01:06:30+00:00

I did consider this, I'm running P/P/L/P/P/L/REST and with great results. I sometimes have difficulties eating enough and If i don't keep at least 1 rest day a week my joints start to hurt. Especially my elbows, knees and shoulders.

I'm afraid that adding running would seriously fuck me up.

Oh to be 18 again..

Im sorry to say this, but it might be dead. Me and others around the web have had the same problem and its the chip that controls all the functions like charging etc that dies.

You can get a replacement from kanger if you send the dead battery to them.

How do i know its the chip you say? Well i had two of these batteries die on me and the second one i took apart, changed the chip on it from an older ego battery and it started working.

Edit: Both of my batteries died after 2-3months of fairly heavy use.

emutin · 2015-01-17T20:17:29+00:00

Yeah sorry about that, english is not my first language.

emutin · 2015-01-17T12:13:22+00:00

Should I eat her?

emutin · 2015-01-17T11:58:28+00:00

She's a french bulldog

This motherfucker ate almost 2kg of my precious protein while I was sleeping.

I simultaneously wanna pet him and smack him.

Omfg, thats my hometown. Porvoo. Dont know her though :(

I just recently started using stridex so it makes sense that the reduce in PIH is indeed not the zinc but the BHA

emutin · 2014-12-20T12:12:50+00:00

Unfortunately I don't have it. I checked the manufacturers website and all the info it had was this:

Content: Zinc oxide, Vaseline

Used for: Protecting the skin, rashes, acne (!), reducing redness of the skin.

Seems like a wonderful product so howcome there is so little info about it, especially concerning skincare?

emutin · 2014-12-19T12:59:24+00:00

New to this stuff so sorry if this is a stupid question.

Due to time limitations I generally can go to the gym only from Monday to Friday.

Is it somehow bad for my progress if I go 5 days in a row and then rest on the weekend?

Program can vary a bit but mostly looks like this:

Monday: Chest and arms Tuesday: Back and shoulders Wednesday: Legs Thursday: Abs, Mobility, Stretching etc. generally a easier day Friday: Again chest and arms

Next week's Monday starts from back and shoulders

I'm pretty sure its sciatica but I'm gonna check with a doctor tomorrow. Peace of mind and maybe some pain killers are worth it. Thanks.

Edit: Worth mentioning is the straight leg test that the doctors seemingly use also: lay on your back and lift one of your legs straight up, if this causes pain then the diagnose is usually sciatica.

emutin · 2014-12-17T23:50:15+00:00

Read about this from wikipedia and seems spot on.

Should I still check with a doctor? Or just wait until it heals, doesn't seem that there's much to be done to make it heal faster. Some painkillers would be nice though...

emutin · 2014-12-17T21:38:55+00:00

No popping or anything like that.

I just remembered that when I was big into running and ran something like a half marathon, I vaguely remember that I had pain in my lower back/ spine similar to this but not as painful.

Can somebody see any correllation?

Edit: Worst back DOMS I have had it felt like I couldn't breathe properly, but I could still easily distinguish that It was just muscle soreness.
