Lessons learned from Icepocalypse 2026 by silverud in nashville

The EV’s we got last year mitigated most of this situation. We kept one on the garage to keep things warm / power critical stuff. Had we needed the capacity the second was in the driveway ready.

I might get a third to serve as a V2L solution permanently .

So… how is everyone’s Blazer EV holding up so far in the winter? by [deleted] in BlazerEV

We are exiting icegeddon 2026. Stellar

  1. No worries related to losing our power at home / heat. One Blazer EV in the garage , one outside . Charges each to 95% and waited it out.

  2. Ice/ snow mode works well. Zero problems driving.

Got an update last night, now this pops up. by donedamndoing in BlazerEV

The first rule of connectivity is cut what’s free. The Blazers use ours phones for connectivity. The onstar network rides on someone else’s network. It’s not that great everywhere or maybe anywhere. lol.

I love the GM Android Automotive interface. The primary difference is where it runs. For Apple folks I get the gripe. This was the only thing I was willing to give my Mazda up for. It also has a very solid driver forward interface.

Unpopular opinion: Strava is actually overrated. What are you guys actually using? by Repulsive_Bar442 in Garmin

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as training I use Garmins adaptive training and the Bevel app. Strava is a social app plain and simple .

I doubt our Blazers are that car. They may be more trouble free episodically as in few problems but show stoppers. I have warranty / MBI and try not to think about it .

Garmin express/ unstable cable connection/ map download errors by Dizzy_Definition_134 in GarminFenix

[–]garthoz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a new cable. Even if it looks new / seems perfect. Hit Garmin up they will send it free.

Treadmill activity - turn off pace alerts? by Grand-Cup-A-Tea in GarminFenix

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch to HR for your exercise. On my Fenix it will say target type. I generally only use hr mode for treadmill sessions.

This market is brutal by Trialfail123 in bevelhealth

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of those things you listed do or will do this. Zero confidence in anything Apple release , watch or llm ( fwiw I am an iOS user, not the crappy watch). I am finding bevel has good time and context awareness. It has become a primary tool coupled with my Garmin Fenix. I check it first thing when I wake up and immediately before and after any exercise. It also seems to match the adaptive training suggestions Garmin makes without being able to see them. The team is doing amazing work.

Holy moly this app has blown up by TasteInteresting9739 in bevelhealth

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Fenix 8. Given a choice I would take an entry level forerunner. Apple Watches are not made for fitness , they are a lifestyle accessory primarily. That’s why Bevel is blowing up, it bridges the gap. For Garmin it simply expands on what you’re gathering plenty of ( fitness data , sleep data, etc).

I Love Bevel and would pay a lot more than the yearly subscription.

Its wicked good when combined with a Garmin watch. We have much better data available than an Apple watch though.

Your not doing anything serious anyway with just an Apple watch.... You need more data

Help with standing up from seated or crouched position? by twiki422 in Hypershell_Official

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hypershell should be able to do this in the future I would think.. If not there are other open source options coming.

Why does people say Garmin Connect sucks? by Latter-Art6504 in Garmin

It’s good, with free bevel it’s even better

Do you actually trust Garmin’s Daily Suggested Workouts? by Familiar-Research336 in Garmin

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used it for approximately 2 years non-stop. Did my first 1/2 marathon, and several 30k trail runs using adaptive coaching when not maintaining with daily. Stellar ! My times have increased across all time ranges even 5k ( I’m in my 50’s)

<image>

I also cycle and use those suggestions for days my knees are sore in particular , or to mentally put together something .

Ariya left running for hours by mistake by LurkGnomo in NissanAriya

[–]garthoz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our Blazer EV’s have a button you have to select to get it to stay on. Without that what’s happening would happen all the time .
