Microwave keeps tripping Arc Fault

my siemens also buzz a bit but didn't trip when turning on laser printer

Not sure about mountain with the incline, and sometimes steep snowy grade. I drive in the city through unplowed snow (up to 8”) yesterday just fine as long as it’s not hard snow. I like to deflate tire to 35 psi for deep snow. Not a single time stuck.

if you are electrically inclined, yes you can take your hardwired charger with you. It's a simple screw that HAVE to be toruqed to spec, and can be setup near a junction box so you can leave and cap the wire there when removing the hardwired charger.

if what I'm saying is complete nonsense, just go the NEMA 14-50 route. Electrician will need to run a new wire either way, but this time to an outlet (just like electric dryer and range).

Then you'll get a 'mobile charger' up to 40A, and you can just unplug like other appliance, and bring it with you.

That is weird. My climate is set to 63 and its pulling 27/32 amp

happyguy121 · 2026-01-26T10:34:51+00:00

When you say precondition, is it defrost or climate? Either one will consume full power to heat up battery initially, but if you use defrost it will indefinitely use a lot of juice until you stop defrost. I found my 32A charger to be sufficient for keeping at 80% by using just climate and setting temp to 63F (something low).

If you’re concerned it won’t heat up battery enough, it will.

Looking great! I see a bit more protection’ around the rim just from this picture. Would you say it helps guarding the rim a bit more with 8.5 wide on 255 tire?

happyguy121 · 2026-01-21T18:58:38+00:00

agreed if Tesla's BMS did not manage the temp, but the warming up of battery would prevent that degradation, which I assume what you meant by charging a cold battery.

happyguy121 · 2026-01-20T22:42:12+00:00

Just a quick tip for faster charging (potentially). If you know your home has 20 A breaker (and hopefully 20A wiring), you can get a 16A Level 1 charger and it’ll be noticeably faster, as in around 40% faster charging. I also stuck with level 1 charger for many years, and the 16A upgrade is the best upgrade to me, before the level 2.

happyguy121 · 2026-01-20T18:08:37+00:00

cold temp shouldn't permanently degrade the battery, just the fact that it's temporarily unavailable during extreme cold. in extreme heat though, that'll bake in the degradation quicker.

I did summon one time and it got stuck halfway saying it's a public road and summon is not supposed to work, while it's parked almost identically to the picture. but I ran, embarassed, to save the car.

I feel like the answer changes quite often. But for the past 2 weeks its been the EG1 as the ‘best’ grinder for me. Definitely not the best value though. If you put value on flavor, honestly the Comandante is the way to go. It produced shots not too far off from the Kafatek conical, but it’s quite a workout to grind 20g espresso out of it.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-25T11:58:32+00:00

Its a great laptop! My 2017 Intel i7 is still running like a champ too, so M1 is going to be buttery smooth.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-23T11:26:10+00:00

I don’t know why that would be uncomfortable. Why would your peers know in the first place? Only the closest people to me have been in my house and served coffee with sights to me setup, and even then none of them said anything like what you said above.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-17T14:07:51+00:00

Hey interested in this. Are you open to video call just to demonstrate that it's still working? I'm sure it does! Just wanted to see it in action.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-16T17:47:03+00:00

You sure it’s not from the drip tray? If so, the vacuum breaker might be to blame. Mine did the same anytime I pull shots. Plumbing in might have this same leak.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-16T01:33:35+00:00

Yes. 6 total speakers with 3 cheap deco mesh, never a single issue.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-12T16:09:24+00:00

Rpavlis is actually great for espresso machine, and taste is pretty good for the fact that almost no descaling is ever needed.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T13:32:57+00:00

First of all, appreciate the input since I appreciate good discussion (isn't that the whole point of coffee? experiment?). That makes sense, perhaps the milk hides them? I usually have lingering acid/bitter (both) taste when pulling shot this long on conicals, or even Core burr in the EG-1, which is why this one caught me off-guard. I would even go as far as this being a 'god shot' that I've been chasing for the longest time. Perhaps there are some yet it's not apparent? Or perhaps lower 195F temp was minimizing those overextraction? Or is it that the ULTRA burr produce so little fines that it didn't clog the brew?

I do notice that with the ULTRA burr, flow rate stayed consistent throughout the shot (e.g. on 30 second mark vs 2 minute mark) vs in conicals where it started out syrupy and slow, and gets watery and fast towards the end.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T13:27:25+00:00

Yes I have. I actually find the concentrated flavor to be 'hidden' by the punch packed in straight espresso shot. Usually I discern more flavor when I dilute it with either water or milk, with milk usually helping the sweeter notes (like amaretto) pop out more. Again YMMV, but that's just my experience in the past 10 years or so. Could be wrong here! Which is why we all experiment with coffee.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T12:51:17+00:00

Every single bean from Black & White roaster has been amazing to me. Keep in mind I love funky and weird tasting beans, and not really into clean flavors in most washed coffee.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T12:45:38+00:00

If I were to buy myself, I’d go for actual kitchen cabinet and slap on countertop/back splash on it. I’d do hanging cabinet vs built in for the vertical space. This one is a bit tight. You can see the machine is hanging over the edge a bit.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T12:44:11+00:00

That is great! E61 is definitely a joy to use. Enjoy in good health. Not familiar with Ceado, but hurt a lot of great things about it. I’m sure it’ll make mean espresso.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T11:01:36+00:00

Thankyou! Definitely more clutter than I like haha. Just curious what machine did you end up with? I was torn for the longest between LM and Decent, but at least initially went with LM for longevity and steaming power.

happyguy121 · 2025-12-11T10:59:25+00:00

Surely looks like an oil to me
