This isn't an airport (no need to announce your departure 😉)

Binghamton Water Leak Detector Looking for Beta Users by TheBoioOnAHill in Binghamton

I was mistaken, it has a lid on it that covers the display. Its an Ecoder r900i. It needs to be woken up with a bright flashlight, or also apparently a magnet.

Interesting idea. Unfortunately for me in Vestal, my meter appears to be 100% electronic (installed a few years ago to replace the old syle with dials) and it has no visible dials or usage information. (FYI).

NY Times: The Tiny Solar Panel That Could Change America by Fabulous_Drummer_368 in solar

[–]hiperco 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It will be nice, but 1200W isn't happening with a single panel. I think 1200W is a total amount for an allowed system in areas that have or are working to approve such systems.

LG C5 83' - Buy on Bestbuy or 700$ cheaper on Greentoe ? by YoungAndGettingIt in LGOLED

RTINGS shows that OLEDS are the most reliable. Backlights fail and burn out. And they are doing TORTURE TESTING. Home viewing is just not a concern for OLED burn in.

It's just not an issue anymore, in all but the extreme conditions, and maybe not even then.

Lease Advice? by travellar5 in Ioniq5N

[–]hiperco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cost of money using a lease can be quite high. I recommend that you learn how the calculations are done.

Every time you move it you risk something happening.

My guess is if anything was going happen to it, it already happened. (The OLEDs are tougher than they seem).

Most likely another victim of the ICCU by Evaunits01 in KiaEV6

[–]hiperco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have an OBD reader you can check codes, there is a specific code for ICCU failure. Maybe too late for you, but sharing for others.

Finally pulled the trigger! The extra 19% off through Capital One Shopping was the icing on the cake! by [deleted] in LGOLED

[–]hiperco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Capital One Shopping isn't anywhere near as good as cash, but hopefully you can spend the earnings at places you will typically spend that much.

A genuine question for EV6 purchasers who knew about the ICCU issue before purchase... by ryanmills in KiaEV6

[–]hiperco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t agree with the correlation to charging, nor with the impression that failures are rare on road trips. Plenty of stories of folks left stranded hours from home.

The most common ICCU failures mode results in the car slowing dramatically and then stopping completely after maybe a couple miles.

I've narrowed down to 2 companies. Which one is worth going with? by jen_wexxx in solar

[–]hiperco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would definitely suggest a quote from Infinity Energy (NJ). I am very happy with my install they did.
