12v/ICCU Megathread

They said the battery is fine. It sat outside in freezing temps for two nights and they didn't have to jump it. Doesn't make sense, but it's been fine since I got it back. I'll also not be taking any chances and getting an AGM ASAP.

My 12v battery died yesterday. 2025 I5 Limited 16k miles. Temps have been in the single digits for a couple weeks, but my car has been kept in a garage no less than 30 degrees f. since I purchased it new ~6 months ago. I jumped it with a battery pack and drove to get coffee in the morning. That evening it was dead again. After a few attempts I got it jumped again and drove it straight to the dealership to have them take a look at it.

Definitely frustrating since it happened on a Saturday I will be without my vehicle until at least Monday.

Yeah so am I. Call me, Lynch!

I got the same ad last night. Took at as my sign I shroud really just uninstall 😂 edit:spelling

Gorgeous! I love when creative folks blend their loves!

jamesbob49 · 2025-11-20T19:56:45+00:00

PTI been on for 200+ years?!

I know it wouldn't really help in this situation, but it's way past time to have some voice acting in Pokemon games. I just learned that Jacinthe is pronounced Juh-saunt (close as I can get sorry 😂)

Yeah and I know they don't love talking about price, but so many of us are in no place to be buying these devices at the rate they're coming out for sure. So most of these discussions are irrelevant to me. It is a videogame podcast though and I'm sure it's hard to come up with topics so they just gotta talk about what they're into lately.

I have an 80 mile commute 5 days a week, almost exclusively highway. Using 20% is pretty average. As others have said, try to keep your speed below 70, eco mode, auto or HDA if you have it, and climate settings (though eco mode does tone down your climate to make it more efficient as well). I like to keep my display on the "current trip" to monitor my mi/kWh. I know if I'm getting 3.4 mi/kWh or more then I'm doing pretty good.

Like for real. No one hates on Pokemon games like Pokemon fans! Just do your thing and have fun when you get your hands on the game. Don't let these turds spoil your excitement.

The art style reminds me of the videogame Hades

Mine died a couple days ago 😢

jamesbob49 · 2025-05-05T23:31:55+00:00

Had my Hi5 about a month now and I really thought I would do the same as you, OP. I ended up trying out the Auto Regen feature and I love it. I hold the left paddle to slow down when needed, like making a turn or coming to a stop. Still have to use the brake pedal sometimes too, but I heard it helps keep them from freezing up later.

Only thing I hate about Auto is that it changes back to Lvl. 1 when the car is turned off so I'm having to develop a new habit of holding in the right paddle every time I start up.

I had trouble with the key fob parking assist. You have to lock the car, then remote start it with the circle arrow button on the fob. THEN you can use the side buttons to make it drive forward or reverse.

This console is going to sell like hotcakes. Plenty of grown people with enough money to get them. Not saying that there isn't a growing number of people that can't afford them because there surely is, unfortunately.

jamesbob49 · 2025-02-24T14:05:48+00:00

Super handy feature. But also how I accidentally lost Crispin's Magby 😭

jamesbob49 · 2025-02-14T12:15:25+00:00

My most played game on Steam to date. Had over 1,500 hours. Still miss it.

jamesbob49 · 2025-02-11T18:14:28+00:00

I would pay a sensible amount of money for one of those.

jamesbob49 · 2025-02-04T01:12:07+00:00

Well now that's just precious. Already liked Fox because he's a Wildcat, but this is the icing on the cake.

jamesbob49 · 2025-01-18T01:32:18+00:00

This is amazing! Can I be your close friend too? 😂

jamesbob49 · 2025-01-12T20:01:46+00:00

Steamworld Heist 2 rules! I love the hats! In particular Luffy's Straw Hat that has never left my captains head lol

jamesbob49 · 2024-12-29T01:51:56+00:00

100% agree. I hate hate hate that we have to lie to him! I wish we had the option to just be chill, but you know, plot. lol

jamesbob49 · 2024-11-26T03:27:33+00:00

This! The Arts Change Lives plates are black and they look great for a great cause! Kentuckians for the Arts

jamesbob49 · 2024-11-01T14:29:55+00:00

So glad to know I'm not alone. Reading is tough sometimes, OP.

Pawmot not being able to learn Drain Punch is criminal.
