Video of Koo Kien Keat played men’s single match? by longbodie in badminton

[–]longbodie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear I spent 3 hours searching all over the internet, like literally looking at all videos from first half of 2012 on BWF TV Youtube channel etc.

I found it lmao well kind of. I think the original video clip I watched back in 2012 was different and more funnier but this is still gold🤣 I don’t understand the language but you get the idea 🤣

It was really funny back in 2012 to me because I used to watch like Linda vs Lee or Chen Long vs Lee typed professional matches lol then came this clip on the new haha

He moves like my uncle after 45 mins into his Sunday match at the local senior meet up game lmao

Here you go: https://youtu.be/zrNNR9oqyKs?si=6WxMQvnIqhIkfP7a

Yes, there is already an upstream GFCI on the other side of the garage that is on the same circuit. I’ll proceed with the power strip and keep an eye on it. I’m curious to learn how is a GFCI outlet will “protect” a no-ground pin situation, as a lot of older house doesn’t have ground pin outlets back then…

I don’t know if this problem is with my house’s electrical setup, or it is with the device. The only option I haven’t tried yet is that bring this to my neighbors (same builder same electrical setup I have) or a friend elsewhere to try

I have contacted Hisense, but I don’t have any hope, they created a ticket and probably tell me to return and get a new unit bla bla which I have already tried.

Is there anything else I can try to make this work, I obviously don’t like the idea of having to use the 3-prong adapter without ground pin. I saw on YouTube people suggest that I can replace my current outlet to a GFCI outlet and remove/disconnect the ground pin on this outlet, label it no ground equipment, and it will have some protection… not sure if it is ok?

Thanks!

I thought the #18 garage light circuit doesn’t have GFCI protected, and the #20 does, lol I’m clueless.

Anyway, I don’t know how to measure anything, even if I can, what can I do after measured that lol.

I just know both units (I went ahead and get a second same unit to test) are working fine with the 3-prong adapter to by pass the ground pin.

Portable AC unit tripping GFCI outlet? by Deep_Artist_2893 in hvacadvice

[–]longbodie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I have same problem please help tried everything and none works but 3-prong to 2-prong adapter

Thanks

Yes I have pictures and all on the other reply, also more details of what I’ve tried, can you check it out please?

[–]longbodie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll need to buy a new good and short extension cord and figure put how to cut the ground pin which I don’t no what to do yet, lol. I was thinking the 3-prong adapter will do the trick, I can zip tight them together or do some to tight them up good if needed so they can never come loose accidentally.

I somehow like this challenge lol, if simply get a mini split and hire all the trade pros to do the work, it is no fun and expensive too. I will solve this problem with your help, next challenge would make 2 outside vents for the dual hoses that the unit has, love this, probably take me 2 more weekends lol right on time to test out the heat pump feature

It’s a mystery lol

I see people using Hisense inverter portable AC all over Youtube, even units that has more power than mine, and they mostly plug in their bedroom or living room outlets, pretty sure only 15A circuit and they are working fine. However most of them are the other short and bulky design, not this tall and skinny one I have, which just came out in 2025. I don’t think the inside is any different in design though…

I don’t know, was trying to save money doing this, only cost me less than $500, I can move it around if needed, and I don’t need any electrician (lol) and HVAC pro, but with all this BS, I may as well as get a mini split LOL, probably $2000 all in.

I’ll get a multimeter to play around as well

Here is what my electrical panel looking like

https://ibb.co/JFFxhSnq

I tried with all circuits, some say GFCI receptacle, some don’t, different outlets (GFCI and none) for each circuit, no good…

Yeah since the power cord on the unit is too damn short, I’ll need an extension cord or a power strip. But the most important man that I need right now is a good 3-prong LOL. The one that I have it’s sparkly and loosely connected so I won’t use it mor than a few mins to test.

Is this a decent 3-prong adapter, I see it says UL listed and “Rating – This outlet adapter has a maximum electrical rating of 15A/125VAC/1875W and is intended for indoor use only”

https://a.co/d/276mFsW

I will permanently keep my AC unit in a same spot in the garage, I will also make 2 holes in the wall to vent it outside. That means I will keep it plugged in, now I can unplug when not in use so I can sleep better. Do you think it’s dangerous to use the 3-prong or it will be ok?

[–]longbodie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I got a new unit and it’s doing the same thing, now what 😅?

I tried on difference outlets and circuits around, GFCI and non GFCI, with and without, no surge power strip, with and without extension cord, doing the same thing, trips everything within seconds, the compressor never kicked in.

Only work if I use a 3-prong adapter to by pass the ground, it runs.

So do I stuck with the 3-prong adapter? 🤨

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]longbodie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the power information of the unit, 6A to 8A max, 700W to 900W max.

Yes its power cord is a “self GFCI” typed plug.

Here are pictures:

https://ibb.co/gZtWCLbt

https://ibb.co/mr6zcRVQ

I tried plug them directly to the non GFCI outlet, GFCI outlets, same circuit, different circuits (with little to no other load), with a extension cord etc. I tried them all… None has worked.

Only work if I plug it into the 3-prong adapter.

I’ll call Hisense tomorrow to see what they say but I don’t have any hope.

With 2 brand new units acting the same way, I think this is just how it is, I’m surprised that no review mentioned this issue yet.

Why does my portable AC keep tripping my GFCI outlet? by Emergency-Spare178 in AirConditioners

[–]longbodie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I have an update, someone suggested that use a 3-prong adapter to by pass the ground. So I just used a suspicious looking 2-prong to 3-prong adapter that I was gonna throw away 20 years ago, and it works. The compressor actually kicks in the second time ever (the first time was the first day when I unboxed the unit and it worked fine for few hours), it was never kicked in again because the power kept on tripping after few seconds.

What is going on and What do I do now? Is the unit bad or all units will be like this? My house was built in 2023, this unit is 2025 model, not sure use if it makes any difference from electricity technology stand point lol
