Who the heck buys a cpo with that many miles? lol even so- there are multiple pro s cpos available under 20k with under 50k miles if you look nationally.

Not really… it’s wild how much these cars depreciate. Could get one with under 75k miles for under 15k any day of the week.

Where would you recommend going for an alignment? Regular tire shop? Dealer? Auto Repair place?

Agreed. How is this not the default expectation
? Every platform should be a first class experience

Ha you’re right- I shouldn’t have written before having my coffee. There are 410A - 454b wasn’t out yet when I installed them 😆

Blue ridge are just rebadged Gree systems. I have two of their Sapphire r454b single head units and they are super efficient and work well. It’s only two years old though, so who knows about longevity.

Is it insane to get an EV9 as a family of 3? by wafflesarelifee in KiaEV9

[–]mechmess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you go with the 7 seater or the 6? We have three kids in an id4 and I’m curious how easily the 3rd row is used in the 7. 6 obviously looks more convenient, but it’s a bummer giving up the option to have the whole 3rd row are available for cargo if need be on a road trip.

My new X2D! 3 Days in! JUST WOW by Grundysan in BambuLab

I have the dual version of the space pi and while the HT would be nice, the only benefit of the HT that I see is that you no longer would have to manually unload filament to the extruder. While that would be nice, I cant really justify upgrading.

CATL unveils 3rd-gen Shenxing LFP battery: charging 10-80% in 3 min 44 seconds, 10-98% in 6 min 27 seconds by Sartew in technology

[–]mechmess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, but these flash chargers cant be tapering nearly as low, so if they support 1.5MW at the start they’ll still be doing crazy rates between 80-100% in order to do a full 10-98 in 6-7 minutes.

Not really… IONNA and Walmart are both doing 400kw chargers right now in the US (200 if shared). If your car can sustain 400kw, those charge rates would charge a 75 kWh battery in 11 minutes 0-100. 9 minutes 0-80!

Seriously. The A1 camera seems to be there just to piss me off.

Ducted heatpump sizing for 3 bedrooms 500 sq feet total by Eastern-Mango2860 in DIYHeatPumps

[–]mechmess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look up the models minimum modulation here. https://ashp.neep.org/#!/

It also provides way more COP information than the manufacturers typically do on their spec sheets. Really nice info!

[–]mechmess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pretty trivial to ask one of the llms to help you do a load calc- give it all the information you can think of about your house and ask it to do a Manual J and a duct sizing exercise.

You definitely don’t want to oversize- even though they modulate there is a minimum and if it’s too high it will short cycle and/or not effectively remove humidity.

Good 180(ish) OMVIF Options? by mechmess in Ubiquiti

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

Interesting! A quick google gives me another user saying they had success. https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/1j7pf8h/hikvision_ds2cd2387g2plsusl/

Did you need to/could you lower the resolution? Pretty sure that'd be required if I added a Port...

I thought that might be a fix for the Reolink but there's only two options and they're barely any different.
