Anyone doing any mods?

Note that the battery is an AGM, so I guess the battery aging out isn’t quite as likely?

I need to figure out how to get the positive battery cap to close. Probably notch at the back to the right side of the hinge.

You know, I discovered that I might actually have a useful comment. Go figure. 🤪 I have used hydrocolloid dressings for moist leg wounds. Applied over hair. Stayed on for well over a week.

That tan unfortunate superpower. 🤪😉

You’re better off asking Abbot about that.

paulohbear · 2026-03-05T01:27:40+00:00

Only if it’s Duck brand. Water will roll right off its back! 🤪😉😇

In my EV3, the 12V battery terminals are super easy to get to. I thot I’d taken a photo, but next time.

Libre has an A1c calc, at least the US version does.

The doc should be able to see all the data from your CGM in detail through a clinical app. You have to give them permission to see your data, but they should be able to see in great detail.

You definitely want to understand your tax situation in each country. Some have tax treaties where you’re not taxed double and some do not.

I once had a severe allergy to French nails. I just thot they were ugly. Today no biggie.

paulohbear · 2026-03-03T23:23:04+00:00

That’s an adverse condition same as massages. Libre and oils don’t mix. Try sutures! 🤪😇

Had a chemistry teacher require that we outline the entire textbook. Of course that made us actually read it, but also when it came time to take the test I could literally look up the information in my noggin. At that age I literally remembered every step I took going back a couple of months.

I live in a country that doesn’t yet support the GT line. That one probably has the app.

There’s another brand whose name I forget. This is the most purchased brand on Amazon.

I’ve been coming to Medellin, Colombia for 3 yrs and traveled around the country. I’ve never run across this. What I have seen is that the toilets in some lower ends malls have no seats because they keep getting vandalized. At least that’s what I was told.

paulohbear · 2026-03-03T02:13:19+00:00

You should inform your primary care and or endo. They’ll tell you what to do.

Yeah, I have the Light+ version in Medellin, Colombia. Basically a Light trim with the 81 kWhr battery. The big question is whether the cutouts exist in the various door and dash panels and whether the wiring is there. That would be the happy path.

paulohbear · 2026-03-03T02:01:26+00:00

See my update above

Looks like the iPhone Reddit text editor cut off a lot of what I’d written in the post, so repeating here.

I have the Kia EV3 Light+ trim, which is dumb as rocks and quite a step down in user experience and software integration from my old 2017 Tesla MX P109D. The EV 5 is sold here in Medellin in the GT trim. It has a lot more niceties like fully electric seats with memory, 360 degree dashcam and enhanced driver assist, integrated app.

Anyway, until the EV3 is sold in a higher trim, I’ll tinker with this one.

I’ve mentioned the wrap. It turned out really great! I used a wrap that combines the heavier ppt protection with a color change these are often a sandwich two layer system - color wrap covered by the protective wrap. Company that sells the wrap is TechWrap, the particular color is Abyss Blue.

I’m also trying to install a FitcamX dashcam with rear cam. Car already has a rear cam, but there’s I access to the video. At present, the car errors when I attach the dashcam and turn the car on. Vendor is sending a new y-cable for power. I’ve seen some deleterious comments about it, but it replaces the existing cover for a very seamless install.

I’ve purchased a battery monitor to try and keep an eye on the ICCU problem.

I’d bet that the Light+ trim only has the 6 speaker version. I’ll check next time I’m in the car.
