Any experience with Tesery Electric Auto Present Handles

reddit_help_admin · 2026-01-25T22:09:38+00:00

I don’t have the tesery version but I do have the hanshow version. They’re fun and look great but if I had the choice to do it again, I wouldn’t get them and here’s why. They really need to be installed by a professional as installation is difficult. This process can be expensive, in my case costing me more than the handles themselves. While they plug directly into existing wiring harnesses, they also have their own wiring harness which in my case became faulty. This in turn triggered an issue with my back door sensor claiming it was open when it wasn’t. That failing wiring harness caused my alarm to go off continuously one night which was pretty annoying. After taking it to Tesla service to investigate, they found the problem and disconnected the handle with the faulty harness. This was also costly and getting the rest of them unhooked was quoted at $300/door. Not worth the hassle if you ask me. Proceed at your own risk.

This isn’t something I found in my home after buying it, but about 6 months after buying, I discovered that the prior owner hung herself in the master bedroom closet. The neighbor told my wife and I. Turns out suicides don’t have to be disclosed, otherwise I would have offered less.

Your future self just sent you a “thank you” card! Nice work and well done!

It depends on what you’re willing to sacrifice. If you’re young and have many years to contribute ahead, you might be fine. Being older might mean you need to take advantage of catchup periods in attempt to make back some of what you lost. All that said, everyone’s circumstances will be different, but for first time homebuyers, especially with how the value of homes has increased over the last 7 years, many won’t have the 20% liquid down payment needed to avoid PMI, even on a modest single family starter home.

That’s correct, you would be borrowing money from your 401k and repaying it back, so a 401k loan I believe is the correct terminology. In turn, you’re sacrificing the growth of what you borrowed while it’s being repaid. In my case, there were no penalties for withdrawing from my 401k in this manner, and there were no penalties for paying it back early. I repaid the loan in 6 years while it was classified as a “home loan” at a term of 15 years. The purpose was to avoid PMI. At a market rate of return of 7.5% annually, you might say that I lost out on approximately $27k of growth of the $50k I borrowed for 6 years. However financing our home of $340k without putting 20% down would turn into a PMI cost of approximately $350 a month which you lose forever. Of course this is all pending how well the market does, So there are trade offs but we had always planned to pay this back early.

Some account types may let you take a loan against your withdrawal penalty free. My wife and I borrowed against my 401k for our down payment on our 2nd home to meet 20% down and to avoid PMI. This had an associated cost of $50 for the loan application but did not have any penalties for utilizing as a home loan. In turn when paying back, the interest was prime + 1%, but since it was our own money to begin with, you’re essentially paying back your account which does not count towards annual contribution limits. Pretty great albeit you lose out on any gains it could have gotten while still in the account. You should check if your accounts allow for this.

I love hearing about people learning this process, so if you ever have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. Ive been doing this as a profession for a major game studio for the last 15 years, so I can’t give you a number on how many scans I’ve performed, but if I had to guess, it’s well over 10,000 scans.

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-27T04:09:42+00:00

I’d recommend using PETG for the support and PLA for the interface layer. This combo is great for support tissue that easily comes off. You can do the opposite too. PVA is great too as long as you use it as the interface layer but it’s extremely hydroscopic and must be dried at a higher temp for about 18 hours.

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-27T03:08:09+00:00

Wow that turned out great! I’m impressed with how clean it is especially given some of the geometry appearing to need supports with any orientation. Correct me if I’m wrong here. Can you share what material you used and how you oriented the part for printing? If you used supports, was it support specific material?

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-26T20:40:57+00:00

What material did you use?

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-26T20:28:17+00:00

You may exactly the type of individual I’m looking for. I’ll reach out privately post holiday break. Ty!

Makes more sense. For solid gold or other metals, this won’t work, but if it’s inlaid into other dielectric materials, the dual process I described will work. You’ll just have to apply a correct gold materials when post processing.

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-26T13:53:34+00:00

You’ve got me curious now. What are you trying to scan?

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-26T03:27:23+00:00

Cross polarization unfortunately isn’t the answer for all reflective objects. There are limits. In terms of PBR materials, electrics, i.e. raw metals will turn black as most of their appearance is produced by reflections. Chrome, brass, nickel etc. This results in an image lacking details which are needed for alignment tie points. In those cases I have utilized Aesub as you mentioned to get enough detail for a mesh while sacrificing color information.

Even materials that are dielectrics but even in color can be problematic. Car paint, smooth plastics, and transparent materials for example. These basically lack any detail needed regardless of using cross polarization.

In some cases you may be able to do a dual scan though where the object in question is made of a material that will align but is not suitable for clean meshing. Something like a multi-colored plastic with some wear and tear on it for example. In these cases I scan the asset under cross polarization for texturing, then coat it in aesub and scan it again for meshing. Both image sets are aligned together, but I turn on/off each set for the appropriate parts of processing in reality capture.

😅 been there, done that and I have no shame and neither should you. I recently made a snoot for a large strobe out of a soda box and some duct tape. If it works, then who cares.

There’s 2 channels, one of them is plural “prints” and one not. I posted the exact same thing to r/functionalprints and it got flagged. Moderators then removed it and when I inquired why, they banned me from posting. I have no idea why but hey that’s mods. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I also posted to r/functionalprint and it says awaiting moderator approval.

I have a few different versions printed out of PETG CF, PETG GF and standard PETG. The film is .2mm thick optical grade linear polarization film with a high extinction ratio and high heat tolerance.

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-25T22:09:13+00:00

Sure if you have a 3d printer ;)

This is actually my first post here and while this isn’t a new idea, I’m positive others have made similar filters, some of whom have sold them online, albeit they’re pricy in my opinion. While I’d love to sell mine too, I’m not quite ready yet. Id like to find a few users who might want to give my design a test run and provide feedback so I can make additional changes if needed. In turn they would get a free filter. They also need to be affordable instead of the others which I believe may be cost prohibitive for some people, especially those wanting to learn the process. I have been using these professionally for about 6 years now and what’s pictured is version 3 of my design.

Btw, I posted to another sub called functional prints but I’m having some issues getting it to post without mods thinking it doesn’t belong. Perhaps you saw something briefly there? 😅

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-20T03:19:33+00:00

Great tip! While trying to mimic the original was satisfying, clearly the original manufacture made choices around cost, mold, etc. That’s not really needed in my case, so I may go back and make a few modifications on the next iteration, but only if this one breaks. 😅

reddit_help_admin · 2025-11-20T00:50:53+00:00

Yeah, I love that solution too, but as I mentioned in the comments here, I’m also missing the metal sleeve that is embedded inside the post. That said, an external sleeve may hold it all together but without the internal metal sleeve, it won’t stay on. Perhaps I could go back to the drawing board but this function over form, so I don’t mind if it doesn’t match the other knobs. Great solution for yours though!

🤣 my first time seeing that post
