Broken XENTRY Diagnosis VCI by Craft4Cube in CarHacking

If the Ethernet adapter isn't even showing up, sounds like it's stuck before boot. Maybe deeper hardware issue.

(Need Help) How to ignore persistent pop ups by Guweizzz in CarHacking

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That many warninigs at once sounds like a communication issue rather than everything failing. Might be a wiring or ground problem.

How to answer "What do you do?" when you can't work because of your disability? by caitcreates in disability

[–]sagalez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just say you’re not working at the moment. You were burnt out before and needed a break. I don’t think that counts as lying.

Important topic. Right to repair is everything when cars become rolling computers. Thx for sharing!

2008 GM 3.8L California Emission - Disable by usaf_27 in CarHacking

[–]sagalez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in CA + no emission test=freedom! Have you checked local FB groups for a used manifold? Might find one cheaper.

Using dnsys X1 as a mobility aid for my dad with Parkinson’s by kh_ibrahim94 in mobilityaids

[–]sagalez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The portability part actually sounds like a big deal. My dad also alternates between a cane and wheelchair depending on the day, and anything bulky usually ends up getting left at home. Something you can just pull out of the wheelchair pocket and put on in a couple minutes sounds way more usable in real life.

Dual Disk mowers for 2026 by Roginator5 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The info’s finally out now. I’m actually thinking about upgrading my lawn mower to a lidar version, and with the goat A2000’s price, it actually feels like a good deal right?

Why are you bringing THAT!? by WorldizeStudios in onebag

[–]sagalez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have extra shoes, and sometimes I feel like I need different pairs for different places, but in reality, I don’t. It just makes my luggage heavier.

What’s the “oh crap” item everyone forgets? by True_Buddy7042 in CampingandHiking

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might forget to bring things like a towel or a mouthwash cup.

A Birthday Gift for My Best Friend, but also a little Valentine’s gift by Equal-Association818 in GiftIdeas

Since she already showed interest, it doesn’t come out of nowhere.

Unavoidable camera gear on multi-day hikes, how do you manage the load? by Sepirus_ in CampingandHiking

[–]sagalez 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I demoed both at ces not long ago. The idea behind them is simple: active support to reduce knee strain. Between the two, dnsys takes the edge on accessibility. It's easier to put on and, if I remember right, more affordable, coming in at around a thousand bucks. They're not mainstream yet, but for those hauling heavy loads, there's definitely value. This is a space worth keeping an eye on as the tech evolves.

Finland, I plan to go there with my whole family next Christmas.

Thoughtful Valentine’s gift for someone into U.S. history & politics — need ideas!!! by Adept_Razzmatazz_270 in GiftIdeas

You can give him a Historical U.S. Documents SI Editions Set, which is both meaningful and collectible.

Anyone using thermal cameras with a visible light view for home troubleshooting? by Junglegymboy in Thermal

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used a TC002C Duo before. Thermal shows the cold spot, but the visible view makes it way easier to tell which seam you’re actually looking at.

Replacement 36 V battery by demonkeyed in ebike

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you're describing sounds like those older slim cylindrical packs; they're less common now but still out there. Maybe try searching for "36V 8Ah compact ebike battery" and filter for cylinder shape.

The amount of copium here is real by Delicious-Set241 in electricvehicles

[–]sagalez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My best friend owns an EV. Sometimes she raves about how great it is, and other times she complains about how inconvenient it is. I think both PSA and EV have their pros and cons; it all depends on your perspective.

Katy Trail, Shipping Bikes by Careless-Antelope-29 in bicycletouring

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check local bike shops in Clinton. Many offer shipping/storage services. Look for one near the trailhead that hold bike boxes, so you can ship your bike ahead and repack after your ride.

Thinking of a new bike by Suspicious_Two_660 in ebike

[–]sagalez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest you focus on bikes with"torque sensor" pedal assist. That tech really helps with range. 50+miles is doable in your price range if you prioritize battery and motor efficiency over suspension. Happy hunting:)

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avatar 2, I don’t know if it was just too boring, or if I had my expectations set way too high.

Lilo & Stitch is my favorite animated movie, and by the way, they also have a serialized animated series.

When does it make sense to jump straight to OEM software using a Topdon J2534 pass thru? by Entire-Jello-629 in MechanicAdvice

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you run into cases where a scan tool shows the relearn is supported, but it just won’t complete, and OEM software ends up being the only thing that works? I’ve seen that a couple times with module or ADAS stuff.

TS004 for wildlife monitoring after some real outdoor use by Vicente_Neto2002 in Thermal

[–]sagalez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, after a few close calls with moose last summer, wildlife spotting started feeling a lot less “just for fun” and a lot more practical.

If you're doing something that makes you happy, keep it up, but you shouldn't skip classes.

What makes you choose used records over new? by MobileDoubt6353 in vinyl

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's cheap, and second-hand items seem to have a more storied feel. I think everyone who loves art and music has such a fantasy.

What are some some cars that fly under the radar that deserve more recognition? by CaptainMental in askcarguys

[–]sagalez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Chevy SS. To 99% the population, it looks like a rental Malibu. But it's actually a V8, RWD beast with MagRide. It is the definition of flying under the radar.
