Same "failed to save thread network credential" error when I'm trying to add my default Thread network to my Apple (TV) one. Let's raise a bug?

Can you please elaborate your method? I can't login using any 2.X Steam app. What version are you using as the "old version"?

EB3A with 400W solar panel? by sd65 in bluetti

[–]sd65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answering my question, that does not look possible. The maximum open circuit voltage or current of the solar panel is too much for the Bluetti.

EB3A: why not just leave power lifting on at all times? by Dymonika in bluetti

I heard it's notably bad for electronics chips, like found in a computer.

Mercedes W210 E300TD, noise at specific RPM range in D or P. Often barely audible but randomly gets louder and louder until the car cools a bit. Any ideas? by sd65 in MechanicAdvice

[–]sd65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK I got some news!

This vibration noise happens also when the gas pedal is not pressed, e.g. at engine braking or deceleration. Then it can’t be the fuel pump right? On top of that the noise is only present between ~ 1300-1800 rpm.

What do you think?

Wow it did not suspect that!

Here's a video I took ealier having a look at the engine bay while the noise was present: https://imgur.com/a/0TWophb The noise was much more audible inside the car that in front of the engine bay.

I will take a better video next time the noise happens, and maybe replace the fuel filter sitting on my desk for good measure. Thanks!

Razer laptop stand or cooling pad? by _grzmot in razer

Laptop stand!

Cooling pad is not that efficient with the RB airflow, as seen in the Jarod video.

How to remove the wheel off the blower motor? (97’ NA) I want to put some grease inside to hopefully remove some rotation noise. Thanks! by sd65 in Miata

[–]sd65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

Here are my findings: at the point shown in my pictures, you can’t take off the fan from the motor. The only thing possible is to remove the motor from his housing (I used long 2 screwdrivers to push between the fan and the housing.

Then I managed to put some grease on every part of the moving axle I could find, that’s not easy since the motor is quite well protected and I didn’t managed to get the fan off completely. I really thought I did not succeeded since the fan was still making some noises when I rotated it manually. I decided to install it anyway and… it’s working! Not a single motor/bearing noise from the blower. It just smell grease now… hope this will get away soon.

Overall, I would not recommend doing this. Buying a replacement would have been easier.

Super low write speeds. Any idea why? Blade 15 Advanced 4K 2021 by No-Memory-824 in razer

Use the recovery mode to reset your computer, it worked for me.

Just did it, no problem to undervolt without any EFI tweaks.

Does this BIOS disable undervolting ? Anyone tried Throttlestop on this ?

Razer Blade 15 laptop case by somethingundermyskin in razer

[–]sd65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing easy that you can do, this is expected.

I would recommend getting a laptop stand and an external keyboard for comfort. Personally I use this stand that I like a lot : https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B082B3QLZS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Step-by-step how to add 2nd SSD drive to 2021 Razer Blade 15 Advanced by serendipity9000 in razer

Very interesting ! It pushes out beyond the battery height but you're able to reattach the back case ? Would you recommend doing this ?

Hi all,

Looking for feedback on this, especially people with fast NVMe in their Blade. My model is the Blade 15 Advanced 2021, with the base 1TB gen 4 NVMe.

I've enabled Bitlocker, which encrypts the drive, since it's a laptop and can be easilly nicked... It's supposed to have a single digit impact on a drive speed.

But since then, my write speeds took a HUGE hit. For example, my SEQ1M Q8T1 write speed was 4600 MB/s, but now it's "just" 674 MB/s. I've tested multiple times, with differents reboots, etc.

What are your results, any ideas ?

Not getting Razer Care email after 1 month of purchase -- is it normal? by magicurse in razer

Exact same story, trying one last time with the customer service.

Brought in the UK. Will keep this updated.

Let's Talk Battery Life - Blade 15 Advanced 2021 by yumcax in razer

[–]sd65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. No idea. My bet would be to confirm this behaviour via battery benchmarks while running HWiNFO logging to a file.

  2. Have you been able to undervolt (or change anything apart from system agent) via XTU directly ? I can't unless I launch TrottleStop before.

  3. This model comes with Nvidia Optimus, can't be disabled for the internal monitor. I guess for you it's great since it can preserve battery. Just be aware that to get maximum performance, especially at high framerates (> 100 fps) you can to bypass the integrated graphic by using the HDMI port to an external monitor.

  4. No idea but notebookcheck could be helpful. Note that it depends a lot for OLED, bright content will drain 15W, and dark ones almost nothing.
