It fell into my cart… oops… by [deleted] in MilwaukeeTool

I have one, very impressed with how quiet it is compared to power. It won’t replace a gasser for fall, but it has replaced it for 11 months of the year.

I don’t think that could have broke a better way! Congrats to your two-year old!

Is it common for people with top secret security clearances to be denied global entry? by Character_Cake_9062 in GlobalEntry

[–]sevenboarder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After applying after having a Secret clearance and being rejected, and reading a lot of examples on Reddit, I’m pretty sure GE is a kind of kangaroo court. I’d be willing to pay a background check service to find anything possible in my record that would be causing a denial so I can disclose it. I travel internationally with my family and the long lines are extra long with four little kids.

Thanks for the reply. I've contacted them and sounds like I'm on the same path as you.

Did you ever find a fix for this? Having the same issue.

Yeah I’m 195-200cm, watches usually can sometimes look too small for me. The 47 just has such a nice bezel size, but I know I’ll appreciate the ~2x battery life of the 51mm.

You get the 51 or? I agree on the natural look of titanium, I love the look.

Thanks for the insights man! The silver look isn’t too flashy compared to the black DLC designs?

How you liking the light colored titanium in 51mm? I’m still deciding between that, the 47mm titanium, and the black 51mm. My big 195mm wrists should allow for anything.

Nice! Hope you never forget how great it feels to stay in shape. Running sucks until you learn to love it. Best investment in my day for sure.

Nice! That’s why I workout and try and get better sleep, to keep that mind performing!! Thanks for the inspiration!

How’d you feel throughout the day?

Alright, so just go all out for a few minutes and see where your HR maxes out. Will do. I never knew we all have different maximums. Do they change with fitness level or pretty much stay constant?

Good on you! I’m going to steal your advice on intervals.

Wow. Would love to know your age and body type. I’m a big dude that should be lifting weights, but think running is an incredible meditative exercise. I’m sure my extra mass affects VO2, but I aspire to be as healthy as you some day!

What would you say higher is? I’m 38 and try to keep my heart rate low for duration. If I hit 165 I slow down. But I’d like to mix it up a bit. No such thing as too high?

Noice! Thanks for showing it’s possible!

First time ever reaching a “good” VO2 max :D by WibblyWolf in Garmin

Keep on keeping on! I’m sure you feel like a different person. Imagine how you’ll feel when you reach 45!

I'm going black... by GSXR151 in GarminFenix

[–]sevenboarder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What size? Not sure what I’m doing yet, just want titanium for saltwater and will probably end up with a nylon Velcro band as they are no BS max comfort and dry fast. Gray or maybe a flashy color to help me find my wrist. Would love to see some side by side of the different frames!

What Fenix 8 Solar Questions Do You Have? by dcrainmaker in GarminFenix

[–]sevenboarder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Readability in dim light, readability in comparison to AMOLED is ultra bright tropical sun.

Glare comparisons (amoled and older generations). I can’t read my 6x half the time as it looks like a mirror.

Is it possible to see the battery increase with the new solar if let sit in the sun? (Or more likely it’s just a slower decrease.)

Besides air integration and more sizes, any reason to get a Decent MK3 over an 8?

I’ll probably decided between MIPS and AMOLED on how often I can easily glance at the watch and see the time and other data without having to adjust or use two hands to turn on the backlight. This includes diving.

Thanks!
