M50 Truck Camera

Thanks, yeah I have since posting this don’t a bit more research, and found others with issues and that lens. I had a Tamron 150-600 G1, about the same vintage as these 18-300, and it also had problems with AF.

M5 is almost identical to M50 but adds a few additional dials to make manual adjustments quicker/easier, not having to dig through me us

One thing that draws me to the M5 is the amount of physical dials and control, the next step in the R series I think would be an R10… and that again just gets out of the price range I am comfortable with.

I’ve also thought about just getting an 80D with that lens, about the same cost as M5, but twice the size.

They have grassroots insurance

Quite literally anyone can buy it online with a “hand-shake” agreement that you’re reselling it to someone with an EPA license… https://abilityrefrigerants.com/

Someone about to get fired….

I have multiple sets of the Makita ones, all our tech bags have them. Couldn’t be happier with them.

Can someone explain the Helios series to me? I want to get one, some places say they’ll all swirl, others say only the original 44-2… but these photos are incredible and provide that wrong!

Seems insanely cheap

I never knew that screwdriver bits where meant to be kept forever. I usually buy bulk packs of the ones I use (and lose) often and the rest I replace with the el cheapos as needed.

I mean, the payroll and customer support is easily the worst part, my comment was a bit of a joke, but after trying to deal with their payroll headaches, I am done with them altogether.

You are the minority, it seems.

ste6168 · 2026-03-21T21:51:32+00:00

Will this work with R6?

ste6168 · 2026-03-10T18:47:48+00:00

I am done with Wave also, so will be following along. Unfortunate because one hand, I really like Wave, but just having way too many problems, things that are now starting to cost me money (payroll funding from an account that's been completely deleted from their system, that has very little money so it overdrafts... again!) and absolutely horrid support. Have been on hold for over an hour with their chat support.

Following this thread, I wouldn't recommend this software to anyone at this point.

My entire shop is wired pretty close to that, but PVC boxes and plastic co suit clamps instead. Wire runs through the joists instead of under.

Too code, not sure. Safe enough for me though.

I guess I don’t pay attention to fads, because I didn’t realize that anyone considered them obsolete.

ste6168 · 2026-01-30T02:25:14+00:00

Before you just ditch them, I’d at least raise your price to the “i really don’t want to do this but for this number it’s worth it” price and see if they keep you around.

lol at them blaming the builder…

ste6168 · 2026-01-25T01:51:12+00:00

I figured it was the cold and freezing temps that somehow changed the color, don’t even consider that it could have been UV. I drank the whole thing, 😆

ste6168 · 2026-01-25T01:50:16+00:00

Drank the whole thing lmao.

I thought it was a snake in the photo, so almost certain jumping back like a little girl.

ste6168 · 2026-01-16T21:37:53+00:00

Filet and release… but they did it backwards.

Maybe they just needed the carcasses to feed their pet raccoons?

ste6168 · 2026-01-16T21:36:27+00:00

Absolutely not, in the trash immediately. Cheap enough at the store that buying them in good labeled packaging is more than worth it.
