    Weather Station ideas?

    I’ve used 3 or 4 brands. Only seem to last 2 years max. Lacrosse has been the most reliable and easiest to set up to view remotely.

    12v/Truck Fridge and Freezer

    I have a Bougerv brand unit. 12v and 120v plugs come with it. Optional battery but I use a 1200whr power station. It runs a couple days on the power station without any issue. You could get a 48qt and the power station for roughly $600 total. Jupitek power station comes with a 120w solar...

    Wireless Ethernet 'Bridge' - anyone with experiences?

    I used a ULNA brand off amazon. Not going quite that distance, but closer to .5 mile. Worked great. Instructions are a little crappy so I used instructions from other reviews. Not sure what kind of speed you need or expect though. Probably won't be great.

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    Thanks for the update. This was the first thread that got me a little worried about cutting back.

    Epoxy painting garage floor

    Don't extend out if it's real epoxy as the sun will turn it yellow. Or if that doesn't bother you then it's fine. A poly product shouldn't yellow though.

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    You are losing the conversion twice through an inverter also. 12v machine to 110 inverter on the plug. Then back to 12v with the Car battery inverter. See if the unit is 12v and if the manufacturer makes a 12v direct plug. Usually $34-50.

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    The wattage varies during use. So the average should be lower. Pretty much any CPAP works fine. The energy use will be higher with higher pressures, humidifier, and converting 12v to 120v. That same CPAP might only use 25-30w/hr.

    Whole house Water Softener Systems

    I didn't have issues with showering in hard water, until I got used to soft water. Now I can't go back! I really haven't seen hard evidence on the water conditioners (salt free) actually working. I guess the main bonus would be making your appliances last longer and no buildup on sinks...

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    Most CPAP are 12v with a inverter on the plug for 110v. You should be able to get a 12v cord for your specific unit to avoid any extra loss. Cheapest $ per watt hour I have come across is the Jupitek s1200. $300 for 1250watt hours (might get a solar panel for free also when purchasing)...

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    Did you try without the brake? Or with a suppressor? Thanks for the info on the fluting. I honestly don’t care about the looks, just don’t want any more length than I have to.

    Tikka T3X Superlite Muzzle Break and Suppressors

    Has anybody cut back past the factory fluting? Or should I stop just before? This is a 7mm mag. I would like to drop it to 18”…I don’t really want to swap barrels on this gun.

    Diesel heater for wall tent?

    Some people buy a cheap hose extension off Amazon and it gives off a smell. If it’s running correctly no smell after a break in period.

    Diesel heater for wall tent?

    If you put the heater outside, the only noise you would hear is the fan moving the air and possibly some clicking from the pump. You can make the pump nearly silent with some work. Those 2000w generators are quiet but not this quiet

    Desperately need help (corn tortillas)

    At one point Costco had both uncooked flour and uncooked corn tortillas. They still have the flour ones here. Sprouts may carry the corn ones. Much better than precooked and warmed.

    Swarovski now has AI incorporated in an optic

    I hope the next gen version can differentiate between an everyday buck and a BOAL.

    Whole house Water Softener Systems

    The only thing I could find different on the all in one vs separate tank was that the all in ones only had 3/4” internal valves. Even if it showed 1” connections. I don’t think most people would notice but I did require the extra size for my setup.

    Silencerco Scythe TI review

    I got my tracking info. Should be at my FFL any day. But yeah, he definitely needs some technology help. Emailing was an issue for me as well. I had seen good reviews various places before ordering.

    Whole house Water Softener Systems

    Shouldn't be any issues with salt in the drainfield becuase it chemically reacts with the minerals on the resin beads. You would probably have issues if you were regenerating/backflushing too often. I guess salt water would just flow through. I have extremely hard water. No issues with...

    Whole house Water Softener Systems

    For sure do it yourself. Get a softener unit that has a separate brine tank. The all in one units will cost you more and I couldn't find one with 1" inlet/outlet to reduce flow restriction. You can pick them up on amazon. I found that local places all wanted to do a subscription type...

    Trailer Locks

    The best security is to not be the quickest/easiest thing to steal in the area. I agree on getting a dual/triple system in place to just deter thieves. I use a tongue lock and then a heavy chain through the tandem wheels/axle with a heavy lock in an awkward place. Then apple airtag that sucker
