Hey Everyone, After waiting forever, I finally got my Udoo Key and installed some sample code using Windows on the ESP32 and RP2040. I ran into some issues doing this, but I hope this video helps others with getting code onto their Udoo Key. Let me know if you want me to do a video on how I figured out the issues I found when trying to get code on the Udoo Key or if you would like to see a vide...
Google, Pixel 7 - Buggy AF, No Thanks !

Hey Everyone, Google was running a where they offered $100 Google Store credit and $650 for my Samsung S22 256GB Cell Phone which would only cost me $50 tax to upgrade to a Pixel 7. I was excited about the Pixel 7 after seeing all of the reviews, but unfortunately, it was a very buggy experience for me and I ended up returning it. Watch the video to find out what issues I had. If anyone else ha...

Просмотров 2282 года назад
Hey RUclips, I recently got a Panasonic DC-S5 due its amazing video capabilities. I filmed quick video with my kitty @stellsbellscat. I used a Fotodiox EF-L AF Adapter with a Canon 10-18mm EF-S lens, so unfortunately, there isn't continuous AF and recorded the video externally onto a Atomos Ninja V. The video was edited with Resolve Studio, with Panasonic's V-Log LUT applied to it, and exported...
Replacing the cam chain sprocket bolt seal on a Honda S2000 !
Просмотров 6632 года назад
Hey RUclips, If the engine on your S2000 is leaking oil around the bolt on the timing chain cover, the seal on that bolt is more than likely worn and needs to replaced. Luckily, the seal only costs a couple of dollars and takes less than half an hour to replace. Be careful however, because if this bolt is backed out too much, then the timing chain cover is more than likely going to have to come...

Manta Ray Snorkeling on Big Island !

Hey everyone, While I was in Hawaii, I was able to go manta ray snorkeling on Big Island. It's pretty amazing to see them up close, and I didn't know that they can grow up to 16 feet in length ! I believe the ones we saw were around 14 feet in length. If you're ever on Big Island, I definitely recommend doing this. It was definitely one of the highlights of my trip !

Hi RUclips, The typical shelf and clothes rod system in a closet isn't very efficient use of space, so I decided to replace it with an Ikea Boaxel closer system that cost $160. Not bad right?

    Never attempt to solder Li-Ion batteries with a solder iron, they will cause an explosion or worse, fire that you cannot control. There is a reason li-Ion battery are spot welded.

    Thanks for showing where the tabs are! I used a utility knife blade to get a small gap, then shoved in a 0.2 mm thick piece of nickel strip at each of the tabs, came right off. I ordered new 35 Amp cells (Molicel P28A). Hope I don't have to flash the BMS board. I did disconnect the wide plus tab first (end of the chain). Going to reconnect it last after the new cells are spot welded in.

    • @martinrenschler4046
      @martinrenschler4046 24 дня назад

      The battery is fully working after putting new Molicel P28A cells in. So, it seems to help to first disconnect the positive wide voltage tab, then the sense leads, then the ground tab and after reassembly, first connect ground, then the sensor leads, then lastly the full voltage wide positive tab. At first, it didn't run. I had to connect it to the charger. It only charged for some 5 minutes, as all the cells were full. After that short charging cycle, I unplugged it and it ran normally.

    Hi, I read some "comic" comments here , so after a good experience with these Dyson batteries I give you my clear position : - It's possible but difficult to build a new battery in these boxes because you have no space between the cells and the box. - You need absolutely good 20A cells (or more) : the best is new cells , or with exactly the same values (capacity and IR) if already used. If not, don't build such a pack. - You must be sure to get secure weldings to support high drain without any hot point and first of all any short. - You must find another (chinese) BMS, because a disconnected Dyson BMS locks down definitely. Simply short ONE charged 20A cell with a good wire and you will see what happens . (No, please don't try ) So I do that only for my own use , because I know what I do and I can permanently control the packs with an added balance switch, but I never build such a pack for anyone and Bye.... Friendly , Michel .

    Very useful, though the original batteries are rated for 30A and the ones you replaced them have a much lower current capacity. I would have been a little concerned about that.

    I've got one, its a beast, upgraded to the FHD display, and 1TB SSD as well as 64GB of Ram. I also had the issues with the fan kicking in and high temps. Turned out it was caused by Microsoft updates and solved by their updates too. The only downside I would say is that its a tad heavy and not portable at all unless you want a sore shoulder. I paid £500.

    You can purchase adaptors that allow you to use battery packs from DeWalt, Makita, or Milwaukee 18V cordless power tools that work on the Dyson V6. I bought one, only to discover that my Dyson was a DC35 slim (so much for "if your vacuum has 2 filters and a 'Max' button it has to be a V6" (in fact it could also be a DC35)) and therefore not compatible, sigh...

    Hi there. I have an opportunity to get a 16gb (as you know NOT upgradable) version of this laptop with a 5850u cpu. I am considering making it my main driver, and would like to occasionally use it to create content in Da Vinchi or Adobe Premiere Pro, at 1080 res only. Your video suggests that this X13 performs adequately in content creation. You mentioned that you had two test units at your avail, one with 16gb, the other with 32gb or RAM. Which version did you use on your benchmarks? If you did use the 32gb version, do you recall if your tests/rendering relied on >16gb or ram? Also, was your Da Vinchi test for 1080 or 4k content? Knowing the above would help me decide to buy the 16gb, 5850u version or not. I can get it for $500 with two years of warranty - great price point, if it can do 1080 video creation at a reasonable speed. Thanks in Advance Cheers - B.
