So far so good. The Husky rolling tool bag is my number one tool storage bag. I also use the Ridgid 2.0 setup but not as much. -The Husky bag has taken a nice beating going up and down subway steps, in and out of my car and knocked around on job sites. The only real complaint is that it gets caught on stairs when going down and you have to tilt it at a really low angle to avoid getting stuck on each step. Either that, or hand carry it down, but I have it pretty loaded and it’s heavy. BTW, I lived in Utica for a few years and would stop at Honest weight food coop in Albany on the way to NYC and back. Thanks for watching!

Sometimes I’ll just take one bin depending on the job. I also have the Husky 18” rolling tool bag, which is actually the main tool bag for me - use it for all my main hand tools like hammer, pliers, screwdrivers and such.

Yes, a 100 watt Jackery solar panel will charge the 290 faster than the 40 watt panel - about 5 hours for the 100 watt panel according to the Jackery website, which is actually faster than the 65 watt home AC charger by about 1 hour!

I followed over from your other video where you showed off charging the unit with solar power. I had an issue of always having my usb-c solar charging get disconntected/stopped at some point, requiring me to unplug/replug in to get. I mentioned in the other video that it doesn't seem to happen if I charge the unit via two panels at the same time (via both ports). Not always handy to do. I thought about things a bit more today and realized a better idea would be to plug the solar panel directly into my Jackery 300 and then plug this into the 300 via the car adapter. I tried it out today and in a just a few hours (2 hours) I was able to get my Jackery unit topped up from 80% to 100% and my jackery 100 unit topped up from 66% to 100% without any disconnections. All while charging two usb-a devices off the jackery 300 at the same time. On the topic of pluggig in the Jackery 100 into the Jackery 300, I noticed before, and was not able to resolve, if I plug the Jackery 100 in via usb-c on the Jackery 300, it actually draws the power from the Jackery 100 into the Jackery 300. Very odd behaviour and I don't know what triggers this. I tried many times unplugging and replugging in, toggling on/off the dc usb on the jackery 300. As soon as I have the jackery 100 plugged into the Jackery 300 via usb-c it always wants to charge the 300 with the 100. When I do the same via plugging into the Jackery 300 car port and a dc-to-usb adapter into the Jackery 100, it charges the Jackery 100 with the Jackery 300 (as desired) including "solar charging passthrough". So, the nuts of it, everything is good now, at least for me, as I always have my Jackery 300 handy and I prefer to use it for plugging in my solar panels and then my devices to charge or passthrough charge into the Jackery 300.

Has anyone has an issue with the jackery 100 where it stops charging via solar on usb c until you have unplugged and replugged in? I would setup the unit to charge either using the jackery 100w or a third party solar panel and it happens with both. I wou D set it up, see it is charging at like 55W and the time estimate, leave it be to witness it continue to go, then walk away. It would estimate 3 hour charge time, so I’d c9me back in 5 hours and witnessed no increase in %, as it had stopped charging a few mins after walking away. It’s hard to read the screen in sunlight, so I started using some usb c cables that report the power flow through the cable (easier to read). I will see the correct wattage and then notice after a brief time it just drops to 0. The panels don’t have this behavior when charging a 300 or 1000.
@ljshowtoАй бұрын
Even though, I didn't review the 100 Plus in this video (I did a few reviews in other videos), I have a few thoughts on the 100 plus. First, I found that the usb C input is sensitive to usb cords other than the supplied orange colored jackery and have to pushed very firmly to get a proper connection. Even then, I have found that I've had to do exactly what you did - pulling the cord in and out to re-establish a connection. I have also noticed that the Jackery generators will start to "throttle" the input as it nears full charge - as I think it's to keep the battery from overheating. At full charge, my Jackery generators will totally stop any input and show zero watts at the input display.

@@ljshowto I’ll check out your review video on the unit. Everything you said is correct. I immediately thought the usb cable might be the issue. I happen to have the original orange jacket cable and tried that - same result. I tried the other port - same result. You are right about the charging stopping when reaching a threshold or if batteries heat up. Likewise in both cases, I was at 37% charge and unit was itself was both in shade and not hot. It was happening with both the official jackery 100w solar panel and a third party 30w panel. I was getting frustrated and my last resort was trying to plug in both panels into the unit via the two usb c ports. I was able to get it fully charged using this method.

There's one key thing to keep in mind for these salt lamps. Supposedly they work by generating ionizing particles in the air, but that only happens when the salt is heated by the bulb. (It doesn't take much.) This is the reason they all come with incandescent bulbs, because they are the only type that generate heat to make the process work. Halogen bulbs also generate heat, of course, but it would likely be TOO much heat to be operated safely. And those bulbs are already being phased out. You'll be able to use LED bulbs in these, but because LED bulbs generate little or no heat, no ionization will occur, and the lamps will be strictly decorative. Personally I think it would be cool to use one of those "flame effect" bulbs inside, if you can find one that will fit. The flickering light inside the salt would make me think of volcanoes.
@ljshowtoАй бұрын
Good point. I know the led bulb doesn’t really generate heat, but the electronics driving the bulb can - more so with higher wattage bulbs though. That being said, I’m sure incandescent bulbs would generate way more heat. I’m wondering what the temperature threshold would be to activate ionizing particles?

It sounds like it’s a larger air conditioner and probably old. In addition, this is more than a rattling AC cover. I imagine the compressor is vibrating excessively because it’s old and perhaps the fan or fan shaft could be failing too. That in addition to the structural integrity of the building could be contributing to the noise/vibration as it travels up the wall and across the floor. A new air conditioner could possibly make things a bit better if it is an older unit, and yeah, what are the chances of the neighbor springing for a new unit? Maybe split the costs? All that said, I’m not an HVAC expert, and just tossing around some thoughts. A reddit group might be able to help, or a HVAC contractor. Hope you find a remedy soon.

Oh, sorry, I thought this was a comment on my Jackery 300 plus video, but my bad, it's the 100 plus, so disregard my last comment redirecting to another video : )
@@DylanDurdle Sounds like there is something wrong with the unit. Best bet is sending it back to Jackery for a repair or exchange. It sucks that you have to go through all of that diagnostic instead of just plugging in and charging the way it's supposed to do.
the collar can't be turned quarterof turn, it is stuck and blade can't be taken out! pls help. what is the black ring with an arrow? in what direction to turn?
I would lightly tap the collar with a hammer or maybe the side of pliers or chisel - might be frozen a bit- just needs to be knocked loose.
There's one key thing to keep in mind for these salt lamps. Supposedly they work by generating ionizing particles in the air, but that only happens when the salt is heated by the bulb. (It doesn't take much.) This is the reason they all come with incandescent bulbs, because they are the only type that generate heat to make the process work. Halogen bulbs also generate heat, of course, but it would likely be TOO much heat to be operated safely. And those bulbs are already being phased out. You'll be able to use LED bulbs in these, but because LED bulbs generate little or no heat, no ionization will occur, and the lamps will be strictly decorative. Personally I think it would be cool to use one of those "flame effect" bulbs inside, if you can find one that will fit. The flickering light inside the salt would make me think of volcanoes.
Good point. I know the led bulb doesn’t really generate heat, but the electronics driving the bulb can - more so with higher wattage bulbs though. That being said, I’m sure incandescent bulbs would generate way more heat. I’m wondering what the temperature threshold would be to activate ionizing particles?
Thank you
Two SolaSaga 40w Mini's can be connected in series to the Explorer 100 Plus via the Jackery Solar Series Connector according to Jackery. Have 2 x SolaSaga 40W Mini's. Ordered the Solar Series Connector. Will try it out soon and post results here.
Sounds good, keep me posted!
These panels so expensive thou
pretty sad friedrich didnt spec the fully adjustable grille.. kenmore did and boy did i keep that grille when the unit died.
the classic sound of a small chassis LG/GoldStar
Glad this exists. Thanks. Sadly I think the one I have received has been put together poorly in the factory as the main supporting struts on each side don't seem to fit in. Might have to try and file off some of the paint and then see
A really super duper quiet window AC? Yeah, right here: amzn.to/3xCXl9k (Affiliate link)
Don’t get a paper cut bro
Or a metal cut 😊
Do you need to unplug battery. Or is it safe without doing that?
it’s OK to leave the battery hooked up, just make sure no one starts the car - take the keys out of the ignition :-)
@@ljshowto thank you so much
Here is a better water filter system with tens of thousands of reviews at almost the same price as just the Grayl replacement water filter: Sawyer portable water filter system- amzn.to/3znfngq
I don't like the fact that the solar panel connects via USB-C, such a fragile connector with a huge cable hanging off from it.
I wish I had KZreadd this before ....purchased a brand new Friedrich and had it returned for the same reasons. A new one was delivered and installed same issue but not as loud. I had to trouble-shoot myself as the technician wasn't able to figure out where the issue was coming from. I ended up taping the grill and the filter and it corrected the issue.
Oh well, at least you have a newer model that might be more efficient.
@@ljshowto - Thank you. Don't AC companies have quality control depts? How can you sell brand new ACs to ppl and they have to resort to these measures? Mind boggling but appreciate KZreadrs like yourself who can share their pearls of wisdom w/the rest of us.
The rear isn’t a drum, it’s disc
It's both. The inside is a drum for the parking brake.
I've got oil in mine. Just bought a valve cover gasket. Do I need gasket sealant on any of it?
I could have dripped into the spark plug socket area every time oil was added - it can happen very easily. I would make sure that wasn't the problem before you put on a valve cover gasket.
Thank you so much for this very helpful suggestion, especially for those of us living in a apartment complex with a wall fitted air conditioner and a site manager who won't do anything about it. 🙄🤷♀I will be trying this hack and hoping it works! Take care, my friend. 🙏
Good luck!
Can you turn son off to connect to a device that only supplies 2.4 and when it connects can you turn son back on ? Or will it loose its connection ?
I would imagine it could work as long as the device is not turned off, but why not leave both frequencies available with SON off?
It worked for me. Thank you for saving me a trip to the store, and from being embarrassed by my wife for spoiling the wall. :).
Glad I could help!
Was this real
Yep
@@ljshowto mine is locked. No way for me to do that
Really helpful. Thank you
what about the EXPORT button? its greyed out. i cant convert my videos to mp4
Sometimes a close or export button will be greyed because a small window may be open behind other windows. Filmora is notorious for having this happen. It could be something like the last export window showing it's finished is open behind the filmora app. Try moving windows around and see what's behind them.
Mine rattles and sounds like a bang when the compressor kicks on. Wakes me up at night because it sounds like someone breaking in 😅
Guess it’s an oldy if its that loud 😊
I wonder if you could hook up two 40W panels connected to the Jackery 100 Plus thereby doubling the wattage to 60W as in your setting e.g. two cables from both solar panels connected to both of the Jackery 100 Plus USB-C ports.
Interesting question- I’m wondering if it would allow two flows of input also.
All you would need is the jackery solar connector
@@charlesfinnley5106 Got it & yes, it works fine. 2 x 40W solar saga in series through this connector pulls in 55W ~ 65W on average.
What about a low whistling sound ?
Not sure what that could be, maybe a constriction or some debris narrowing the outlet to the vent?
My neighbour in the floor below has a window ac fitted into the wall. It is causing immense vibrations in my house so much so that its impossible to sit the room and its causing headaches and palpitations. What can be the cause?
It sounds like it’s a larger air conditioner and probably old. In addition, this is more than a rattling AC cover. I imagine the compressor is vibrating excessively because it’s old and perhaps the fan or fan shaft could be failing too. That in addition to the structural integrity of the building could be contributing to the noise/vibration as it travels up the wall and across the floor. A new air conditioner could possibly make things a bit better if it is an older unit, and yeah, what are the chances of the neighbor springing for a new unit? Maybe split the costs? All that said, I’m not an HVAC expert, and just tossing around some thoughts. A reddit group might be able to help, or a HVAC contractor. Hope you find a remedy soon.
We brought an electrician, he said that wall is just 5 inches thick and the only way out is to switch to a split ac. They shifted some time back and we have been suffering since more than 3 weeks. There is a split ac next door on that floor however that doesn't send such crazy vibrations.
@@salehabegum9223 Mini splits are nice, but expensive. The compressor mounts outside on a wall, or on the ground, and will probably be a lot quieter. That being said, If the outside unit is mounted on the wall, there might be a wee bit of vibration being the outside wall is quite thin, but overall way better solution. I have a friend who just got one installed in his small coffee cafe and the outside unit is super quiet.
If the brushed version works this well I'd only imagine how good the Fuel version of it is.
If it’s something that you are going to use a lot, I would definitely go for the brushless. I haven’t used my Milwaukee brushed saw that much so don’t know how it holds up to heavy use. That being said, I use a brushed Ridgid multi tool frequently and it’s holding up well.
