    Wearing it while pushing a suitcase or typing messes with the count more than my old one did.

    The fingernail test settles it. If it catches, NuraFix won’t fix it.

    in reply to: Pro Capture waterproof case: does it fog up for anyone else? #7333

    Temp changes are probably the main trigger. I’ve had it stay clear on a warm beach and then fog up on a cooler morning dive, same case, same sealing routine. I don’t think it’s a seal issue so much as just how the air inside reacts.

    Depends on the day, honestly. Some days mine held up fine with the usual back and forth, other days I was hunting for an outlet by dinner. I just keep a small power bank in my bag now and stopped thinking about it.

    Mine made a small difference but honestly the dry hair thing is still there. If the problem is chlorine and your water is heavy with it you’ll probably notice something. If your hair is dry for other reasons this isn’t going to fix it. I keep mine on because the water feels less harsh but I didn’t expect a miracle and didn’t get one.

    in reply to: SleepZee fit after a few weeks, does it loosen up? #7078
    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    It loosens up some, but you are not going to wake up one day and feel like it is too big. I would say the real change happened between week three and four. The morning tightness went from annoying to just noticeable. It does not give much more than that, so if it is painful now, it probably will not get a whole lot better.

    in reply to: Qinux BarkBuz on a puppy, too early or fine? #6926

    I used one of those ultrasonic things on my sister’s puppy when I was watching him for a week. He was about three months old, and honestly it didn’t do much except confuse him. He would stop barking for a second, look around like “what was that?”, and then go right back to whatever he was doing. The reaction was so short that it felt pointless.

    What actually got through to him was just ignoring him until he shut up and then giving him attention. That took longer, sure, but it stuck. The gadget just became a weird noise that happened sometimes.

    I’m not saying it’s harmful or anything, I just don’t think a puppy that young connects the sound to the barking. It’s too abstract for them. They haven’t even figured out why they bark yet, half the time they’re just testing their voice.

    I’d probably put it away for a couple more months and work on basic stuff first. Once they understand “quiet” as a word, then the device might actually mean something. Otherwise you’re just pressing a button that makes a noise they don’t understand.

    Pretty sure you’re fine using whatever USB-C cable you have around. These things all use the same basic charging standard, so unless the cable is completely busted it’ll charge. I’ve used random phone cables for plenty of similar gadgets and never had an issue.

    in reply to: Does the WellHeater dry out the air much? #6332

    Dry air is pretty much standard with any heater, so I wouldn’t single this one out. I run mine in hotel rooms and just deal with it. A humidifier or even a wet towel over a chair helps if it really bothers you.

    in reply to: Breezi AC worth it for a small office cubicle? #6124
    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    Honestly I’d say just try it. It’s not going to cool the whole cubicle or anything, but if it’s right on your desk and pointed at you, it’ll probably take the edge off enough to make the day less annoying.

    3 or 4 days with heat on sounds about right to me. I’ve noticed if I bump it to high heat it drains noticeably faster. Doesn’t seem like yours is acting weird.

    Mine came with three sizes and the small ones worked fine for me. I’ve got narrow ears too, so that was a relief. No need to buy extras unless you lose them.

    Carla82Carla82

    I used it on a couple of scuffs and honestly the shine is the main thing I notice too. The water beading is there but I don’t really check it closely after the first week. Works fine for what it is.

    Honestly I think the vents are fine for what they are. Not gonna fix mouth breathing completely but they help with the dry mouth feeling at least. I wouldn’t overthink it.

    I’d just stick it somewhere else if you’re worried. No point testing the adhesive if you don’t have to.

    I’ve never bothered with the ice chamber on mine. Water alone gives you that evaporative cool-down effect, and for a desk it’s usually enough. The ice probably makes a difference if your office turns into a sauna, but I wouldn’t call it essential.

    I mean, it’s basically a fan with a wet filter, so it’s not going to wreck your bill. I’d just leave it on and stop overthinking it. The only minor annoyance is having to top up the water if you run it all day, but that’s not a power issue.

    Member

    People get pretty hung up on perfect placement, but I think you’re overthinking it. I tossed mine on a random end table in a hotel room once and still got the local channels fine. Moving it higher might help in a tricky spot, but it is not like the thing stops working if it is not glued to the ceiling.

    I’m not totally convinced it’s that precise. I’ve had it light up when I didn’t think I was pressing hard, and other times it stays off when I’m rushing. Maybe it’s calibrated a bit loosely.

    Honestly mine’s been fine with my MacBook Air when I’m traveling. Not the fastest thing I’ve used but it gets the job done without any drama. I’d keep it.

    I think people expect too much from a little pouch. It’s not gonna work miracles if you’ve got mice already living in there. But I tossed a couple in my RV last fall and didn’t see any signs of visitors, so it seemed to do something. Hard to prove it was the pouch and not just luck though.

    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    30W is fine if your laptop isn’t doing heavy stuff. It won’t fast charge it, but it’ll keep it from dying in a bag or during light use. People act like it’s complicated, but it’s really just about whether your laptop pulls more power than the bank gives.

    Bluetooth has been solid in my experience, no drops or weird behavior. You can’t tweak the side buttons or scroll speed without the software, but out of the box it does the job for office stuff.

    in reply to: Does the Qinux Klampero actually keep the angle consistent? #3836
    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    I mean, it’s not a precision tool but for touch ups between proper sharpenings it holds the angle fine. I wouldn’t rely on it for a full worn out chain but it takes the guesswork out for basic maintenance.

    in reply to: Qinux BittOne battery while playing on TV? #3831
    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    I wouldn’t overthink the battery thing. It probably drains a bit more when driving the TV, but mine lasted through a few hours of old-school platformers without dying on me. I just plug it in if I’m already near an outlet anyway.

    in reply to: SawShark worth it for a beginner or just another gadget? #3202

    I get why people say it’s just a guided file, but for a beginner who’s never touched a chainsaw file before, the guide probably helps more than people give it credit for. Still, I wouldn’t expect it to turn you into a pro overnight.

    in reply to: Glacier Breeze water tank size vs my old cooler? #3089
    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    Honestly, you’re overthinking it. 500ml is fine for a desk, you just top it off whenever you get up to stretch your legs. It’s not like you’re trying to cool a warehouse with it.

    Weird, mine’s been spot on since day one. Tracks my sleep and wake times exactly as I remember them. Might be a bad unit on your end.

    Carla82Carla82
    Member

    Honestly, I think it’s fine. Mine sat for a bit over two weeks once and it didn’t feel like it had to start from scratch. Just took a short drive to feel normal again.

    in reply to: AiraBreeze water tank smell after sitting overnight? #2794

    Never had that issue with mine, but I only use it in hotel rooms and dump the water before I check out anyway. Stagnant water is gonna smell eventually, that’s just how it works.
