    Honestly, I wouldn’t overthink it for a slow drain. It’s just a drain cleaner, it does the job.

    I’ve seen a few people mention the ear tips helping, but honestly I think it’s kind of hit or miss. The fit never felt super locked in to me when I tried them, so I’d be a little cautious if you’re doing a lot of high intensity jogging. Maybe worth a shot if you can return them easily.

    I think I’m in the 8-10 week camp usually. My guy’s fur doesn’t seem to get too crazy unless I slack off, then it’s more like 12 weeks. The eye trim thing is real though, I just snip that myself when it looks shaggy.

    I skimmed a couple replies and it sounds like people are having decent luck with the privacy zones for blocking out specific spots. I haven’t really pushed mine to the limit with something thin like a branch, but for blocking a big reflection off a window it worked no problem. Seems like it’s worth trying at least.

    in reply to: MozzDefense battery life on the lowest light setting? #4039
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve got a different experience honestly. I ran mine on low light with the repellent off and got closer to 20 hours before it gave out. Sounds like the repellent function is really what’s eating your battery.

    in reply to: Logitech MX 3S on Linux – any quirks without Logi Options+? #4031

    I’ve had mine for a few weeks on Fedora and it’s honestly fine for daily use. Bluetooth pairs without issues and the battery lasts forever compared to my old mouse. You do lose the side button customization, but for just clicking around and scrolling it works exactly like you’d expect. Not a dealbreaker unless you really need those extra buttons.

    in reply to: JBL Clip clip size compared to the older model? #3953
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I just got the Clip 5 and the carabiner is definitely a bit bigger than the old one. It’s easier to get onto my backpack strap for sure, but I still have to fumble with it a little on thicker belt loops. Works fine for what I use it for though.

    in reply to: Anyone try the Qinux ScryneX outside with a decent breeze? #3832
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Nah, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. I’ve had mine out on a few breezy nights and it’s stayed put just fine. I just use a couple of bungee cords instead of tape and it’s never gone anywhere.

    in reply to: Is the Qinux BreezaMax quiet enough for a bedroom at night? #3681

    Participant

    I think it really depends how sensitive you are to fan noise in general. I’ve heard mixed things about it, but most people seem to say the low setting is fine for sleeping.

    in reply to: NanoPolix okay on matte paint? #3474

    Participant

    I’d probably just test it on a tiny hidden spot first before going anywhere visible. Better to find out the hard way somewhere nobody looks.

    in reply to: Thinking of using a plug-in heater in bedroom overnight? #3370
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve had mine a couple weeks and just leave it running all night. It’s quiet enough that it doesn’t wake me up, and my room stays warm without the central heat kicking on. Hard to say about the bill yet though.

    in reply to: Anyone tried Clima Pest Guard in a bedroom or on a porch? #3310
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve been using mine in the bedroom for about a week now and honestly I think it helps. I’m not waking up scratching like I used to and it catches a few things overnight.

    in reply to: BareEarth Grounding Mat: works for me, but one gripe #3191
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I mostly use mine during short meditation sessions and it does feel like it helps me settle in quicker. Not sure if that’s the grounding or just the routine, but I’ll take it.

    in reply to: ClairLite placement for a cluttered room – does it matter? #3039
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve got a pretty cluttered living room too and I still notice less dust and odors after running mine, even with stuff in the way. Not totally sure it’s hitting every corner, but seems to help the air enough for me.

    in reply to: Anyone else’s MixMate lid get a bit loose over time? #2746
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I barely notice it on mine, but I also don’t really pay that close attention to how tight the lid feels. Works fine when I shake it up so I guess it’s fine. Probably just the rubber wearing in a bit.

    in reply to: Does the iTagPro work without being right next to your phone? #2691

    Participant

    I grabbed one for my backpack and honestly it works fine for the normal range stuff. Not gonna track your bag across the airport once it’s out of Bluetooth range though.

    in reply to: Ryoko Pro works with any SIM or only theirs? #2525
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’d just use my own SIM and skip their plan entirely. Works fine that way, no need to mess with another account.

    I think it’ll be fine for daily cooking, the ice hardening probably helps a bit. It’s not gonna stay perfect forever but I doubt you’d notice it going dull that fast.

    in reply to: Qinux BarkBuz not picking up all barks? #2156
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I only got mine a few days ago too so I haven’t really tested it enough to say for sure. It caught my dog’s yappy barks fine so far but I haven’t heard the quieter ones to compare. Could just be the way yours is positioned or something maybe.

    in reply to: Ryoko Pro normal to get warm after a few hours? #1958
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Pretty normal for these little routers. Mine gets warm after a few hours of streaming or video calls but it’s never caused any issues.

    in reply to: Anyone use the AlarmTag on a backpack while traveling? #1851
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’d just clip it to a zipper pull or something instead of leaving it dangling loose. Less chance of it getting caught on anything that way.

    in reply to: Earscribe battery life enough for a day out? #1827
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I usually get around 6 hours out of mine when I’m actually using the translation feature a lot. If you’re just listening or having short conversations here and there it’ll probably last longer. I’d just toss them in the case whenever you’re sitting down for a bit.

    in reply to: SynGas and older cars – any issues? #1826
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I plugged one into a 2009 hatchback and honestly didn’t notice any weird OBD2 stuff going on. No check engine lights or anything like that. I think if the port works it’ll probably just run fine.

    From what I’ve seen, the LCD on the case mainly shows the case battery level. I don’t think it breaks it down per earbud, but honestly it’s not something I really noticed until you mentioned it. Works fine for me just keeping an eye on the case charge.

    in reply to: Qinux BreezaMax battery life on medium speed? #1606
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve had mine on my desk for a few weeks now, and on medium speed it easily lasts around 4 to 5 hours before I need to plug it in. That’s with it running while I’m working, so it’s been fine for my afternoon shifts without worrying about the cord.

    in reply to: TrimZa for really thick nails or just regular upkeep? #1405
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I grabbed one mostly for the convenience and honestly it handles regular trimming fine. On really thick nails it can take a bit longer but it still worked for me, just had to go slower. Not totally sure I’d want to use it on really tough stuff every time though.
