    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.

    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.

    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
    RyanTRyanT
    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.

    Pretty sure that’s just normal. Mine does the same thing if I don’t have the hose fully open. Still works great for cleaning the patio and driveway though.

    in reply to: Does the battery really only last 15 mins? kinda worried #1303
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    15 mins sounds short but for a small patio and a quick car dust-off it’s honestly enough. I’ve used mine for similar quick jobs and never felt like I was racing the battery. You just have to keep it on the lower speed setting if you want a bit more time.

    in reply to: SpyFocus motion detection sensitivity adjustable? #1271
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I haven’t messed with the sensitivity settings much, but I think there’s a slider in the motion detection section of the app. It’s buried in the settings menu, not super obvious. Mine still catches a few false alerts from cars, but turning it down a notch helped cut that down for me. Works well enough for my setup.

    in reply to: small pocket flashlight doable? #1035
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Totally worth it, a tiny flashlight in the car makes quick nighttime tasks easier and usually lasts way longer than you think if it has decent batteries.

    in reply to: Do underwater scooters really last as long as they say? #752
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Twenty minutes sounds suspiciously short, I’d be skeptical of that claim. I usually pick rentals with a visible battery indicator so you don’t get surprised.

    in reply to: Thinking about a manual chain sharpener #495
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Looks like a handy little tool for casual upkeep, the guide should help keep angles consistent. Good for quick touch ups between full sharpening.

    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Honestly mine’s been pretty solid with saves so far, even switching between different systems. I mostly use normal in-game saves though instead of relying only on save states, and I always exit back to the menu before powering it off.

    in reply to: ClairLite UV lamp – actually useful for phones/keyboards? #454
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    I’ve had a ClairLite for a month and zap phones/keyboards a few times a week. Feels like decent peace of mind and things do smell fresher after a run, though I still wipe off any visible gunk. Compact and the remote/timer actually make it annoyingly easy to use.

    Participant

    I’ve heard these foams can settle a bit after a few months, so that plush feel might compress into a lower profile over time. Maybe okay for stomach sleeping if you switch around, not totally sure though.

    in reply to: Anyone used Translattia earbuds for travel conversations? #284
    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Picked Translattia up last month and pairing was painless. They sit pretty snug so I wear them between meetings no problem. There’s a small translation lag, so I keep exchanges short to avoid awkward pauses.

    RyanTRyanT
    Participant

    Been using MixMate at my desk for a couple weeks. Motor is a quiet whirr, only noticeable if the room is totally silent and you’re right next to it, so meetings weren’t an issue. Battery lasts several days with daily use and cleaning is just a rinse and quick scrub.
