Older wiring is probably the least of your worries with something like this. It just plugs in and does whatever it does, the age of the wires doesn’t change that. I’d be more curious if it actually saves anything on the bill rather than just making the lights in the house a bit steadier.
I’m not surprised it takes longer. Denim is thick, air has to work harder. That’s pretty much any dryer that isn’t a commercial beast, not just this one.
15 minutes is fine for a deck. Not sure why people are overthinking it. If it takes longer than that you’re just messing around.
Marketing claims on these things are always overblown. I wouldn’t expect any real specs you can verify. It’s a tiny desk fan, not an AC unit. If you need something that fits in a bag and moves some air near your face, it’ll do that. Just don’t expect it to actually cool anything.
Leather isn’t a metal cage. I’d be more worried about it sliding out or getting bent than the signal. It’ll ping fine.
I get the hesitation, but honestly I wouldn’t worry about it too much. The outside is just smooth plastic so it doesn’t trap gunk the way a textured metal one does. The filter is inside and sealed, so you’re not scrubbing it or dealing with buildup on the actual filter part. I barely think about cleaning mine and it’s been fine.
I think you’re overthinking it. If the cover already blocks RFID, the card is just taking up space in your wallet for no reason.
Sealing the drafts first is probably going to do more than any heater will. Spot heaters just recirculate whatever air is in the room, so if cold air keeps sneaking in, you’re fighting a losing battle.
Honestly, the app layout difference is the only thing that might bug you if you’re switching between phones. But for just using the earbuds normally, it’s fine on both. I wouldn’t overthink it.
I gave mine a shot on an old faded door and honestly it just looked a bit less chalky after. Not a fix, just a slight improvement. I wouldn’t expect much more from a cloth.
Guess it depends how far gone the paint is.
Honestly, I just use mine sitting on the couch and it stays put fine for that. No idea about moving around much, but for a lazy session it does what it’s supposed to.
Honestly, if you’re already seeing droppings, the pouches probably aren’t going to cut it alone. They’re more of a preventative thing, not a cleanup crew.
It probably holds the angle fine if you’re not leaning on it like an ape. I’d still rather just learn to do it by hand than trust a plastic guide for something that matters.
It’s a power drain for sure, but I think the bigger issue is that you’re tethered to your phone the whole time. The battery in the case makes it fine for a day out, but you still need to babysit the app. Not a dealbreaker, just annoying if you’re trying to be hands-free.
I think you’re overthinking it. If it’s rated for bathrooms, just use it. Moisture isn’t going to instantly kill a plug-in heater unless you’re literally spraying water at it.
I think people overthink this one. I just leave mine in my pocket or toss it on the passenger seat and it works fine most of the time. Maybe your cable is just loose or going bad.
Green light probably means it’s powered on, not that it’s actually fixing anything. If your bill looks the same after a few months, it’s likely doing nothing.
Works fine with a standard hose on mine. No leaks, just screwed it on and it held. People probably overcomplicate it.
Battery claims on these things are always exaggerated. 30 minutes probably means with nothing attached on low power in a perfect lab. The brush is a drag, that’s just physics.
I just keep mine in a coat pocket so I haven’t really tested the bag thing. It seems loud enough for that though.
It’s probably fine for killing a few minutes, but I wouldn’t get excited about it. If you’re already buying the stick for streaming, messing with a simple game now and then won’t hurt. Not really a big deal either way.
I’d probably just buy it and see. If it goes dull faster than you like, get a honing rod or something. Worst case you’re back here asking the same question in a few months.
I don’t get the obsession with window placement for something this small. It’s basically a fan with a water tank, not a portable AC unit. Put it wherever you want the air moving and move on.
Honestly I just leave mine on the longest timer and walk away. The auto shutoff is more about not cooking the room than saving time. Forgetting to set it isn’t really an issue if you just pick one setting and stick with it.
Pretty sure NFC runs on the same frequency, so if it blocks one it’s blocking the other too. Mine just sits in my wallet and I haven’t noticed any issues with my phone reading tags or anything, honestly kind of forget it’s in there. Not losing sleep over it.
It picks them up on its own sometimes, but don’t expect it to catch every short nap. I’ve had it register a 20-minute doze and completely ignore a longer one another day. Kind of hit or miss.
I ran one on a 2011 hatchback for a few months. It didn’t mess with anything weird or throw any codes, if that’s what you’re worried about. Didn’t really notice much fuel savings either, to be honest. Just plug it in and forget about it if you want to try it.
I skimmed through this and honestly, the finger hole thing sounds like it’s more trouble than it’s worth. I’d probably just ignore it and use the knife normally.
