Where to repair Hydraulic Jack?

BaronVonchesto — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 14:36:14 +0800

I have a small 2 ton trolley type hydraulic jack. Unfortunately it seems there is a leak in on of the seals. It is not leaking oil, but when you jack up a car, the car starts coming down immediately, making this jack unusable.

Does anyone know where I can get the jack repaired?

How to reduce reverse sensor sensitivity?

BaronVonchesto — Fri, 07 Oct 2022 20:59:55 +0800

So i bought a cheapo reverse sensor (2 eye) kit on shopee. Wanted to use it as front parking sensor.

Went through all the hassle to drill my bumper and install the kit and it works fine, but it is too damn sensitive. From far away like 1.5 meters it'll go BEEEEEEEEEEP as if im already touching the obstruction. So it is not at all useful for the reason I installed it.

Any ideas how to reduce the sensitivity? is it the sensor eye or the control unit that controls the sensitivity?

Anyone got a suggestion on a replacement kit to fit so that I can actually use it as parking sensors for the front?

Anyone using Digi Fibre broadband?

BaronVonchesto — Sun, 13 Jun 2021 23:33:44 +0800

Im considering moving from Unifi. not that im particularly unhappy (well it IS unifi, so its just that you are used to it lah).

however id like to upgrade my plan and seeing that unifi is so much more expensive than maxis, digi, celcom etc I want to consider it. How is Digi Fibre now for:

1) Netflix
2) youtube
3) Torrenting
4) Downloading from steam
5) MMO gaming (ping, routing quality etc)
6) Can still get a public IP? I have cctv and my own DDNS & email server so this is a sticking point for me.
7) Can still use your own router? I have my own custom home network setup with an Asus AC88 router. no interest in changing to some shitty isp router.

Any traffic shaping or throttling? whats their (un)fair usage policy like?

how is maxis fibre in 2021?

Im considering moving from Unifi. not that im particularly unhappy (well it IS unifi, so its just that you are used to it lah).

however id like to upgrade my plan and seeing that unifi is so much more expensive than maxis, Im wondering how is it now in 2021? It used to be really awful in the past (2012-2013). How is it now for:

1) Netflix
2) youtube
3) Torrenting
4) Downloading from steam
5) MMO gaming (ping, routing quality etc)

2015 Myvi 1.5 SE vs 2011 1.3 SXi fuel consumption

BaronVonchesto — Mon, 28 Oct 2019 00:13:54 +0800

hi guys my 2011 myvi 1.3 will soon be 10 years and is approaching 100k km dy, so im thinking I should consider changing my car before the car value drops like a stone.

Don't really have a preference for a different car, but I only like to drive manual, which Malaysia has almost no choices, so might as well just go for another myvi, but don't want to get a new car (waste of money).

I'd like to get another 1.3, unfortunately all 1.3 (M) 2015 onwards dont even have ABS & EBD (so basically a downgrade compared to my current car), so I guess if i want to change my car I have to get the 1.5 version instead.

My question is, how big a difference is the fuel consumption between a 1.3 and 1.5? Im a fairly aggressive driver (but not super heavy footer). North-south expressway only do 120-130 max, but in the city highways i typically go 90-100.

Driving habits: 50% LDP jam, 20% city driving, 30% outstation highway.

How bit a difference in fuel consumption could I expect moving from a 1.3 to 1.5?

[WTB] mSATA mini (half size) SSD

BaronVonchesto — Mon, 17 Sep 2018 19:13:45 +0800

Hi all. I'm looking to buy a mSATA mini SSD. The half size one, not the standard size. Looking for 64GB or 128GB, but may consider bigger if the price is okay.

Anything less than 64GB is not acceptable as I want to run windows 10 on it.

Please PM me the price if you have. New preferred, don't think I will consider a used SSD as I have no idea how it has been used (and thus the life)

Where to buy Soundproofing material like STP

BaronVonchesto — Sat, 23 Sep 2017 22:54:32 +0800

Hi guys I have a small car (classic mini) that needs soundproofing. Im on a tight budget (dont want to spend more than 300) and Im perfectly happy to DIY it. I can get closed cell rubber foam layers from lazada, but I also need to deal with the vibration.

I know I can get bitumen tape (roof sealing / flashing tape) from hardware stores which are cheap, but from what i've read, in the heat the bitumen will release fumes which are bad for health, hence I'd like to go with a butyl based material like STP instead.

Question: Where can I get STP or similar on the cheap? Other than STP what are other brands I can consider and where to get? Please dont say Dynamat, its just too expensive.
