Yep I wish I could do the work myself on this thing. It's kind of a money pit but today came out good. Got to Les Schwab which is a large tire and repair chain up here. They hooked it all up and the alignment was perfect but while checking the tire pressure found out the inside right dual was flat so the took them off and checked it out it must've happened on the trip up there cause I didn't notice anything on the way. Didn't do any damage to the tire but it was the valve extension so they replace that an remounted the tire. Total price for the whole job 0. It's where I got my tires at another location but I thought that was pretty good considering they spent about an hour on it.
Eciggity is having a 20% off sale on everything. They are making it really hard to resist those Therions that puts them down to a little over $100 each. Cheapest I have seen anywhere.
What tires are you running. I've got a set if Goodyear G670RV on mine and I love em. They have a really heavy dose of UV inhibitors in em and seem to stand up to the sun really well.

What's a "Pico"? I like the looks of that too.

eleaf device, comes with or without the Pico tank.

The mod is a very small single 18650, 75 watt, TC capable. Nice device, my second in on the boat ;)

Haven't used the tank.

I like the better detail. Very sharp. Welcome back!
Still alive. Don't know if I told you all but this last weekend was the first attempt at fixing the dash A/C in the motorhome. Pumped it down, fixed what we thought was the leak and charged it up. Icy cold blowing from the dash vents. All good, butttt waiiiiitttt! Got into the beast this morning and started it up. No cold air. Guages on once again. No charge. Broke out the freon leak detector and did a serious trace on the whole system. The a/c compressor is leaking like a sieve around the shaft where it goes into the clutch assembly. Ordered a new compressor and receiver/dryer and it should be here in a few days. We are keeping it so it's best that I fix it 100% correctly. While I have it apart I'll take the hoses to the local rubber shop and have them make me new ones. I already have a assortment of air conditioning system o-rings so I won't need them. Oh well, another 3 or 400 dollars down the drain. Just thought I'd check in and let you all know what I've been up to. Miss you all. :)
So, is this the end of it? Ready to go home to Florida?

And now for something COMPLETELY different.......

A Dad walks into a Denny's after Sunday Morning Services with his two young Sons.
They sit in a booth with the Father across from the two Sons and the waitress approaches and asks the older of the two sons what he'd like to order.
Out of the blue the boy loudly states, "I'll have me a God :censored: Cheeseburger!"
WHOP! The Fathers open hand stretches across the table and smacks the boy into the back corner of the booth.
The waitress lowers her head slightly and quietly asks the second, younger Son, What would you like to eat, hun?
Wide eyed, the boy loudly proclaims, "Well, you can bet yer sweet :censored: I ain't gonna order no God :censored: Cheeseburger!"
(Buddy Hacket on The Tonight Show)

Daughter has just invited me to go to the movies with her next month....:) I'm looking forward to this one.....even if it's just a new telling of an old story... A bit of trivia for those who may not know.... The story was based on the Japanese film "The Seven Samurai"...;)

    Funny, there was a movie out years ago that was also based on "The Seven Samurai". Can't quite think of the name of it but it had Yul Brenner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, can't quite remember who else in it.:D

    I didn't even get the matching tank ... just the Pico itself for <$30. I'm quite happy w/ my various Kayfuns & some Kabuki's. No need for yet another tank.

    Likewise, no tanks with mine, and iirc about that price. (Too lazy to look it up! :lol: )

    And not so much not room for another tank, just no big desire to have another TYPE of tank, to worry about spare parts!

    That will be a good movie. I was watching the original Magnificent Seven. I must have been watching it on a low budget channel as it was one that gave a bit of talking commentary before and at different times during the movie. That was when I found out about the Japanese connection.

    Arrg, I hate mice! I keep a jar in my garage that has treats in it so I can give her one if she did her duty while we are outside. Tonight I stuck my hand in the jar and felt something run across my hand. I removed my hand and there was a mouse in the bottom of the jar. I found the lid and put it on the jar and threw it in the trash.

    Today my box of VG and PG from Essential Depot was delivered by the Big Brown Truck. 3 gallons of VG and 1 gallon of PG. That coupled with the liter of nicotine I got last month I am set for about the next 7 years.

    @bigbells, I missed wishing you a happy birthday. Keep the videos coming.

    Hay, wind shear, gusty, mini tornado, ice on da wingz, fast growin' tree.
    As you can see from this video 2.5 years ago (before I had a drone with a 3-axis stabilizing camera gimbal), I've used the fast growing tree excuse.


    And here's a few seconds of video showing one Phantom drone in the air being videoed by another Phantom drone in the air, also about 2.5 years ago. In this case, I was piloting one of the drones and my baby bro Drew was piloting the other.

    O! M! G!!
    Battlebots was a slaughter tonight!
    Decapitations, Flames and Brutality! Oh My!!! :shock: :lol:

    Pretty awesome show last night... no more drones getting slapped outta the sky with a rake, though. :(:lol:
    Poor Warhead... I actually saw that one coming before the fight even started. The angle of that spinning disk, in relation to that vertical spinner..... just a decapitation waiting to happen!
