Return my money
Works great so far. I’ll keep it. Lol. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!
Return money
Working great so far. Thanx for the second comment. Lol. God Bless!!
Thinking about using these on my deck, treated boards. I’m a bit weary these won’t fasten as well at this angle as traditional screws coming through the top face. What’re your thoughts?
They fasten as well… the issue I have found is that if you need to remove them for any reason it is super difficult to get the alignment correct to unscrew them. Thanx for the question. Be Safe and God Bless!!
This worked perfectly!!!
Awesome glad we could help. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
😮That's sad, sorry. Hopefully you were able to turn on your small window A/C with the Delta Pro to cool off and be able to sleep some. 😉🙋♂️
😂😂😂 yup that window unit and Delta pro saved the day. Thanx for checking us out. God Bless!!
Just watched your 1st video on this and just watched this update video. Did you mention the window AC BTU, looks like a 5,000 btu, but may be larger. I need to try my DP on each of my small ac's. I have a 5, 8 and 12,000 btu units which I use during hurricane season. I sure appreciate the info you provide brother, thanks!🙋♂️
Glad they help. It’s an 8,000 btu AC unit so you should be in decent shape to start. Thanx again. God Bless!!
Kinda bummed you don't have a link or the brand name of the knife you used in the description. You say, use a bread knife, if you don't have a fancy one like this, a regular bread knife could work. Why is yours fancy?
Yeah a link wouldn’t be a bad idea. We literally just picked the cheapest one on Amazon. I didn’t want to potentially ruin my real bread knife 😂. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!
Thanks so much !
No problem thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Can you use regular scrubbing bubble cleaner or is it better to use the foam cleaner like in video???
I’m sore you can use the regular too. Might not stick as well vertically but could rub on and scrub. Good luck and God Bless!!
Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely!! Hope it helps. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
I use a Japanese style flush trim saw. It cuts like butter.
Oh yeah great idea. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Too many extension cords here.
Isn’t that the truth??? Can’t wait to be done with them. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
yes this product is more for DIY projects, not professional plumbing which primer would need to be seen to pass inspection.
Very true, fortunately or not we don’t have any plumbing inspections. Only septic. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Hey y’all. I tried this but with more than 23 years at least since cleaning;Was not working but Carbona oven cleaner with NO harsh smell worked much better for me !Just my 2 cents. Lol. Blessings ❤
Awesome glad you got it worked out. 23 years is a lot of soot. 😂😂. Thanx for the comment and we love your name. God Bless!!
Thank you, it turned out great
That's Awesome!!! Glad we could help. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Your supposed to put a lot more adhesive Caulking than that.
Thanx for the recommendation. If we ever take it up we will use more. God Bless!
Amen🎉
Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Great job. If it worked for that house. Then so be it.
Thanx a bunch. That’s how we feel about most of what we do. It may not be perfect but it’s functional. Be Safe and God Bless!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanx a bunch. God Bless!
Good Job Cuz
Thanx Cuz!! Hot water coming in soon. LY God Bless!!
You basically showed what the ag industry has known for years. Chemical spray works better. The “all natural” crowd hates that fact but its true. Tilling and burning is a temporary fix unless you use the proper chemicals. FYI. Next time go 3oz of glyphosate with 2oz per gallon of 2,4d in your hand tank sprayer. I wish the “all natural” stuff worked but it doesn’t. Hi concentrate vinegar doesn’t work either. It only burns the green then the weeds re grow.
Thanx for the comment and suggestion. I was really hoping the burn would work, not all tree hugger like, to kill the bugs mostly. 😂. I’ll try that mixture next time. Thanx again and God Bless!!
@@watavuemountain481 BASF Fendona might help as a concentrate bug spray.
@cdee6096 we will look that up
thanks, did you install the sil and the floor sweeps? Also, I think a 36door (35.75) needs an overll .25in space so the jambs are extactly 36in inside. thanks for the tip on using table saw to make the kert for the weather stipping... I was thinking of using a router.
Hey thanx for the comment. Yes we did use a sil pan and the floor sweep. Made the pan ourselves from some tin. Glad we could help. God Bless!!
About to try this now! Thank you good sir!
Awesome!!! Hopefully it works as well for you as it did for us. God Bless!!
What screws are recommended for both the straps and hurricane clips? Thank you
Thanx for the question. I’m pretty sure we used 2 1/2 inch on the face and 1 1/2 inch on the side straps. Both the Simpson SD screws that you can get anywhere they sell the hurricane ties. Hope that helps. God Bless!!
That looks good Cuz. Is the material similar to FRP fiberglass reinforced plastic? God Bless you all Cuz.
Thanx Cuz. It is similar but a little softer or more pliable if that make sense.
Works great on EVERYTHING!!! Thanks
Absolutely!!! Glad we could help. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Definitely have to run at least 500w of input solar power
Thanx for the suggestion, we are working on clearing some trees to make that a possibility!! Be safe and God Bless!!
So is that unit consistently off in estimating runtime based on current load, or was it just that high a load? I’m wondering how one might compensate for better accuracy.
I think it adjusts based on the load currently being pulled. So when compressor is running it shows shorter time and visa versa for when it’s off. Not sure if anything gets that right. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
I think four hours for a 3600 watt hour unit, it’s using a lot of power.There is also too many variables to make a conclusion. How hot did the room get, how long did the compressor ran, if the.compressor didn’t shut off, because of poor insulation, or the day was too hot, also. How old is the EcoFlow, also determines, the outcome.
All great points. There are a lot of variables, it was mostly just to show that the EcoFlow could actually run it for more than 30 minutes or so. It was a really hot day, about 88 degrees with 70% humidity. We appreciate the thoughtful comment. God Bless!!
@@watavuemountain481 👍
It will run a fan with a bag of ice in front of it much longer
Yeah that might work. Not sure how well with our crazy humidity but it may be worth a shot. Thanx for the suggestion!! God Bless!!
Won't work, I bought a block of ice and blew my small fan over it in a cuddy boat cabin. I was dripping with sweat and humidity went through the roof 😰 😂.
@dipstick5869 that’s the problem we have, humidity!! I guess in a dry climate it would work but not here. Thanx for another comment. God Bless!!
I bought a Petra Mini Fogger to try before I purchased a larger model. I did the set-up according to the instructions. First time using it the fogger worked for about 10 min. before only putting out air only. Tried many times to get it to work like advertised but it only got worse. Now it doesn't work at all ... not even turning on. The contact Iv had with the company stated that someone would contact me soon. BUT STILL NOTHING. Don't waste your money with Petra Tools. I lost $100 on the purchase I made.
UGH.. thanx for letting us know, so far so good for us. We had you had such a bad experience. Of course if we have any issues we will make a video about it. God Bless!!!
Really liking your progress and dedication!
Thanx brother, we appreciate your continued support. God Bless!!
Good job cuz looks good God Bless you all
Thanx Cuz!! God Bless!!
I used your Process to clean my fireplace and it worked. Good easy way to clean fireplace. Thanks for sharing
Awesome!!! Glad it worked and we could help. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Yeah, it takes a hot minute for that compressor to kick in but once it does that thing I’ll shoot up to three or 400 W easy. You’re absolutely right unless you have something that is dumping that energy back into the EcoFlow power bank then it’s not gonna be able to sustain that long
We have a couple 100w solar panels that we are going to try out next trip. Unfortunately we don't have a great window that is unobstructed yet to maximize their sun time. Add that to the list of other things we need to take care of. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
You probably could run the generator one hour and get multiple hours of EcoFlow time, so the generator isn't running nearly as much.
Absolutely!! We just wanted to test it out to see how it does solo. We ran the gas generator for most of the day without any issue. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Love me some you ❤
Ditto!!! Hope all is well Brother!! God Bless!!
Cuz, I recently purchased a Bluetti solar generator for my camper it should run everything but the AC. I just need to change the start on the AC to a soft start to get that to work. Will have to you tube that to see how it’s done. I also have an eco flow as a back up to use for other electronics. God Bless Cuz
@marioswanson that’s awesome Cuz!! I know you’ll get it worked out. God Bless!!
If it's not humid the bonaire swapcooler works great. Just leave a window open about an inch. On the other sid or house.
Thanx for the recommendation, unfortunately it’s almost always very humid Be Safe and God Bless!
I see that Alabama heat & humidity has you glistening all over! It's hard to breathe in that combination. Things at the cabin are looking good.... you'll reach the finish line sooner than later!
You know it, it has been brutal this summer. We appreciate you following along and always adding words of encouragement. We will be at the finish line soon. God Bless!!
thank you for the help. I tried this and it cleaned my stone like magic. I have used other things but it never cleaned like the scrubbing bubbles.👍
You’re more than welcomed, glad we could help. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Thank you for an honest review. I have a delta 2 and a window ac 5k btu only lasted. 1 hour
Absolutely!!! We are working on a longer video to show how many hours we really get with just the window unit going.. thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
That looks awesome Cuz good job God Bless you both
Thanx Cuz!! We appreciate your continued support. God Bless!!
These batteries are shit, i hope everyone understands that. You can't beat a generator
Thanx for the comment. So far they have been great for most everything else we do at the mountain. We will let you know if they turn south on us. God Bless!!
If shit hits the fan and gas stations close that generator will be useless. I have a brand new in the box generator & 15 gallons of gas. I bought mine just for that reason. May not power an ac for long by it it would keep your freezer going
@@chefmichaelo mostly just like every other generator. Except this can be solar charged. We just got the panels so we will see how it goes. We’ll let everyone know. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!
@@watavuemountain481 On cloudy days I use my small Honda EU 2,000 on Eco mode and turn my Delta pro inlet power switch to slow/custom setting because the Honda puts out over 2,000 watts. The Delta Pro input shows 400 watts. With the app, you can custom the input from your gas generators and bring the input on up to the limit. I just like it at 400 watts which is 25% of the Honda's output and it will run for 12 hours on a gallon of gas. God Bless You Also!🙏👍
Yeah a gas powered generator is surely the go to, however it’s the solar panels on a sunny day this works great for us. We still use a gas generator on cloudy days too. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
I think you need to bleach the whole trailer also
Bahahahaha!!! Absolutely!!! Now that we have water st the mini cabin we are going to give her a bath!! Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
The epitome of American silliness: washing a driveway. What the hell is wrong with people? Ridiculous. Sad, actually. Very sad. 😔
IKR!! It really is kinda crazy. The hand for the comment. God Bless!!
Made an air blaster from an old extinguisher.
Oh that’s a cool idea. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Nice tool!
Yes sir. Thanx for the comment, hope all is well. God Bless!
The eco flow delta should have a capacity of 1.2 kilowatt hours. Take that 200 to 400 range and call it 300 watt hours to run your AC. 1200÷300= 4 hours of use. Makes sense.
It’s actually 3.6 kWh so even better when the compressor isn’t running. We will do a longer video showing the AC cycling to get a better idea. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
@watavuemountain481 Either you're running something else off of it too, or it's drawing more power than 400 watts when the compressor runs. That's a lot of power for a 4 hour run.
@@DH-rt3fk very true, that is a lot of power. Hope to test it again this weeekend to see. Will let everyone know.
Those batterys in a box wont make a pot of coffee.
Bahahahaha. This one will actually. It runs the whole cabin, including making coffee. Just won’t run the AC very long. Thanx for the comment. God Bless!!
Great job ❤❤❤
Thanx so much, we appreciate the support and comment. God Bless!!
