Non Flashlight orders/received

As l posted earlier, l think OnePlus’ Dash charging is better for the battery than the usual lower rates. As l pointed out earlier, my battery gets more hot using the ‘normal’ rates than the Dash charging technology in my OnePlus.

l tried the lower, slower charging rates thinking it should be better but because the Dash charging technique has a special circuitry that routes back the heat to the psu, only the psu gets hot.

ln fact, l notice my battery’s performance is as good as when l first started using my phone, going into its 3rd year.

I like what I’m seeing. Notice that the battery was only 27.5 degrees C?. Just ordered the Dash car charger.

:+1:

One more personal technique of mine to prolong my battery’s cycle life is to avoid having the battery fully charged the whole night and instead just charge it the next morning instead since it doesn’t take long to charge it 80% using the oem Dash charging anyway.

It’s a well-known fact that a high SOC (state-of-charge) is detrimental to lithium-ions.
…and more detrimental is high heat situations.

Got a Dash car charger for my OnePlus 5T, and a new Watts kitchen sink filtered water faucet to replace my old leaky one.

Also just got a handheld laser distance meter from gearbest.

Didn’t you just recently order the distance gadget? How long did you wait?

Nice. That distance meter looks familiar. :slight_smile:

I ordered it January 20th. Received it today.

It’s your fault! lol! Actually, it’s really nice. Seems to be accurate so far.

Today I received a 15” enamelled Paella pan. It’s good for up to eight people. Receiving some guests next week, and Paella is on the menu. Just like with flashlights you really need to have this in your hands to understand the size of it. It’s just a really nice size, and can imagine looking all festive once it’s filled with beautiful yellow rice. I think it’s also nice that we can all share from one pan instead of two.

That’s awesome. I’ve got a 12.5” one, and I can only hit two people with it at once.

Wow… Big eaters. :smiley: I guess you need a decent appetizer and stuff for the 15” to be sufficient for eight people.

I wasn’t talking about eating. :slight_smile:

Whooaaa…. paella

Brave New World… But we can obtain all the ingredients right in our super market, and you can check out YouTube for a bunch of recipes… I mean how cool is that! :sunglasses: :beer:

This is a cool thread. Thanks for thinking of it atbglenn.

Thanks my friend :slight_smile:

Got a massdrop/ ferrum forge collaboration knife, the gent yesterday. S35vn flipper.

Yeh, got one of those, too.

Wonder hownahell ya use it… :smiley:

I remember the optical ones, like focussing an old-timey camera, just twist the thingy ’til the image halves line up, read the distance off the dial.

I bought it because it’s cool. I’m sure it will come in handy.

P.S. What I should have said basically, I’m a tool freak.
