Kobalt Mower Battery Repair
Kobalt (Lowes brand) 40v Battery Pack Repair (4 minute video).
As many of you know, another hobby of mine is rebuilding dead tool battery packs. The replacement cells I use are Molicel's...a well known, high end 18650 battery that exceeds the specification of the OEM cells. 18650 designates the size and type of battery...but not the capacity. This Kobalt pack is 40 volt, 5 amp and has 20 of the 18650 batteries in it.
I was able to volt and load test each individual cell while the pack was assembled. This resulted in finding 2 dead cells and 2 weak cells. The plan was to replace all four of those with the Molicel brand batteries. Everything went back together well. Yea!
After charging the pack to capacity, we tested the rebuilt pack in the mower. Perfect! Thank you Jesus!
Also, below is a link to the spot welder I use for welding the battery packs.

Milk Kefir Processing

We have been doing (making and consuming) Milk Kefir for 14 years. For many people the process of managing and processing seems a bit daunting.

Trailmanor 3023 Plumbing Guard

This is a DIY plumbing guard for our Trailmanor Camper. This was a one-off design so I have no plans to offer. Every Trailmanor seems to have a different configuration on exactly where the plumbing is located.

    Wow! So good to get to see the process. Good idea to double up the tabs to carry the current = A clever work-around for the limitations of your welder. Idea = It seems to me that it might be helpful to have independent control over when the welder fires, instead of the one second delay. If we added a foot pedal, you could take all the time you wanted to use the probes to move and secure the tabs. Let me know of your interest.

      If the gas are electric elements are reaching proper operating temperature and the coolant is hot as it needs to be, then your problem is probably related to the actual coils not making proper contact with the cooling fins and such. This uses a thick heavy thermalastic to join the two together over time, that mastic will get dry, hard and crack and will no longer transfer the coal to the proper parts. Good luck!

    The most important thing about having that pressure weight set properly is, if you have it jumping around constantly, you take the risk of boiling your pressure cooker dry, which not only ruins the food, but can cause distortion in the pot that never goes back to normal once cooled off. The American Book of Pressure Cooking states very strictly to NEVER eat anything that was in a pressure CANNER that allowed itself to go BELOW the required pressure, even for a short time, you simply have to start over, that is how serious it is to lose your pressure...so start with a lot of heat and turn your pressure cooked DOWN until you get just what this video shows, 15 seconds and then and little " dance".

    Thanks for making this video, lots of good information. I've watched it 3 times already just to get my head around the procedure. I have an 07 with 265,000 Mi on it, I don't think anything has ever been done to the transmission. I'm assembling a parts list to get everything that I need. If I understand correctly, first thing I need is to drop the pan, and clean the filter or replace it, then get new gasket for the pan, then start the process you've detailed here. Toyota WS costs more than gold it seems, I may look into a different fluid brand, what do you recommend? I assume I don't need to remove fill plug using your method, I'd just need new drain and check valve bolts and crush washers?

    My heater turns on for 30 seconds and it blows cold then it shuts off. Can that be a thermostat as well?

    • @Flyboytr
      @Flyboytr 10 місяців тому

      Negative. Your thermostat is closing (turning on) the circuit that tells the heater to turn on. At first glance...it sounds like the "air SAIL SWITCH" is not operating properly. This switch simply gets pushed by the blowing air (coming from the fan) and makes contact. This connection is what allow the heater to continue to the lighting and heating function. If that switch is stuck open and not confirming that air is flowing, the heater will never light. Many times bugs (dirt dobbers/wasps) get inside and build a nest; if the nest blocks the sail switch the heater will never light. Do a search for a Sail Switch for your heater. There are UA-cam videos that cover this in detail. Good luck!

    That's pretty slick. The curtain material was a nice touch. The Butterfly likes the light coming in through the door window, but we aren't usually in the Southern latitudes or in the TM during the day. I was thinking of putting a curtain up similar to the rest of ours. I'll have to see if the boss is ready for it.

      Matt, Thanks! I prefer the light as well...except when the sun is hammering the right side of the camper. It has already made a big difference sitting in the driveway. Thankfully the panel is easy to remove and can store under a cushion or mattress. Hope y'all are doing well! We will be back on the road mid Sept and will be rolling for 2-3 months. Maybe we'll catch up along the way. I sent you a FB Friend Request.

    Great idea. We were in Orlando last month and I said to myself I’m going get some reflective insulation and put on the windows and vent before I come back to Florida. But I had no ideas for the door. Oh and I’m one of those that grabs the rubber strip to close the door.

      Thanks! We had previously added reflectix to the side bed area windows. That also helped a lot as well. Pulling on the rubber strip will eventually cause it to pull loose and tear. We have used the straps on this and our previous TM. Good Luck!

    Hey Travis. Thank you for the hood video, one question. As soon as I remove that check plug. If it stops leaking, does that mean I’m up to level?

      Yes. Vehicle MUST be level and the fluid around 110 degrees (that is best practice).
