Just an FYI... The unit can run off 110v OR 220v. That's why the mains connection is labeled L2/N. If using 220v then that terminal is L2, but if you're using 110v, then that terminal is neutral.

Great video. I'm having a house built with two separate HVAC systems, so builder is recommending two of these units at $2800 each, including installation. I'm considering installing them myself to save some cash. I installed an Aprilaire 760 on a previous house, which was not too difficult, so this one doesn't seem like a big climb. Your video is great, although I wish you had also included the steps for connecting the humidistat and all of the electrical connections. Thank you.

What you need is a power bank with, "pass-through charging" so it can receive a charge from the solar panel while also providing constant power to the Wyze camera. Understand, you need a power bank with enough power to sustain darkness, and also know that while the charging banks are connected to a solar panel AND charging a device, they charge-up at about 1/2 the speed as normal. This is to control heat; a battery that receiving energy AND sending energy will got hot very fast. So, what size mAH power bank do you need? Well, that's a complicated answer. Depends mostly on how much sunlight, and quality of sunlight you have as-well-as the size and capability of your panel knowing the Wyze cam only needs about 1W of power.
@VincentSmith17766 ай бұрын
Good info. And I agree. It's just that several years ago when I made this video the pass-through power banks were not as proliferate as they are now. Much easier to find today

The reason they don't use a wiring diagram like you suggest at 31:55 is because if a field technician is told to connect 240v to it but sees a diagram indicating terminals for L1/L2 and neutral, they may assume it's not compatible with 240v. The slash indicates either/or, never both. Any qualified tech should know not to connect a leg to neutral. Likewise, on your diagram, I'd know better than to connect both legs to the same terminal, but I'd be very apprehensive about connecting a leg to a terminal strictly marked neutral. The factory diagram tells me that it's compatible with both voltages, but I'd still use some critical thinking to check for any configuration differences and see if there's a transformer that needs different taps connected. Otherwise, great video.. definitely helped me out as an HVAC tech

Thank you for this very informative video! Answered a lot of questions for me. I have a houseful of neotropic exotic birds that require humidity and use the small hot mist units by Vicks. Nothing else has been as good but it gets tedious maintaining them and they only last about a year or two before they crack or need replacement. Have you noticed a hike in your water / energy bills? I am on the fence for installing because I’m unsure about generating an additional 1000 gallons of water/ month for this… we’re pretty conservative & see it would a luxury for the whole house to have humidity. It doesn’t sound very energy efficient having to run the fan blower around the clock. Right now the personal humidifiers only take up 2 gallons per day but I have to keep refilling them and then cleaning them out with vinegar mix once a week.
@VincentSmith17768 ай бұрын
We didn't see a "holy crap" change in our water use or electric use. Can't say they didn't go up, but not enough to notice. As for the blower, it doesn't use enough electricity to worry about. 90% of your electric bill is from resistive elements (stove, dryer, etc.) and compressors (AC, heat pump, refrigerator, etc.) Glad I can help.

Nice thorough review. I was interested to see that when you opened up the blade compartment yours had no sawdust or chips inside like mine did. Mine appeared to have factory wrapping so I thought maybe Dewalt tested them at the factory but it’s evident that isn’t true and I received a used unit. So I sent the damn thing back to Amazon. The bottom plate on mine had some minor scratches and a small divot which raised suspicion leading me to open up the unit up before using it. Lesson learned and warning to others…it might have been fine but it’s not worth the risk for saving ~$35.

Agreed. I once bought a DeWalt table saw from Amazon and it showed up with a hole all the way through it that look like it had been driven through with a forklift. I don't even know why the delivery guy left it on the porch. Pieces were falling out of the box up the sidewalk.

Everything is of course a personal choice, for everyday EDC I use the Streamlight Microstream USB. For work, I use Lumintop Tool AAA simply because it does not have a focused light, so it does not shine when I inspect the machines. I have both olight i3T and i5T, all lamps work without error. Of course, you always have to take into account where you live, some live in the countryside, some in the city, some need strong lumens, some don't. Although I have to admit that recently Lumintop Tool AAA has become my favorite light. I use Eneloop Pro in it and I am very satisfied
