Thanks for watching!

price was a big factor, but I also think the bauer line is good for most DIY folks, and I'm using this in the small jobsite sawls HF sells, and it is working great, so turned out to be a good decision - thanks for subscribing!

you need to turn on your wifi and get it working on your local network before trying remote, and you must connect the panel to your internet router with an ethernet cable, there are not many options for this, if local wifi does not work and you have an ethernet cable from the panel to you ISP router, not much else to try - thanks for subscribing!

does your display have a tone control? maybe try turning up the sound, tham might also bring up the tone, if not, try amplified speakers - thanks for subscribing!

Glad it was helpful!

I use this iron alot, and really like it, works great - thanks for subscribing!

this is a copy of a dremel saw back in the 1990, it works great - thanks for subscribing!

standard HF warranty, check their website for exact details, but 30 money back, 90 days warranty on the tool - thanks for subscribing!

I'm doing research on other cameras now, I know the HF camera will not work with our blue iris system, doesn't seem to be asking for dhcp, working finding out why

nope, works both ways - thanks for subscribing!

next steps - make sure your username is only 8 characters, make sure your wifi on your phone is on and get it working before leaving the house - still not working ? uPNP is not working to open the inbound network port - go to network screen, get the list of ports, call your ISP and have them open the ports - want longer directions? more info? read my reply to many similar questions in the comments - thanks for subscribing!

isn't that why everyone shops at HF?

do you see system initializing on the screen then it does blank? it this just started and you have not changed the display, it sounds like a weak power supply, try unhooking the cameras and restarting, this will significantly lower the power draw - you can also try starting up holding down the reset button (push button in the very tiny hole in the back, hold it until it resets to factory default, takes a lot longer than it should, so just keep holding it - first reset will be the admin password, second reset will be factory default - this might help, but I'm betting on the power supply being the issue, if it works without the camera, that is the problem, if not and factory reset also does not fix it, there is a power problem with the cameras or the POE hardward, really not much else to try...... the history leading up to the problem might give more clues, this just started all of a sudden with no warning? or was this the end of a few issues? power outage? brown -out ? thanks for subscribing!

I picked up 2 and very happy with them, thanks for subscribing!

several distributors put their brand on this model and resell it, that happens with a lot of HF tools, so it really comes down to availability and price - HF's new lathe has many sellers, but HF seems to be the cheapest, and I can get it local, so I did - thanks for subscribing!

Yes id like to know compatibility or video protocol used

going by the spec' in the manual, these are ONVIF compatible, but I took one of these cameras and added to a blue iris ONVIF system and the blue iris does not find the cameras, I'm going to do a network packet capture and see what the camera is doing when it gets power, I'm also going to attach an ONVIF camera that does work with blue iris to the HF system and see if it works, I'll post an update - not sure if they have discontinued the systems or just out of stock, I didn't see them in the disconnectinued items list, which is the normal path, and if HF has none in stock and non on a boat on its way here, they will drop from the website, and when they get stock again, they will reappear on the website - strange behavior overall - thanks for subscribing!

on this model there is an adjustment, but this model appeared briefly at HF and was gone - the current model does not have an adjustment - thanks for subscibing!

@snapwholeharborfreightreviews I meant to come back yesterday and correct myself. Thanks. I just bought one and saw that it was an purge redirect. 😳 Nice feature. I ran mine at around 50psi and it set the 2in brad right at the top under. All varies on our setups I imagine. Great info in the video, thanks again!

run the trimmer flat out and the self feed will work correctly - the line will not 'melf' if the line does not get a monkey knot (a winding that is supposed to be on top get under another winding that is supposed to be under the first winding) this happens when the line is put on the spool and then tension is released and then the is pulled tight again, had to avoid and requires practice to not let is release tension, but works as it should if you do not release the tension on the line, worst part of these problem is the preloaded spools HF sells come with the monkey knots already installed, so no help there - thanks for subscribing!

you have to really torque down on the screw, pretend you are trying to over tighten the screw, everytime I use this and the attachment comes loose, I re-tighten the screw and it stays on, summary - keep tightening the screw until it stays on, lots force required - thanks for subscribing!

I got rid of this saw a long time ago, I wanted the hercules, this is a good saw, just the hercules is better - thanks for subscribing!

any 3/8 inch bit or smaller will fit this drill, most popular is 1/4 inch bits, you should be able to find a kit of 20-50 for a good price, best to have a good variety - the blue bits I use are 6 inch long PH2 phillips bits, 1/4 inch shank - the blue is a plastic coating, I like the blue because they are more visible in the toolbox, I like the 6 inch bits because it keeps your hands away from the business end of the bit, I got 10 of them for $8 several years ago, highly recommend them, I slowly buying different ones as I find them, but they are not that common - thanks for subscribing!

harbor freight sells it (or used too) I bought it when I bought the auger, rarely use it, but most extenders should fit it as long as the shaft is the same size - thanks for subscribing!

I think you have to flex the plastic to get the two pieces to fit enough to get the screws installed, but it is possible you got the wrong screws -thanks for subsscribing!

only one power source can be connected to a drive at a time, I was swapping drives, testing different setups to see what was supported by the dvr, I was looking for a way to add a second harddrive, either internal or external - when I got to the point of making the video, that was the configuration I had, the power source is not important, the internal was working fine, I would recommend you reseat all the cables, and put your hand on top of the HDD while you turn on the dvr, you should feel the drive starting, it should be a smooth vibration, if it clicks, the drive is bad, if it is not powering up, the drive is bad, typically SATA drives are plug and play, if they don't come up and cables are fully seated, the drive is likely bad - try a different drive if you have one, and you can try the vibration test on the original drive for comparison, you can also switching the camera power supply with the camera power supply to see if that makes a difference, they are the same power supply, and i have seen the dvr power supply get 'weak' and not provide enough power, those are the things I would try - let me know how it goes - thanks for subscribing!

Thanks for sharing

black with springs? brushes for the motor, although I don't remember getting a spare set with my grinders, HF has many manufactures of these grinders so I'm not surprised it would be in some and not in some - thanks for subscribing!

​​​@@snapwholeharborfreightreviewsYeah I'm not sure what they're for. Little 1" long 1/4" wide springs with little black piece of plastic in the top. 2 of them. I lost the manual etc long ago. They were in a bag in the baggie with the wrench if I'm remembering correct.

your best bet at digital archival retrieval for harbor freight manuals is my website www.snapwhole.com - I have just about every HF manual, going back to 1990s, upto about 6 months ago, good search tool for the site makes them easy to search, I do a twice a year update of the manuals from HF's website, HF removes the manuals from the website when they discontinue products - thanks for subscribing!

good price, and glad you got it working, the pinless blades are much nicer - thanks for subscribing!

if you see the cameras but it goes on and off, switch the power adapters for the camera and the dvr, sounds like the dvr power supply is 'weak' - the output of the power supply is 12.2v, it is a regulated supply, some power supplies are labeled 12v, but are unregulated and are actually 16v and will likely burn up the dvr, so be careful if replacing - if you don't see the camera's on the screen, are you using hdmi or vga ? sounds like the display is not matching the video resolution setting, if vga, you'll need to try different settings on the display, I recommend 1080p, that should be the default setting for the vga output of the box, if using hdmi, you need a better hdmi cable, sounds strange, but true, I've seen that a few times, we changed the tv on this system from an older smart tv to a modern smart tv and had to replace the cable, post an update as a new message, I'll see it faster - I am interested in the outcome - more info would allow me to give a better recommendation, but I'm betting the power supply is weak, it is heating up and powering off, then cooling off and working again, I'm guessing a diode in the regulator in the power supply has a lower than normal breakdown voltage that is causing a power cycle, easy to fix if you are into electronics, otherwise it is not a user replaceable part

@snapwholeharborfreightreviews ive swapped and thanks to you I know to check voltage before ever turning on. That didn't seem to make difference. I've tried vga and hdmi and both ways worked prior to my hard drive getting full . I made sure setting was on auto loop and saved but still same. Question? I live in rural mississippi so wifi just became an option out here. Is it possible that the system needs a firmware or software update?

odd they dropped the case, they probably switched manufactures would be my guess - thanks for subscribing!

have you watched this video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ7QhIucjtelndU - since that video I've had videos for a lot of their new drivers, brushless included, and i have the hammer drill, I have a video of it too, but not posted yet - thanks for subscribing!

they are in short supply right now, I had to drive 1.5 hour round trip to an other harbor freight, they discontinued this model, painted it blue and re-released it for about the same price - I have 3 harbor freight stores within 20 miles of my house, still had to go to one a lot further away to find one - I am interested if you find one and what you think of it - thanks for subscribing!

the trimmer is made to run flat out all the time, that will regulate the self feed and you should not have that problem, I have 2 videos on this trimmer and fixing the issues with it, check my portland play list - thanks for subscribing!

glad the video helped you, this is a good saw overall, good for smaller projects or as a job site saw - thanks for subscribing!

yes it will, it is a good cordless drill, for $10 more you get the 18v, but this 12v will do just about anything the 18v will, just has a little less torq - thanks for subscribing!
