Wonder who it could have been? [ Pointing to my younger self ] 🤐

[@gorak9000]

That's why they have 5 minute lockouts on the compressors now, so if the compressor was running and it stops, it won't restart for 5 minutes, allowing the pressures to equalize and ensuring the compressor will NOT lock up. It's not your fault the unit was shoddily designed... :)

If the problem recurs, I wonder if you could make an enhancement to send a controlled higher higher voltage surge to it to perhaps kickstart the motor if it has gotten a bit frozen. I know it's completely unrelated, but I'm thinking of an additional capacitor they added to my house outdoor A/C condenser unit to kickstart the compressor with more "umph," which they told me was a good thing. (I thought I may have gotten scammed but this additional capacitor is in the schematic of the unit as an optional component.)

[@werner.x]

Drop of oil at both bearings should do a better job. If this doesn't help - time for a replacement motor. Of course, dirt in the soap may have have caused this problem, then overvoltage may help crushing debris.

I tried to mix 1:10 or whatever they suggest for using hand soap in these and they always clogged up in the aerator foam generator thingy because the mixed soap always seemed to eventually form thicker regions. I switched to the foaming soap which is more expensive and you use more of it (because you don't dilute it) and I haven't had another dispenser clog on me.

And geeze, back in the '60s there was an American barber who made it to national TV a time or two because he cut hair using fire instead of scissors. Get with the times, YT!

[@mxslick50]

There are still videos of that technique on here....but let's attack a short where no harm was done (except for a bit of bear beard.) YT is out of control.

there are barbers using fire on videos on YT RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK.. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. ????????

Is it really beneficial to have decoupling capacitors for something powered by a battery? MLC capacitors always seem to be failures waiting to happen, so it feels like avoiding them wherever possible might extend product life.

[@bigclivedotcom]

Decoupling capacitors are needed to avoid the processor glitching due to tiny voltage transients caused by switched loads. The low value MLCCs are less troublesome than the higher value ones.

[@MetalheadAndNerd]

Batteries can have a high internal resistance or oxidized contacts, leading to voltage drops in everything that consumes power in pulses like digital electronics.

Welcome back. You were missed, sort of. If you'd hollered "Aloha Snackbar" as you ignited yourself, you would have not got the strike. All the best from Namibia.

Or such a parody would offend a Middle Eastern terrorist group that would complain and have it taken down as severe abuse.

Motor "fix" reminds me of tapping on a car's starter motor with a hammer, or hitting the outside of a car's fuel tank to get the fuel pump motor to move just a little bit. Glad you're back!

Banned for uploading a short.....oh the irony

[@780brando]

dead fuel pumps(automotive) will also work enough to drive the vehicle in with 2x the voltage, usually. love your channel Clive

Sorry for your injury. I thought it looked like a leaf raking blister.
