I end up making my own master-slave switch to let power tool trigger the vacuum. Btw, do they have solo tool for the rotary hammers? I don't need so many battery and chargers. just found this thread. how did you get the power tool to trigger the slave vacuum? current detection method?

Got a couple to install. Since I only need a couple more tools to allow self install so I think why not. Can be used later to properly clean everything or do maintenance work. And no installer that i've ever paid has ever evacuated the gas line using a vacuum pump to remove air. All just force evac using the precharged gas.

armchair commando couch potato Senior Member 2,801 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Darul Aman	QUOTE(ozak @ Aug 5 2017, 09:48 AM) Why install the outdoor unit that high in your single storey house? Not difficult to maintenance ? I want it shaded from the sun. So install right under the roof overhang. Thought about maintenance issue. But only could lower it by 10-12 inch from current height. There's a window overhang underneath so can't go lower. Still able to vacuum and water jet the cooling fin on a ladder. I'm also using the longer bracket usually installed for 1.5 and 2hp units. About 4" longer than normal 1.0 bracket. Lots of clearance at the back for access. Needs new mounting holes drilled on the bracket tho. Good thing with having all the tools and ability to do it, is that I can move it anywhere in future if current location not suitable.

armchair commando couch potato Senior Member 2,801 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Darul Aman	a vacuum pump isn't exactly a power tool. making this the last power tool that i've purchased. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « can't justify spending >RM1k on stihl and husqvarna. more so for tools that i'm gonna sparingly use. tried those cheap china OEM and the quality are quite poor. so this is a compromise. nice power. lots of torque and good response. the anti-vibration damper works well. easy to start. etc etc. but downside is the weight. and unwieldy esp if you have to work on a ladder, have to climb a tree with it or up there inside the canopy cutting branches. 7kg and 18" blade are hard to work with in tight spaces. so went ahead and bought this to compliment. i was prepared for to have lower power. but this, this is too soft. much lower torque, much lower power. i personally won't use it to cut anything above 8" diameter. it even struggles to clear 6" branches.

armchair commando couch potato Senior Member 2,801 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Darul Aman	did this yesterday, in about 30 minutes. using an axe it'll take me all morning. and usually very tired after that. it's not for everyone, since not everyone lives in the jungle and/or have big trees to trim. most people would be content with a pair of pruning scissors. but please don't buy an electric chainsaw.

Can do some speed solder and heat shrink wire. Or do copper joint. Low setting High Setting Brought additional solder tip. Actually only need 1 type. But it come in a set. As high as 900+c. Solder tip temp. Can solder the battery fast without damage it. was considering that model previously. but since i do a lot of soldering, went with the solder instead. this pocket torch i use for small torching, shrink wraps and heating stuffs up. burning garbage and also as lighter. larger torching i use the butane cap directly on gas can.

armchair commando couch potato Senior Member 2,801 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Darul Aman	QUOTE(ozak @ Aug 10 2017, 08:10 PM) Initial think of the Dremel versatip too. But worry the torch fire power. Since I want 2 in 1 with higher flame torch. So decide get the bigger wan. And it have a larger tank. I already have a 18w solder iron. This is for bigger solder job. Have a bad experience with the butane gas solder iron others brand. Doesn't last long and it not hot enough. Throw away. Have such a small torch. 1 day it cannot light up. Dismantle and service. Still not work. Probably some dirt block the nozzle. End in rubbish bin I like this torch. It is my 2nd torch. If you want torch then you're correct in not getting the versatip. The torching power is quite low.

Ceramic heater temperature compensated tip is always better. But can't bring solder station everywhere, so this butane solder is for the times when you don't have an electric solder.

Lately playing a lot's with soldering..Just use normal solder not the station type.. Might buying 1, any recommendation? I'm programmer but lately have a need to have own hardware based on arduino. Seeing the freelancer soldering ATmega 328p, 28-pin chip.. So easy.. huhu.. Get a 30 or 40w hakko ceramic heater. Around rm100+ IINM. With the sharp pointed tip to make it easier soldering ic pin. Or 30w or 40w hakko or goot normal soldering iron. I think 30w or 40w should be enough. Long time didn't touch normal iron for years already.

armchair commando couch potato Senior Member 2,801 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Darul Aman	anyone got any lobang for cheap welders? thinking of buying these MIG welder. either this WIM Migweld 210s or this austech 2200 seen a few of workshops over here have the migweld 210s. good feedback from them. that is my first choice. a shop that sells both recommended the austech 2200 saying its built by WIM sister company. cheaper initial cost and cheaper parts. both are made in malaysia. i'd rather get in malaysia product than china made welders. kindda hit and miss with those cheap chinese models. tho a few friend running the JASIC multi-process welders and nothing breaks yet. any comments from lyn tools enthusiasts?

QUOTE(yushin @ Aug 25 2017, 06:14 PM) Welder arrr... Useful for home use? hahaha... Maybe can fix my sagging main gate. useful if you have the space and place to store the equipment and the raw material steel rods and tubings. most housing development wont have such feature but can build a small workshop area at the side of the house. some of my frens are doing this. provided you're in landed house with some land at the sides.
