2024.05.19 17:02 Craig_Dubya E-trike Advantages and Disadvantages
https://preview.redd.it/ljp39ehbee1d1.jpg?width=2093&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f27ddb6d1ca20cb5949a79050027d8f0c605fca submitted by Craig_Dubya to Etrikes_Ebikes [link] [comments] f you are new to the world of e-triking and considering your first purchase, the advantages vs disadvantages of e-trikes is an important topic. What disadvantages will be experienced if I choose to get an e-trike rather than a “”normal” trike? The positives are many…more efficient exercise, hill-climbing power, plus great speed for crossing busy intersections. And don’t forget ease of use for people who suffer with arthritic knees, sore backs, degrading hips, etc. But what about the negatives e-trike ownership? Advantages vs Disadvantages of E-trikes Most e-trike riders are enthusiastic about the advantages of their electric vehicles. It’s also important to be aware of the disadvantages. Let’s take a closer look at those few disadvantages worth mentioning: weight, price, range, and maintenance. Weight They are big and beautiful, and in general, e-trikes are heavier than conventional tricycles of the same size. A 20″ e-trike similar to the Mooncool TK1 Fat Tire pictured above can weigh upwards of 90 pounds. If handling that much weight is difficult for you, then you might have to get creative with some details of e-triking. For example, if you expect to transport the trike, make sure you have a plan for loading it onto a vehicle. Be wary of e-trikes that weigh less than 80 pounds. Unfortunately, this type of e-trike normally has much less motor power and a less capable battery. Also, it is often more expensive. Mooncool e-trikes provide greater stability, traction, power, range, and comfort. That additional comfort, power, and safety means greater weight is a necessity. You can’t have the combination of a sturdy frame, powerful motor, and long-lasting battery without the accompanying weight. Price The ancient adage “you get what you pay for” can certainly be applied to e-trikes. To get all the advantages that come with a high-powered motor, strong battery, and comfortable fat tires — well, we have to dig a little deeper into the wallet. The very things that we love the most about e-trikes, including the amazing fuel economy, are the same things that add substantially to the price! The Big Bucks Components Motor Battery Brakes These three items account for a significant portion of the increase in price as compared to buying a conventional tricycle. The electric motor, preferably at least 500 watts, ads $350 – $500 to the price you pay for your e-trike. A decent battery adds $500-$900 — varying with size, quality, volts and amp hours. The heavier weight of an e-trike makes disk brakes very advisable…either mechanical or hydraulic. And that will add another $50 – $250 to the cost of your e-trike. A little quick addition tells you an e-trike can easily cost $1000 more than a conventional tricycle of similar quality. But what a difference! That $1000 expense makes cycling possible for many people who thought they would never ride again. This would not be possible without the assistance of a motorized tricycle. Range Naturally, everyone wants an e-trike that can handle a long ride. Technology will eventually catch up with demand. Sadly, at the moment, we must be satisfied with lesser ranges. It is possible to configure your e-trike for carrying two batteries (also more expensive). Without 2 batteries, you can forget about riding more than 40-50 miles on a single battery charge. If you are not content with a 40-50 mile range, then range must be considered a disadvantage. On the positive side, many riders find that they rarely have the need or desire to travel more than 20-30 miles on one ride. On average, with light-to-medium pedaling, most e-trikes can achieve a range of at least 30-50 miles. Also of real importance, range varies from person to person. It is vastly affected by terrain, wind, tire pressure, and rider weight plus gear weight. If you are a commuter, an e-trike may well be a great solution to rising fuel prices. A 30-mile round trip could cost you $3-$6 in gasoline. The same trip will require only 4 cents in electrical costs for riding your e-trike. Every time you make a quick trip to the local grocer, that’s another $2-$3 saved in fuel expense. Over time, it adds up to a substantial savings! Maintenance Owning an e-trike is a significant investment in better health, exercise, and enjoyment. Certainly, it follows that good maintenance is important. As noted above, motors can be expensive, and so can motor repair. Tires, battery, chain, frame, brakes…it all requires good maintenance habits. Indeed, an annual trip to a local bike shop is a good idea, just to ensure you haven’t overlooked anything. Perhaps the most important consideration for your e-trike is safety–your personal safety as a rider. Of course, that makes regular and careful maintenance a priority for every e-trike owner. https://preview.redd.it/g5gs5c7gee1d1.jpg?width=1827&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2fe27dc6863d0146b9ce390c14d7630451e88061 So there you have it–weight, price, range, and maintenance. All four are very important, and all four require extra expense for both the manufacturer and the consumer. Taking all that into consideration, here’s the big question: All in All, do I Want an E-trike? For most riders, the answer is an unequivocal “Yes!” The pleasures of e-biking are phenomenal, and the fuel savings are quite significant, accumulating quickly. Then, when you consider the health benefits, the pendulum swings far in favor of e-triking. Additionally, many physically challenged people find that an e-trike makes all the difference. Suddenly, they can once again enjoy outdoor cycling, even as they gain in strength and flexibility. Senior adults who thought they would never enjoy any sport again are now riding e-trikes daily! Of course, for those with balancing problems, riding on 3 wheels instead of 2 wheels makes cycling possible again! Lowering the Price Barrier Mooncool has a strong commitment to customer support. That commitment includes providing a high-quality electric trike at the lowest possible price point. Etrike shoppers will quickly recognize that choosing Mooncool is a sound financial decision.

Quantum Leap: History of Vacheron Constantin Calendar Watches Part 3.3 submitted by Timeset_VC to VACHERONISTAS [link] [comments] by Alex Ghotbi, 12th of December 2011, 11:03 - click on scans for larger view Malte Perpetual Calendar Minute Repeater In 2006 Cal 1755QP (as for Quantième Perpetuel – perpetual calendar in French) was used in the now defunct round shaped Malte (41mm case) in rose gold giving it a more modern and masculine look. In 2010 the last 8 Cal 1755QPs were cased in a round Malte case but this time in platinum. https://preview.redd.it/iybdrxc2ae1d1.jpg?width=895&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b4c6a0701f7f91213de80f606f02a555220a8ba https://preview.redd.it/63g7qdncae1d1.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f74c8580ad38cf8d277922bf194c0628a1aba74f https://preview.redd.it/w2y0wqcfae1d1.jpg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=42839f07fd683a72674cb7855bf5cf429de8adb7 Malte Perpetual Calendar Chronograph Collection Excellence Platine Normally, the Excellence Platine collection consists of platinum case and dial versions of existing models however this version launched in 2007 is a one shot as it did not exist as a regular production model making it even more rare and desirable! Made in only 50 pieces it houses the manual wind cal 1141QP. https://preview.redd.it/wfk1h6uxae1d1.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1f0180121cfc465ca91d04232cc8618bdd98ed18 https://preview.redd.it/qi4db5uxae1d1.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ec21eb085a568f63ee05a9df26f4def2759fb63 https://preview.redd.it/uktjn3uxae1d1.jpg?width=1321&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26a2b9d3e065e3a349dd44f933850feedde26989 Patrimony Traditionnelle Calibre 2755 Presented in 2007 the Patrimony Traditionnelle Caliber 2755 (how’s that as a dry name for such an amazing watch?) is currently Vacheron Constantins most complicated timepiece (610 components). However, it’s just not “just” a perpetual calendar, tourbillon minute repeater but the greatest sounding repeater I have ever heard thanks to a centripetal speed-regulator in the striking-mechanism, an original device which eliminates the noise interference normally experienced with pallet systems (the bzzz often heard when the repeating mechanism is activated). As with the ref 30020 and 30040 the case has been carefully designed and manufactured to give the minute repeater a remarkable resonance, which is optimised by the ingenious use of a stud linking the case to the striking mechanism. And, thanks to its high copper content, which gives it its colour, the pink gold case adds to the quality of resonance. In 2010 the Cal 2755 was also launched in platinum with an opaline and a slate grey dial, the later having an even more contemporary look. Normally platinum is a metal which “absorbs” the chimes but the watchmakers at Vacheron Constantin have done a fantastic job and the chimes are almost as loud and pure as in the rose gold version. I have to admit that the Cal 2755 has the most amazing chime I have ever come across (a close second being the Patek Sky Moon tourbillon), the first time I heard it, it was in a room with people talking and music in the background and still the chimes could be perfectly heard. The Cal 2755 for me is a condensed representation of what Vacheron Constantin is: a beautiful design which is classical yet with a twist, perfect proportions, technical mastery and drop dead amazing movement finish. Techniques have not been sacrificed for design and there is no compromise in the design for the sake of techniques The cal 2755 is assembled from A to Z by the same watchmaker who also tunes the gongs (by filing away on the base of the gongs) to achieve the perfect chime. As Chrystian Lefrançois, master watchmaker at Vacheron Constantin says “achieving the perfect chime is extremely difficult as you need to adjust the gong by filing the metal and at one point you know that you have reached the best possible sound and one file too much and you go from the best chime to the dull sound of a spoon hitting a pot!” About less than one Patrimony Traditionnelle Cal 2755 come out of the ateliers of Vacheron Constantin per month, considering that it can take 3-4 months to fine tune and assemble. It exists in rose gold and platinum (with opaline or slate grey dials), a limited edition with a gorgeous chocolate dial was made for Parisian retailer Dubail as well as a pièce unique for the New York Boutique. https://preview.redd.it/6gategfabe1d1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5470cafa19d2ad2c97870312376143ac93a86bf9 https://preview.redd.it/a3ob6jfabe1d1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0fcc38356a9cef2609865bee14d7dc2b7deb4347 centrepetal regulator https://preview.redd.it/1h66583tbe1d1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8556826210034e6c841b23bf0164be26af44da35 https://preview.redd.it/wzk5c33tbe1d1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8b21b489e1f730a3ca8599b6863d5229b5b89622 Dubail New York Boutique https://preview.redd.it/pg11n1l3ce1d1.jpg?width=590&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a088c0f3f9d03cf242fa22788c24be79610769a4 click for video Metiers d'Art: Les Masques Rarely have the words art and masterpiece been used so correctly. My first reaction to this collection was the same as being thunderstruck: breathless, speechless, heart beating fast and wobbly knees! It’s hard to define the divine but you can recognize it when you see it and for me the hands of the gods guided the designers at Vacheron Constantin to create such original, bold and daring pieces. At an epoch where originality resides in the use of carbon fibber and black PVD or the most improbable partnership with cars, motor cycles and boats Vacheron Constantin opened a whole new untreaded path where art and horology met. The concept was to use an art form still little known to the general public: the so called primitive arts. Geneva has the chance of housing one of the most prestigious collections of primitive arts: the Barbie-Muller Museum and collaboration between the museum and Vacheron seemed therefore unavoidable. The museum lent a certain number of pieces to Vacheron for replication but the great difficulty resided maintaining the proportions in a miniature version. Different techniques were tried but the final results were unsatisfactory. Vacheron Constantin finally turned to the Geneva Engineering School for help in making a three-dimensional image of each mask. By putting the plans together on a computer, they were able to modify the volumes point by point and find the best angle for fitting the whole mask into the case while safeguarding the harmony of its forms. It was thanks to the magic of laser technology that the miniaturisation of the masks became possible. The time is read by means of four discs indicating the hours, minutes, days and date in windows. A clever technique using transparency and specially-treated glass creates the impression that the masks are floating. Each sapphire crystal has a different tint, obtained by a unique metallisation process, so that it sets off the colour of the mask. Michel Butor’s (a contemporary French poet) short poems dedicated to each mask circle the sapphire dial in letters of gold and can only be read when the light strikes it from a certain angle. This effect is achieved by vacuum metallisation, a sophisticated technological process in which the gold letters are sprayed onto a sapphire crystal. The effect is amazing and depending on the inclination of the wrist the sapphire crystals hues vary as well as the coloring of the letters. There is such subtility and depth in the dial that you can almost drown in it and spend hours just staring at it mesmerised by its sheer beauty. This series launched in 2007 consisted of 25 sets of 4 watches each. A new set was also launched in 2008 and 2009.

Reviews🔗Galco Gunleather Ruger Wrangler Holster and Belthttps://preview.redd.it/j2i9vhv27d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0d7d9f33407b54daf2f722fab4e3b38c1a2f610 As a seasoned range-goer, I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Galco Gunleather Ruger Wrangler Cartridge Belt. This belt not only adds a touch of retro charm to my gear but also provides a functional solution to my ammo needs. The stearhide belt strap with. 22-caliber cartridge loops caught my eye right away. It effortlessly accommodates my Wrangler Holster, making it easy to reload on the go. The brass buckle adds a classic touch, giving it an authentic Western vibe that I love. However, one downside I noticed was the belt length. At 34 inches, it was a bit too long for my preference, and I had to adjust it before heading to the range. Also, the holster is sold separately, which means you'll need to purchase it separately to complete your setup. Overall, despite the minor inconvenience of the belt length and the need for a separate holster purchase, the Galco Gunleather Ruger Wrangler Cartridge Belt has become a staple in my range bag. It combines style and functionality in a way that truly makes me feel like I'm carrying a piece of the American frontier with me. 🔗Cartridge Looped Western Embossed Leather Belthttps://preview.redd.it/k4r3lz937d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b19c7f7c256e9491d895167eb6593dc2af1fefc I recently had the opportunity to try out the Hunter Company Embossed Cowboy Belt with 45 Caliber Cartridge Loops. It has an air of authenticity to it with its chestnut tan color and contrasting leather billets. This belt, designed for that classic western aesthetic, has held up well to my daily wear and tear. One of the best features of this belt is its versatility, especially with its three available sizes - Large and XLarge having a perfect fit. I was able to store a good amount of 45 caliber ammunition in its cartridge loops too! However, the lack of availability in various colors and the absence of additional measurements might prove inconvenient for some users. The price also seems a bit higher, considering it's made from full-grain leather. Overall, the American Full-Grain Leather Embossed Cowboy Belt is a sturdy, classic choice for western-style holster carry and shooting activities. It checks all the right boxes when it comes to durability and western aesthetics. But just a note, there's room for improvement on the customizability aspect. 🔗Samsung Original Cartridge Belt for Easy Printinghttps://preview.redd.it/xvmd8mk37d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=86ebc24c4410bf88ea015254492b09db935bbc10 I recently tried this Samsung Transfer Cartridge Belt Unit, or JC96-05874B. It's an essential accessory for keeping your prints squeaky clean and of excellent quality. It seamlessly moves the paper from the toner-covered drum to the fuser unit, where it gets heated and sealed. One of my worries was that I might have to replace it frequently due to poor quality, but I was pleasantly surprised by how it held up. The belt unit can be stored for up to 6 months without any degradation in performance. It's also straightforward to install and use. However, I did run into a minor issue with compatibility - I had to update my printer software to make it work properly, but once that was sorted, it was smooth sailing. Overall, the JC96-05874B is a reliable and time-tested product by Samsung that's worth investing in if you want consistent high-quality prints. 🔗Rotary 13241 Torque Converter Belt for Comet Go Cartshttps://preview.redd.it/qhp4fyw37d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=88bed8e96b60f76635471d7766a540dafbb4b870 When I first got my hands on the Rotary Torque Converter Belt, I was initially impressed by how sleek and sturdy it looked. The belt itself is flexible, and it fits perfectly into the engine compartment with ease. Its flat side installs towards the engine, providing a snug fit that ensures a smooth operation. What stood out to me was the design of the belt. The 5/8-inch top width is asymmetric, with a flat side on one end and a slightly angled side on the other. This feature ensures that it's compatible with go carts featuring Comet clutch drives and using belt number 200393 (A, B, or C). My experience with the belt has been largely positive. However, I did find that the installation process could be slightly more straightforward for beginners. It might take a bit of trial and error to get it right, but once it was in place, it worked like a charm. In conclusion, the Rotary Torque Converter Belt is a reliable and efficient solution for those looking to replace their existing belt in go carts. Although it requires a bit of effort to install, it boasts impressive performance and compatibility, making it a great choice for both casual and professional users. 🔗Quiet and High-Performance Poly-V Cartridge Belt for Mitsubishi Modelshttps://preview.redd.it/c5dzzwb47d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=67125057f08e7a540a61844b16c0dbc5cc7ddf48 I discovered Continental Elite's Poly-V / Serpentine Belt when I was facing an issue with the belt on my car. I had heard about the brand's reputation for durability and performance, so I thought giving it a try would be worth it. Let me share my experience. When I first installed the belt, I was amazed by how smooth and quiet it ran. The Quiet Channel Technology did its job, eliminating any unwanted noises. The staggered "helicog" profile, combined with the rubber compounds, made a significant difference in my daily drive. Moreover, the belt's flexibility improved its resistance to wear and tear, making it last longer. One of the features I appreciated the most was the polyester tension member. Its treatment reduced elongation, and it worked well with automatic tensioners. The sturdiness of the belt was evident, providing me with confidence in its reliability. However, I had a minor concern. While the belt was easy to install, I found it a bit fiddly at times. The instructions could have been more detailed, making the process less daunting. Additionally, I noticed that the belt wasn't as compatible with some vehicles as I had hoped. I had to go to two different stores to find the right size, which was quite frustrating. In conclusion, I can say that Continental Elite's Poly-V / Serpentine Belt is an excellent product. It offers great performance and durability, and it's quieter than many other alternatives. Despite the minor issues I encountered, I will definitely consider using this belt in the future, and I recommend it to anyone seeking a reliable and efficient serpentine belt. 🔗HP High-Quality Cartridge Belt for Printer Upkeephttps://preview.redd.it/1j5tovm47d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=11b5f39c9722bd3d5373321b3d3e409f917a1dfd The HP C7791-60233-OEM cartridge belt is a must-have for electronics enthusiasts who love to add the latest gadgets to their collection.

One feature that stood out to me is its universal compatibility with several models, including 120, 130, and 100 cartridges. This means I can easily switch between devices without worrying about compatibility issues. However, the belt can be a bit tight, which might cause discomfort during longer usage. As a solution, I'd recommend taking a few minutes to adjust it before each use. In conclusion, this cartridge belt has proven to be a reliable and convenient accessory, making it a great addition to any electronics enthusiast's collection. 🔗Heavy-Duty Relubricatable Flange Cartridge Belthttps://preview.redd.it/r0fwgjx47d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=479ea202b09f52408164d76975c05849491bf829 I recently had the opportunity to use the Link-Belt FCU347 Flange Cartridge Unit, and it exceeded my expectations. The heavy-duty bearing unit's cast iron housing and four bolt holes provided an impressive amount of stability and rigidity. The one-piece housing made of cast iron also helped in vibration damping, which was perfect for my industrial application. One feature that I particularly loved was the powder-coated finish, as it offered excellent corrosion resistance. Moreover, the grease fitting on the outer surface allowed me to reapply lubricant easily, ensuring smooth operation. However, there was one minor downside - the non-expansion property limited the applicability for some situations. Nonetheless, in my case, it wasn't a big problem. Overall, the Link-Belt FCU347 Flange Cartridge Unit proved to be reliable and effective in my daily life, demonstrating its value in industrial and commercial applications. 🔗High-Quality Aramid Fiber Red Belt for Universal Usehttps://preview.redd.it/vut7hlk57d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=af35f13ff42b426c9d7be111d39b8910c7b224a4 I've been using this Rotary Aramid Belt 5/8" x 140" for some time now, and it's been a game-changer for my daily tasks. The belt is designed to be super durable, making it perfect for high-wear applications. My favorite part about it is that it's universal, fitting a wide range of machines, including large motorized trimmers. One of the standout features of this belt is its Aramid fiber material, which adds an extra layer of protection and strength. Additionally, the size and dimensions of the belt are highly convenient, measuring 5/8" x 140" and replacing the OEM Carlisle 9-3452. I appreciate that it's available in multiple quantities, with 25 cases and 12 pallets available. However, one downside I've noticed is that it can be a bit difficult to store due to its size. Nonetheless, the pros of this belt definitely outweigh the cons, and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable, long-lasting cartridge belt. Buyer's GuideA cartridge belt is a crucial accessory for many outdoor activities and shooting sports. It provides a convenient way to store and carry ammunition, allowing for quick and easy reloading. When choosing a cartridge belt, it's essential to consider several factors such as the type of ammunition you'll be carrying, the environment where you'll be using it, and your personal preferences. This buyer's guide will provide you with the necessary information to make an informed decision when purchasing a cartridge belt.Compatibility with Ammunitionhttps://preview.redd.it/1mbkdlm57d1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2920e3660b0edd38ee1a0b57aa36ab6514bb57a3 Cartridge belts are designed to accommodate specific types of ammunition, so it's essential to choose a belt that matches the rounds you'll be carrying. Commonly available cartridge belts are designed for pistol calibers, shotgun shells, or rifle cartridges. Always verify that the ammunition you plan to use is compatible with the cartridge belt before making a purchase. Material and ConstructionCartridge belts come in various materials, including nylon, leather, and polymer. Each material has its pros and cons. Nylon belts are lightweight, durable, and easy to clean. They are ideal for outdoor use in wet and humid environments. Leather belts are more classic and have a natural look, but they tend to be more expensive and require proper care to maintain their condition. Polymer belts are lightweight and resistant to water, making them a good choice for outdoor activities in harsh conditions. Choose a belt with sturdy construction that offers a secure fit and can withstand the rigors of regular use.Weight DistributionA well-designed cartridge belt should distribute the weight of ammunition evenly across your waist.

The Top 8 Best Car Covers for Snow
Reviews🔗Breathable Gray Lightweight Car Cover for Snowhttps://preview.redd.it/3sb4jepzmb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=932dcf0f506db0e80819d7fd7bceb9769919127e I recently purchased the Budge Lite Car Cover, and I have to say, it's been a game-changer for me. First off, the material is super lightweight and breathable, which means my car doesn't get all stuffy under there. Plus, it's easy to handle and store when I'm not using it. One thing that really stood out to me is how well it fits my car. The elastic hem ensures a snug fit, so even on a windy day, it stays put. And speaking of wind, the antenna patch is a nice touch that keeps my antenna safe and sound. Now, let's talk about some drawbacks. While the cover does a decent job of keeping most things like dust and leaves off my car, it's not entirely waterproof. After a rain, I noticed some water seeping in, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this Budge Lite Car Cover. It's lightweight, easy to handle, and provides a nice snug fit for my car. If you're looking for something to protect your vehicle from the elements, this might just be the perfect cover for you. 🔗Universal Fit Car Windshield Snow Cover and Side Mirror Covershttps://preview.redd.it/f6d5x240nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=285410d0828db6e6deb04f87d3caa99d69b762d1 I recently tried the Asz Car Windshield Cover for Ice and Snow, and I have to say, it made my winters so much more convenient. The thickened material is excellent at keeping out snow and ice, and I love that it comes with side mirror covers for added protection. The magnetic embedded design means it's super easy to put on and take off, which is a game-changer when I'm in a hurry. However, one minor issue is that it's a little bulky, so it's not the most space-efficient option out there. Overall, I highly recommend the Asz Car Windshield Cover for anyone looking to simplify their winter mornings! . 🔗All-Weather Heavy Duty Car Cover for Sedanshttps://preview.redd.it/tzpw7sl0nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=129bb66cdaf87d2c75f1775f74081db2f1a7e0d1 Last fall, I got my hands on the Armor All Heavy Duty Premium Car Cover for my sedan, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. The first thing that caught my attention was its promise of all-weather protection. Living in a region with unpredictable weather, this was a godsend! The cover's heavy-duty material and strong stitching have indeed safeguarded my car against various unpredictable conditions, from sudden downpours to blistering sun. One feature that stood out was the cover's breathable material. I was concerned about moisture buildup causing mold and mildew on my vehicle's finish. However, the Armor All cover has proven effective in preventing such issues, making it worth every penny. Additionally, the cover's 6-point high wind protection system ensures that it stays in place during stormy days, providing me with a peace of mind I never had with my previous covers. However, there is a small con. The cover can be cumbersome to carry around due to its size and weight. A built-in storage bag or a slightly lighter design would have been a great addition. Despite this downside, I find the Armor All Heavy Duty Premium Car Cover to be an excellent investment for any car owner who values their vehicle's appearance and needs dependable protection against harsh weather elements. 🔗Budge Lite Car Cover for Sedans Up to 16'8https://preview.redd.it/1lelklw0nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fef3706a6bdc7c67ccf50471a0e55a0fecc9a7ed I can't stress enough how crucial it is to protect your car from the elements, and the Budge Lite Car Cover has been a lifesaver in this regard. As someone who keeps their vehicle in a garage with a metal roof, I know all too well how dust, soot, and debris can accumulate and cause damage to a car's finish. I've been using this cover for over five years on multiple cars, and it's been a game-changer. I've been amazed at how effectively it keeps my car clean and dust-free, even in a very dirty environment. The key to keeping my cars in pristine condition is constant maintenance and proper storage. I make sure to cover my vehicle each time I park it, and I've found that the Budge Lite Car Cover is the perfect solution for my needs. The single layer of polypropylene is lightweight and easy to use, making it an ideal choice for indoor storage and occasional outdoor usage against dust, dirt, and debris. One of the standout features of this car cover is its breathability. Constructed with a single layer of polypropylene, the Budge Lite Cover allows air to circulate, which helps to reduce condensation. This is particularly important for preventing mold and mildew from forming on your car's surfaces. Additionally, the elasticized hem and built-in grommets secure the cover all-year round, ensuring that it stays in place even during strong winds. I've also used the car cover outside on weekends or for temporary coverings, and I've been impressed with its ability to keep my car dry and spotless, even in heavy rainstorms. The water just beads up and rolls off, which is a testament to the quality of the material. However, I will say that the fit can vary since it's a universal cover, so sometimes it might be too tight or too loose, depending on your car's size and shape. And despite being lightweight and easy to clean with just a hose, some users may find that the lack of a soft inner lining can catch dust and other debris, which could scratch your car's finish. Overall, the Budge Lite Car Cover is a fantastic product that's perfect for indoor storage and occasional outdoor use. Its lightweight design and breathability make it a great choice for keeping your car clean and protected from the elements, and the additional features, like the elasticized hem and built-in grommets, make it a secure and user-friendly option. At its budget-friendly price point, this car cover is a no-brainer for anyone looking to protect their vehicle from dust, debris, and damage. 🔗High Quality 3-Layer Car Cover with UV Protectionhttps://preview.redd.it/ovqoqjf1nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ccd5246809f4cb664c243f5bfacca4520b4cf00 I recently purchased the Leader Accessories Car Cover for my vehicle, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations. The three-layer fabric is incredibly breathable, providing excellent air circulation which has helped to keep my car dry and free from moisture damage. One feature that truly stands out is the UV protection it offers, ensuring my vehicle's paint remains safe from those harmful sunrays. Additionally, the elastic hem provides a snug fit, keeping the cover in place even during windy conditions due to its attached strap and buckle. However, despite its many great qualities, I found that the cover doesn't seem to offer much resistance to dust. Nonetheless, the package it comes in is convenient and includes an easy-to-use storage bag. Overall, I would highly recommend the Leader Accessories Car Cover, especially for those seeking a reliable, well-fitting cover with outstanding UV protection! 🔗Durable All-Weather Car Cover with Door Zipper & Reflective Stripeshttps://preview.redd.it/9q8exfq1nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d6c9c2652918a821704adb6cb2015d24e32b6759 I recently stumbled upon the Nilight Waterproof Car Cover and decided to give it a shot. What caught my eye was its premium 210T Oxford cloth, which I can confirm is both lightweight and incredibly durable. The fabric is waterproof, heat insulating, and breathable, making it perfect for all weather conditions. One feature that stood out is the unique door zipper on the driver's side - it allows me quick and convenient access to my car without having to remove the entire cover. Additionally, the windproof straps and elastic hem help keep the cover snug even in strong winds, and the combination lock offers added security. One downside I noticed is that while the reflective stripes are great for visibility at night, they can be a bit overly bright and reflective during the day when you're driving. Overall, this all-weather car cover has done a great job protecting my car from the elements, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, reliable solution to keep their vehicle clean and safe from the elements. 🔗Favoto Waterproof All-Weather Sedan Car Coverhttps://preview.redd.it/uaklsf42nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8952a02b07290c0a20c8e1224a77a2ca4059fb18 I want to talk about my car cover experience, especially with the Favoto All-Weather Sedan Car Cover. As a car owner, I've learned the importance of protecting my vehicle from the harsh elements, both natural and man-made. The Favoto cover has been a game-changer for me. Firstly, the driver's side zipper design is such a convenience. It makes getting in and out of the car a breeze, even when it's covered. The night reflection stripes are an added bonus - they make sure my car's contour is visible even in the dark, reducing the risk of accidents. The Favoto cover is made of heavy-duty, 5-layer material that's both durable and waterproof. The cotton lining ensures no scratches on my car's paint. Unlike some other covers made of PE and PEVA, this one won't tear easily. The best part? This cover provides comprehensive protection against all types of weather elements, from dust and snow to acid rain, bird droppings, and even pollution. And let's not forget about securing it - the elasticated edge along with the 4 securing straps under the car keep it in place, even on windy days. In the real world, your car can face potential damages from weather, animals, and even people. Car covers like this one are a great investment to keep your car safe and sound. The Favoto All-Weather Sedan Car Cover offers excellent protection against all these threats. And finally, I must mention how easy it is to store and carry this cover. It folds neatly into its storage bag and doesn't take up much space. This makes it perfect for those times when you need to take your cover with you. In conclusion, if you're looking for a high-quality, all-weather car cover that's easy to use and provides complete protection, the Favoto All-Weather Sedan Car Cover is definitely worth considering. 🔗Motor Trend Snow-Proof Car Cover with Storage Bag and Lockhttps://preview.redd.it/1p5kduo2nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=190fce66b0c3d35b99185416c27c2c2085a3b8e1 I recently got my hands on the Motor Trend All Season Weatherwear 1-Poly Layer Snow Proof, Water Resistant Car Cover Size XL1 - Fits Up to 210". Having a car that's subjected to harsh weather conditions, I was in need of something that could offer protection and durability. Since trying it out, I must say I am pleasantly surprised. This cover has an extra durable polyester construction which indeed stands up well against various elements including snow, dust, wind, UV rays, and even minor scratchings. Not to mention, it also keeps the interior cool on sunny days. It even comes with a free storage bag and lock, which is a nice addition. However, on the flip side, the material seems to be quite thin despite its claims. This might be a concern in areas with extreme wind conditions as it could potentially tear. Additionally, although the elastic hem at the bottom provides a snug fit, I found it a bit of a struggle to put on and remove. In conclusion, the Motor Trend All Season Weatherwear Car Cover is a great option for those in search of an affordable, all-season car cover. While it may not be the most robust option out there, it gets the job done in terms of protecting your vehicle from most common weather conditions.

https://preview.redd.it/nyp6qih3nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6b9ad2f38befdb40926e7d73d69a23e08c7ab389 FAQ1. What are the benefits of using a car cover in the snow?Car covers provide protection against snow, ice, and harsh winter elements, preventing damage to your vehicle's paint, windows, and other components. They also keep your car warm and dry, save time on defrosting or scraping ice, and help maintain your vehicle's value and appearance.2. How do car covers help in removing snow?https://preview.redd.it/paa1rxs3nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8ca1cb7d978070cd52c41efdff6183ee35f81259 Car covers prevent snow from accumulating on your vehicle, which means there's less snow to remove when you use the cover. It's generally easier and quicker to brush off a car cover than to scrape ice off your vehicle's surface. 3. How do I choose the right car cover for my vehicle?In addition to fit, consider factors like material, thickness, waterproofing, UV protection, and ease of use. Some covers are more durable, better at shedding water, or easier to put on and take off. You may also want to consider options with added features like integrated straps and grommets for enhanced security.4. What materials are best for winter car covers?Look for materials that offer good waterproofing and insulation, as well as resistance to UV damage. Common materials for car covers include polyester, polypropylene, and polyethylene. Some higher-end covers may also incorporate layers of microfiber or fleece for added insulation and protection. https://preview.redd.it/v9jt7af4nb1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=28f81788a633f31452570e59e3bc750c2b33d92c 5. How do I install a car cover for snow protection?Before installing the cover, clear your vehicle of snow and ice. Place the cover over your car, making sure it covers all necessary areas (including the roof, windows, and mirrors). Secure the cover by using built-in straps, grommets, or clips provided with the cover. Make sure all edges are snug and free of gaps to ensure the best protection from snow and ice.6. Can car covers be used for long-term storage in cold weather?Yes, car covers can be used to protect your vehicle from the harsh elements during long-term storage in the winter. Make sure the cover is properly fitted, secured, and periodically checked for any damage or wear. In addition to the cover, use a suitable storage location that provides protection from moisture, wind, and other environmental factors.7. Are car covers resistant to ice accumulation and damage?The best-quality car covers are designed to be water-resistant and windproof, reducing the risk of ice accumulation and damage. However, it's still important to remove accumulated snow and ice from the cover promptly, especially after significant snowfalls, to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance.8. How often should I clean my car cover in the winter?Car covers should be cleaned periodically to ensure they remain effective at protecting your vehicle. In winter, this may mean more frequent cleanings to remove salt, grime, and other debris. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for cleaning and maintenance, as some materials may require specific care instructions.9. Can I use the same car cover for summer and winter protection?While some car covers are designed to provide year-round protection, not all will offer optimal performance in both summer and winter. Materials that are breathable and lightweight may be ideal for hot weather, while thicker, more insulated materials can be better for protecting your vehicle in the cold and snow. Consider the specific needs and conditions of your region and vehicle when selecting a cover that will provide the best protection throughout the year.10. How can I store my car cover when not in use?Car covers should be properly stored and maintained to prolong their lifespan. After removing the cover from your vehicle, gently brush off any loose snow, dirt, or debris. Fold or roll the cover neatly, and store it in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent mildew or damage from moisture. Following manufacturer's instructions on storage can also help keep your cover in optimal condition for extended use.As an Amazon™ Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. |

Reviews🔗Arkrocket Retro Bluetooth Record Player with Turntable and Built-In Speakers, Brownhttps://preview.redd.it/b5tilx8uib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=38fe181f35ff91847eb92bef068e2f29619d748a Once upon a time, I stumbled upon the Arkrocket Discovery 3-Speed Bluetooth Record Player with Retro Turntable and Built-In Speakers. As a music lover who appreciates both the classics and new sounds, I was excited to see how this little device would perform. Right out of the box, I noticed its sleek design and vintage-inspired charm. The removable legs made it easy to fit into any space in my home. Setting up the turntable was a breeze, and within minutes, I was jamming to some old vinyls. The sound quality was impressive for its size and price range. While the built-in speakers aren't booming, they're perfect for a cozy room or study. The ability to connect my phone via Bluetooth has made it even more versatile, allowing me to stream my favorite digital tunes right alongside my vinyl collection. However, there was one minor issue that caught my attention. The legs are made of adhesive upholstery, which began to separate after some use. A quick fix with glue restored its appearance, but I wish it had been made with a sturdier material. Overall, I am thoroughly pleased with my Arkrocket Discovery 3-Speed Bluetooth Record Player. It's not only a great conversation starter but also an affordable and reliable way to enjoy my favorite music in a nostalgic yet modern manner. 🔗Crosley Cruiser Plus Bluetooth Suitcase Turntable in Tourmalinehttps://preview.redd.it/qr9j36luib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef9cd5306e83ab3bf3f611edecdf742d653daa3a Once a vinyl enthusiast, always a vinyl enthusiast. That's my motto ever since I got my hands on the Crosley Cruiser Plus Turntable - Tourmaline. It just blends old school music with modern technology seamlessly. When I first unboxed it, I was instantly charmed by its charming suitcase-style shell. It gave off a vintage vibe that I absolutely loved. Plus, the built-in Bluetooth receiver and stereo speakers took the convenience factor up a notch. Navigating through the Turntable is a breeze. The adjustable pitch control and 3-speed feature (33 1/3, 45 & 78 RPM) gave me the flexibility to play any vinyl record I wanted. And don't even get me started on the Bluetooth in/out capability. It was like having a digital music player and a vinyl record player all wrapped into one device. One day, I had the brilliant idea of connecting my phone to the turntable and playing some of my favorite vinyl-to-digital remastered tracks.

The first thing that caught my eye was the sleek, retro design that adds a touch of class to any room. But, it's not all about looks. The built-in Bluetooth function makes it incredibly easy to connect and play my favorite digital music from my phone or tablet, while the 3-speed belt-driven turntable lets me enjoy all of my vinyl records at various speeds. One of the standout features for me is the high-sensitivity stylus, which does an excellent job of accurately reading record information. The audio output is decent for its size, and I appreciate the added flexibility of the 3.5mm Aux-in and RCA output options. However, the built-in speakers could be better, so I sometimes connect it to my external speaker system for a more immersive listening experience. Some drawbacks I noticed are the relatively low power output, which might not be able to fill a big room with sound, as well as the lack of an adaptive speed feature. Additionally, the build quality feels a bit flimsy and the accompanying instructions could be clearer. Overall, this Bluetooth record player is a stylish and functional addition to any music lover's collection, offering a nostalgic vinyl listening experience with modern connectivity. It's not perfect, but for its price point, it's definitely worth considering. 🔗Bluetooth Vinyl Turntable with 40W Stereo Speakershttps://preview.redd.it/phrbaubvib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e6c440c810a089975924b5fed55e740647ab3870 As a music enthusiast, I've had my fair share of turntables, but the Arkrocket Cassini has truly stood out. Upon receiving it, I was blown away by its stunning walnut finish and sleek design. The ease of setup was impressive, making it truly user-friendly. However, what truly captured my attention was the sound quality this turntable delivers. It uses a moving magnet cartridge system, which offers a stable playback, allowing my vinyls to be enjoyed in all their glory. This turntable also supports Bluetooth, giving me the flexibility to connect with wireless speakers or headphones when I want. The included 40Watt bookshelf speakers are a cherry on top, providing clear and powerful sound. The only con I noticed was that the turntable is a bit on the heavier side, making it a little less portable than some other options. However, this is a minor inconvenience for the incredible listening experience it provides. Overall, I highly recommend the Arkrocket Cassini for anyone looking to enhance their vinyl listening experience. 🔗Bluetooth Record Player with Stereo Speakers and Cassette Playerhttps://preview.redd.it/ep176snvib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=851778d4650a0515ba32cd0c7c7fbc6ff54ae82a I've been using the Digitnow Bluetooth Record Player with Stereo Speakers, and it's been such a nostalgic blast. Not only does it let me play my old vinyls, but it also has cassette functionality, making it a compact all-in-one media player. One of the standout features for me is the MP3 conversion capability. As someone who's been slowly digitizing my old music collection, this has been a game-changer. No need for a computer, just connect your USB or SD card and convert your vinyls directly into a MP3 format. The built-in speakers are decent, but they really shine when connected to an external sound system. The design is quite user-friendly too. The buttons are clearly labeled, and there's even a remote control for added convenience. Plus, the retro look with wooden sides adds a touch of classic charm to my home decor. However, there are a few downsides. The build quality could be better, as it feels a bit flimsy in places. Additionally, while the sound quality is passable, it's not quite on par with dedicated audio equipment. Despite these minor drawbacks, I've absolutely loved using the Digitnow Bluetooth Record Player. It's perfect for anyone who wants to relive their old vinyl and tape days, or for those looking to preserve and share their music collection. 🔗Retro Full-Size Jukebox Vinyl Record Player with Bluetooth and USBhttps://preview.redd.it/n0uv795wib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eb10d9f6e2c425199b84b46cfcb59d94183c7ff4 I recently got my hands on the Arkrocket Full-Size Jukebox Vinyl Record Player and I must say, it brought back a lot of nostalgic memories of my childhood trips to the soda shop. This retro-inspired marvel not only looks stunningly classic but also provides a delightful listening experience with various playback options.

It allowed me to effortlessly stream music from my smartphone right into the jukebox, blending old-school charm with modern convenience. Additionally, it comes equipped with a USB port, an SD card slot, and of course, a CD player - talk about versatility! However, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. The jukebox is quite heavy at nearly 47 pounds, making it a little challenging to move around. Furthermore, I noticed that some parts seemed slightly fragile and needed careful handling. In conclusion, if you're looking to add a touch of retro style to your home while enjoying your vinyl collection or streaming tunes from your phone, the Arkrocket Full-Size Jukebox Vinyl Record Player could be just what you need. Just remember to handle it with care and maybe keep it in one spot due to its weight. 🔗Vinyl Record Player with MP3 Converter, Bluetooth, CD, and Cassettehttps://preview.redd.it/u9qwwsdwib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3f8bdce3bc9650022b10aac1474d0bc4eef0ea3 I recently got my hands on the Digitnow Bluetooth Record Player Turntable, and I can tell you firsthand that it's a versatile and retro-chic addition to your music setup. The briefcase-style design is both trendy and timeless, featuring classic color schemes that blend seamlessly with any decor. One of the standout features of this turntable is its ability to play multiple formats, including vinyl, CDs, cassettes, and even MP3s. The twin detachable speakers offer clear and loud sound, ensuring that you can jam out to your tunes without any pesky noise interference. Plus, the built-in Bluetooth connection lets you stream music wirelessly from your phone or laptop, giving you even more options for your listening pleasure. Another awesome feature is the vinyl-to-MP3 recording function. This allows you to digitize your vinyl records and save them on a USB or SD card, making it easier than ever to backup and share your old vinyl collection with friends and family. Now, let's talk about the downsides, shall we? While the design is undoubtedly eye-catching, the build quality leaves something to be desired. Some users have reported issues with the CD door and overall durability of the unit. Additionally, the remote control is quite small and difficult to use, which can be frustrating if you're not a fan of getting up to change the volume or switch tracks. In conclusion, the Digitnow Bluetooth Record Player Turntable is a unique and compact device that offers a wide range of listening options for music enthusiasts.

Firstly, the build quality felt a tad flimsy, especially when compared to other models in the same price range. Additionally, although the sound quality was decent overall, it wasn't quite up to par with some of the more premium options on the market. In summary, if you're looking for a beginner-friendly turntable that offers great convenience and easy setup, the Audio-Technica AT-LP60XBT-SV is definitely worth considering. While its build quality and sound performance are not top-notch, it provides excellent value for the price and will surely bring back those retro vinyl vibes you've been craving. 🔗BluetoothturntablePlayerforvinylrecordswithejectandfastforward, REC, DELfunction.https://preview.redd.it/fnxqjojxib1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=afbdb53ca73729d7f28a1273866a2fb5a303a294 I recently got my hands on the Digitnow Bluetooth Record Player Turntable, a multifunctional device that plays vinyl records, tapes, CDs, and even connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth.

My personal experience using the Dual CS 329 has been nothing short of awe-inspiring. Each vinyl listening session is now elevated due to its superior sound quality, making this turntable a worthwhile investment. While it may lack some of the advanced features of higher-end models, its ease of use and setup more than make up for it. However, one minor drawback lies in its lack of customisability.

The device's versatility in tracking rates caught my attention, particularly the lunar, solar, and sidereal options. This made capturing the night sky's wonders a truly effortless experience. The 11-pound payload capacity also proved to be more than sufficient for my various equipment setups. However, there were a few areas where the Star Adventurer GTi fell short. The mount's intermittent disconnecting, whether using Wi-Fi or USB, introduced some frustration.

https://www.sohu.com/a/775857992_121356614 submitted by wilsonna to Xpeng [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/pcips1kq4b1d1.jpg?width=690&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0162480ae9113706b17fb7af235984e106ba643a Translated by Claude AIThe 2024 Beijing Auto Show is still going strong. Since the first day of the auto show, Zhou Hongyi and Lei Jun's "one red and one green" appearances caused a traffic frenzy, setting an example for all automaker bosses. CEOs from various companies visited each other's booths, praising one another, which became a common sight at this auto show. One "hot search" trend after another was produced, bringing unprecedented attention. Almost every day, the exhibition venue was packed with people.After the traffic frenzy, some trends have become increasingly apparent. Many exhibition visitors observed that intelligent driving was undoubtedly a hot topic at this auto show, with major automakers heavily showcasing their intelligent driving technologies. For example, XPeng's senior director of autonomous driving system development, Ma Jun, introduced XPeng's latest intelligent driving technologies and achievements on site. According to him, in April 2024, XPeng became the first Chinese automaker to successfully test its self-developed, high-level navigation guided pilot (HNGP) system based on autonomous driving technology in Europe, accelerating the global production of XNGP. Interestingly, on the eve of the auto show, the International Data Corporation (IDC) also released a report titled "Intelligent Driving Capability Assessment, 2024," comprehensively evaluating the intelligent driving experience of various automakers through real-vehicle testing. It is understood that IDC's evaluation this time covered six automotive brands: NIO, Li Auto, Tesla, WM Motor, XPeng, and Zeekr. It focused on seven major capabilities: intelligent vehicle model coverage, automatic parking, memory parking, highway lane centering control (LCC), urban LCC, highway navigation guided pilot, and urban navigation guided pilot. Each dimension was scored from 1 to 5 based on the measured performance of various functions, with higher scores indicating better performance. The final report showed that the automotive brands included in the report generally scored above 3 in all functions. Among them, thanks to its long-term investment and accumulation in AI and intelligent driving, XPeng has been able to integrate advanced intelligent driving functions into lower-priced models and demonstrate outstanding performance in complex urban road conditions, receiving full scores in 6 categories.WM Motor also performed well in memory parking and urban navigation guided pilot thanks to its technology advantages from Huawei. Brands like NIO, Li Auto, and Zeekr also scored decently in this assessment due to their resource integration and continuous efforts in the intelligent driving direction. Tesla's performance was not outstanding in this assessment due to limited function openness. IDC also predicted in the report that global sales of intelligent driving vehicles will maintain rapid growth, while AI-driven intelligent driving development and expansion of autonomous driving application scenarios will be important market trends in the future. Some automakers have already started to increase their efforts in these directions. For example, regarding the issue of end-to-end large models for vehicles, several automakers have announced that their launch timelines will be concentrated in the first half of this year. At this auto show, XPeng's chairman He Xiaopeng also announced that its end-to-end intelligent driving solution has begun public testing and will be officially released next month. According to He Xiaopeng, based on the end-to-end large model, XPeng's XNGP advanced intelligent driving assistance system will complete upgrades to the perception large model and the control large model. In addition to the end-to-end driving solution, XPeng's AI Tianji system released this time is said to be the industry's first operating system that applies AI technology to intelligent cabins and intelligent driving, and is expected to begin mass rollout on May 20th of this year. |
