991v2 in-store?

Question/Help

Where's can I find a pair of 991v2s in a brick and mortar that I can try on for size? Does the flagship store in Brighton have it? Or any other locations?

Anyone have pairs of both the 991v2 and the 580 and have compared sizing? The 580 was my first pair and I can fit in both an 8.5 and a 9 and I was wondering what the sizing would be compared to the 991v2. I have a wider foot and I've read a ton about sizing the 991v2 but I want to make the correct choice with sizing. For comparison, I've tried on the 993, 990v6, and 2002r and I can fit into an 8.5. Tried on size 9 for 993 and 990v6 and it felt too large. But it was only for like 10 minutes max so I don't know if that would change if my foot swells. Any experiences would be appreciated.

I'm going on an international trip to Tokyo for about a week and I've been searching extensively for a backpack. I don't necessarily need a bag for one bag travels, nor a travel bag. I think what I'm looking for is a high capacity, comfortable EDC for city exploring.

On the plane I just plan to pack a light jacket, maybe a battery pack and chargers. Also, entertainment for the long flight like a portable game system or something.

Once I get to my destination, I plan to leave everything at the hotel and take a backpack around with just a light jacket and battery pack/chargers. I plan to leave the bag mostly empty to fill up with shopping stuff and souvenirs while wandering the city.

Hello,

With prices of GPUs falling, I was considering upgrading from my prebuilt into something I'll be building on my own. I got a HP Omen relatively early before prices exploded and it came with an OEM 3080 10gb. I have all the parts I need for my new build and I was originally planning on just transplanting the 3080. But prices are dropping and the AIB 6900xt cards are tempting.

From what I've seen with available comparisons, the 3080 goes toe to toe with the 6900xt. However, the comparisons are with the 12gb refresh. Other sites say potentially a 5-10 percent increase in performance with the 6900xt. Is that increase worth buying a completely new card? I understand there will be annou

Hey all,

I've been reading so much into this I might be overthinking it. I plan on using a birch butcher block as a desk and there are plenty of recommendations available on this sub. However, I've overloaded myself with too many options and I'd like to keep it as simple as possible.

I already have Arm-R-Seal Satin. From what I've read that's a poly finish, correct? Is that all I need in order to protect/seal the block? Or do I need a pre-conditioner?

My plan was to sand with 220 grit, apply pre-conditioner (if needed), then apply multiple coats of the Arm-R-Seal Satin.

Is that enough? Thanks for your help!

Hello I was wondering what's going on with my St. Augustine lawn. It's yellowing in certain areas and I was wondering if it could be fungal disease or just time to fertilize. It's been raining a lot the past couple of weeks.

I last applied fertilizer the beginning of May.

I recently used BioAdvanced Fungicide on my lawn two days ago, but I'm not sure if it helped.

I'm in Zone 9b.

Hello,

I've been lurking this subreddit for awhile now but I have a bunch of questions regarding using kelp4less lawn amendments in a hose end sprayer. I've read the stickied post, searched the subreddit, Google searches, etc. regarding how to use water soluble products in hose end sprayer. What I've read is a lot of conflicting information.

So for example, I've been looking at either the extremeblend or green lawn and turf. I've read 1 tbsp of dry product into the container, fill with water, then spray 1000 sqft. I've also read about people creating a concentrate and using 3-4oz of the concentrate in a hose end sprayer per 1000 sqft.

What's the best way? Or what has worked for you using

I used the search button for research and have a list of recommendations but from what I've seen they put huge Clapton coils in there. I've seen the wasp nano with simple builds but I'm wondering what else is good.

Would the popular dead rabbit/pulse/nudge/drop recommendations be good for simple round wire builds?

Hello, I'm driving a 2009 Honda Accord. One day the d4 starts blinking so I take it to a transmission shop. The replaced the solenoid that was causing rough shifting from 1st gear to 2nd. I was driving home and its definitely shifting better. But near home, it starts blinking again. Any ideas? Thanks.

I'm looking to grab some wire from lightningvapes due to their Labor Day sale. What's recommended? I would like to vape around 0.3 - 0.5 ohms. Is 28 gauge easy to work with? 28 gauge kanthal is too wiry in my opinion.
