I recently had my catalytic converter replaced at mineke because it was completely clogged with soot and was robbing power. Mineke couldn't get the old O2 sensor out so installed a new bosch O2 sensor for my car. Kept throwing codes for the o2 sensor. Have replaced it with model specific O2 sensor once from rockauto and then genuine part from Kia. Both times still throws codes for heater. If I backprobe the O2 sensor connector when disconnected, I get .45v on the sensor lines, and only 10v to the heater. one side of the heater circuit if tested with body ground will give 13.4v and the other side will only give 3v.

From my understanding the 3v side is the heater ground modulated b

I always see posts on here regarding flash drives dying left and right. Honestly the best flash drive to use is one that uses SLC NAND flash chips. I've used a chipfancier 16GB SLC flash drive for over a year with zero issues. They're no longer available, but I found the same drive rebadged on amazon in 32GB size for $40.

​

So if anyone needs a new flash drive, use these. They'll almost never go bad since SLC cache is much more robust and can also handle tons more write cycles then the more common and cheap TLC/QLC NAND flash chips.

I have two APC SUA1500RM2U UPS units for sale. They have been fully tested, and brand new batteries 3 weeks ago installed. Local Pickup only please, with the new batteries the weight for shipping is too expensive.

​

$175 each or both for $300.

​

Had one on my deep freezer and the other on my home server for two weeks testing.
