This is the replacement power inverter that I was sent.
This is the second inverter that the company sent me and this did not work out of the box just like the first one. I had to remove the cover and there was a unhooked wire on this one. I am trying to save the money up for a larger inverter, but I will not buy another inverter from this company. This makes 2 out of 2 inverters that did not work. While this inverter had a easy fix there is no way that I would even attempt to fix the first one. I do also understand that this battery is to small for a good test so I did a test connected to my solar setup later in the day, and it's on my Ytube channel. When I did the test on my solar it worked fine on my 700 watt microwave, but you should not have to open a inverter to see if you could fix it. I also uploaded that video fist talking about this inverter.

Bad Inverter WZRELB.
I just purchased a new 12 volt 1500 watt power inverter. It's a WZRELB inverter. I tested this on my 700 watt microwave and it started to smoke. I then checked the fuses and they were melting. There was also a frayed exposed wire. This has brand new 40 amp fuses and I just did another test to see if it could carry a small 270 watt heater. I also had my 400 watt inverter going that did run the heater.

Vacuum Sealer Update.
This is a update on my vacuum sealer, and what I am doing with it. I am using it for more than just food for us. Remember if you have a animal they need to eat too. You can also make pre made foods for your freezer. With food costs on the rise. You need to do what ever you can do to keep your food good longer. Think outside the box when using your vacuum sealer. You can also make a emergency supply bag that is waterproof.

700 watt Radiator heater on solar batteries.
This is the end of a much longer video where I hook up my small 700 watt radiator heater to my solar batteries. My solar panels were not connected through this test. If you want to see the whole test video let me know because it will be a very long video. I connected it up at 2:57, and turned it off at 4:30. So it was a hour and a half test. With the power left in my batteries I think it could have gone another half hour if not longer. My batteries are cheap lead acid marine batteries One was bought in 2015, and the other one was bought in 2016. These heaters are best used in a small micro climate. The wind was also blowing, and it's a little bit cold outside so the fins on the heater were getting cooled down some by the wind.

CoinOps XInput dll error fix.
If you are trying coinops and you keep getting the XInput1_4 dll error here is the fix for that error. I am using windows 7 but this should work for all windows versions. This is a very easy fix that anyone can do as long as you can get to your windows System 32 or Sys(wow)64 folders. I am working on trying to fix the sound and graphics errors with the Dreamcast and Gamecube emulators that come with some versions of coinops. If I find a fix I will upload it. This fix should also work if you are getting this error while trying steam games as well.

Lokithor J401 Jump Starter.
This is the new Lokihor J401 jump starter that I bought for my girlfriends car. I tested it on my Dodge Ram B2500 van with the negative battery post unhooked. I show you, and tell you how to use what would be considered boost mode for a dead battery. The test is in the very first part of this video. If you want a jump starter like this. It's a good one. We bought this ourselves and I don't sell them. If you buy one for yourself. I don't make a dime. Does it work ?. Yes. Some people might find it hard to charge since it does not come with a charging brick. I used the 12 volt port on my Northpole Light to get this to fast charge. My 12 volt port can put out 12 volts and up to 10 amps. You can also charge this with a 100 watt solar system. I would not use anything less that a 100 watts for solar charging.

Update for my small window solar.
If you watched my video on the small solar in my window. Then you would have seen that I could run a light, or charge small USB things during the day. I have made a small improvement to it. So now I can run the light, and even use my USB battery charger during the night if needed. This is a very simple set up that anyone can do. Everything except the solar panel itself is mounted on a single piece of plywood. Now I can charge things anytime including at night, and I can run my light all day, and all night if needed. With this setup I can even charge my laptop. A setup like this would be good for a apartment or a small place where you can't drill holes through the wall.

My Girlfriends car would not start and the battery was lying.
Last night my Girlfriends car would not start after she got off of work. Since I don't have a phone she could not call me to pick her up so she got a ride home. This morning we went to try and get her car and I took my volt ohm meter to check the battery. It showed 12.5 volts if I remember right. Once I jumped her car off I checked the alternator, and it was putting out over 13.5 volts so I knew the battery was lying and it had to be bad. I also found out why her front turn signal was not working, and it was not a bad bulb. She has a 2001 Buick Century Custom, and in this video I show you how to get to the front bulbs. I also show you why I said that her battery was Lying.

After the PS4 Fix is it still working ?.
A couple weeks ago I showed you how I got my Girlfriends PS4 to read discs again. How has it been working for the past couple of weeks. Well she has played over 100 hours of Final Fantasy XV, and she has also been playing a lot of Horizon Forbidden West. I also show you that I can even get Tales of Arise to load and play very easy now. Most games now load and play without any issues. The simple trick that I did adjusted the laser so it reads better. You can go back and watch the first 5 minutes of that video to get the fix. I do show it in this video as well from that video, but I go in to more detail in my last PS4 video. This is more or less a update to that video to show you that it is working. Before you replace anything on your PS4 if it is not reading the discs, or if it does not load or freezes when the game does load try the simple fix and see if it helps you. Thanks and everyone have a great day. P.S. If the fix works for you please share it so other can try. From what I can tell I have the only video that takes care of the disc not loading issue. This fix should work unless your Blu-Ray drive is bad or out completely. Once again I show you the fix in my last PS4 video. This is a update to that video.

Solar charging and light. No Battery or Charger Controller.
I was going to upload a different video today, but I decided that this would be a better video. I will upload the other video at another time. Here I show you how to get emergency light, and USB charging from a small 30 watt solar panel. If you want a larger panel then I would use nothing higher than a 50 watt for a setup like this. This setup would be good for a power outage or a emergency. This does not use a 12 volt battery or Solar Charger Controller. Because you don't have a battery hooked up it will only work during the day, but as you can see the sun is behind clouds and it's still working. Everyone have a nice day.

Do you really need a Faraday Cage ?.
Do you really need a Faraday cage to protect stuff from a EMP. Can you make your own protection at home without spending a lot of money ?. Would it be better to have everything in one cage, or would it be better to have everything protected without keeping everything in one place ?. It's pretty simple to protect items from a EMP.

Why you should practice at growing food.
This is why you should practice growing your own food, before you need to do it to survive. The price of food has gone way up. The experts are also saying that we could see a rather large food shortage in the near future. Even if we don't see it in the States. The cost of everything has gone way up. Also sometimes you can cheat if needed. If you are using old food such as corn for making fertilizer make sure it's dried out some before putting in the soil to keep it from rotting. I'm using a couple old carrots here to help my tomato plant.

How I got my Girlfriends PS4 To play Discs again.
As many of you know sony hit my girlfriends PS4 with a bad update. Even after replacing the Blu-Ray Drive, and the Hard Drive with new one's some games would not install or run. I found a fix to that, and I show you how I did it. The only game that still has issues is Tales of Arise, But I figured out why, and I show you in this video why that game. My Girlfriend has 2 Tales of Arise games that we bought at different times, and Both of them have bad presses of the game on the discs. Once I did this trick I did get tales of arise to load and play, but with the disc being pressed wrong the disc has to be inserted a certain way for it to work. Everything else works without a issue. I hope this helps some-one out.

A homeless transgender almost got us evicted.
I don't care what a person wants to call themselves. I do try and help everyone that I can. A homeless transgender person was snooping around the apartments and got busted by our landlord. This transgender person told our landlord that I told them they could be around the apartments. Our landlord wanted us evicted and had his wife call. After we talked to her she said that her husband claimed that he thought we were letting people stay in the camper. he also said that if anyone else comes in the yard to charge anything, or if he thinks we are letting someone stay in the camper then we Will get evicted. I had to take down 2 of the 100 watt solar panels and the 30 watt panel, and the charging port off the camper to make him happy. When you try and help people, and someone lies on you it can cost you in the end. Because of what this transgender did I Will No Longer Help Any Homeless with anything.

Can you get power from a microwave turntable motor ?.
In a emergency can you get any usable power from a microwave turntable motor. Depending on the microwave these can produce 12 volt, 120 volt, and in some countries I believe 220 volt current. Even if it produces power how much can it produce, and what can you do with the power it makes ?. The answer is not much. The volts maybe a good voltage, but the watts and amps are pretty low. Can you use it for something that takes very low power ?. The answer is yes. If you find a old microwave that came with a turntable then save the motor and give it a try.

Usable power from a Permanent Magnet Generator.
In this video I answer the question Can You Get Usable Power from a Permanent Magnet Motor. There are several videos on youtube on this subject, But most of them are either wrong or just false. The short answer is both yes and no, because it requires the motor to spin at such a fast rate that most people can not keep up with the required speed to make it work. I test this with my 12 Volt Cordless drill and my Corded Drill. This is the same motor that I used for my bike generator. Will it work on a bike generator ?. Once again the answer is both yes and no. I show you how fast that you will need to turn this to get Any Usable Power. I myself replaced this with a low rpm alternator for my bike generator. Given enough speed and time this would work for charging batteries and or charging things like my Portable DVD Player.

How to play CoinOps Games on Laptop.
If you have ever tried CoinOPS and could not get it to work, or if your game controller could not start the games then this is the video for you. CoinOPS is a game system that is used for home made arcade cabinets and android devices. There are a few versions for windows as well. I go over how to download it, and install it on to a USB flash drive or a external hard drive. You can even instill it on your main drive. I am using 3 different controllers to show you how to get the games to work. This is the smallest version for windows that I could find and it's still almost 12Gb's. If you have already downloaded it but can't get the games to run make sure windows picks up your controller. If it does but you can't add credits ( Coin ) to get the game to start. Try using the number 5 key on your keyboard, and to get the game to run use the number 1 key. Here are some helpful links.
