Hi Mike, thank you for all the time and effort you took making this video. I have this unit in hot, humid central florida and often leave it in the sun to potentially increase the heat but it isn't necessary. The brown to green ratio, if followed, heats up and breaks down nicely. I wonder if your moisture level would stay more constant if you placed your unit in the shade. Another idea, wrap in a wet blanket. Thanks again.
@houseonthemend3 күн бұрын
Great suggestion. I did place it on the north end of the house where it had only partial morning sun and still struggled to keep up the moisture level. I never thought of using a wet blanket.

I'm guessing that tile was cracked again in 6 months. Mortar is cheap. The old should be completely removed. Construction adhesive would be the last thing I would use. Notice at 5:17 where the surrounding tiles lift as you pry up because you didn't cut the grout first. Those are probably cracked by now too. Don't do this.. a builder????

You guessed wrong. I was just at Jim’s house October of 2024 and the tile is fine.

Burning is also a sign of feeding too fast.
@houseonthemend14 күн бұрын
True, but I fed the material at the same rate throughout the project and went from no burn to progressively more burn at the end so this was definitely the blade becoming dull.
@awake360714 күн бұрын
@@houseonthemend True. Yeah you are right though. Stock blades are usually crappy (meant for occasional use so you don't notice how terrible they are). I tend to replace them if I am looking for a fine finish and longer use. I concur with the design flaw of the lock as well. Not a good sign when you have to use a zip tie or other hacks to do a safe cut.

Good review, man - this would be perfect for when I cut my in-laws grass since they have a very small lawn. Currently they have an electric lawnmower which involves hauling cables through the house and out into the garden. For 80+ year old grandparents that's a real chore. I have a large 21" petrol lawnmower and a small car so having the small Litheli lawnmower would be very useful (I already have the 1000 power station and some batteries). Keep up the great work brother - your reviews are very well made and informative.

@@houseonthemend Nice one - I'm expecting a Litheli hedge cutter to be delivered soon so it will get a good workout and I've checked out the other Litheli videos you've done for an honest view. In a time of rampantly fake (paid for) reviews it is good to watch someone who actually cares about what they are reviewing. I've got a backpack leaf blower which is ridiculously powerful but is also very loud so the Litheli blower is something I will consider in the future.

Thanks for your review. DOVOH laser line brightness varies across different directions. The left and right sides of the horizontal line will be dimmer than the left and right sides of the vertical line. This is a normal condition due to the characteristics of laser diodes. Please use bright sides to achieve the best results of visibility. Additionally, you can use a 10KHz laser receiver to improve performance over long distances. Our receiver is under production.

My pop uses his in his garage, Kinda like a vacuum cleaner, To clean up scraggler leaves, Light Dirt. Things like that, For the last four or five years, He uses it every day, And it works great for that., Today he bought me one for Father's Day. He surprised me with it from amazon, I've used it many, many times at his home, We also hang out in my garage, And i've been wanting one, I also use it for cleaning up the cat litter, That gets on the floor from their feet, So for the way my father and I use it., And vacuum only, We think it is pretty fantastic., Personally, I don't think it would be any good for anything else., Really enjoyed your video, I couldn't figure out how to take the fan cover off, That's what got me to your video, Anyways, thank you for sharing., I really enjoyed the part where the blower would not come on. I'm glad you left it in. Your video. It made me smile, Anyways, happy Father's Day. If you're a father, I will definitely give it a like, And have a great day. Bobby Miller, Detroit.
