Thumbs up

After 5 years, it was time to retire my trusty ASUS RT N66U aka Dark Knight router.
One thing I learned after such a long time using this brand, it's very solid, excellent customer and tech support, and few drops over the years.
But with sooooo much required Wi-Fi data needed throughout our house, it was time for a upgrade. Even with Cat6 connections throughout, the sheer number of apps, phones, appliances, devices, etc, definitely fight for speeds.
This bad boy will be a welcome addition! On sale during Prime Day.
The Mobile Suit Gundam Edition is a bonus.

This kit should solve first of all the problem to open/close the hardtop at speeds above of 15kph/9mph to a possible maximum of 60kph/35mph. I would set it to 40kph/25mph.
Furthermore you are be able to remote open the deck with the FOB and choose the option to let the windows remain down or got closed as stock set.
Installation should be take one hour, whens not too hot outside tomorrow, I'll install it then.

2 tubs of ON's Gold Standard, naturally flavor casein protein. I usually mix it 50/50 with their whey from the same line in the mornings.

I will say that, though, that holy crap has protein gotten expensive! I had been buying from Netrition for 15+ years but shifted to bodybuilding.com the last 2 times. These tubs went from $50ea to $60ea a couple years ago. Now they're $100ea, if even in stock. Bodybuilding.com has them for $75ea + free shipping and usually some sort of discount promo going on. I'll probably get the same whey from CostCo going forward since they pouch they carry is larger (by weight) yet far cheaper. It isn't the naturally flavored like I prefer but I have haven't been able to get that version for a year anyways and at least it still has far fewer ingredients than most proteins on the market. (Sorry..../rant)

Amazon had a good deal for this set and these cams have built-in spotlights. Got them to cover the back door and patio area. I was surprised how small they are. Like two packs of cigs side by side.

I forgot / blocked out the exact amount but it was something ridiculous for what is it. Something like $150 to $175.

Got it from an artist in Asheville. We're heading out to dinner shortly but will try to find her contact info and post it later / tomorrow.

Full disclosure: my wife told me over dinner she is disappointed in the dog portrayals. We paid upfront some I told her it is what it is and hope she likes it better when we pick it up in a couple of weeks. I think it’s fine for what it is.

Yard Works electric pressure washer from Home Depot -- Max 1800 psi and 1.35 gal/min. With my 10% military discount $135.

Replaced a Honda-powered Craftsman pressure washer that I had for 12 years and did not use much -- max 2300 psi if memory serves. Sold on craigslist for $150 (bargain!) The problem was that my wife wants to use a pressure washer herself on the deck and was intimidated by the gas-powered unit.

I may regret this -- maybe I should've kept both. The $15 I put in my pocket after the deal was done might not be worth it; too late now...

Let us know how it works. I've been looking at getting an electric pressure washer as well. When we still did the lawn ourselves we had 80V battery powered stuff that worked really well. I've wondered if the electric pressure washer will be able to get the job done.

I see you went with a cheaper unit, but you can get ones that do 3000psi.

Same Honda engine as mine rated at 2800 psi. Bought mine five years ago after a string of unreliable electric ones. One was a SIMONIZE™ that was replaced twice in one day then finally returned for a refund, only to find two guys in front of me at the counter with the same model. This particular model had been for sale with a 25% discount. It went off the shelves fast but came back just as fast by the looks of it.
