    Gear List

    Ditch the 1 lb "large knife"...there's no need to be carrying multiple knives, especially not one that heavy. 1 lb seems like a lot for a pillow. I don't carry a sidearm or spray unless I'm in grizzly territory. Do you really need a 20,000 mAh battery? You could probably cut the capacity (and...

    Arrow hitting cable

    I've had trouble with Blazer vanes contacting the cables on some of my bows. Usually rotating the nock 120° to put the cock vane horizontal pointing away from the cables (instead of vertical pointing up) was enough to fix the issue. If that's not enough in your case, there are plenty of medium...

    Lighted Nock Question?

    Firenock is the most durable lighted nock I've found. They're pricey though.

    Is your Unit on Fire?

    https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/ is a great resource for keeping tabs on wildfires.

    Colorado Left Over Tags

    Yes. I didn’t refresh or click around on that page; I just left the browser window open and worked on other stuff on my computer. Maybe I should have waited until closer to go time to navigate to the residency page? Oh well, I already have a cow tag in hand and was just trying to upgrade to...

    Mechanical and Civil Engineering

    I can't speak to #1 in the locales you mentioned. #2-5 can vary widely between specific industries and companies. IME two weeks per year of time off is pretty typical for new hires, but there are exceptions. Get as much non-core and 101-level coursework out of the way as possible while he's...

    Same here. I was sitting on the "select residency" page by 8:10. Clicked the "proceed" button a few seconds after 9:00 and it logged me out instead of proceeding to the next screen.

    Emergency communications

    inReach or Zoleo BTW you can type out custom messages on an inReach Mini, it just takes a long time because there's not a full keyboard so you have to scroll through the alphabet one click at a time.

    generator fuel consumption

    A small 120V generator is workable for home backup if you're not on well water and have mostly propane appliances. In my case, I need to run a 3/4 hp pump to have water and all my appliances are electric.

    generator fuel consumption

    Propane vs. diesel economics vary by region (and season). In my neck of the woods (Ozarks), bulk propane is currently around $2.00/gal and offroad (red-dyed) diesel is around $3.20/gal. Normalized by energy content, that's approximately $22/MMBtu for propane and $23/MMBtu for diesel. I'm not...

    generator fuel consumption

    Cost per kWh from a small scale piston engine generator is going to be high (compared to grid power) regardless of fuel choice. Whatever fuel has the lowest cost per Btu will be your most economical generator fuel. Typically that's natural gas, but obviously only an option if you already have a...

    Sold Stone Glacier Approach 1800 bag

    If you're willing to go a bit larger, I have an Approach 2800 bag I would sell for $150 TYD.

    generator fuel consumption

    The spec sheet on Generac's website lists fuel consumption at half and full load. 250 gallons is the nominal tank capacity, but the safe fill limit is 80% (200 gal) to allow for thermal expansion of the propane. Using Generac's numbers for their 20 kW model, 200 gal of propane would last 84...

    Broadhead weight vs Insert weight

    If all other aspects of the arrow remained the same (shaft make/model/spine, length, vane configuration, nock) and you paired a lightweight aluminum insert with a 150 gr head, your total arrow weight would increase by about 15 gr. You might notice a slight difference in trajectory at longer...

    How to add 25 grains to vap tko

    I don't know if Victory's stock VAP half-outs have rear-facing threads or not. If they do, adding a .166 Gold Tip FACT weight behind the half-out might work if the thread patterns match up. Unless your half-outs were installed with heat reversible glue ("hot melt")—which they probably weren't...

    How to add 25 grains to vap tko

    What insert is currently in your arrow...hidden insert (HIT) or some sort of half-out?

    Help me with a dilemma

    Load them both up with an equal amount of weight and do some test hikes. Keep whichever one fits/feels better. If it's a tie, I would lean toward the SG because it's slightly lighter and has a load shelf built into the frame.

    Ultraview 1K Arrows

    Seems like an insanely expensive solution to a non-existent problem. The diameter falls in the no-man's land where a standard point/head is too large to fit directly in the shaft and a Deep Six is too small...so your only option is an overpriced half-out in a size that only Ultraview makes. But...
