When I bought these Curad Nitrile Gloves, it was a medium size and had 200 powder-free disposable gloves in one box. The thing I like about using nitrile gloves is that you get a lot of gloves, so whenever your hands get dirty and slippery, you can simply remove them and throw on a new pair. They do tend to be prone to ripping because they are thin however.
Because my project car also has the infamous pixelated instrument cluster, I can’t exactly tell what the issues are. So I thought this would be an opportune time to try out TOPDON’s ArtiDiag Pro, a diagnostic tool that not only can give me insight into the trouble codes my vehicle has, but also allow me to do any other kind of diagnostics I need to. For this review, TOPDON supplied this scan tool for me to test and offer my honest opinion on.
I came across this set of TOZO Tonal Dots T12 Wireless Earbuds for about $30 and they looked like it might be an upgrade from the previous ones I had. Upon unboxing these earbuds, I immediately realized that they were slightly larger than my previous TOZO NC9’s. The earbuds also come with a charging case, along with a number of different size ear cups to fit your ears.
If you want an easy installation and want to avoid issues with safety with a window air conditioner unit, another convenient option may be to use a portable air conditioner and punch a hole through your wall for the vent hose. Just like the window air conditioner, a portable unit will likely not have ability to fully cool down your garage space, but it can certainly keep a small section of your garage cool and at least bring the temperature down a bit overall.
This deadbolt lock is called the U-Bolt Pro WiFi Smart Deadbolt. It can connect to your home’s WiFi and to an app on your smartphone, allowing you to remotely lock and unlock your door, as well as configure various settings and users on the device. You can even set up your fingerprint (or other family members’ or guests’ fingerprints) to unlock as well.
One of the biggest improvements to my garage during my renovation has been upgrading the standard ceiling-mounted, belt-driven garage door opener to a wall-mounted one that has smart capabilities. I purchased the Genie B6172H Wall Mount Smart Garage Door Opener while it was on sale (around $425) when it typically sells for about $500 regular price. This unit mounts to the wall right by the garage door and drives the garage door using its internally driven shaft, eliminating the need for the bulky ceiling-mounted garage door opener and track.
When it comes to earphones or earbuds, nothing would stay in my ears. That’s until I tried the TOZO NC9 earbuds. They go in your ears tilted forward, and then you rotate them back to sit in your ears. After they are wedged into your ear, they just don’t come out. I love these things because for the first time in 20 years of trying all kinds of earphones/earbuds, I’ve found ones that stay in my ears.
Hand cleaner is a useful product to have on hand (no pun intended) in the shop. If you’ve ever found yourself with oil or grease on your hands and using soap wasn’t enough, you’ll know that the only thing that can truly clean your hands is a pumice cleaner. Fast Orange Hand Cleaner is a bit more abrasive and is very effective at getting oil and grease off of my hands.
At home, I’ve slowly been making the switch from regular keyed door locks, over to electronic door locks that utilize a keypad. This makes it a lot easier to lock and unlock the doors to our house without the need to carry around a physical key. This has worked out well for us at home, soI decided to install the same thing in the garage.
