It might have something passive, but only the 5 and 10 have the selectable repair modes. I did a test on the repair mode in the 5 in another video, it does something but its not a miracle worker.

Does is ever come up? If it never comes off e the float could be sunk. I actually did another slightly longer video on the same thing when I had to redo mine because the brand new float had a hole in it.

Happy to help.

They have one of these on Temu? I’ll look it up and add the link to the description. Might help international peeps

@@CatfishMotorsports that was a dumb statement and made no sense. My comment was fact checked accurate and funny and will require acknowledgement from host channel for said funny statement

Damn, maybe I should start a shipping business to you guys lol.

@CatfishMotorsports okay 👍 I need 2 badlands off-road trolley jacks plus, 😤 maybe a wee list

Well, first of all that hoist is $369 right now with no coupon. $329 with one. So your math is off by about 40% (that’s a lot) And second, what’s your suggestion? That I spend another $329 to buy a new hoist that I would then have to put together? Or I can do what I did, spend $107, and have a better product that’s more useful with only about 5 minutes of install time. But hey Bruh, thanks for watching! I appreciate the view and comment!

Happy to help!

Considering the low cost to upgrade it’s hard to beat.

Wheww we i garontee as well!

You should!

We are a throw away society. Most people would rather have cheap replaceable goods. To be fair, mine lasted almost a decade and was stored outside for a lot of that. My bigger issue is, considering they are almost the same price, why isn’t the air capable unit just put on the hoists in the first place.

Most people tear the seats up thinking they need to crank them down and then it's too late. Once you vice grip the valve closed the seat's gone and you're on borrowed time. :(

My old one was leaking from the seal at the top. But yeah I could see cranking down on the valve as a problem.

I think it would just take longer. In theory a 20 amp charger would charge 200 AH battery in 10 hours. I don’t see why it wouldn’t still charge it, it’s just going to take 4 times as long.

Thank you!

He isn’t sure about the hot rods yet.

One of them. I don’t remember which. Actually resulted in one of the worst scares I’ve had working on car stuff. I tried to do a battery revival with extra distilled water like a year ago. When I put the cap back on, it popped and splashed some battery acid directly into my eye. (Wear safety glasses kids). And then it didn’t actually help. Sorta soured me on the whole process lol.

Probably just liability boilerplate. It’s meant to switch to a maintenance mode after it’s done charging which is meant to be connected long term

@@CatfishMotorsports why noco 5 doesn't have float charge ? Weird

I would for sure like to try that. Mine has helped up decently a year later but did develop a couple small cracks over the winter where it expanded and contracted with temperature cycling. Which is why I stressed that others should take more time v-notching their cracks than I did. It still looks very good considering the minimal effort I put it in it.

The fumes give me special powers…… The light behind from the open doors in bright daylight messes with the camera. I opened the door when I let it run for a while off camera. I also may have had one of the out of shot doors open even when it was only running for 20-30 seconds.

@@CatfishMotorsports - Yeah just be careful brother. Wouldn’t want to see you or that beautiful dog get sick or die for CO2. 👍🏼

There were several. I took two wwii blocks out of there and two heads.

You could probably call it that in my garage too lol.

No. 360 degrees of rotation is still 360 degrees of rotation. It could have a small effect on your rpm while driving because of tire size differences but not for this test.

Excellent point.

@@CatfishMotorsports Just an update regarding this, yeah i'm glad i got that charger. I can just use the craftsman V20 battery/150W inverter and place it in the engine bay along with the charger when i get home to maintain the battery and it works great (instead of using a long extension cord). The reason why i do this is because i have a sound system with a 500w Amp and two 12's that tend to drain the battery (headlight dimming during bass hits) etc, so this helps me make sure my battery is never an issue.

Sure. Load something on TH-cam and send me the link. I’ll try my best to at least give you a starting point.

@CatfishMotorsports thanks sir that is mean alot I load video in this account

th-cam.com/video/UupRyxmhG_w/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared

I went with the terminator because I didn’t want to deal with the possibility of RFI issues. However, the Sniper 2 supposedly solves some of that compared to the original sniper.

Hell yeah man. Glad to be of assistance \m/

Honestly this little project was actually fun, but Ill say that with that first box with the stud broken off.......that was a high cuss word deal when I couldn't get that stuff to seld back on lol.

It’s pretty easy. You can try just moving the door strikers up a little first. You might find you are happy with that before you get the jack and block of wood out.

Thank you!

I’ll do that. I legit just killed the battery in my wagon (my fault. I left the key on) but that might have saved it. I’m going to buy a NOCO 5 too. I want to test that repair feature.

Most likely yeah.

Idk what you are talking about but thanks for watching!

Dude, your thumbnail. You spelled "switch" wrong. That is all I am saying. Some people create issues to cause people like me to react to spelling errors. That is all. regardless, you got two additional comments to a video I would not normally watch. @@CatfishMotorsports

It looks right to me :shrug: FWIW I can say with complete honesty I would never make a misspelling for comments if that makes you feel better.

My 62 is similar. It has a 160 in it (which is too cold for that car but I had it laying around) and if I drive it in the Indiana cooler months I have a hard time even getting it to the thermostat temp.

I’ve seen it all. I should have posted up an image of this bellows style thermostat I got out of a flathead. Never seen one like it. But I haven’t had a single issue out of those Richard Shaw type high flow units.

This one doesn’t have that function, only the larger NOCO chargers do. I haven’t got around to buying one but that’s good to know!

@@CatfishMotorsportsAfter I watched your video, I found this video showing the forced mode charging a dead battery: th-cam.com/video/m1lh1LubUXQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=SQ7Qsxez5TRwJVPY

Off the top of my head no, but I’ll go take a look at it tomorrow and see what I can see

@@CatfishMotorsports thanks. The thin wall stuff keeps kinking and collapsing

Yeah I mixed both in the description for SEO purposes because hear people call them both. But I was mad at myself in post. I thought about adding in a voice over but it always sounds wrong.

That is a thorough comment my friend! I’ll have to look up the rapid disassembly part and the ohm test. I’ll admit that’s a new one to me. Funny (or not so funny) I managed to get battery acid in my eye once removing the caps. Dumbass move not wearing safety glasses on my part. So I’m generally reluctant to tell people to do it. I kinda look at it more that this is a high percentage solution. If this doesn’t result in a charged battery, you can likely just call it a core. But yes you can get in the weeds and do some more in depth checks for sure. Thank you for watching!

@@CatfishMotorsports The acid splash is a bit concerning, but one can just lay a newspaper or junk rag over screwdriver and cap to prevent unintended eyewash. My own anecdote of Battery by battery is exactly that internal resistance subject. Pulled a customer car in for No Crank and determined no power, hooked up battery charger to it- a good one as discussed- and turned around to turn on charger. The battery exploded quite ceremoniously and immediate but luckily just disintegrated in mostly upward blast pattern from inside the fender well that brought all other techs running and ultimately laughing... ha... ha. Batteries are more durable than many think and can be brought back from a lot of deaths. But one really has to respect that internal resistance and those fantastic electrolyte fountain features!

@@CatfishMotorsports Oh yeah, a big one many are unaware of is that battery acid and corrosion can easily be washed/rinsed away by hot water... That simple. Yes, baking soda water is efficiently better but not always on hand. All parts and aspects of a car are all equally important to be well knowledgeable of.

@@fyrbyrd71 My case was trying to revive one by replacing the catalyst (didn't work in this case) but there was a little bit of the liquid on the rim around the cell holes. When I popped the cap back in place it snapped down hard, into that small puddle. Splashed right into my eye. Again, stupid on my part not to be wearing glasses when I knew I was working with a corrosive material. But yeah, I see people locally selling refurbished batteries if you provide them your bad core. So Im sure they can be revived. I just didn't have luck when I tried to do it myself. I did get to spend 20 minutes in my shower flushing my eyes out though lol.

Yeah whenever I have friend that buys a new TV or something that comes in a box that has the slick painted sides I hound them for the box. I actually have a nice creeper too but I only break it out if I’m going to be under the car for a long time.

Of course! I need to do another video about syncing the timing and inductive delay. Holley touches on it in one of their videos but really doesn’t spend much time showing you how to do it.

Yeah that’s the same type of deal as using another car battery. It will work.

Thank you! The TH-cam algorithm is a fickle mistress so I have my ups and downs, but I’m having fun and have some big plans coming this year.
