DIY: How to keep wrench sockets from falling out of the socket wench case.

I made a quick case diy mod after dropping my sockets out. i got a DeWalt 1/4″ Drive 50 PC Tool Set on sale for $19 at Costco. I seen similar DeWalt 1/4″ drive kits online: https://amzn.to/2mIhAO5

The kit was good and I have it with me when i travel. Like one of the viewers said, the sockets fall out if you open it the wrong way. i dropped the sockets once or twice. i basically used some clear plastidip on my socket case for more friction.

Coleman Water Carrier 5 Gallon – 5+ Year REVIEW – Annual Cleaning and Maintaining.

Here is a quick long term review Coleman Water Carrier 5 Gallon and an annual cleaning and maintenance. We have owned these water carriers for camping, and having emergency water available during an water outage or disaster. Its been over 5 years of use. Normally recycle the water every November, and clean and check the parts.

These water carriers are available online (affiliate links) :

Other similar water storage containers for camping: https://amzn.to/2OhuCfy
55 Gallon Blue Drums: https://amzn.to/35bKyGS

Cleaning: We empty the water to the garden and take apart the faucet. We clean the gasket and check for MOLD. We wash everything with hot soapy water and rinse everything before refilling with tap water. We should have added a drop or two of bleach to lower the chance of mold growth. We must have forgotten to do that last year.

We found that the Coleman faucets ( https://amzn.to/2NRh3V7 ) have cracked so we had to order the online. We also keep rain water in 55 gallon barrels, which i will make a video later.
Thanks for watching or reading!

Honda Clarity Vlog – Tip#007: Check Engine Lights @ 11,000 miles – 12 Volt Reset!

Welcome Honda Clarity Tip and Vlog (RTwC) episode 007! I am at 11,053 miles and 7 months of ownership with my Honda Clarity PHEV. This morning I got Check Engine Light (CEL) and other systems sending alerts on my dash board. Brake system problem, Hill assist problem, Engine error, TMPS sensor problem and other issues popping up.

I have full charge on my PHEV battery and a full tank of gas. The temperature was 74 degrees so it wasnt cold. I drove it around the block and the CEL light did not clear. So having to go to work, I opened the hood and disconnected the 12 volt battery for 5 minutes. With most cars this will reset or have the car’s computer clear some codes to recheck what was wrong. While under the hood, i checked the oil, brake, coolant, and windshield liquid levels. Everything was a good levels except the wind shield fluid (https://amzn.to/2K1tqvB ) which i added more. I closed the hood and drove the Honda Clarity around the block and the CEL lights cleared and never came back. UPDATE* It has not reappeared even after 200 miles of driving. If in doubt bring it to a Honda Dealer to check!

The Honda Clarity is a pretty great car with good designed an comfortable ride. I believe Honda programming my have its initial bugs as this was the first model year.
Among other things I will be driving her as a commuter care and a roadtrip car, as I got all weather mats for her ( https://amzn.to/2VIaxBh ) which were great with all the road trips!
