Need help Panasonic AC 1 ton 2025 model outdoor unit loud noise (video attached) – normal compressor sound?
Hi everyone, I recently purchased two Panasonic inverter ACs (2025): 1 Ton - Model CS-SU12AKY3W / CU-SU12AKY3W 2 Ton Panasonic AC The 2 Ton AC works perfectly and its outdoor unit is very quiet. However, the 1 Ton AC initially had a cooling issue, so Panasonic service replaced the outdoor unit. After the replacement the outdoor unit is making a noticeably loud noise (video attached). The technician says this is normal compressor noise, but I'm not convinced because: My 2 Ton Panasonic outdoor unit is almost silent The 1 Ton unit is very louder The noise started only after the outdoor unit replacement Request - If anyone owns this model or a similar Panasonic 1 Ton inverter AC, could you: Check the video I attached Let me know if your outdoor unit sounds similar Share a short video of your outdoor unit running I want to confirm whether this compressor noise is normal or if the outdoor unit is faulty. Thanks! submitted by /u/sleepyhead930 to r/Indore [link] [comments]

anyone have a good video compressor recommendation?
i have multiple videos in a game recorder folder on my pc, and in the last week i've noticed that it takes up almost half my storage (i have about a terabyte, this takes up around 400 gigs). the problem is, im a bit of a hoarder (not in the physical sense, i just have sentimental value to a lot of clips) so i deleted all the clips i didnt really care for (which was a decent amount) however it still takes up around 400 gigs. is there a downloadable video compressor that i can use that will compress it enough to where it's still legible and will actually play? thanks in advance ^_^ .

Hot take: Most of you are way oversizing your generators
Watching everyone scramble before this winter storm and it’s the same thing every time… people buying 8-10kW open frame generators to run… a fridge, some lights, a heater or maybe a furnace and charge their phones. A generator is better than no generator, but before you panic take a step back and think about what you actually need to run in an emergency. There's a decent video on this subject here: What Really Happens on Day 2 of a Power Outage This does not apply to everyone. I have both a 7000W and a 2200W inverter generator. I'm able to use my 2200W the majority of the time in my situation. Everybody's situation, home/loads/infrastructure is different, so keep that in mind. Things like your fuel source for heat, hot water, your water source, inrush current requirements of your appliances, needing 240V, etc. play a huge factor. Let's hypothetically add up your "essential" loads assuming you have NG for heat and hot water: Fridge: 100-400W running, can peak higher for defrost Gas furnace: 400W-600W running Gas tankless water heater: 100W running Lights: 50W-100W Phone charging: 25W WiFi router: 10W TV, computers: 125W You’re looking at 700-1400W depending on whether your furnace is cycling. Maybe 1800W peaks if the fridge compressor kicks on while the furnace runs. So let's pretend you’ve got an 8kW generator running at 15% capacity. It’s guzzling fuel to basically idle, it sounds like a screaming banshee, and you’ll burn through your gas reserves 3-4x faster than you need to. What happens when the outage goes 5+ days? 10 days? Good luck keeping that massive generator fed with 20 gallons a day when gas stations are down or have 2 hour lines. That big generator becomes a very expensive paperweight real quick. Can you maintain 0.75-1 gallon per hour for an extended time? A 2000-3000W inverter generator at that same load is sipping fuel, super quiet, and actually runs efficiently because it’s being loaded appropriately. The majority of the time (depending on the season or what property I'm at) I am able to run an EU2200i with a propane conversion. Having two fuel sources to choose from in a real emergency is huge. I have a 7000W inverter generator for when I need it. 1200W~ average load in my whole house during a real emergency, 15 days of fuel on hand, and I can actually sleep while it runs and not worry about attracting unwanted attention. This will not work for everyone. Every home is different with different loads, e.g. big sump pumps, whole house AC in the summer, electric heat, well pumps, etc. If you're in that boat ignore this post. Just be smart. Try not to panic buy. Take your time to do the math on what you really need during an extended outage. Think about how long you'll actually be able to run those loads. Stay safe out there! submitted by /u/culody to r/Generator [link] [comments]

Can you have an engine without a crankshaft?
Yes, engines can operate without a crankshaft. Designs such as free-piston or rotating-piston engines replace the crankshaft with linear motion systems that drive generators, compressors, or alternative linkages. By eliminating heavy components, they aim for higher efficiency, fewer parts, and better power-to-weight ratios for uses like drones or range extenders. Combustion pushes pistons apart, while compressed air or opposing forces return them. Key challenges include sealing, lower low-end torque, and difficult repairs: https://youtu.be/LMoHGmsgoY8?si=G_G5FQL3Ze8oIaen Video: https://youtu.be/CeCRPaJBxFk?si=0mWGEZRuYJJVZMGC Video: https://youtu.be/UwGewK7WEZU?si=wHnT3YPPvE6DTdOE submitted by /u/Zee2A to r/STEW_ScTecEngWorld [link] [comments]

Launching ShrinkIt for Android - Video compressor that works 100% offline - 200 promo codes available
Hey everyone! I'm excited to launch ShrinkIt for Android. It's a video compression app that works entirely on your device! No cloud, no backend, no uploads! Features: • Compress videos directly on your Android phone • Choose from quality presets (144p, 360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p) or set an exact target size in MB (not fully accurate but works for most part to get media under Discord 10MB limit lol) • Batch compression with queue management - select multiple videos and let them process • Everything stays on your device, 100% private and offline No subscriptions, no ads! Technical details: • Uses on-device compression (react-native-compressor) • All processing happens locally • No internet required • Lightweight and fast May crash depending on the hardware you're using; older android devices are expected to see more of that when compressing large videos. Would love to hear feedback on how it holds up on different devices. I'm giving away 200 promo codes to get it for free lifetime. Looking for honest feedback on what works, what doesn't, and what features you'd like to see. Positive reviews on Play Store would mean a lot too! 😊 ShrinkIt on Google Play EDIT #1: Huge thanks to people who reported issues to fix in app, working on releasing an update asap! EDIT #2: Submitted new version to Play Store with fixes to gallery flickering issue, 28B issue, and some minor ui/ux issues .. Hoping for Play Store to approve it in the next 6-8 hours from now, (2PM EST). Please update for a smoother experience ☺️ submitted by /u/ProgrammingNobody to r/androidapps [link] [comments]

any simple free video compressor app you recommend? My videos are eating up all my storage
Thanks for your help, I got a lot of videos and even transferring them to my PC is eating up a lot of storage. I don't need a 20 min video to be 3 gig. A tenth of that size max is what I need. They are family videos. I changed setting from 60 to 30 fps and made it 720p but that did not make enough of adifference. ios 18.6.2 iphone 16 submitted by /u/Delta_Geminorum to r/iphonehelp [link] [comments]

I built a highly optimized video compressor for iOS that fully utilizes your iPhone’s hardware
Hey everyone! I spent the last two months building a video compression app called Kompresso because I couldn’t find a decent video compressor that takes full advantage of iPhone’s hardware capabilities. What’s the problem with the existing video compression apps? Most video compressors on mobile platforms try to target both Android and iOS. While this approach helps them reach a wider audience, it often leads to same drawbacks: Slow encoding Poor video quality Heavily bloated apps In contrast, Kompresso is a fully native iOS app that uses Apple’s media APIs for both decoding and encoding videos. No third-party media libraries, no unnecessary overhead. This allows it to produce significantly better-looking results while being much faster than the other alternatives. What makes Kompresso special? Fully native (built with Swift and UIKit) Fully hardware-accelerated with AVFoundation and VideoToolBox Super lightweight, with only 13 MBs No ads, no trackers, no photo library access, and no greedy paywalls. Even if you never spend a dime, you can still use all of the features to compress up to three videos every day for free. Try it out let me know what you think! ❤️ App Store --EDIT-- I want to thank everyone for their support and feedback. I honestly didn’t expect this to blow up! I’ve started working on the most requested features and will be launching a TestFlight beta later this week. Public updates will follow soon. Thanks again for all the support! ❤️ submitted by /u/Bariscukur14 to r/apple [link] [comments]

DGN please get an audio engineer that knows what they are doing…the announcers mics are hot and the ambience is too soft. Get a compressor! Half of good video is audio.

Watched a video about installing a car muffler on a noisy air compressor. Went to the shop this morning because it's closed, so no one could interrupt me. Fitted a new, old stock Honda muffler and section of radiator hose to compressor air intake. Welded air filter base to muffler inlet. It works!
