I use a Drevo Joyeuse for travel because it’s very low profile and wired/wireless

Drevo is out of business though :(

Goodwills are general worse in my opinion.

They set up an auction site and now all the good stuff is up for auction instead of sitting on shelves

It’s just a theory based off of my own experience, but if that’s the issue, it kinda depends on how large the capacitors are and what kind of capacity they’re capable of holding.

If it is the issue, I’d expect it to take like 5 minutes for it to discharge completely, but that’s just a guess. If everything is already out of its usual place, you could probably test it if you’re curious enough.

It’s hard to tell without a circuitry layout, but my best guess is that there’s probably capacitors in the power brick acting as an electrical filtration for the motors to make them operate smoothly and reliably.

The capacitors are probably discharging some electricity that are keeping some circuit protective device alive. Unplugging the power brick is probably the only true way to completely remove electricity from the unit.

Testing is a name?

Also, if you have a warehouse membership from like Sam’s Club or Costco, they often have the synthetic oil you need for an absurdly low price.

I was buying 5 quarts of oil for like $20-30, I bought a 4 pack of Costco brand 5 quart motor oil for like $40

The diode is a fly back diode, it’s just circuit protection no need to worry about it.

One of my old coworkers dads worked at a canning plant. He said his dad was in charge of the labeling and claims that almost all canned food is the same.

He said they’d run x amount of green giant labels, x amount of del monte, x amount of best choice, etc all from the same batch.

I’m with you, my dishwasher is more of a sanitation device than a washer.

So AC devices typically are just a low profile plug and wire. Since they natively run on your houses power source there’s not much going on other than internal fusing which doesn’t really take up that much space.

Most electronics, however, are DC, a lot of electronics are being made as dual voltage. Regardless, this means that the device needs some kind of voltage converter. Manufacturers can either build the converters into the unit itself, or they can build the converter into the plug circuitry and save space on the item the consumer is handling. Consumers have vastly chosen to deal with bulky wires and slim devices.

Especially when every marginal improvement is priced way too highly compared to the 2% worse version
