Yes, same question.

Hi Flech, thanks for your comment. Yes, there's give and take with these portable power stations. Big benefit of this one is the features vs cost... esp. when compared to the ecoflows, bluettis, etc

@@magnoliaoakswoodshop i would agree if solar was there. Solar charging is very important not only for solar but also if you have some battery setup at home. This one is then limited to 12v dc charging up to 100W. That is a big fail, if they at least made it so i can take 24v charging (which would be 200w solar) i would say ok. This way, red flag. Bluetties that you mention in this category have 500-1000W of solar imput, and yes, they are more expensive - but also with better balance of features.

Thanks for watching. I appreciate your support of the channel...

Thanks for your comment. Yes, the bigger the battery, the better :)

Thanks for your message. Yes, I 100% agree. They are great tools for the price and I have 5-6 in my shop.

Thank you for your kind words... I appreciate it..

Thanks for your comment. I don't vent outside. I exhaust directly into the purifier and no smell unless the filters get super dirty. Just have to replace pre-filter every week or so if using often most days... Works great

Hi Cindy, thanks for your comment. Sorry about that... Looks ok over on my side. Will try to look into what I can do to improve...

Thanks for your comment. Yes, you can however the table is fairly light in weight so I don't think you could put alot of weight / downward pressure on it without tipping over.

Hi Antonio, thanks for your comment! I can't say that I've noticed it. Seems like it vibrates and sounds like most other reciprocating saws I've owned, but I CAN say its been real workhorse for me over the years...

Thanks for your comment. I haven't used a straight edge but not seen or had any issues with it not being level..

Hi Flori, thanks for your question. 1. Yes, I always leave it on the machine. No need to remove it in my daily workflow. 2. I thought it would, but it hasn't yet. Biggest thing is to just make sure the crumbtray is accurately aligned inside the machine and your front/side doors are closed. I use the external xtool air purifier and its worked fine..

Thank you for checking out my videos. I appreciate it..

Hi Joel, thanks for your comment. We've been using it pretty extensively in our daily jobs and its been working really well so far :)

Thanks for your comment. Yes, I agree with you. Definitely a place for other sanders in the shop, but for the money, and what it can do... well... its a great value for my business.

Hi Chris, thanks for your comment. Yes, I agree 100%. Seems like it would be a very easy feature to add..

Thanks for your comment. Yes, I was on the fence as well but I've been using it pretty heavily for the past few months and don't have much to complain about... Esp. for the price

Thanks for your comment and helpful comment. I'm from South Louisiana so sometimes I talk a little slower so I increase the audio speed when doing the final edits :). Will try to slow.... it.... down...

Were your jobs doing some serious lifting on birch ply or something? Because I work with straight hardwood and it's lasting me weeks at a time. If you're gumming it up with acrylic, glue from the ply, etc. I can't imagine it would last long, but for folks doing hardwood engraving it's amazing.

@@alexorhuxley I’m using 1/4” birch plywood and switched to and inline fan but after a couple of projects it smokes up my space. We’re thinking that the exhaust hose needs to be shortened and vented straight out without slack in it. My p2 is in my quilt store so smoke is a no no.

Thanks for your comment. Hmmm... Not sure why this would be unless you're cutting some really nasty stuff. I use mine, for my business, 5 days a week for 2-4 hours per day and need to change out filter about once a quarter. Now I DO change out the pre-filter every week so I'm sure that helps

Hi Michael, thanks for your comment. Yes, you do need the riser for the passthrough. Riser is pretty important for MANY tasks like thicker material engraving, using the rotary, etc.

Hi Josaih, Thanks for your comment. They are holding up well. No issues so far.

@@magnoliaoakswoodshop awesome! I'm a carpenter by trade and am looking to get some new chisels but wasn't sure about the longevity or durable of these one. Appreciate the feedback!

Thanks for your comment. Probably around 6-8"

Thanks Mona for your comment.... I appreciate you're checking out my channel.

Thanks Andrew for your comment.... I appreciate you're checking out my channel.

Thanks Raoul for your comment.... I appreciate you're checking out my channel. I'm happy to help. I certainly have learned most of what i know by other kind youtubers sharing their experiences... Definitely has saved me MANY hours of frustrations..

Hi Bobby, thanks for your comment. Might need to be sure you select BOTH objects first, if not already done so... Seemed to work for me when doing that

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I realized that later on the fan noise. Will handle that for future videos...

Thanks for your comment.... I appreciate that your checking out my channel!

Thanks for your comment! No issues at all. Would definitely recommend to save some $$ if possible

Thanks for your comment! Glad to help. Just let me know if I can help in any other way.

Thanks for your comment! Yes, I tested v2 of the XCS software and found (as of today) it still has alot of bugs to work out before its going to be a non-beta version of the software. You can always uninstall 2.0 and just download the previous version from the xtool website.

Hi Ricky, thanks for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Just let me know if you have any other products you'd like me to review...

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I've had this circular saw for a loooonnngg time and it keeps chugging along...

Thanks for your comment! Yes, the necessity for a air purifier is dependent on where you are running the laser machines for sure. For the money, this particular unit has worked out well for me and think its a good value for what it does.

@@magnoliaoakswoodshop I went ahead and purchased it, seems to work good. Thanks again

Hi Derek, thanks for your comment! I know what you mean. I am a longtime Lightburn user as well but had to learn XCS when I got my P2 CO2 laser. Its very simple software to learn, fortunately, and is really the only way to use most of the advanced functionality of the xtool new line of lasers.

Glad to see this. I felt the same way. Its clogged after like 15 jobs here. I will try this prefilter hack and see how it goes.

Hi John, thanks for your comment! To answer your question, how fast it fills up depends on what you're cutting / engraving. I mainly engrave wood and my filter last me around 3 months or so with moderate use (maybe 30-50 jobs per month). Pre-filter is key and changing that out every week or so also helps greatly. If smelling alot of smoke, I would add some HVAC tape around the exhaust port / any exhaust connection points to try and mitigate any leakage.

Thank you for your comment! Just let us know if we can be of any help to you :)

Please see about ..how do I apply to each material please help thanks

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you got value from the video. I know when I started out with XCS, this feature was key to helping me engrave better quality and saved ALOT of testing time and wasted materials.

But how do you apply to each material ?

Thanks for your comment. All you need to do is open pull on that orange handle around the belt and slide off the old one / slide on the new one :)

I can not get my unit to tilt like yours, not letting me slide a belt on. @@magnoliaoakswoodshop

Thank you for your comment.. Glad I could help. Good luck with your S1 and F1... Those are awesome machines!

Hi Joe, thanks for your comment! The spacing seems to be around 2 inches. Hope this helps.

I have the same router and was considering this table. Did you ever get anything sorted out? Thanks

Thanks for your comment! I appreciate your subscription and support. If I can be of any help, just let me know...

Thank you Anthony for the kind words... Glad to have that baby finally finished... Its REALLY been handy to have around the shop..

You are absolutely right... Poor Beth. I know better now for next time :)
