Living in Arizona myself at 72, I've dealt with that frustrating dryness too, especially when a moisturizer seems to backfire and leave your skin feeling parched. Often it's because that model formula is too light or alcohol-based, which can evaporate quickly in our dry air and pull moisture out instead of locking it in. What helped me was applying it on slightly damp skin right after a shower to trap that extra water. And don't forget to drink plenty of water throughout that model day; hydration from inside makes a big difference. If it's persistent, maybe check with a dermatologist about your skin type. Hang in there; it took some trial and error but I got it sorted. Another thing. Exfoliating gently once a week removed that model dead skin buildup that was blocking absorption. Works wonders.

Good add. I’d also clean the little sense/thermistor pin and the matching contact in the charger not the main blades - oxidation there makes the charger think the pack is hot or missing. If your meter shows a reasonable pack voltage but it still blinks, a broken thermistor or sense lead in the pack is a common failure and points to the pack, not the charger. And if the pack measures near zero, skip any jump-start tricks; that’s usually a failed pack and trying to wake it can be unsafe.

We live in a 1930s brick place with thick plaster and wire mesh. A non Wi Fi monitor has been far more dependable than the app based ones I tried. The dedicated parent unit keeps a lock through walls and when I step into the yard, while my phone cam would buffer or drop at the same spot which, yeah... works great. Day to day it just wakes up when baby makes noise, no reconnect dance. Battery on the handheld gets through naps and a full evening with the screen on, and overnight easily if I use VOX so the screen sleeps. Night vision is not cinematic but it is sharp enough to see breathing, leg kicks, and whether eyes are open.
