Nope, again.

I am moving slow.  Go figure.  I have the laundry about ready to shut down.  And I tried the last sharkbite, it failed as well.  I did review everything I could, I did everything I was supposed to do, it didn't matter.  I just can't trust these items.  Perhaps some work, perhaps there is some trick I don't have, I know there is a tool that is supposed to set the depth gauge exactly which I don't have, but I know I cleaned inside and out of the pipe, I pushed it down until it "popped" and then just a bit more, there isn't much else two it.  Two failures in a row is bad.  I have heard that open bin ones are frequently bad.  Dirt, dust, grease, and whatever else can get in there.  And it wouldn't surprise me if gremlins (plumbers who don't want people diy'ing) messing them up as they pass through.  Yeah, it happens.  There are places to buy them bagged.  But... of course... only plumbers can shop there.

Never mind.  I best get the recycling collected and out, then trash after.  Recycling will be coming very soon though.  Then another nap.  Then a trip to town for kit, ice, and cleaning solution.  At least the stuff I have soldered is fine, I just need a bit more and w.h. connections.  I want to call my mother today, to make sure she is in good order, packed, and planning on seeing me basically later today.  But it will be a bit messy when she arrives.  There is nothing I can do about that.  Later.
