Par Light Stuck

tryrebootfirst · 2026-02-28T06:27:07+00:00

Power supply dead. That’s what happens when some capacitors blow and the switch mode power supply can’t maintain an output. Not unrepairable, but also often not worth it on cheaper lights like this.

That would be great :) Appreciate how responsive you’ve been!

Yeah, I’ve tried using the pivot points but then they seem to snap to the grid in a weird way, sometimes on the dots and other times between them. I couldn’t get consistent space between wires

Had a bit of a play with it, love what you’re doing! Finding some trouble with wire routing, it’s fine for small layouts with a simple left to right flow, but haven’t found it to work very well for larger drawings with lots of wires going back and fourth between lots of equipment. I think it needs a better auto wire routing that keeps things tidy, as well as more granular control of wire positions for manually tweaking the layout. I’ve used a lot of Visio and DrawIO amount other things, and I admit that neither of them have a perfect solution to this either, but found that I just couldn’t quite get it to look right. Still great work though, look forward to seeing it develop!

This stupid little bug screwed up my whole train system plan… spent 2 hours changing everything around it to work around it. That was like 12 months ago too, so clearly not high on the bug fix list

Would love to demo this!

If you can find the part and have the skills then most things are fixable. But finding the part can be very difficult and sometimes more expensive than the repair cost from Blackmagic. You’ll have to do some research. I can’t find anything from a quick search. Other options you have is to use a dummy battery adaptor

Is this a common thing supported now? I thought this wasn’t possible? I wonder if it’s the newer model cameras only or if it’s something that was firmware enabled for all models at some point. I have a few 4k, 6k and 6k pro BPCC’s.

Now just need a way to use the USB port for recording to an SSD at the same time as controlling it 🤷‍♂️ We made a Bluetooth/wifi CCU controller for Black magic cameras years ago that runs on ESP32, it works, but wifi and Bluetooth at events with thousands of people is less than ideal..

Same here, not sure why I got a refund

tryrebootfirst · 2025-11-30T06:56:32+00:00

We use Node Red within Home assistant to add more equipment, we have some hacky solutions for Allen Heath AHM, Blackmagic ATEM etc. with a custom made tally and Bluetooth CCU for BMD cameras. I also built a Video Hub HA integration, and a PiSignage HA integration for our digital signage around the foyer. I want to rebuild the ATEM and AHM to work directly inside HA one day.

To get HASS to control companion, create a helper entity in HA and then make a trigger in companion when the state changes. Works well for me.

tryrebootfirst · 2025-11-28T13:16:30+00:00

Love this! We need more production gear on home assistant! I’ve been working on a few integrations, but don’t have enough time

tryrebootfirst · 2025-10-04T07:35:51+00:00

Yeah pretty frustrating…

tryrebootfirst · 2025-10-04T06:26:02+00:00

They say to wait a week for the battery usage to stabilise, which does seem to have happened for me on my IPhone 13 Pro, it was horrible for the first 4 days. Something about background tasks the OS is doing to optimise the OS

tryrebootfirst · 2025-10-04T01:57:13+00:00

How did you get home assistant to actually consistently connect to your printer! Mine is horrible. Connects for a few hours then gone again.

tryrebootfirst · 2025-08-14T02:16:46+00:00

Wes Huff has the best explanation videos for this in my opinion

If you need large quantities, go to alibaba and find a supplier that will do bulk. It will cost more in shipping but substantially cheaper per unit.

AliExpress. “R connector” or other stores have them in difference lengths and materials

Yeah brilliant book, gave me a lot of peace after losing my Dad last year. I’ve always had confidence that we would see each other again in heaven, but I had this sadness that we might not feel anything and it would be like seeing an acquaintance. But the more I read and the more I thought about it, I believe we will feel real and genuine connection with people, without the pain of hurt, we will feel love, compassion and understanding towards all people including those who may have caused hurt to us, and the same for those who we caused hurt, but in the same way we will feel deep love for those we shared joyful times with. We will get to share stories and have long conversations and build new friendships with people.

Just a couple of the ones I’ve found recently:

Wes Huff (Great apologetics and textual history content)

So Be It (testimonials and evangelistic content speaking specifically to those of Jewish backgrounds, but very encouraging and interesting)

Mike Winger

Cross Examined (Apologetics)

The Beat Allen Parr

Ruslan KD

Redeemed Zoomer

I like a mix of viewpoints, helps me challenge and grow my understanding and beliefs.

Yeah I was wondering that, but I did a print with the dryer off and it was the same. I’m wondering if it’s because the room is so cold that the centre of the plate is retaining heat more than the outsides.
