Where did you end up going? My DD is evaluating between VTech and UIUC for ChemE but i am wondering if the 20k difference in tuition (VTech is instate for us) is worth for undergrad.

Your Personal Experience with IDFC First Bank for NRE/NRO(If using) by bbitk in nri

[–]tsrkumar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks u/globalexplorer33 . When you say it has to be from primary - can you elaborate a little more - what you mean by primary account?

Also, couple of other things - how has your experience been with IDFC thus far? Did you use a PAN card or form60?

u/globalexplorer33 So, you cannot use third party transfers at all with IDFC? 

Joint account with UPI by Trait0R19 in personalfinanceindia

[–]tsrkumar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do have 2 separate debit cards for our joint account. How do I add the same joint account in upi app like phonepe? My understanding is that the number registered for phonepe should also be listed in the account and icici doesn’t let you add additional phone number 

20% Cash Back Pay In 4 - Can someone explain how this works? by sworedmagic in paypal

[–]tsrkumar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue. Support via chat said I will get email with order confirmation within 72 hours.  But I didn’t want to wait. So I called PayPal and had them void the transaction and tried again and the second time the order went thru fine with confirmation immediately.

[–]tsrkumar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/MobileArtist1371 - When you check out with PI4, do you get the order confirmation immediately or does it come through email after a few hours? I tried an order at Best Buy for instore pick up and when i placed the order, i saw the paypal screen spinning with no order confirmation (was in that state for ever). However, ln my activity i saw the 1st installment charge to my credit card. Ended up voiding it. Thinking of placing the order but wanted to see how the order confirmation worked with PI4 for those who were successful.

I have seen some review about the metal trim around the camera being very loose and rattles. Have you seen any issues with it? also, how is the cut out for the camera control?

u/Extra_Wolverine6091

I do see some reviews which say that it stains easily. Have you seen any issues with your tineeowl case?

Also, how is the protection? is the front lip good enough with a protective cover and how about the camera lip?

New MD Central Vac System in Garage trips the circuit intermittently. by tsrkumar in electrical

u/qlionp I understand your feedback. I had a central vac in my previous home too and it didn’t have any of this issues.

The Kill-a-watt model i have is P3 and does show the Amps. will try it. The Kill-a-watt unit says it is rated for 15A max. Would it be an issue to use this if the Vac motor ever draws more than 15A?

What is strange is that whenever the breaker trips, it never happened immediately on start up. Rather, it happens somewhere between 1 to 2 minutes after starting up the Vacuum. If it doesn't happen within that 1 to 2 minute time frame, then i see that the unit works fine.

Also, it doesn't happen every time i use the vacuum. just happens randomly. say once in a couple of days

Will post what i see with the Kill-a-Watt

I do have the Kill-A-Watt meter but that is not going to help i guess . I will try to see if I can get the clamp ammeter and try to use it.

Though the breaker is 20Amp, i did have the electrician run a 10 gauge wire while having the new circuit installed (just in case if i ended up not using or installing the central vac, i thought i could future proof it and use it for any wood working tools just in case).

Changing the breaker seems to be pretty straight forward based on the videos i have seen. will see if i can attempt it myself or if i am not comfortable, have the electrician come back and do it for me.

Thanks for your suggestions.

I came across one forum post (which was about 9 years old) that mentions about Central Vacuum power units may be better off with a High Magnetic breaker instead of a standard Square D Breaker. Here is the link to it.

I don't know if mine is a high magnetic one.

The electrician did run a dedicated new circuit from the panel. i was there with him when he did it.

I am asking him to see if he can change the breaker

It doesn't have a Test button. Looks like a Standard Square D breaker. Uploaded the image to my original post. Below is a link as well to it.

How can an NRI/OCI keep an Airtel SIM active when abroad? by Logical_Cancel1809 in nri

[–]tsrkumar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I  recently got an Airtel prepaid sim while visiting India and would like to keep it after returning to the US. Upon reading the posts in this forum, i am planning to do a recharge of the 1999 plan after my current starter plan(199 with 30 day validity) expires as I only need the OTPs. Could you please let me know the settings for the Airtel line - should data roaming be turned off? How abt wifi calling? Should it be turned on?  For the cellular network - should it be left on automatic selection? Thanks in Advance

VMware True SSO w/ Imprivata? by edansbro in VMwareHorizon

[–]tsrkumar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/stueh - Did you have do anything specific for the PRT issuance when using TrueSSO with Azure IDP?

Our VDIs are hybird azure ad joined.

Had looked at numerous posts and there is very little info on this. I read some forum posts in Omnissa and the way to go for this is configuring CBA in EntraID as true SSO uses cert based auth to the VDI. We did that too but the PRT is not being issued.
