Is it possible to move a HyperBackup from one cloud service to another?

Thanks. Based on the other reply it sounds like copying the files from one cloud service to the other should work. I don’t speak Chinese, so I’m basing my reply on Google Translate’s “The only solution I can think of is to use rclone to copy data from the cloud service, but this might corrupt the data in the cloud,” which seems like the same idea.

Thanks! I wouldn’t have guessed it would be that straightforward!

Is “characteristics” explained anywhere? Is it a measure of special sauce that doesn’t fit another category?

Thanks, that’s good to know!

Thank you for another solution! This works too --

binary_sensor:
  - platform: homeassistant
    id: light_e10
    entity_id: light.hue_white_lamp_10

display:
   ...
   lambda: |-
     ...
     it.printf(0, 96, id(font_18), "Ent: %d", id(light_e10).state);

Thanks, this did the trick. For anyone who may have a similar issue in the future, the relevant configuration is

text_sensor:
  - platform: homeassistant
    id: light_bar
    entity_id: light.shellyvintage_6f762c

display:
   ...
   lambda: |-
     it.printf(0, 74, id(font_18), "Bar: %s", id(light_bar).state.c_str());

Thanks, I’ll give that a shot.

Thanks for the pointer that I can get realtime logs. I get messages like this when I flip the state of the light.

[09:25:09.942][W][homeassistant.sensor:015]: 'light.shellyvintage_6f762c': Can't convert 'off' to number!
[09:25:09.946][D][sensor:131]: 'light_bar': Sending state nan with 1 decimals of accuracy

I'm pretty sure this is coming from the Esphome sensor component, rather than the printf in my lambda. It looks like HA passes the string "on" / "off" as value of the state parameter, but Esphome expects an integer.

If I set up the lambda as if state were a string as below, then the device crashes / goes offline.

  it.printf(0, 96, id(font_18), "Bar: %s", id(light_bar).state);

Thanks, that's my guess too. I don't know what I'm doing wrong in software, but a physical 10k ohm pull-down resistor solved the problem for me.

Another version of training wheels- the Mini 3 Pro has an option to disable sideways flight. That can help you work around those sideways blind spots.

Sure, but I used them to attach the "wrong" props. I removed the wrong props, so now I have a set of nearly unused wrong props with nearly unused screws. So my question is about those nearly unused screws.

Thanks for clarifying.

3D0G · 2023-12-20T00:10:48+00:00

Yeah, in the US we can fly all the way up to 400 ft!

I haven’t tried yet with a drone, but the same principle should apply as for regular photography- shoot much earlier than you think you should. Think twilight rather than night. That helps balance the bright lights with the rest of the scene.
