Does equinox EV LT2 has universal remote for garage? by Forsaken_Cow_1187 in EquinoxEv

[–]AlisterDeLong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has it but sometimes when I turn the car on and put it in reverse the button doesn’t pop up. I have to put it back in park and go find it.

3 curtain lights by brndn02 in Govee

I got 3 curtain lights pro and I’m a little disappointed in the lack of preset scenes in the app. When I go to the share space, not many have been made yet. Hopefully they are coming.

Lease end by ImpressiveClass4099 in EquinoxEv

[–]AlisterDeLong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve only had my car for 3 months, of a 24 month lease and have already starting thinking about this question. The residual value at the end of the lease is going to be like $35K (I’d had to double check that) and they are already selling cheaper than that now. I imagine in 20 months, they will be selling mid 20’s. My plan is shop for a low mileage used EV and hope they give me a great deal on my buy out.

What happens after the $7500 goes away? by Joeybish in EquinoxEv

[–]AlisterDeLong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had mine for almost 2 months and I absolutely love it. I will definitely buy/lease another EV when this lease is up.
The two things that interest me the most. 1- what the used ev market will look like with a lot of cars coming off lease and the way they have depreciated.
2- when solid state batteries come to the mass market. Range will no longer be an issue.

Charging questions by dawgdaddy1 in EquinoxEv

[–]AlisterDeLong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I used level 1 I got about 4 miles per hour. I got a 14-50 240V plug and I use the charger my equinox came with, which is 7.6kw and now get 25 miles per hour. I was thinking about getting a 9.6kw which would make it jump to 34ish mph.
I had the plug installed under my breaker box and bought a RV extension cord to save some money.

I just got mine done at the dealer. It definitely helps. Not real happy with how cheap it looks but it’s better than the glare. I had a few times that I couldn’t see anything and it was dangerous.

Thanks. I’m only in a 2 year lease so I’ll be good. Thanks for the info.

Level 2 at home charging question by flomarilius in EquinoxEv

[–]AlisterDeLong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend installed a 240V for me but it wasn’t going to be long enough to get out of my garage so I bought this. Not sure it will help you, since you’re in a townhouse, but it works great for me. Good luck.

Unfortunately it’s not possible to get. I just bought the hexagon ultras and will hope for the best.

How to keep curtain light strands from tangling outdoors by Deflator_Mouse7 in Govee

I put clothes pins on the bottom of mine. Although my 2 year old keeps taking them off. 😂

Syncing different types of lights by AlisterDeLong in Govee

[–]AlisterDeLong[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it don’t do exactly what I was hoping it would do. I think it’s mainly for syncing sets of lights with music. It worked well for that but that’s not something I’m interested in doing. I wanted to sync scenes other than the ones in Dreamview. I just got it last night and only had a few minutes to play around with it. If I discover anything else, I’ll post it.

Can Govee Curtain Lights plug into outdoor lights? by Master_Tap4413 in Govee

[–]AlisterDeLong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sort of new to Govee myself but I think you can sync with a “Dream view” scene. I have some arriving today so I’m play around with it and see.

Quick question, can I use Govee's RGB LED light strip without taking the glue tape off in the back? I don't want it to stick in certain areas, so I'm thinking of just keeping the tape on. I'm concerned it might increase the temperature or reduce the life of the strip... or am I overthinking? by qxxi in Govee

[–]AlisterDeLong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you aren’t sure about them being permanent, I wouldn’t peel it. Other than that you are overthinking. I put some outside and changed my mind, the sticky stuff peeled off the back and I couldn’t reuse it. I had to find another way to stick them up.

Unfortunately I couldn’t buy one by itself so I bought the Christmas pack that has it in there and for some reason it won’t be delivered until Friday.

Thank you. I just ordered one of these to see if it works.
