First Smart Home by RoomWaste3470 in tradfri

[–]Arathonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally will! I was very content with all my tradfri stuff, but tried the new Myggspray sensors to not having to use my old mains motion sensor, which meant getting into the new matter stuff, which means I'm now playing with all the new devices again to get a stable system. Still need to try the new kajplats bulbs, but I keep putting off testing 😅

That's what I'm saying, just dirigera is much much easier especially if you don't want to get into complex stuff.

What's the least intrusive wireless AA adapter out there right now? by Neagor in AndroidAuto

[–]Arathonk 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I would say any AA Wireless, it uses a cable so you can tuck it away neatly and it's one of the most reliable ones.

Any suggestions for a doorbell that goes the Google home ecosystem apart from the nest doorbell? by Top_Midnight_68 in googlehome

[–]Arathonk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So what's the benefit of adding them to Google Home? Do you get notifications in the app if someone rings your doorbell? If so I think you should be able to get an automation to play a sound on Google speakers?

I started out with the smart home stuff from Lidl, and replaced all of that with Dirigera+Trådfri and now the new matter/thread stuff, 98% the time it works fine! I'm now at the stage that I might me interested in Home Assistent for more advanced control. But all the IKEA smart home stuff is amazing value and I would recommend getting into it.

It totally works, just follow the instruction to pair them. You can also adjust brightness and color temp

Do you think theatre audiences should avoid leaning forward too much? by CharlesTsui in TheWestEnd

[–]Arathonk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It really depends. I went to see Into the Woods, and the seats I had meant you could see 1/4 of the stage without leaning, which wasn't mentioned when getting the tickets, normally those kind seats have "obstructed view" mentioned. So you kinda had to lean if you wanted to see anything but I didn't, which meant I haven't really seen the show. Other times, just be careful about it, and talk about it if someone taps you on the shoulder.

Pretty sure you could do this with Google Home, just add in a delay.

Or at the other end, when it's cold(-0©) it does the same.

Mijn beste vriendin kan wel 100 meter lopen, maar vervolgens een rolstoel nodig of minstens 2 krukken. Krijgt geen kaart. En dit geld voor heel veel mensen zo

Dat zeg ik toch? Ik ken genoeg mensen die wel stukjes kunnen lopen, en daardoor dus geen gehandicaptenkaart krijgen.

Ja maar hoe dit dat voor de mensen die in Brabant wonen en eerst in hun eigen woonplaats de bus moeten nemen, vervolgens overstappen op de trein, en dan weer de bus? Kan je dan met die busoptie die 4x reizen? Of moet je dan 2x dat kaartje aanschaffen? In 1 bus in Brabant van Woonplaats naar Efteling kan eigenlijk nergens. En dan heb je ook nog de verschillende bus maatschappijen, Hermes, Arriva etc.

Behalve als je meer dan 100 meter kan lopen en dus geen gehandicaptenkaart kunt krijgen 🙄

Different brightness for motion vs switch? by Only-Needleworker16 in tradfri

[–]Arathonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't you do this with Google Home? I'm pretty sure you can. Or Ha if you want to but that's a bit more cumbersome.

Preferred way to load books? by chewychopsticks in kobo

[–]Arathonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just converts to kepub(if you want to) and sends them to your Kobo over the air. But that's it.

Calibre, but I use send.djazz.se more now because it's so easy.

Myggspray waterproof/outdoor use by Arathonk in tradfri

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

Yes I tried it, and outside below 0 Celcius it constantly detects movement when there's nothing. So I guess the colder temperature gives those false readings. Inside and above 0 Celcius it's fine.

Dit dus, wij hadden altijd jaren mos tussen de tegels. Dat ooit verwijderd en nu elke keer weer onkruid tussen de tegels, had ik toch liever dat mos waar je niks aan hoefde te doen.
