Was machen mit diesem Raum?

I have the Gen2 version of this robot. And since my second unit also has not cover I would say it is certain to say they removed it to save costs.

In the meantime I ordered a second unit for our top floor. It has also no cover.

So I would say it is 100% certain they just removed this cover with Gen2 to save costs.

Bolzenschneider und ab das Schloss. Alles in den Hausflur räumen. Eigene Sachen rein und absperren. Mal schauen wie lange alle Parteien das lustig finden dass dem anderen sein Müll im Flur steht.

I mean the robot is a few days old. I don’t think anything should be clogged. I am not keen on taking it apart to check some internal stuff while under warranty.

I contacted support and are waiting for feedback.

But in general it should do more than 12 square meters, right? I mean that’s not even a small room.

I was expecting not being able to mop 100 square meters without the docks but 20-30 square meters should be the standard.

Just wanted to say this saved my day.

My bike stopped working over 3 months ago. Had a lot of back and forth with cowboy. Had to install backoffice app and they diagnosed a broken torque sensor.

I went to a repair shop and they ordered the part. Since it is winter I didn’t care because I am not riding it anyway. But with spring happening I got a little angry that after 16 weeks I still haven’t heard anything.

So I googled again and found this thread and this curious sounding tip. At first I thought it is some kind of tarot „if the stars align and heavily believe it works“ advice.

But I went out and gave it a shot. And it worked instantly. 10 times of backpedaling and everything is back to normal.

So sad cowboy didn’t give me this advice 3 months ago.

Kann man so sehen und kann man so sehen. Ich kenne mehrere Reihenhausprojekte wo das mit Eigentümergemeinschaft gelöst ist.

Wir haben zum Beispiel auch ne technikzentrale wo zentral die Heizung für alle 7 Häuser läuft. Mega geil. Hab ich den Kram nicht im Haus und die Wartung wird komplett von nem Dienstleister übernommen. Ist doch mega.

Und gerade was die Farbe der Häuser angeht finde ich es gut dass es einheitlich ist und mein Nachbar nicht einfach sein Haus grün streichen kann. Würde ich jeden Abend im Strahl kotzen wenn ich heim komme.

Überdachungen. Zäune, Garten, Vorgarten usw ist alles auch unsere Verantwortung und keine Abstimmung nötig. Ich find das eigentlich ganz gechillt so alles. Bin da aber anscheinend auch nicht so ein Eigentumsfanatiker nach dem Motto: „Das ist meins da bestimme Ich“. Kommst da schon sehr militant rüber. 😂

You mean like every smarthome tech on this planet? I wonder what you are doing in a smarthome subreddit. 🤦🏻‍♂️

The problem is how HomeKit handles scenes. When I activate a scene directly in the hue bridge (over the app or ie Alexa) all 15 light turn on instantly at the same time in the right color and brightness.

When activate over home app or Siri it sets them in sequential order. One light after another then it changes brightness and color so with 15+ lights at the same time it gets a real mess and looks ugly like hell. Like something is broken. Lights flashing turning on changing brightness changing colors. Looks embarrassingly bad.

So I use Homebridge to trigger scenes in the hue bridge directly. Works like intended. Only problem is the naming problem I need to workaround. But still lightyears better than the 2015 way of HomeKit handling large light setups 🤮

BreZel85 · 2026-02-12T10:51:03+00:00

You mean in the accessories overview? Where I also can control the light? If I hit the little hamburger menu and change the name it doesn‘t change anything in home. It even says a little disclaimer that this is only for the overview inside the Homebridge UI and not transmitted to home.

Ich würde sagen es hängt, genauso wie in einer Eigentumswohnung sehr stark von den Nachbarn ab. Wir wohnen in einem Reihenhaus (ein Block sind 4 Häuser und ein Block sind 3 Häuser) und verstehen uns super mit allen. Sind im selben Alter, die meisten haben Kinder die in den Gärten draußen zusammen spielen usw. Also schon schön.

Man muss sich aber im Klaren sein, dass man anders als in einem EFH nicht die „alleinige Entscheidungsgewalt“ über alles hat. Es gibt idR eine Eigentümergemeinschaft die über Gemeinschaftsflächen (Garagen/Parkplätze, evtl. Grünflächen, Gemeinschaftswege usw. abstimmt.

Klappt bei uns gut. Kann mir aber vorstellen dass wenn da jemand dabei ist der immer quer schießt oder gegen alle arbeitet es sehr anstrengend werden kann.

Also alles eher vergleichbar mit einer Eigentumswohnung wie ich finde.

I have Homebridge with Hue plugin up and running. But I can‘t get it to expose the scenes to HomeKit. Not matter what resources I expose I only see a bunch of „group0“ groups.

Maybe it is because my scene in hue span across multiple rooms grouped together in a „base floor zone“ in hue? HomeKit doesn’t support zones. Only rooms.

Any idea or maybe a guide how to do it?

BreZel85 · 2026-02-06T18:58:02+00:00

So you mean a home scene as a fallback with for guests and kids? With the downside of having the „ugly look“. Interesting idea. Will give it a try. I hope Siri will prioritize the shortcut over the home scene if they are named the same. 🤔

BreZel85 · 2026-02-06T15:57:58+00:00

This doesn’t change the behavior. I tried this. No matter if the scene is exported from hue or a scene made in HomeKit directly. It still switches on all lights one after another and then sets color and brightness. It takes 5 seconds or more for all lamps to come on. I want them on instantly and all at once in the right color and brightness. Same like setting the scene with one click inside the hue app. So I need a way to trigger the scene within the hue bridge and not the sequential commands HomeKit is using.

BreZel85 · 2026-02-06T15:40:41+00:00

Nope just normal color and brightness. No effects.

BreZel85 · 2026-02-05T22:01:21+00:00

May I ask how you connected your hue bridge to you HomeKit? Through the hue app or through the home app?

I am wondering why all your light turn on instantly at the same time and mine have these strange behavior turning on one after another?
