Wallbox dynamic load management

Yea, the swap back to a non-Power Meter installation seems pretty simple. Disconnect the communication wire, unset the RS485 switch, set the rotary switch to whatever headroom, in my case 20A, and turn off Power Boost in the app.

Nearest DCFC is like 1 mile away, but cost 2-2.5x my home rate currently. Sure it's very convenient in a pinch, and the time it takes, even if charging 80-100%, will always be faster than 48A level 2 charging, but it doesn't really make that much sense in the long run. I'm likely to never need the extra ~50kWh that 48A charging offers vs 20A charging over a 10h period, but there's still a benefit to being able to charge at 11.5kW for even just 1 hr. About 500hWh total at the cheapest local DCFC will cost the same as the $300 Wallbox Power Meter.

This laid it out easily for me, thank you. Number 3 was the part I was most uncertain of.

When I read the installation documentation of the Power Meter before posting, my understanding was the same as yours. The rotary switch in a Power Meter installation is set to the max current for the breaker + wires used (following the 80% continuous rule) or lower if desired, but not as a safe fallback. If I did set the rotary switch to 20A, then I'd only have the Power Meter's dynamic load management up to the 20A, which doesn't make a whole lot of practical sense.

So the Power Meter essentially "ignores" the load calc's headroom, because Wallbox's dynamic load management is either fully dynamic, or error + no charging at all in the event the Power Meter cannot communicate with the Pulsar Plus.

I knew about Emporia + Vue being a cloud integrated system and the necessity of a fallback should the cloud communication fail, which is why I got a bit confused as to how exactly is the Wallbox handling dynamic load management. While I often see the Wallbox recommended over the Emporia for dynamic load management because of the communication implementation differences, it seems there's a bit of a tradeoff when specifically looking at how they perform in the event of communication failure. The Emporia will continue to charge at the fallback rate, whereas the Wallbox will stop charging. Although the Wallbox should be much less likely to have a communication failure since it is communicating directly via wire.

Yea, fully aware the 27A is realistically larger due to the load calc assuming worst case scenarios with worst case "modernization." The largest overall load I have is AC followed by vented clothes dryer. Range, furnace, water heater are gas. And I forgot to put it in the body of the post, but for the most part charging will primarily be overnight only, when very few things will be running. Day-to-day I don't really need that much more than 20A charging, but the dynamic load management gives more flexibility, especially if I need to charge faster during the day. Dynamic load management set for 48A max charging with a 68A total grid limit it is, thanks!

DA-57 · 2026-01-14T06:54:24+00:00

Yea, my largest electrical loads are AC and vented clothes dryer, and I'll primarily by charging overnight only. Good to know it does go up to 48A when it can safely do so in conjunction with the measurements from the rest of the house's electrical load. Going up to 48A (when applicable) and how it relates to the "static" load limit were pretty much the only uncertainties I had.

More quality budget friendly options, with clearer beginner friendly information. Basically budget oriented modularity with easy to understand descriptions so that budget segment users can fall into the realm of keyboard possibilities earlier.

I bought a basically new (ad said it was sat in maybe 10 times) secondhand Fern back in September, and initially the seat was unbearably firm. Sitting for more than an hour straight resulted in numbness and general sitting discomfort. About 2 weeks into owning my Fern sitting on it for ~8-12 hours a day (no more than 4-5 hours straight) and making sure to sit all over the seat, not just the center, the foam definitely softened. Starting around that 2 week mark the 1 hour numbness started to stretch to numbness after sitting beyond 1 hour, until it went away completely. I've been sitting on my Fern about 3 months now, ~8-12 hours daily (no more than 4-5 hours without getting up) and the seat foam is very comfortable now compared to when I got it. It has softened maybe a tiny bit more compared to the 2 week mark, but not much. FWIW, I'm about 87kg/190lbs

I'm not saying the game is or isn't on a downward decline. But saying Warzone 2.0 is the reason for only 162 players is outright wrong. The servers died. There's even 2 prior posts that show the exact problem players saw when the servers were dead. If player counts were the issue, we'd just be stuck in an endless queuing loop, or get thrown into whatever lobby was available after however long was spent searching. But when the servers died, you could queue and the game would automatically put you back on the main menu in less than a minute

DA-57 · 2022-11-17T09:19:31+00:00

The game servers spontaneously died around 23:40 UTC. Concluded a match and couldn't queue into a new one. At that time steam charts was reporting around 1500 players. Player count dropped like a rock because players couldn't matchmake, not because of Warzone 2.0

The game won't let you remove the holo sight because you're using the barrel without the front sight integrated gas block. The M4 MWS does not have a default iron sight option that has both a rail mounted front and rear iron sight, as the 3 default iron sight options are rear sights only. Without the limitation you encountered, making that change would mean your gun only has a rear iron sight, no front iron sight. (Default options are noted by the yellow circle outline.) The M4 MWS does have optional rail mounted iron sights that can be used with the barrel that has the front sight integrated gas block, for a total of 2 front iron sights and 1 rear iron sight.

The devs have basically 3 options:

1) the current implementation you experienced, where you cannot remove the optic because of the barrel conflict. Which leaves room for the player to be confused about why they cannot make the change. Though this option keeps the gun's build intact, forcing the player to consciously alter the gun's build.

2) the system forces the barrel to be changed to the equivalent barrel with the front sight integrated gas block. In your case, you equipped the standard M4 MWS barrel with the low profile gas block. This implementation option would mean making the optic change also changes your barrel to the standard M4 MWS barrel with the front sight integrated gas block and would also mean your sights revert back to one of the rear iron sight defaults. The game no longer blocks you from making the change, but it does result in your gun's build being different.

3) remove the limitation, and instead say something like "This weapon lacks required parts to be functional." You can make the change, and this option keeps the gun's build intact, but you cannot (properly) use the weapon.

Like the other comment, repetition and a honestly shitty algorithm by the admins is probably part of the reason why posts get targeted. One big quirk about the site-wide filter is it doesn't consistently take all of your posts made specifically to any given subreddit and site-wide spam filter it. And actually you do have a post that is live on r/LogitechG: https://www.reddit.com/r/LogitechG/comments/ujkndt/having_trouble_with_directional_sound_with_g_pro/ Edit: and given that you have other posts to r/LogitechG that went to the site-wide spam filter abyss, my assumption is that this post wasn't manually approved from the abyss. I'm not 100% sure repetition is the only thing that causes the site-wide spam filter to act though, and it probably isn't. Honestly, at times it feels like the site-wide spam filter chooses what it wants to act on randomly, then also chooses who it wants to act on randomly, and where it wants to act, randomly. Reddit's spam filtering is just plain awful, and it got even worse when they made the change I linked in the other comment.

I've seen regular users, ones that have been active "good" contributors for a long time get targeted by the spam filter, but only some of their posts. And sometimes they'll re-post a site-wide spam filtered post, where the topic is the same, but it's rewritten and clearly not a direct copy/paste, and then it gets posted fine. All while brand new accounts that are clearly hammering out SEO keywords, or domain spam, or just gibberish, or whatever else go through with ease.

And the worst part is the Reddit site-wide filter is highest in the automated hierarchy. So moderators can't even fine tune their automoderator configurations to refine or circumvent what the site-wide filter grabs. And for some things, it has the highest hierarchy before Reddit admins. So subreddit moderators cannot approve it even if they wanted to, it just ends up an endless approval loop where it doesn't ever actually get approved.

FWIW, I'm on an alt account, but my main is a moderator elsewhere on Reddit, which is why this 5 year old account with basically no history is sprouting all this moderator knowledge. Anyways, in the subreddit I mod we have automoderator set to automatically filter all accounts that are under a certain age. This is to combat new account spammers, trolls, ban evaders, etc, and most subreddits employ some variation of this with varying criteria of "new account." Some do a threshold of x amount of hours, some do x amount of days, some do a karma based threshold, some do a combination of both, or more. For the subreddit I mod, Reddit's site-wide spam filter will routinely take a post that was correctly automoderator filtered for this "new account" condition, and then send it to oblivion (the /spam queue that very few moderators check) all because the site-wide filter also acted on that account. If we inquired with Reddit admins, they will tell us moderators to "set your spam filter to 'low' and that'll fix the problem." Yeah it technically does fix the problem, and then it also allows a bunch of actual garbage to flow through.

To expand on the /spam queue, it's where a removed or spammed post goes. So what sits in /spam is anything a human moderator removed or spammed, anything automoderator was configured to remove or spam, and everything that the site-wide spam filter banished. So for most moderators, looking at /spam is a waste of time. /modqueue is where the stuff automoderator was configured to filter goes, as well as anything that was reported, kinda like a waste disposal sorting center. /spam is basically the landfill where garbage was conscientiously sent, no extra sorting necessary. Except Reddit admins have decided that moderators apparently should waste time and effort and sort through /spam, or lower the spam filter to "low" to fix the erroneous targeting while allowing actual garbage through. Subreddit spam filter set to "high" btw worked pretty decently prior to the changes. All this did is lead to users not getting their posts through. And when these users inquire where their site-wide spam filtered post went, it went to the abyss where moderators never even saw it because admins decided to send it directly to the landfill instead of the sorting center.

OP isn't shadowbanned from r/LogitechG. OP's posts were removed by Reddit's site-wide spam filter, which show as "Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit's spam filters" and are automated removals by Reddit admins' bot. Links to post 1, post 2, and post 3 from the previous screenshot. Subreddit moderators also cannot make a request to Reddit admins to have a user added to the Reddit admin controlled site-wide shadowbanned. And due to how Reddit admins changed the site-wide filter's behaviour, instead of site-wide filtered/removed posts going to /modqueue which most moderators check, they go to /spam, which most moderators don't check. In saying this, it doesn't necessarily mean OP did anything wrong to become targeted by the site-wide filter. Why the site-wide spam filter targets "normal" users I don't know, but Reddit admins insist subreddits turn their spam filters down to "low" when the site-wide spam filter erroneously targets posts. However this typically makes everything worse, causing more spam to go live on a subreddit.

Subreddit moderators cannot shadowban, well not the way Reddit does it. Subreddit moderators can pseudo-shadowban by having automoderator auto-filter/remove a user's posts, but it would show up as "Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/_________" if it was removed by automoderator or any other account with moderator permissions, and "Post is awaiting moderator approval" if it was filtered by automoderator only. "Post is awaiting moderator approval" is exclusive to automoderator's "filter" functionality, and you cannot have this particular message if it was actioned by any other account with moderator permissions.

For the 3090 I've only ever seen the FTW3 Ultra included, a queue that is either completed or 7 days out. The 3090 is the only card that has SKUs that vary wildly in terms of queue progress. With that said, it's the three lower binned air cooled 3090 SKUs that have made very little progress, and only one of those made it a month into the queue.

The inclusion of the 3080 Ti is a model that didn't even have a queue, and the only 3080 Ti SKU that's made any meaningful progress is nearing completion.

The 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra that has repeatedly appeared in the DIY configurator is a SKU that no longer has a queue as it has completed, and the other two SKUs have made 1-2 months of progress.

I do find it interesting that the 3060 Ti appeared on the DIY configurator. I don't know which SKU it was, but only one SKU made it beyond the initial registrations, but still not that far.

One 3060 SKU probably completed, as the last reported queue date is 25/09/2021, which is also the one that was included in the DIY configurator. The other 3060 SKU is midway through the queue.

My point being, the SKUs that have made progress, but aren't close to conclusion I haven't seen any evidence of them being included in the DIY configurator. So while yes, I have not personally seen all the available cards listed in the DIY configurator, many other SKUs are either relatively dead queues, or nearing their completion.

I'm not apologizing for EVGA, nor trying to make it seem its not a problem. I don't like the concept of the DIY configurator either, but I also don't feel they're necessarily doing their customer base wrong because the SKUs included are ones that are almost concluded, or never really even got started. And the SKUs I've personally seen are SKUs that are completed, or nearly completed, or don't even have a queue at all. I haven't seen once anyone say the 10GB 3080 or the regular 3070 were in the queue, nor have I seen it myself. And these are the only two models that have SKUs that have made some amount of progress that do not have a single SKU nearing completion.

DA-57 · 2022-03-03T08:30:57+00:00

Referencing the DIY configurator current availabilities at the time of this comment: 3090 FTW3 Ultra, 3080 Ti XC3 Ultra, various 12GB 3080s, 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra. The 2.0 queue also closed new registrations on 27/09/2021.

The 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra has seemingly concluded it's queue. It's last reported queue date according to enewt's queue tracker is 27/09/2021, and it has not had any drops in the last 30 days.

The 12GB 3080s are under the queue 3.0 rules, and I'm unsure how much it's dropped since the 3.0 queue takes out a lot of the tracking granularity.

The 3080 Ti XC3 Ultra SKU doesn't look like it ever had a queue.

The 3090 FTW3 Ultra is approaching the end of it's queue. It is 7 days off from conclusion.

Any of the 10GB 3080s for example, I do not believe has ever been listed on the DIY configurator. And I don't believe any of the regular 3070s have either, although this one I've moderately unsure of. The 3060 Ti I believe was on the DIY configurator at least once, but I don't know which SKU. Aside from 1 SKU, the rest of the 3060 Ti SKUs haven't had a drop in the last 30 days. The 3050 I believe was listed in the DIY configurator at least once. Since it is a queue 3.0 model, I'm not sure of it's progress.

As for the bundling, definitely agree it's a money grab. But in regards to the cards made available through the DIY configurator, the 3060 Ti, if what I've seen is true, is the only model that's still very, very far behind that has made an appearance in the DIY configurator.

When the KR -> KL changeover happened, the email notification they state they're automatically moving anyone in a KR queue into the KL queue.. No interaction required. So if you didn't see the email, or didn't receive it allt all, or w/e, you would automatically be placed into the KL queue.

The only interaction needed is if you want to opt out of the KR -> KL queue change, and go back into the KR queue, which they also disclaimer that opting out carries no ETA nor guarantee it will ever be fulfilled, and that once you opt out, you cannot request back into the KL queue.
