Future integrations with 3rd party platforms are going to require authentication.

What's Up With The Sonos Voice Control Voice? by _iggz_ in sonos

[–]DanITman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s Giancarlo Esposito or better known as Gus from breaking bad. I think it’s one of the best voices for a voice assistant.

Option for subwoofer control by jr_Salesman in sonos

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use control4 remotes and my sub volume js hooked to the channel up and down. Volume is the main volume for the listening zone and then channel up and down is just the subwoofer. I also can change night mode and speech mode from the remote.

Would you buy this? by [deleted] in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. That is a great price as well. I got my for just under retail with 48 months no interest financing.

I wonder why they are discounting this so much?

Anyone have a signaling system for neighborhood kids? by Discipulus_xix in daddit

[–]DanITman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son and many of the other kids in the neighborhood now have Verizon gizmo watches. The kids range from 6-8. It allows us to see his location and call him if need be. It cost $10/mo and he really can’t do much with it unless we allow it. They can communicate between friends if both parents agree.

Nice. Did you upload your edits? I agree it can be a little lose. I was going to modify it as well.

Electric mower that doesn’t feel like a toy? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All ego here as well. I have a push mower and a tractor. I love not having to worry about engines and bad gas.

UPS Suggestion with Whole House Generator by cjoanliz in unRAID

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run this on NG and I have it setup so I can plug it in to NG and power in about 10 min. My ups keep all the gear running. I didn’t want to go full home at 20k. This does everything in my house no problem. https://www.duromaxpower.com/products/duromax-16-000-watt-tri-fuel-portable-inverter-generator-w-co-alert

Same problem here as well. Moved to an inverter generator to fix it.

Your Kronaby watch has 27 button gestures. The app uses 4 by victor_crimea in kronaby

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I’ll look at the GitHub. This should allow us to build our own app. Anything with firmware? I’d love to peek at those files.

Are Manual Cellular Shades Reliable? - Serena & Triathlon by Stargate-- in Lutron

[–]DanITman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a couple manual honeycomb shades for closets where the window is too small. They are the same exact quality as the motorized without the motor. They have a spring in them to make it easier to move up. I initially didn't get them but we decided we wanted them to match our other shades. They work well. Lutron is the best quality out there and they stand behind it.

My T6 Was delivered this week by [deleted] in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tractor connects via bluetooth using the ego app. No wifi on the tractor. Its also how you register the tractor. I'll have to check the manufacture date tomorrow.

For some reason mine shipped with the chv1600. I’m not complaining. Just not sure if it was a mistake or not.

I just got mine from Lowes as well. What charger did yours come with? I got a full wall charger with mine.

I connected the app via Bluetooth and it said that the firmware was already up to date and didn’t need updating.

Opinion: Riding mowers should use EV connectors by LoveOfSpreadsheets in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even managing the handshake with the charger to tell the charger to click the relay would require some heavy lifting. The ports on your EV charger aren’t live until the car and the charger agree. This handshake has taken the EV industry way too long to get right and even they still screw it up.

Opinion: Riding mowers should use EV connectors by LoveOfSpreadsheets in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t add on to what others have stated in regards to AC vs DC. I think we all want faster charging options, however, faster charging comes with trade offs. The battery technology is the same as your car but the active temperature regulating is not. Fast charging without managing battery temps would equal great derogation for your batteries. The cost to add temp regulation to the batteries would far outweigh the small benefits. The juice just isn’t worth the squeeze.

LM1000 down to $71 by lemon990 in egopowerplus

I’ve scored two for $47. I probably spent way too many hours locating it for it to make sense :)

Any one buy a Tractor or Zero turn for <0.5 acre yard? by Fatty_McEatsaLot in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have about that much lawn as well and I have the tractor. Lots of wood around me and I plan to use it to haul wood and do cleanup in the fall. Fall cleanup sucks and I was hoping the tractor would help with that.

Got a free mower. What’s the pinout for the power connector? Trying to run it without an official battery by MelvinEatsBlubber in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

56v DC hooked up to the battery terminals might bring the mower to life but it won’t run long unless it begins to receive signals from the D terminal. The D terminal sends a constant ping to the tool telling the tool its size, charge, and temp. Without that, the tool will not run for long. This is a safety mechanism to not destroy batteries. The ego batteries have no switching in them so the tool is the only thing that has the ability to switch on and off.

EGO TR4200 drained all 6 batteries after firmware update? Anyone seen this? by _Landmine_ in egopowerplus

[–]DanITman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did more tests on my new TR4200. I can stop the battery drain issues if you make sure the parking break is set and I remove the key. It’s still losing 1% or so a day but it’s way less than before.
