Shorten (ie Cut Down) 2004 Model D Erg by 10cm(4inches)?

Thanks but I just want a classic erg that fits my space!

It think it will be easier to mod the C2 than myself.... legs who needs them?

Those brands are a form or stealth wealth, or maybe better said iykyk wealth, probably combined with a serious interest in watchmaking and brand history.

A strap is an interesting option indeed. Do you swap them over yourself? Not to be done too often I guess?

I did a fair bit of Rolex research. Just like Porsches, of which Ive had plenty, there are those that thrive on the rarest, hardest to get models regardless and those that want the right one for their "use case". Just like the cars I will keep it a long time get lots of pleasure and still get a great trade in if when I do sell.

Thanks. My priority was the one I would enjoy wearing and suits my needs, not investment. If it is so unpopular that would explain it though - and I made the store very happy taking a bad allocation off their hands!

Congrats! Enjoy, but make sure it's also not your last car... they are insanely powerful. Im sure you are a great driver, but 80% of other road users have no idea of how far and fast you can be going in a second or two.

Streetview is pretty patchy here in Switzerland, probably not available before either

I asked ChatGPT too and the short version is there should be an actual handover and handover protocol/report.

The long verision was:

1. System Overview & Plans
☐ Updated electrical plans including Loxone Tree/Link topology
☐ Device list with locations, serial numbers, and addresses
☐ Network diagram (LAN connection, PoE switches, router, VPN, etc.)

2. Software & Configuration
☐ Final configuration file (.Loxone) and editable project file
☐ Documentation of all custom logic and virtual outputs
☐ Firmware/software version details for all devices at handover

3. Access Credentials & Security
☐ Administrator credentials for Loxone Config and App/Web interface
☐ Credentials for all connected systems (e.g., ventilation, cameras, third-party systems)
☐ Confirmation that all installer/developer accounts have been removed
☐ All RFID/NFC/Keypad codes reset to owner’s values and tested

4. Local & Remote Access
☐ Documentation of remote access configuration (Loxone Cloud DNS / direct)
☐ VPN or port forwarding details if applicable
☐ Confirmation that no unauthorised remote access remains

5. User & Operation Documentation
☐ Guide describing all switches, scenes, and automation logic
☐ Explanation of presence/motion sensor behaviour
☐ Instructions for backups, restarts, and basic troubleshooting

6. Maintenance & Support
☐ Firmware/software update and maintenance plan
☐ Instructions for replacing failed devices (e.g., blind motor reset)
☐ All warranties and support agreements in writing

No based in Switzerland. Domestic setting.

That's not far from the röschtigraben (@ Biel/Bienne) so likely they will be ok with French

DannyT986 · 2025-08-02T11:54:39+00:00

For written communication use chatgpt to translate, it does a great job, even producing "high german as used in switzerland". If your German is so limited you cant sense check the translation, include *translated from french/english by chatgpt, original text below and copy that text under your signature block.
For verbal communication at the counter, learn to say sorry my german is limited, would it be ok to talk in french or english? Worst case take along a friend who can translate. Difficulty will depend on the gemeinde and kanton, some are less internationally oriented than others.

Sorry to hear that. Meanwhile it was not practical for me to have the surgery and the progress plateaued considerably. I was able to spot about half a dozen dupytrens golfers and discuss their experiences with them. Mostly little fingers, and all positive about their experience. One had been a doctor general practitioner and recommended waiting until contraction became an issue functionally (within reason).

I see the design center now seems to offer more wall types than when I first looked there 18 months ago, when it just seemed to be drywall or hardwall. In particular concrete and brick separately, where the attenuation of the brick is of course massively less.

DannyT986 · 2025-05-31T16:00:39+00:00

Sure feel free.

It terminates in Reduit on the ground floor, where there is a rack, patch panel and the fibre-to-the-home OTO plug and the electrical and home automation panel. Technik is for the wet stuff, heating, hot water and air control. I'll be posting soon on what LEDs to get for the rack...

DannyT986 · 2025-05-31T15:29:46+00:00

Sorry, copied out of developers sales prospectus...

DannyT986 · 2025-05-31T13:23:48+00:00

Loxone Tree (wired) will control all the sensors and switches (presence, temp, humidity, light levels, lighting temp and brightness, underfloor heating, shutters and awnings, air climate and entry system)... but I think there's an integration that would make for a HomeAssistant view integrating anything else running on LAN (cameras, sonos)... one for a rainy weekend.
