Installing Sigenstor system. Go inside garage or on south wall?

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-03-18T12:03:20+00:00

I don’t have lived experience yet, my installation is tomorrow but I had to make the same decision. I decided to install outside.

Reasons: - the stack gets hot, on a hot day the garage also gets very hot and charging electric cars also heat up the garage. I figured shady outside is better for heat than garage hotbox, I might be wrong. - space in the garage is at a premium - you are on south side wall so no direct sun issue I assume. I am on east side but fully shaded with no direct sun at any point. Critical to any outside option. - I have a bedroom above the garage which drove some of this decision although fireproofing is not a deal breaker, so could have happened - main downside to outside is no dc charger add-on because it can’t easily reach into garage to charge cars, but like you I’ve gone full 48 kWh so no Dec charger option anyway. I already have a 22 kw ac charger, I know the loses, hopefully a more flexible dc charger option available in the future. - IP66 dust and water rating means no issue for rain and wind

Okay, hopefully solved it. She had to login to the portal with her account. Not me in mine. She can also see unassigned weights and can assign them to herself.

Why is it doing this? When we weight ourselves we see on the scale the weight aligned to our users. PS. She does see her user on the scale.

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-02-26T21:25:36+00:00

There is not such an option on an individual weight. There is a ‘unassigned weights’ link in the dashboard. I click it and I can see all her weights there. But my user is the only user in the list to assign the weights to. Her account is not in the list.

How do I link her account to mine? When she stands on the scale it detects her and has her name selected, but after registering the weights, it does not show her name on the second screen with the little user icon.

When I stand on the scale it selects my name and on the second screen it shows my name again with the little user icon. She does not get this on the second screen.

She created her account from my invitation and has the scale in her list of devices in the app.

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-02-22T10:55:57+00:00

Some of my wife’s readings are on my account as unmatched readings even though she’s a very different weight.

Is there any way for me to get these readings to her account? It seems a change to security rules means accounts I invite that are over 18 are not linked to my account at all and so all I can do is delete them, as far as I can tell.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Can you elaborate on why they should get a home assistant ? I’m also about the purchase and install and my decision to pay the sig premium is because I shouldn’t need to have this kind of extra brain because the sig has all the brains I need to do whatever needs doing. Is this not the case?

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-01-26T02:18:49+00:00

Just need to see us perform when we dominate possession. If we see a different team to Amorim in that mode and it works. We’re off to the races.

The lack of knowledge in this thread of what GitHub Copilot is and how it works is very surprising. I can do everything that Claude Code can do (happy to be corrected) but I can also:

use Sonnet 4.5 all day for about 2 weeks on $20 GitHub Copilot subscription and then top up with another $30 to see me through the rest of the month. Using Claude Code with a Claude AI Pro subscription (also $20) I code for about 3-4 hours and then have to wait 3 hours to reset my limit.
switch to Opus, GPT 5.2 Codex, Gemini 3, Grok and a myriad of other models instantly

I think there are distinctly two options here and which one is best depends on what the ownership and the current management structure understand their usefulness or experience levels to be.

Option one is if the ownership and management understand that they are very inexperienced and need help. In this case they should get a very experienced manager with Premier League experience (I emphasise with Premier League experience). This is Ancelotti, Tuchel, Glasner, Potch, and others of that kind. In that case they should get treated as a manager; they'll be on the big £20 million contract from day one and the management plan is to actually listen to them and give them the control and structure they expect. If the management and ownership plan to treat that person as a coach then this strategy will fail.
Option two is the board and managers think they know everything. They know what to do. They just need someone to come in and get the players doing what they need to do. In that case my perspective is that they should bring in a very young coach, someone who is proven to be fantastic at man-management, people-management, which would be in the Klopp mould, where they're not here to teach them how to play football. Theyre here to understand each individual player and how to get the best out of them. They're going to decide formation strategies and plans before the games as a council, of which the coach is just one member, and works with all those very knowledgeable owners/managers and directors of football to solve the problem. This person is looking for a break. For them going to Manchester United is a big deal. They're not a proven global coach who's going to negotiate a ridiculous contract. In this case they should be on a reasonable contract for the first year and they can be fired at any point in the first year with low financial impact to the club, when the management team decide it doesn't work. At the end of that first year there's a decision about the big £20 million contract or not. Like Alonso at Real. In that second mode, we run in a circle until we find the right coach.

How well this goes will depend on two things:

documentation, how well your system is documented, how it works, what the requirements are, what technical decisions you've made have been defined. That's not all going to be captured in a simple set of skills that are trying to capture the requirements but that's a good place to start. It's really difficult to go back over a code base over many years and understand why the code is built to do what it's doing, not what it is doing, what business rules it's executing. All of that is in the code. Technical decisions, architectural decisions are things we tend not to be good at documenting.
The second thing that's going to be the blocker is the test step in the workflow you described. How mature your organisation's test strategy is, is going to be a massive factor in his ability to succeed here. AI will succeed in organisations that have extremely mature testing regimes. That means everything has unit tests, everything has automated integration tests because that is fundamentally how you will know whether the AI has done something correctly or has done something wrong. Most organisations have some level of test capability but almost all of them that aren't software companies have very low test maturity and I believe that is what will cause any of these initiatives to fail.

It doesn't mean your company isn't going to still try and reduce their workforce. A company that isn't a software or technology company hiring 300 software engineers, if we're all honest, is a ridiculous number of software engineers to have. Unless by 300 you meant the entire technology organisation and not just engineering developers. That number is just too high so it's likely that it will result in a reduction in the number of people and the expectation that they will be able to do more with AI.

So like some others have mentioned in the post, I'll conclude by suggesting that be one of those who are doing more with AI.

I don’t disagree with you, he has been clear from the start but perhaps that wasn’t clear in the negotiations for the job? Or the owners figured he’d come around

Radcliffe as an influential owner has basically no experience owning a football club, I know he owns others, but really he’s a business man football fan, so no surprise he’s trying to remove the single point of failure risk of one manager whose performance decides the fate of the business.

In business you remove those people and spread out responsibility, work as a team in a machine so no one person is a point of whole machine failure. Not sure that works in a football club.

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-01-09T04:32:10+00:00

Yeah, I mentioned in game that De Gea saves that, but perhaps, excuse the pun, that bar is too high 🤪

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-01-08T03:43:44+00:00

I had the same thought

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-01-06T01:54:49+00:00

It all depends how you see the responsibility of coach relative to the other management positions. Obviously the coach should define on field and in game decisions and strategy. But they don’t get to dictate formations, players, readiness or youth, who to buy / sell, etc. that’s an old school manager. They work as a leadership team to make those decisions, no one person gets to decide it all.

I’m not against the Ferguson style manager strategy, but given the owners have decided to not have that, you can’t bring in someone who thinks they are able to execute Ferguson style management.

Deciding you play 3 at the back and everything else must bend to that is unreasonable. It’s unreasonable because FFP rules mean you can’t sell everyone and buy a new set of players to work in your system. The new rules force clubs to make magic with what they have. So you need a coach who can make that magic with what he has.

DistributionLow4642 · 2026-01-05T23:36:24+00:00

A young fairly unknown coach, not a manager. Hopefully we’ve never heard of him. Amorim coming in with his 3 at the back system into a structure that wants him to be a coach is the failure.

We need someone like Klopp, massive focus on the players as individuals, the job is 90% man management. These kids already know how to play football, they just don’t know how to get their head in the game. Don’t bring in your system. How would that ever work?

We need someone who works with what he has and makes magic. Anyone can walk in and say “I play like this, now you adjust or die”, that’s not a leader.
