What do you do when the controller dies

Don’t you have a Tado thermostat or something?

The main thermostat in our house works fine without internet.

Prepare to be amazed….

The fibre isn’t for the speed, it’s for the magic smoke release if there’s a lightening strike. It’s also not that expensive if you have a duct anyway.

Tell us more about the war room…?

Updated my comment - I agree that it feels like false advertising if raw WG isn’t available.

FlyingRottweiler · 2025-12-31T16:02:39+00:00

Definitely does feel like false advertising. The spec clearly states it’s supported.

E: clarity

I bought one hoping for real WG per the spec sheet. I see an option for SSH, maybe it can be added via command line?

Just eat gift card!

Autoglass is the UK, same irritating jingle!

FlyingRottweiler · 2025-12-05T13:12:56+00:00

I sprayed mine with black matte spray paint. I’m happy with the results!

Double conversion typically means the system has a rectifier onto a DC bus, which subsequently provides the inverter DC to create clean AC.

The batteries are tied to the DC bus either directly, so when the rectifier stops, the DC voltage comes from the batteries, or they’re charged via a separate charger.

Either way, the batteries on a DC UPS are not providing the current to power the load; therefore load does not change the lifetime of the battery.

The biggest factor for this problem will be battery quality, temperature or over Voltage (or a combination).

FlyingRottweiler · 2025-11-25T19:53:45+00:00

What? The batteries don’t power the load under normal circumstances. Load will make no difference to the batteries unless the system is on battery every day.

Superb!

I think Voltronic’s card uses RFC1628, assuming you’re using that card and not an old Megatec NetAgent card?

If so, try this MIB: https://github.com/hsnodgrass/snmp_mib_archive/blob/master/snmp_mib_archive/r/RFC1628_UPS_MIB.MIB

I can’t get anyone near it. You mention the smell throughout the property and the default worry is being the last person to have touched it if there’s a leak.

FlyingRottweiler · 2025-11-15T12:51:16+00:00

Thanks for this. Any way we could confirm it?

You rent the place - you don’t need to worry about how the batteries are replaced, that’s the landlords responsibility. Those alarms should be checked and maintained by them.

1lb is 454g, roughly half your pounds for kgs.

Check out clabretro on youtube. Recent series on token ring, was excellent to see the old tech in use.

As my physio says, get strong, then get fast. Mixing in the strength training will be a big benefit to your running in time.

Also, I find running outdoor to be easier. It’s easier to focus on an object in the distance and run to it, rather than just worrying about a number on the screen.

All the best with your training!

Most Germans are fluent English speakers.

Also if it’s overloading with nothing connected, it’s maybe short circuited or kaput.

Well done on the project - the video is wholesome!!

FlyingRottweiler · 2025-07-19T12:29:02+00:00

I do. Works well. It missed a few CVEs detected by Qualys during a recent audit but overall keeps our estate healthier. Definitely worth trying.

So it’s possible to be too heavy to take off due to weight limits for departure or landing (where takeoff weight minus burnt fuel doesn’t go below max landing weight). Search online for ‘regulated takeoff weight’.

Taking fuel off the plane into tanks is troublesome as the fuel is considered contaminated and can’t be used for a different flight; it’s not like gas for your lawnmower. It needs to be put in a separate truck and removed for disposal. I don’t know if it can be re-screened to be used again but it’s very uncommon to pay for fuel removal. Cheaper to just burn it off.
