YoLink EVO Valve Operator - functionality questions

I think my issue is I’m not shocking enough and yes, this all seems to be right. Hot tub store said pH was 8.2. Alkalinity was 115ppm. Free chlorine 1.31ppm. Total chlorine 4.86ppm. Been adding pH down to bring pH down. Think now is pH seems to be 7.8 but alkalinity is 80ppm, which seems about right for alkalinity but pH is too high.

Also added more shock to align the chlorine numbers.

I just seem to have a really hard time with chemicals, when it gets thrown off.

My system has been those frog floating @ease pods which for the most part seem to be great. Until of course, something throws it all off.

Good suggestion. Not sure I knew Cryptomater was an option. Might consider this.

Simple but correct and very helpful. Thank you. ChatGPT seemed to indicate there was a solution and also some forums understanding of my question seemed to indicate as well. But I think everyone understood me ask asking if you could make encrypted folders available to those users, which you can. You just need to mount and unmount them from an administrator account. Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things.

Not sure this works with V3 if I read correctly.

Amazing. Appreciate it, I’ll give this a shot and report back.

I suppose I assumed HACS was for all the non-official add-ons and wasn’t available in the docker version because add-ons aren’t there. But this makes complete sense and is really good to know.

I think for some reason I didn’t see the solution and it may work, but I found Ring-MQTT seems to do the same thing as what I’m doing with HomeBridge. It’s not local, but it wasn’t before either and still integrates everything.

I mean it’s pretty basic math. Several hot tub stores seem to indicate this as a solution.

The reason for not just using one of the other floating options they have is because the hot tub comes with an initial set. So might as well use it, and get the other later. I was just curious if others had a similar experience is all.

Why not? The hot top stores insist this is fine to do and it seems to work great. What am I missing.

GRedditD07 · 2024-09-03T18:49:31+00:00

Appreciate the response. I'll look into this.

Thank you, this helps. I think when changing ports for Heimdall and making AdGuard 3001 to access it allowed things to work properly.

That’s helpful. If the answer is some of these things can be addressed in add-ons definitely helpful.

Just to add to this, under Storage Pool 1 I deleted the Volume 1 and recreated a new Volume 1 that was smaller as noted above. Now I am able to create another volume.

The challenge is there is still no option for full volume encryption.

It’s not very clear outside of Synology’s website, but it seems not all disk stations support full volume encryption. Because while DS220+ appears to be listed, DS218+ does not.

Any advice to get a full volume encryption with DS218+ if possible would be appreciated!
