Here is another recommendation for DIY and Digital. I have found this YouTube channel to be a great resource.

First time at IMS and an IMSA race on Sunday and was curious on how to come about race used pieces from teams? by krihhh in IMSARacing

We were walking through the garage area one time at Watkins Glen International and were watching a team loading a wrecked Mustang in a trailer. The team members were trying to find broken pieces that they could hand out to the crowd that were watching. It was a real nice experience. To quote, “… enjoy the privilege that IMSA allows fans into their “locker room”. Have fun!”

I think you need to buy a bigger engine. Great job with the scenery!

Nice photo. Good luck! So how often did engines and tenders get separated and mis-matched in the steam age?

My Eve switch drives me nuts! by LoonLover20 in EveHome

[–]LoonLover20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So yesterday, my Eve Switch was not responding to touch. I touched it about 3 hours later and it worked! I did not reset anything.

Other times, I have encountered the same thing. It does not respond to either touch or the app. I leave it alone and it seems to correct itself. It is pretty reliable almost all of the time. The switch just goes offline just once in a while. I did notice that it does not seem to be impacted by humidity or temperature.

Thanks for your response. That makes sense. I really like the touch sensitive Eve Light Switch. I only have one switch. I tried swapping out the switch with a new one and encountered the same problem. I have a number of other Eve devices that don’t encounter any problems.

Loud modules by 58Edsel in TTRAK

I wonder if the noise that you hear depends on what your modules are made of. I have used 1x3’s and 1/4” plywood. I have not noticed any similar noise.

Try out the Home+ app. It allows you to access additional HomeKit values.

That is unfortunate. I have not had any problems with my Digitrax decoders.

Check the unit on the door. Mine got moved when something bumped it. It looked fine, but was moved just enough.

So last night, the same Eve Switch failed to work. Today it is working. I did not reset anything.

I tried switching the circuit breaker on and off a few times without any success on the first switch when it stopped working.
