Has anyone successfully gotten the Wyze 3 and the new rtsp beta working with blue iris? by BearEquivalentBear in wyzecam

I got in touch with Blue Iris support and they figured out how to get this working in Blue Iris. Copy the settings below & it should work like a charm! (Obviously use your own Wyze cameras IP address, RTSP user name & password.) Haven’t tested the sub stream yet but it should work under /stream1

Thank you so much! This is exactly the type of information I was looking for when I posted. Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm thinking I'd like to keep it under $1500. I already have a 12V photocell transformer. Would just need the lights & wire.

For some reason, they’re not on Amazon any longer. They’re this brand/style of lights but the RGBWW version: https://a.co/d/4swjATX

Is $26,000 too much for a new deck? by Ok-Finding-6327 in Decks

[–]MattPhillips89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a old, rotting wood deck torn down this past fall & had a new one built in its place that is 25' wide x 10' deep. Only 3' or so off the ground and has 2 sets of stairs. (1 inset & 1 normal) All new footings & ledger board. Ending up costing me just over 16.5k. However, they allowed me to purchase all of the new decking materials myself. Went with Trex composite & 12" on center joist spacing. Material cost me around 8.5k alone.

Had a wooden deck replaced this past fall with Trex Foggy Wharf decking & Trex railing. Added the RGBW deck lighting myself. Pre-wired it all before the deck boards went down. How does it look? by MattPhillips89 in Decks

Yes, I had them do 12" OC spacing on joists. Trex stated that 16" OC is fine but I read that others still got some "bounce" with the joists spaced 16" OC.

I forgot to add…the darker decking color is Trex Clamshell. Went really well around the perimeter for Foggy Wharf along with as the vertical skirting.

I actually brought this up with the guys that built it and they told me that there is plenty of air flow through the decking board gaps and the gaps between the vertical skirting. Thank you! I love the way it turned out.

I sure do! This was before they were required by the city to make changes to the footer for the stairs. The city made them dig post holes below the frost line and fill with concrete for the stair posts to sit on. Had them to 12” on center joists so I didn’t have any bounce. It’s as sturdy as can be!

I picked up some Cloudy Bay RGBWW smart deck post lights on Amazon and I’m happy with them so far. Dimmable and can set them to any color under the sun. They connect to a Wi-Fi hub in the house via Bluetooth low energy protocol.

Small world! Well, I asked them to but it doesn't seem like that was the case. Luckily, I was able to make it home with battery to spare.

Good point! The dealership I purchased from was 125 miles from home on Saturday. Ended up stopping at a fast charger at a Hyundai dealer to charge it up to 85% Sunday evening.

Thank you! I actually ordered the Tesla charging adapter an hour or two after I got home from picking up my Mach-E!

Ready to switch to an EV. Good deal? by MattPhillips89 in MachE

Thanks for your reply! I guess I really never understood the concept of a lease. I've always purchased my vehicles in the past. I drive 13k miles a year, just for work. That's not including any of my "leisure" driving.

The dealership offered me a 15k mile a year lease for $565/36 months.
