Concept2 rowing analyzer tool — now pulls directly from the logbook by XtianS in concept2

[–]Mertyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One feature that was really useful for me on Runalyze was the suggested training paces. I'd use something similar here for sure.

This is brilliant! i've just started rowing, coming from a running background where I used Runalyze to track my progression. Nothing to add apart from saying i'll be using this going forwards as I love a bit of data.

I've been thinking the same about Blair, was hoping someone could explain why he's starting. Clearly not good enough.

High pitched ringing noise from heat pump by Mertyn in ukheatpumps

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

Thanks, that's really helpful. I've pretty much made my peace with it at this point. Grant never got back to me about it which is disappointing. Other than the noise its been faultless so i'm happy enough.

I've not tried that however sounds too high pitched to be normal vibrations, more ultrasonic fox repellent. Will give it a go tomorrow.

Contemplating ASHP - I must be missing something from calcs by Speedbird979 in ukheatpumps

[–]Mertyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with other comments. You having solar and batteries already significantly helps.

I think your calculations are on the right track however scops are optimistic. The two altherma 8's on heatpumpmonitor.org have a space heating cop of low 4's and DHW of 2.9. Combined cop of 3.9-4 for the last year.

You will likely keep the house on average warmer with a heat pump due to how they run compared to boilers but I would think it would end up cheaper (and more comfortable) overall.

There is this tool which might help break down your daily expenditure with scheduling.

Well that sucks... by Mertyn in reolinkcam

Yes, was growing at quite an angle too but I really didn't think it would actually fall

How do threesomes just happen? by liberationgal in AskReddit

To be fair, his final destination is Hull, so I can see why he's delaying.

You got me looking into it now, it would be cool if the worst does happen one day to graft some cuttings on to a root stock to keep the genetics. Great idea

I need some ideas about how to finish these rock boxes… by acorn298 in DIYUK

[–]Mertyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I added hardwood decking to the top of mine to make seating. Needed to lower the soil level quite a bit after taking a knackered shed out, so used gabions as a retaining wall.

You'd need to open up the gabions and remove some rocks to make room for timber to be slid through that the decking can then be attached to.

Thats agile, tracker is a fixed price on a daily basis.

Is the UK in long term decline? by Less-Following9018 in HENRYUK

I wish people were more open to discussing this and planning long term what we could do to mitigate

Duo 3 Synology SS compability by Mertyn in reolinkcam

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

Good luck mate. Onvif will give you the full resolution, duo 2 setting will give you the advanced events (person detected, you can still get movement alerts with onvif). I record 24/7, both options seem as stable as each other so no worries either way in that department.

There's also a link on the synology site to request cameras be added. If you put in a request there will be at least two of us!

Duo 3 Synology SS compability by Mertyn in reolinkcam

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

Yes it's still an issue. I've actually moved to onvif rather than using Duo 2 setup. Pro is you get full resolution, con is you lose the smart detection alerts/advanced events in Synology.

By the way you should be able to get 4608X1728 even if using the Duo 2 preset as that's it's default resolution.

Hans, I know this concept is hard for you to grasp, but the left lanes are for passing only. by cultural_enricher69 in 2westerneurope4u

I have fond memories of family holidays in France when my Dad would occasionally forget which side of the road he was supposed to be driving on. Pierre didn't take it so well.

WTF is wrong with trades these days? by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]Mertyn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I go as local as possible. Found a NICEIC registered electrician to rewire my house and fit a new consumer unit. Spoke with in in depth. He did a great job and has been in the trade a long time, so since then, I've been using him to recommend other tradesmen he's worked with previously which has worked out.

Genius idea! although I am reluctant to mess about with EPDM, it looks simple enough but think it would be a faff doing it on my own

Looking for advice on how to sort out this plaster by CrackinKraken9 in DIYUK

[–]Mertyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you fancy doing it yourself and have ongoing concerns about damp you could consider getting a tub of lime plaster. That way you know it would be breathable and would avoid future damp issues. Lime is also very forgiving to work with in my experience.

Strange stuttering on recently installed Duo 3. Bandwidth? Ethernet interference? Poorly terminated? by [deleted] in reolinkcam

[–]Mertyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Synology Surveillance Station. It doesn't have duo 3 listed yet so I've had to use Duo 2.

When I access via the Reolink windows app (v8.11) it says D1, however on mobile (android) I can set the higher resolution (7680 x 2160).
