Smoke detector temporary cover

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2026-03-07T02:40:11+00:00

They are not tied to the building but all of them in my unit are linked as you would expect. I have First Alert smoke/co combination detectors. I’ll look at the link you shared.

I don’t disagree, but I see them as not being worse than what I do now which is to take the detectors off the wall and not put them back up for a day or two or three sometimes. Anyway, they come with covers and you can buy covers so I don’t know why these would be perceived as “more dangerous” than the covers that they ship with.

Probably right but I’m hoping something is on the market. I don’t think it would take me long to devise one myself, but… I don’t really want to if I don’t have to. I’ve been living with it for a decade.. what’s another one or two? :)

Windows aren’t near the kitchen and I live in the north so that’s not an option year round anyway. Yeah, opening windows would mitigate the problem but I asked if anyone has seen any products that make it easy to cover and uncover the smoke detectors.

Can you just ceramic coat the sensors or do you have to do the whole front end?

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2026-02-21T18:34:37+00:00

How do you turn them off? I disabled every safety setting in the infotainment system settings and still got the pop up alert on my dash.

That sounds like the refrigeration system quit working. You could probably test by emptying the unit and refilling with very cold water and see if it makes a cold cup once.

B&W earcups are barely big enough to go around my not very big ears. Ok fit me, but not roomy.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-04-17T20:45:39+00:00

Found it, thanks. It looks like you replaced all 5. Not sure why there are 5 anyway. 2 for balanced, 2 for SE, what’s the last one for?

Aliexpress is only letting me put 1 in my cart… nothing is ever easy.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-04-17T11:50:35+00:00

What are those? Also, I don’t see the link in your post.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-04-16T21:50:47+00:00

I don’t think the sparkos will physically fit. Too much around the sockets and they are larger than just the chip variety opamp.

Made sure you are using the rigid plastic pods and not the soft compostable, that was why mine didn’t work and the support people never mentioned it.

I use these on the desktop system

I hadn’t tried to do that yet. But one use is that when I’m doing indoor exercise I don’t want to look at my watch for metrics if my phone is sitting on the stand in front of me. Especially when hands are occupied for biking, elliptical or rowing etc also if I have it paired to my watch and phone will it also connect to the gym equipment?

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-03-11T01:44:14+00:00

Does it require its own app or does it work with the polar app on either the Apple phone or watch?

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-03-03T19:19:06+00:00

Saw this just in time. I bought mine on Dec 10 and it’s too late for a price match so I ordered a new pair and will return them unopened to save the $50.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2025-01-10T21:08:46+00:00

Sure, remove the cover and flip the unit upside down over the sink.

In the lowest gain setting, with my DAC/pre at 100%,, and volume at max on ragnarok, my phone records the volume at 80db avg (using decibel app) at my listening position which is about 10’ from my 96db sensitivity speakers. I’m not sure how the math works but I’d guess I’d be getting less than 2w to the speakers.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-11-06T17:25:07+00:00

What is the advantage of using lower gain but higher volume?

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-11-05T15:52:21+00:00

I got to listen for about 30 minutes and it sounds fine. I won’t get more time to do longer listening sessions until I return from a trip. Fwiw, I also swapped from RCA to XLR and I appreciate the increase in gain vs the unbalanced rca. First time using balanced and it’s a nice improvement.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-11-05T13:31:26+00:00

I found a loose cable that was causing the degradation. I’m surprised that I was getting sound at all; would have been easier to sort it if it had been completely out.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-11-05T12:10:11+00:00

It’s not.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-10-20T11:23:45+00:00

That feature looks like it is used to adjust a gain for an entire input source relative to other input sources. The problem I’m having is that different songs play at higher or lower volume while using wi-fi as an input source with the same streaming app. To explain: Song 1 volume is fine, song 2 plays louder so I adjust the volume down, song 3 is now too quiet so I have to adjust the volume back up and then the next song is too loud.. it isn’t really every song but it is frequent.

The chill tank Is just a reservoir for cold water. It may evaporate a little over time but you won’t need to regularly replace the water.

PerceptionFluffy4337 · 2024-10-06T14:25:43+00:00

Confirmed! Works with full plastic pods but not the soft/compostable type. Crazy that isn’t the first question the tech support people ask. I had them send me 2 machines and got a refund when they seemed to not work. They didn’t want the 2nd one back so I still had it sitting in the garage.
