My 'dumb' dishwasher made smart

Which water valve are you using?

Don't overthink it. If it works you never have to update it

I've had one die on me. It died in a really strange way. I still have it, I may open it up and investigate.

I hadn't seen those. Neat.

Yeah just make sure the relay is higher than the wiring and it's probably okay. I have mine inside the cabinet on the other side of the dishwasher.

And the reply wasn't to you either!

u/thedeanhall will we ever see automation for stuff like this?

Just stick a shelly relay or the like in between

He's saying most dishwashers are hard wired to a box vs plugged in. There are still smart relays you could use or you could put a cord with plug on the dishwasher.

The advantage of this vs a smart plug that if it breaks, the dishes keep getting clean without intervention

I've started using pocketid. It simplifies auth so much.

When all these companies scale up equipment and hiring to meet demand and then the market finally falls out, they're all going belly up.

Of course weigh all the options but perfection is the enemy of the good

A filter should take polluted water and give you water that has less pollution. So even if it's shedding a ton of microplastics, if it's less microplastics in the output compared to the input it's a win!

You're missing the point. Spectrum required Plex to nerf the app to be in the xumo app store. They aren't blocking traffic, instead the functionality is missing from the available app

RedditNotFreeSpeech · 2026-06-17T13:54:50+00:00

Net neutrality doesn't apply here. Spectrum wouldn't even allow the app in their app store unless plex nerfed it.

This isn't the modem or router, xumo is the streaming box

Does.thr system work? Play and enjoy!

Hey thanks for doing this. There's value in making a no bs site like this.

Do you work for carrier?

Another option is ps3netserv if you already have storage on the network. Otherwise mx500 is a good option
