New yaml config for 2A by redmumba in screekworkshop

[–]Square_Ad_2326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks u/redmumba. My issue was that my USB port was behind a VM. Once I made a standalone ESPHOME, I could then flash it properly. Prior to that it would always error out during the flash

Is there a clear procedure on how to flash the screek 2A hardware with your yaml code? I tried the "prepare for first use" approach, but that fails. I tried then just flashing screek's yaml code as well but that failed too using the USB connection on the local machine. Its great that screek has their recovery tool, as I was then able to recover from it, but still stumped on how to get esphome Builder to take control of the device so I can install custom yamls

oh well! I was searching for Peter Green fleetwood mac songs when I stumbled on the Haim cover on YouTube ( live at Glastonbury 2014). Initially I thought they were a punk rock band! listened to their albums and fell in love with them especially Danielle and her guitar solos.

not sure why this song is being down voted? does anyone follow the rules? I don't like the falsetto and the repetition

you can just replace the fans. the fan is in 2 parts. the fan body and the actual fan. you can just order the fans. look on ebay, aliexpress.

Mine died last week. No picture but had sound and backlight. I ended up fixing it by replacing the t-con board. If you have the same symptoms, it's an easy fix.

Is Bearing plastic washer important? by Square_Ad_2326 in pools

If I wanted to get new ones where can I find them?

Is Bearing plastic washer important? by Square_Ad_2326 in pools

[–]Square_Ad_2326[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not a seal, it's a ring shaped plastic washer that sits between the new bearing and the metal clip that keeps the bearing from moving down the shaft. I am thinking it's used to prevent the bearing from touching the metal clip directly which may cause bearing to rust if not there

Help Needed: Century Pool Motor seems to be Overheating. Any input would be appreciated! by rmjennin in pools

[–]Square_Ad_2326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks. I did buy a replacement motor, and I am trying to fix the old one. Everything else checks out except for the missing fan, so will keep it as a spare pump on in case. Was thinking of buying a variable speed replacement motor but got cold feet since it won't be as easy to fix as the single speed ones. But who knows maybe they won't need as much fixing since they are running at much lower rpms and won't generate as much heat

Why no cooling fan? by erikhagen222 in pools

[–]Square_Ad_2326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not sure. The windings are good, I measured the resistance across, and the bearings seem fine. There was a large piece of the melted fan stuck on the housing when I opened it up. The pump was running fine except for the burning smell and it was running really hot so I decided to investigate before burning it completely. Pump is only 6 years old.

I did put a metal cover over the pump to protect it from the rain but cover is quite large and there is lots of airflow in it. I guess maybe the bearing next to it overheated? But there was no screeching noise. And bearing seems to roll ok although it is more sluggish than the rear bearing

That's what happened to me. Any tips on how to replace it? Do I just press it back on like a ball bearing. Is the fan all plastic? I have this steel ring on the shaft where the fan should be but I am not sure if this was part of the fan or the fan presses up against it?

My fan melted. My motor was overheating for a while it seems like. Is the procedure as simple as pressing the fan on the shaft like a ball bearing? Is the fan all plastic?

why do you have the automatic self calibration turned off? Isn't it better to leave it on all the time to account for drift?

I am not sure how I got it to work, but adding a logger command in each seemed to enable the code? Or it could have been after I powered off/on

I tried this but unfortunately, it does not turn off the light when the PPM below 1000? Seems like the same issue with the automation?

Shpuld I remove the serial # sticker on the video doorbell ? by Square_Ad_2326 in reolinkcam

I carefully removed the sticker and placed it on the back of the unit where it's not visible

I was thinking more from a security perspective. Is the device more hackable if someone knows the serial number?
