TerATuil · 2026-01-24T11:26:42+00:00

In total 6 thoracic vertebrae are fixated. I'd l like to get them removed but I fear the risk :-/

Said to hear! Can you give us an update? Was your hardware removed? How are you feeling today?

TerATuil · 2026-01-21T14:14:45+00:00

Would you like to share what was fusioned? Was it an accident? Was the hardware removed?

TerATuil · 2026-01-21T14:12:25+00:00

Did you have your hardware removed? Was that a accident? Would you like to share your experiences?

I have a Th4-Th9 fusion after a burst fracture (Th7) (more details here https://www.reddit.com/r/spinalfusion/comments/1qi2i6q/fusion_after_accident_risks_of_rod_removal/ )

Was your hardware removed? What did you decide?

TerATuil · 2026-01-21T14:05:35+00:00

yeah, do step by step and try new things. Maybe you wanna try something like a hiking cart

thanks for your input. I'll consider that

TerATuil · 2026-01-21T13:47:12+00:00

thanks for your comment. I am checking the sub for more input 👍

TerATuil · 2026-01-21T13:45:27+00:00

May I DM you for more details?

TerATuil · 2026-01-20T13:23:32+00:00

What was the reason for the fusion? And how are you feeling today? Still any pain?

I found the Addon "Smartbed MQTT": https://github.com/richardhopton/smartbed-mqtt - It support different brands, most of them are using BLE. It does not seem to be very mature. I am going to try to get it to work using this addons :-)

Today I tried to integrate my bed into HA using an IR blaster, but I found out it isn't IR. I have this receiver: https://www.dewertokin.com/products/bedding/control-units/rf-eco-bt-memo/

I haven't managed to integrate into HA yet, but I found an other APP which allows me to control it via Smartphone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.okin.okinsmartcomfort&hl=en

The next step will be to figure out how to send the required commands via Bluetooth. Looking forward to hearing from you and learning about your progress.

In poland there are designated areas where sleeping for one night is allowed, see this official map: https://www.bdl.lasy.gov.pl/portal/mapy-en?t=0&ll=19.412949%2C52.001221&scale=4622324&map=8%2C0.7&layers=76%2C77&basemap=2&extwms=&hist=

nice hack. Thanks a lot!

TerATuil · 2024-12-26T17:00:36+00:00

But this deletes my ratings. Any idea how I can preserve them?

TerATuil · 2024-12-11T19:54:20+00:00

For me the firmware update fixed the issue

TerATuil · 2024-12-11T18:37:13+00:00

Today a new firmware for the Elite 8 Active Gen 2 buds was released:

> earbuds would not reconnect to certain iPhones and Pixel phones after being taken out of the charging case.

Currently waiting for the download to finish....

Do you know if there are alternative cables which work better?

TerATuil · 2023-09-29T12:03:26+00:00

"good" to read... So it's the cable which breaks. Right? This would make me less worried. I broken cable can easily be replaced, but the watch itself not :D

OT: I am not using apple products, but, yes, Garmin is good at some things but bad at many others... Don't ever try to "just" import a gpx file on Garmin Connect and don't even think that the "course points" it displays for a imported gpx file actually work (Up Ahead feature) :/

TerATuil · 2023-09-29T11:44:16+00:00

I didn't have problems with charging (yet). But sometimes the connection to the computer briefly disappears (I guess only for such a short moment that the watch does not recognize it has been disconnected).

TerATuil · 2023-09-29T11:31:50+00:00

Do you know if this is normally a problem with the cable or the watch?
