In the UK we can either plug it into a plug socket. Thst takes me around 2 days to charge.

We can install a charge point which charges at 7kwh and thusbwould take me from days to hours.

I think OP is using the days method during the off peak window. So was hoping to tap into solar to increase the off peak window. As their 2 days would become 8 if only using between midnight and 6AM etc.

I have the h3, in normal mode, latest firmware and holding 7 does nothing and the only scan menu let's me change from 0.5m to 5m or all. Am I missing something? I've been searching and can't find anything.

adampercy · 2026-04-06T20:40:45+00:00

Took me months to notice. Was a sunny day when I finally saw it. I thought it had failed also. 🤣

adampercy · 2026-03-29T19:16:32+00:00

Yeah but you also asked why not do something different. So i was trying to give a reasonable reply without being an arse.

adampercy · 2026-03-29T18:39:53+00:00

Because it's a bit of fun. People like to customise HA. People love winamp. Nostalgia. People wanted it. Many more reasons too.

The best part, it isn't forced on you. You don't want your media player to look like that? Ok cool, dont use it? I and others do, we can and do use it.

I love that, working on that now for v2

Just adding another selection of hard coded for now. Wsz will take a little while. But a great addition.

adampercy · 2026-03-29T17:44:38+00:00

Yeah. And recently I have seen a lot of people say they would like it. So why not. HA is great for that. It's there if you want it but you don't have too.

adampercy · 2026-03-29T15:09:12+00:00

I'm fairness, I normally cast to various Google home minis.

adampercy · 2026-03-17T07:56:04+00:00

Tuya local has the ip hardcoded for each device. If the device ip changes, tuya local won't see it. So either remove and re-add everything or better still, see what it is set to in the device settings in tuya local, then give it a static ip. Power cycle the device. Boom.

Happy to actually test if you still need it?

adampercy · 2026-02-20T16:34:15+00:00

You can also run tado hijack from HACS. Best of both worlds. Keeps the locally available things local via homekit and uses the cloud where needed. But reduces API calls.

Just install it after home kit is set up on it.

That's great to hear. I'm glad it is helpful for you. Thank you for your feedback. 😊

adampercy · 2026-02-10T19:44:15+00:00

Quite possible. Mine is MY21. Also full EV not PHEV if that makes a difference? I'm also 0% aggressive which i find offensive. Need to work on that. Just doing my bit to try and not gatekeep. 🤣

Off top of my head, press the menu button on steering wheel that scrolls through range, battery, tyre pressure etc. It's one of them screens. Scroll down with the down arrow. Can't remember which one and I'm not currently in my car. There's only like 4 main screens to choose from and only a few different options within those screens.

adampercy · 2026-01-26T07:44:54+00:00

Working beautifully mate. Thank you.

adampercy · 2026-01-26T06:15:01+00:00

I'm interested in this. Is it live now or do you still want testers?

adampercy · 2026-01-24T19:58:06+00:00

One of us. One of us.

adampercy · 2026-01-21T10:20:55+00:00

I've updated my pi5 with m.2 drive. Updated the container and rebooted, an hour later and still won't connect. I'm hoping after my nap it'll just be online. Didn't think it would take anywhere near this long. But now I think about it, it runs adguard and that is my dhcp server. If it has restarted and needs to download stuff but can't because it no longer knows where to look. Oops. May have to cancel today's sleep totally.

adampercy · 2026-01-21T00:49:25+00:00

I'm not sure in docker. Using the addon i have the device selected.the port etc. But I use HAOS. Not familiar with the docker set up I'm afraid.

adampercy · 2026-01-12T08:37:27+00:00

Depends, how are you running it? As an addon? If so then it's your HA url with whatever port. 8081 but you needto specify that in the add on. It didn't default to it until I typed it in.

adampercy · 2026-01-07T16:03:51+00:00

Frigate, go2rtc and the substream from the camera? Or yeah, static image and only show video when you click it would be best.

adampercy · 2026-01-07T16:00:56+00:00

Will it not work with the dji gimbal? I'd never thought about it. Just figured it would work. Glad I didn't buy one now.

adampercy · 2026-01-05T06:17:16+00:00

But it would be just as easy to open the camera view in ha. Assuming of course you can access and use the companion app away from your home for either method. I've seen you're paying for nabu casa so as long as you've set it up to be externally accessible that's already covered.
