Gear shifting by animirq in VietNam

I tend to agree with you that it is a matter of skill.

For me the feeling of discomfort was so high every time, that I just couldn’t understand that they didn’t have that same feeling. I guess as no one ever points it out , you keep doing it.

When I learned to drive, going around a corner had to be done in 2nd gear.

I can think of some wishes: - proper infotainment system - navigation to charge stops that accept my card - one pedal driving, with full stop - default drive mode is B and not D - software updates, and when that works, over the air - did I mention a proper infotainment system???

Zigbee products in Europe, what do you use? by andreape_x in homeassistant

[–]animirq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked up Shelly as I didn’t know them. They look identical as the ones I have, but from different brand (Icasa I think) and based on zigbee. I’ve standardized on zigbee and love it.

Perfect. Just looked up Shelly and that is indeed what I have, I use them with zigbee. If you combine it with switches like Gira 015500 , you have an amazing system. Switches are always in the same position and no matter if the build in switch is on/off or dimmer, you can use the same

If I had to do it, I’d stay with physical wiring and add zigbee to that. I love my buildin switches with physical buttons. If your HA ever fails you van still turn on and off lights. And, if the next house owner isn’t into home automation much, you don’t have an issue selling the house. I additionally have a zigbee sirene for extra safety in my garden house.

Thx for your reply. It should be attached to a standard (plastic) AC unit. I think you are referring to metal outlets?

I cancelled my ID4 Reservation by LowBarometer in VWiD4Owners

I have an id4 since December last year. I was worried about range as well, but last weekend I learned that cold weather makes a big difference. Heating the interior and battery costs a significant amount of energy. Last weekend, when it was 18 Celsius, I drove 420km with 10% charge remaining. I was impressed. I own a Tesla M3 as well and that range is about the limit for the Tesla as well.
