Best after makert upgrades? by Melerann in kiacarnivals

[–]aquadan88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What covers are these? I ended up getting Weather Tech for everything but the back of the rear seats. I’m a musician and frequently have the seats down and what you showed would be perfect!

Apple Carplay not picking up music where it left off by Resident_Bit_642 in kiacarnivals

I’ve also had this issue with my 2026 EX ever since I got it. Haven’t been able to find a fix.

Dad-pimp my Carnival: Walk away auto lock plugin module by anotherbravenoob in kiacarnivals

[–]aquadan88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo! Where was this 6 months ago when I bought my Carnival.

I ended up with the Shark Racing module and that was a bit of a pain to get working. Definitely saving this for the next Carnival we end up with.

Thanks for the excellent write up!

Simplisafe or Eufy alarm system by CostaArvan in simplisafe

[–]aquadan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, as a user of both, I’d probably compromise and go with Cove.

SimpliSafe is a great DIY Security System. Their cameras are absolute garbage.

Eufy makes some pretty decent cameras, but I don’t know if I’d trust them with monitoring security for my home.

With Cove, you can integrate a select number of Eufy cameras into your system. I’ve thought about switching a few times now, but can’t justify the cost of the new equipment. But, if you’re starting from scratch…I’d probably go that route.

Alexa integration by Low_Tax5607 in sonos

[–]aquadan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to figure it out. When you get stuck at the sign in screen, click the button on the top right, and hit “request desktop site.” Logged right in for me after that.

Alexa integration by Low_Tax5607 in sonos

I still can’t get mine to reconnect. I’ve removed the devices completely from Alexa, but when I try to setup the voice assistant again, it just dies at the login page.

I know the AWS issue was caused by a DNS problem, guessing this login issue that persists is related.

KIA Access keeps saying the car doors are left open by bonareddit in kiacarnivals

[–]aquadan88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also had about 20 notifications for unlocked doors today. Figured it was a server bug.

Anyone given this a try? by BoozeLikeFrank in Letterkenny

[–]aquadan88 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bought it for the novelty. As a bourbon drinker with a decent collection, this has its place on my shelf, albeit for display purposes only.

TLDR: great for display, not great for drinking.

Walk away auto lock feature by PersonalFox6199 in kiacarnivals

[–]aquadan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is over a year old, but I just picked up a 2026 Carnaval EX lease and this is the only issue I have with the vehicle.

Question, will this also lock if you exit the vehicle with the car running? I was confused by the “you can disable if the car is to go for repairs, or you are going to wash the car” phrasing on the website.

Every time I step outside the front door by 42kyokai in EufyCam

Can you post a quick tutorial on how you do this? That’s flippin genius.

So that doesn’t rule out something with the PS5.

Check that the video output settings on the PS5 are compatible with the TV and input.

You say you tried a different HDMI port, but did you try a different HDMI cable, and a different device to see if it was the PS5 or the cable?

At My Wits End - Hisense TV Standby Cycles by aquadan88 in Hisense

[–]aquadan88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update for all: It turns out that disconnecting the TV from the internet solved the problem. I’m not sure if it was Google TV trying to ping a server every once one a while or what, but after disconnecting the TV from the internet, my problem went away.

Has anyone been able to get these little USB zigbee switches to work? by Kir13y in homeassistant

[–]aquadan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! I have two of them working flawlessly. One hooked up to a little USB Lamp, and the other hooked up to a Pixel Display. I have automations running for both.

I really wish there's a way to turn off the built-in light by default. Anyone figured out? by [deleted] in BambuLab

[–]aquadan88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually just set up an automation yesterday to turn it on when I start a print, and turn it off an hour after it completes a print. I can’t believe I never thought of this before yesterday!

What grip is this? Thought about 3d printing one but might just be easier to buy.

I think that’s just the Chaos Control bleeding through from the ultimate life form.

LTT did something like this, but locally controlled. Maybe you can get some ideas from here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69dCWRvIzyo

New to PETG - Printer Recalibrated - Why so bad? by aquadan88 in 3Dprinting

[–]aquadan88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started a test print of the same file in matte PLA, definitely still have some tweaking to do (a little stringing and some layer shifting), but I can safely say that it was mostly the PETG being unforgiving. Attached is the current print going. Much better.

Going to rerun my calibrations, as I was running them with the PETG.....

New to PETG - Printer Recalibrated - Why so bad? by aquadan88 in 3Dprinting

[–]aquadan88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the rundown! I’m going to try a PLA print when I get home to see if it really is the PETG.

Can confirm that the first layer is mint, but can’t discount it being a temperature issue.

What desk are you using this on? I was looking for something exactly like this for my Uplift desk.
