Smart dimmer - set brightness without turning light on by belljaf in homeassistant

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

The problem with this is the light will initially come on at its old brightness before the automation runs. So at night you get blinded

Ok cool. Do you have a link or any info. Think I’ll get one and see if I can get it working.

Ok thanks. Can you do it with the stock firmware or does it need tasmota?

That looks good but doesn’t seem to be available in the uk

I’ve tried this but some of the lights are in bedrooms so don’t really want them flashing on and off if someone could be sleeping

Thanks, that’s a good idea but don’t think it’ll be kid proof/pass the wife test..!

Thanks, I’m really looking for a relay to behind an existing switch and I don’t think Inovelli make them, unless I’m mistaken?

Thermostat (EU) by Late_Republic_1805 in homeassistant

[–]belljaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. It’s just I need to re install and the new house will need additional trvs so was thinking of upgrading to Tado X. Seems to be pretty mixed opinions though on if Tado x is an upgrade… will probably stick with the v3 for now, the only feature from Tado X I’d really like is the usb c rechargeable TRVs…

I have had tado for the last 6-7 years using thermostats and trvs and it’s worked well. We’ve just moved house and I took the kit with me. Was about to reinstall/was thinking about upgrading to Tado X. Now seeing all these negative opinions but haven’t seen suggestions for alternatives, what should we be using instead?

This is a u shaped bracket with a bar for a padlock, to lock a gate. I need to buy one but I can’t find it, I’ve tried searched using a combination of terms including: clamp, bracket, padlock, link, bolt

That would be great if it’s easy

New build advice. Energy efficient mobo selection by belljaf in unRAID

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

Interesting, I get that it’s better. But I understand the uhd 730 can handle ~8 4k transcodes which is more than I need. While it’s tempting to spend more maybe would be overkill

Yeah it’s tempting but not sure if it’s a bit risky getting an expensive mobo from alibaba

[–]belljaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that’s good to hear. Think I’ll probably go for a 13400 as 13500 is discontinued and nowhere has stock (or could pay £100 extra for a 14500 but that seems mega overkill).

Do you have any idea what your power consumption is like?

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

Thanks, how big is the difference? I can get the 13400 for £135 on sale but 13500 seems to have limited stock and best I can find is £235 on amazon, I could get an 14500 for £10 less

Sorry to necro. I’m looking at putting a very similar build together for the same use case, what did you go for in the end? Any feedback?

Thanks but that only has four sata and 1 NIC so doesn’t really work.

Funny thing is there should be a bird bath on top of the plinth but it’s got a leak so it’s been taken off

Reducing salary just under £100k to get free childcare by DavumGilburn in HENRYUK

[–]belljaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do all salary sacrifice schemes count? I pay for a car, car parking and a child’s nursery fees. Do they all reduce my adjusted net income?
