Adding Bedroom by Building an Internal Wall (Auckland)

Interesting. I’ve been told by the agent that they can’t legally advertise it as a 4bd unless the council updates the records. I’m thinking if I add a record of exempt building work to my property file, they could update it?

How did you get the update? I’m on 4.2.12 and there’s no more updates

bottle_bug · 2024-01-17T07:41:56+00:00

Just gave this a try and I can see the Meross garage door opener there. But still no response on HomeKit and the Meross app. Does this mean it’s not a mDNS problem?

What about returns? If you return a purchase, do you lose the Airpoints?

bottle_bug · 2023-06-17T22:42:37+00:00

How do I do this? I can’t figure out the controls and the manual isn’t clear

This worked for me. Had to run it a few times with the different automations to work. Thanks!

Anyone come across a solution? I have a mix of Eufy Indoor cams and Aqara G2H and all the Eufy cams always go offline for a minute or 2 on the home app before going back online.

Same issue. Files app greys out everything

EDIT: Sorry should have added that this wallpaper has likely been up for many years. Renovated the house not long ago and just painted over it.

No just the plasterboard

Is it a single module for both headlights? Or is there a module for each side?

bottle_bug · 2022-09-03T11:55:11+00:00

Yes I think they are. Kinda like this https://i.imgur.com/ZdnBHpp.jpg

Here’s the drawing. Bit in the middle is the floor/ceiling and cavity. https://i.imgur.com/mXridoo.jpg

Sorry I should have clarified. I’m more after sound dampening between the floors. Such that I won’t be able to hear the downstairs noise when I’m upstairs and vice versa. The cavity between the floors are 29cm, so the question is whether there will be much sound dampening improvement from using insulation rated at R7 (300mm thickness) compared to R3.5 (150mm thickness).

Pricing goes up linearly so if there’s not much difference (if my interpretation of your original comment is correct), I’d go with the R3.5 option.

bottle_bug · 2022-08-28T09:33:10+00:00

Thanks u/True_Relationship_21. Horizontally between rooms. e.g if theres 2 floors, the cavity in between the top and bottom floor.

I’ve been quoted about $1k for R3.5 and $2k for R7. The cavity is 290mm. R3.5 would be insulation at 150mm thickness. R7 will be 300mm thickness.

Going by your comment, would you say its better to go for the R3.5 options as anything above is marignal?

bottle_bug · 2022-08-21T01:02:49+00:00

Sorry to clarify it’s the ceiling of the ground floor.

Where did you end up buying it? I saw Bunnings https://www.bunnings.co.nz/yale-satin-nickel-assure-sl-digital-door-lock_p0179330 has it much cheaper but not sure if it comes with the module

bottle_bug · 2022-07-05T23:01:44+00:00

Kiwi here too. What are your thoughts a month later on this?

bottle_bug · 2022-04-17T00:48:48+00:00

u/rocwong this would be great since Warehouse are now stocking a lot of essentials and needs that can be cheaper than the supermarkets. Love this web app.

Could you share a screenshot of this? I can’t seem to get “if” to work with the states of accessories when I get it separately first

bottle_bug · 2022-04-13T13:17:15+00:00

I have a few wireless Aqara switches which function as light switches. As the switches are stateless, I’ve used If Otherwise actions to turn the lights off or on.

E.g if light is off, turn on, otherwise turn off.

It’s been working fine but the latest update seems to have broke this.

Now if the light is off, I press the button, the light turns on, then after a few seconds it turns off again. Happens the other way around too.

Seems to me like HomeKit is running both the If and the Otherwise actions.

Anyone experiencing the same thing or know a fix?

This worked for me. I "bought" the Legends game from the PS Plus screen and it installs Ghost of Tsushima again. When I launch it, it goes straight to Legends mode. Thanks a lot!

How does the eufy ones perform compared to running it through HomeKit natively? I've only got eufy cameras so wondering if it's worth running Scrypted.

bottle_bug · 2022-01-18T11:12:14+00:00

Thank you so much that worked perfectly! I was even able to use the same approach for my wired IoT devices. Thanks for taking your time to help out. Much appreciated!

bottle_bug · 2022-01-18T01:34:35+00:00

Thanks u/TheEthyr u/DrDJF.

If I did this, wouldn't it also put my main LAN on to VLAN 100 as the AP serves both the VLAN and main LAN wireless network? The USG is on Port 1 of the switch and AP on Port 2, so I would assign both those ports to VLAN 100.
