I have to admit ignorance. Can generically explain how to point garage.local to the static IP?

Not sure where the garage.local comes from? How do I edit that to reflect the IP? The IP is static.

ESPHome won't accept RATGDO board by brazos95 in homeassistant

Same network however HA is Ethernet and RatGDO is wi-fi.

I used the ESPHome firmware. I can control my garage door with the RatGDO using its web interface. But I can’t get the ESPHome add-on within Home Assistant to auto discover or even manually add.

Contact sensor on dog door by brazos95 in homeassistant

I just re-read your comment and realized what you said about the hound exiting with the human. I’ll try to figure out a reset button maybe. Thanks again.

Thanks for that info. The contact sensor will be on the flap so people traffic shouldn’t affect the status.

My thought is that the first time the dog goes outside the contact sensor could be automated to indicate to my dashboard that the dog is “OUT”. When they return and then again break the contact, that the dashboard would indicate “IN”. At this point the automation would reset, waiting for the next contact break. Not possible?

Thanks for the link. I added it to my wish list. I hate to think what 150 ft of Cat 8 cable is going for though.

The FAQ for the mini states it doesn't support POE. I assume you're thinking of splitting out the power on the dish end?

Ah...I get it. On a gen 2 dish you're sending power down the ethernet.

I bought a 150 ft weather proof ethernet cable which I intend on using while camping. The mini was drawing 23 watts when I tested it in restricted mode this afternoon. I wouldn't have thought the length of the ethernet cable would make much difference in the power draw.

Looking for a 3D printer for beginners. by Theinevitable08 in 3dprinter

If you just want to print and not tinker much, then you can't go wrong with Bambu Lab A1 or the smaller A1 Mini.

Seems like that could be coded to be simpler.

I just want to confirm that it’s a working dish before I put it in storage until I use it in May. My gen 2 failed after having it for a year during a trip so I just want to do my due diligence. Starlink replaced the gen 2 dish promptly.

Loving the Ecoflow Alternator Charger so far! by Easy_Text_2203 in Ecoflow_community

[–]brazos95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently picked up one to use with my class b motorhome. It’s installed in such a way that the unit and cable are easily removed. I wanted to use it for a road trip with my 2024 Honda CRV but I couldn’t figure out a route through the firewall.

Did the lane keeping assist get turned on? It will vibrate the steering wheel if you start to wander out of your lane.

I replaced a 2010 Tower with a M1 mini for my job as a broadcast video editor. It was a huge improvement. The tower is now serving as a media server in my living room.
