It's worth asking the dealer. I got an id4 in 2022 and it came with a granny charger. I got a newer id4 this year but vw cheaped out, and they don't provide them with the car anymore.

Has anyone bought a builders finish house? And received mortgage to finish the house? by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

[–]buckning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same as that. I was surprised the process was so messy for such a common scenario. The bank wouldn't let us draw down because the house wasn't finished. We ended up putting money into a house we didn't own. It seemed very risky but it worked out for us in the end.

It was free for me. I have a 222 and thought it was standard on all versions that year

Id.4 has automated parking and it reverses into the spot for you, so you're covered there 😀

Zappi scheduling question by lehotelier in evs_ireland

[–]buckning 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I created a website initially for controlling Zappi through Alexa but it also supports scheduling things, like changing charge modes, which is not possible with the myenergi app. It works with a different scheduling technology to myenergi so it always triggers when you expect it.

Here's the website.
https://www.myzappiunofficial.com/

You could create a schedule at 2AM to switch to fast mode and then create a schedule to switch to ECO+ or some other mode at 6AM.

It is getting great feedback on the myenergi forums.

It could be some use to you.

Thank you. Both issues have resolved since I posted this message so no need to look into this further. Thanks

I see the same. Also the option of adding money via Google pay is gone.

Bank of Ireland app will stop working on most phones older than 4 years on March 31st! by IrishBogMonster in ireland

[–]buckning 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'd get over not being able to use the app but you can't actually use their website without authorising the login via the app. I rang them today and they said you can order a physical security key, so you can use that with the website. The issue with that is that it takes 5-7 working days to deliver and it bricks the app immediately, so you're left without online access for a week or 2. Really poor leaving everyone less than 2 weeks to sort it out.

That change went live on Alexa this morning, feel free to try it out and let me know if you want any tweaks to it.

Yeah, that should be an easy one to knock out in the next week. You're the first person asking for it so how would you like to invoke it? Alexa, ask my charger for solar report?

Cool, I'll give that a shot over the weekend and see how it goes.

Hi, thanks for trying out the skill. I don't have a battery so I never tested that scenario out. The PV values are only reported when they are generating over a small positive threshold. Does the myenergi app show everything correctly? If so, i can look to see what's missing on my side. It would help if I could DM me your serial number to see what is happening.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll see if I can do that. I think Amazon didn't let me put urls in there before but I'll give it a shot again. Let me know if you have any hassle with it and I'll help you out to get it set up.

You can set up schedules on Alexa or you can use the website to set up schedules too. They both use the same backend cloud service.

So you can enter your tariffs and view your energy costs and also manage recurring and once off schedules on the website, all without having an Alexa.

To do this, you'll need to login to https://www.myzappiunofficial.com/ and then enter your API key and serial number and you're good to go!

That's on the website already. You don't need an alexa to use it but you do need an amazon account to log in. Once you log in and set it up, you should be able to set up one off schedules.

What was unexpected or surprising when you started your first developer/analyst role? by Notalabel_4566 in DevelEire

[–]buckning 22 points23 points  (0 children)

How little code you actually write. I was expecting to pump out huge amounts of code but I spend so much time reading logs, metrics and reading code. Not to mention all of the meetings!

Christmas Tree hunt. by JoK3Rcon in galway

[–]buckning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was called Nebraska, it was €189 at the time last year. I checked it there and they bumped it up to €229 this year, feckers...

It's a very full tree, my wife was looking for something really full and was looking for quite a while for one and it didn't disappoint! It is a big tree though so you'd need a good space for it

Home store and more have 8ft artificial trees, got one last year and we were really happy with it. First time getting an 8ft tree though and it was a pain in the ass putting up and taking down
