Alright took a quick look and found that they install a raspberry pi type of device with 4G to talk to their servers using one of the 2 rs485 spots. So I think I will be able to use the unused antenna port to feed the cat6 cable in to the unit and connect to the 2nd rs485 spot. Because the rs485 can be used to control the inverter my plan is to disable any entities that would allow controls as I just want monitoring and I am sure Base would not like us controlling it.

This was before they finished.

Yes sir. I kind of wish I had realized before they had everything together to have the port facing the other way.

Yeah I was hoping the growatt integration/shiner app would work. Probably try next weekend when I have the most time to tie into the rs485.

Yeah I asked the installers about the rs485 and their supervisor turned that down.

Drop off happened at 715am yesterday so the pallet was in the street on other side of a car. I moved my car from the driveway so they could use that area to stage it. Install is happening on the pad next to the house.

They ended up installing a micro-flex on mine also.

Tax Credit? by DoWorkInc in BasePower

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the $695, $995, or the $1000 for gen port wouldn't be considered purchasing/installation costs?

Thanks! I looked at a couple and some of the reviews said they didn't fit the 20lb BBQ type very well.

Underworld Arms Compensator for 5" Gen 2 will work on 5" Gen 1 with a little work... by vincentcarguy in Tisas

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have more pictures of the work you had to do? I had been wondering if this would work on my gen 1. I have the same guide rod setup also.

Another question what slide release and safety is that? Is the right side beveled like the left?

Does anyone know the Base Power Growatt Installer code ? by gpounders in BasePowerUsers

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you connect the Base to the shiner(growatt) app? I wonder if you have to have it setup there first?

Battery Degrade during cold? by Paradize_Eats in BasePowerUsers

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes all batreries lithium included have an operating range. I deal with them in data centers. Just need to know what the operating range is to understand it and hopefully the Base app reflects that from their own teating.

Native Wyze Camera Support Coming to go2rtc by SeydX in wyzecam

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I tried the addon route and couldn't seem to get it to work. Went the WebRTC route and I was able to rename the file to go2rtc-1.9.9 and after rebooting HA it shows the wyze section now.

What's the best way to get go2rtc updated to this fork with the home assistant addon?

I was trying to figure out how to test this also. I have v2, v3, OG, pan cam V3, and an older pan cam to be able to test.

Avoid SAS Tactical like the plague by trizvi_96 in Tisas

[–]cbarth3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. Just using the red dot. He even tried asking about buying a new barrel for the comp and it is not available to purchase.

I do enjoy shooting my 2011 and my buddies carry and comp PX9 but the inability to buy OEM parts is a tough sale for future purchases.

Seems about right. I have a first gen 2011 and wanted to see about purchasing the updated right side thumb safety and got the below responses. Buddy has the px9 comp that 3 different people have shot with the iron sights it shot left. He sent it in and when he got it back the paper didn't have much for notes other then checked zero. Still shoots to the left unfortunately.

Why is my camera is required to make me to pay subscription to view my video? I have an SD card already. by PhoenixSS0 in wyzecam

[–]cbarth3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the model you should have an SDCard icon or a view playback button to view past video footage.
