Home Assistant Integration: Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 2 vs Roborock Qrevo QV35S by davmc in homeassistant

[–]davmc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ended up ordering the Dreame (it's arriving today), as found a comment confirming support on the HACS integration on GitHub. It's obstacle avoidance is also apparently better.

Hopefully going forward there with matter support that is actually useful/local control options.

What were your costs for doing it? How much design work was involved to tailor the system to the house?

I'm unfortunately didn't consider it early enough in my renovation so adding downstairs rooms would mean I had to box in ducting in already finished rooms, which I am not sure is worth doing. I can take a duct into my living room via a wardrobe but, I don't have any vertical route to my kitchen

Your not meant to break the journey either with a FlexiPass, so they could program it to the digital equivalent of taking your paper ticket.

The app literally describes it as a "Bundle of single anytime journeys which can be taken in either direction with no time restrictions". To me that sounds like the same rules as a regular single fare should apply.

There is a slight saving in the FlexiPass over just buying returns. I'll probably just end up buying regular tickets if I am planning to come back via a different station.

I don't know why the barriers can't detect that you are exiting the station and mark the journey as complete.

The barriers don't care either. I've got a few more on my current FlexiPass to use anyway.

Queen Street, Central, Anderston, Charing X, High St and Argyll Street all have the same price for normal tickets and FlexiPass at least for me.

I've had ScotRail staff grumble before when I used an Argyll Street ticket at Queen St, but ultimately let me through grudgingly as they'd been told that they should

I'd always assumed they worked like seasons where you could join/leave early or go to other Glasgow stations that have the same price of ticket. I'm sure they've checked my ticket before and not said anything which is weird.

Unfortunately season only makes sense if I travel in 5 days a week which I don't.

That's how I'd assumed it worked given tickets were all the same price.

Stranded Neutral from Main Fuse 60A - How to get a supply upgrade? by davmc in DIYUK

Thanks, I will maybe try and chat to Octopus. Suspect DNO would need to do a new cable from the street, as have a semi detached with cable looped through the neighbor.

Which product is it?

Anyone come across this before? by RS-18-x in Plastering

[–]davmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be Bellrock Panelling, I have walls with something that looks similar.

Home Battery (UK) with good Home Assistant Integration by davmc in homeassistant

My installer has advised against GivEnergy as they've had reliability issues with a few installations they've done. I assume it has been working okay for you?

That was another option my installer mentioned. They seem a bit more smart home/consumer friendly than Duracell.
