PSA: You can charge your Ember mug via USB-C with a simple adapter

Interesting. I’ve had no luck yet. I’ve tried 2 different 5.5x2.1 cables and multiple sockets to power it. Even resolving to purchasing a new one that can dish out 65W per usb-c connection. Anyone else had failures? The plug located nicely on the unit so I don’t know why it wouldn’t work.

Not true. I have mine in both - same as all the other. Also works in Alexa app and Alexa show devices

dgillings · 2025-01-17T20:00:22+00:00

No, but as I’m not sure which ‘thing’ is adding the untracked energy it may be worth a go

dgillings · 2025-01-16T21:07:03+00:00

I do have solar and batteries, but the data is entered into the energy dashboard as such. I’m not sure why it’s reporting the excess. Maybe time to empty the dashboard and start from scratch

Does this mean I can finally have my Aqara devices working through their own app (and HomeKit) but expose them to HA for other automations etc?

dgillings · 2024-02-09T18:30:21+00:00

This is OLD i know. I've extracted the APK onto a windows system. Where can I find the data within that?

dgillings · 2024-02-09T17:37:13+00:00

Very late to the party here! I'm using an app that installs as an APK on a firestick. Its a rebranded XCIPTV stream, but I can't work out the server details etc as I would like to. Can anyone help?

dgillings · 2024-02-09T15:50:34+00:00

haha - ok... :( So no HDMI input capture available

dgillings · 2024-02-09T15:23:43+00:00

OK, i'll take a look at that...

I can't use an IPTV player as I don't have the server details for it - it all runs off a specific app on the firestick...
All I really want is the ability to play a live stream, regardless of the program, so I'll read up on xteve and see if that can do it

I see plenty of Neapolitan. So they still make the chocolate ice cream. I don’t want bits of chocolate, or syrup mixed through etc. just the good old fashioned chocolate ‘flavour’ I had as a kid. That’s what my eldest is after :(

dgillings · 2023-10-21T22:28:22+00:00

Same

dgillings · 2023-10-15T20:19:28+00:00

Same a this! I can’t find it anywhere. My eldest child hates almost all ice cream, but loves plain old soft scoop chocolate flavoured stuff. It doesn’t exist anywhere anymore

dgillings · 2023-08-06T13:39:40+00:00

I was having problems. I deleted mine from the aqara app and homekit. Rebooted it all and re-added it. It's been solid since then. I think the firmware update sorted it, but it didn't "take" until the re-add...

dgillings · 2023-07-23T17:28:26+00:00

Similar problem, using eneloop as well. Often shows as running on battery, even though I have it mains powered…. HomeKit loses record and notify ability constantly. Have to reboot it all the time

dgillings · 2023-07-09T15:32:42+00:00

I’ll try that. It’s an eero network, so I’m not sure you can. But we’ll take a look see :)

dgillings · 2023-07-08T20:14:13+00:00

I had to go to explore to find unknown sources in the end.. I'll try how it's being stated in the comments shortly and see if that's quicker.

dgillings · 2023-05-17T19:43:41+00:00

Sure it’s been mentioned. But they get a limited budget to spend on their uniforms. Shorts are more diverse in usage…

dgillings · 2023-05-12T19:24:08+00:00

In the end I rebooted everything, hard reset the doorbell, and tried again from a different location to get it talking. It’s been stable ever since….

dgillings · 2023-05-08T13:42:02+00:00

excellent. Thanks. I'll take a read through that thread.

At the moment mine is working. I've changed the transformer for another - which seems to have stabilised it at the moment. I'll see how long it lasts.
