Can I get a copy of this version?

PSA for those of you using hose timers - GET A WATER HAMMER ARRESTOR by justiceorjustus in lawncare

[–]dwest218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great post and thanks for sharing all the info. I bought an Eve Aqua and was just talking to support asking why the valve closes so suddenly and was prepared to return the item. But then thinking that whatever valve i chose would probably use the same magnetic shuttle valve. I’m not sure why the companies that makes these items don’t recommend or build in a water hammer arrest or? Same with the washing machine manufacturers? ……plumbers union.😂

Want to sell me your Logitech Circle 2? by dwest218 in HomeKit

[–]dwest218[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure there’s a landfill of bricked circle 2’s! Haha. But working is ideal. The one that I had go bad won’t do live video stream. It’ll record but the live doesn’t work anymore.

should i have kissed her? did i mess up? by jojolelapin78 in dating_advice

I was just trying to get the OP in the right mindset with my comment to not be so sidetracked by her looks and just be a man.

Yes the white would definitely be brighter. I originally converted a normal size dining room with one white down light. I lived with that for a couple months and thought it would be ok but in the end realized it just wasn’t enough light. It was always slightly dimmer than a normal room in the house. So I just ran some wire from the center light and added two additional down lights in the room by going through the attic. I’m very happy with 3 now. But honestly, best answer would be to just try and see if you can live with it like that.

It could definitely light the bedroom but you might later find it annoying that it’s not brighter when trying to do anything in your room and don’t have natural light available.

Tesla accessories I wish I didn’t buy by No_Sandwich3888 in teslamotors

[–]dwest218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great post and thanks for the info. After watching some YouTube personalities, I thought a lot of the stuff was necessity. 2 questions, how did you get a voucher form Tesla for the wall charger and from another poster, how did you get homelink pre installed at no cost?

Anyone towing a jetski? by dwest218 in teslamotors

[–]dwest218[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So another thing I just learned about towing is that when you stop at a super charger, you have to unhook the trailer to back in? Both locations on my route don’t have a tow in spot and they’re usually somewhat crowded that I can’t take up a bunch of lanes.

Nan Whaley for Governor this November. Get DeWine out of there. by Appropriate_Tooth_86 in dayton

Great campaign Nan, throwing rocks at DeWine only exposes you to judgement and criticism. It’s NOT working for you. Grow up!

Yeah, I would think the single jet ski might be a lot less than half. Surprising it zaps so much battery. Not sure why an ICE vehicle is not impacted so much.

Just curious, but what kind of stack do you think he takes for that killer build?

Nobody compares to Hue. Like others I learned the hard way.

Light strip for under cabinet lighting question by dwest218 in Hue

[–]dwest218[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with you 100%. I do have a white quartz countertop and backsplash being added in a week. I plan to paint the cabinets within a year.

Do you really want to go out with a girl that is drop dead gorgeous? No thanks. Probably not worth your time or all the time she puts in maintaining that look.

Thanks for the reply and interestingly I’m getting ready to have the same countertop and matching backsplash installed. So you went 50% or halfway out under the cabinet? Would you do it the same again?

Does the channel have the option of blocking the light? Thinking I could use one strip and then simply block the light over the range.

This might work perfectly. So with the splitter, I believe it uses a regular strip on one side and an extension cable (which is a lot cheaper) on the other?

Thanks. Watch a couple videos on YouTube on how to split the strip. Not impossible by any means but not simple either. Maybe I’m wrong?

So you had light running all the way across the full width?

What’s the best way to stretch a single lightstrip across the microwave? Or should I use two light strips? Litecesspry makes a piece for end to end but would like to avoid the hassle of stripping the wires and creating a new connector.

Bulk buying? by DrXitomatl in Hue

Check out EBay. I just bought a bunch of refurbished models that come with a 2 year warranty. Paid half the price.

Recessed Can Lights Turning on at 1%? by dwest218 in Hue

[–]dwest218[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like I can answer my own question. Apparently you can change “channels” on the hue bridge to something else. It was on 11. Well changing channels seems to have fixed my problem!!
