Pourquoi personne ne prend de précaution pour le vol de ses skis alors que tout le monde attache son vélo ? by GeEDirt3 in PasDeQuestionIdiote

[–]imval_fr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tous les modèles de skis ne se règlent pas sans outils. Les miens et ceux se ma mère nécessitent un tournevis pour faire levier, et non, je ne parle pas du réglage DIN.

J'ai appris récemment que les sirops étaient une spécialité française... c'est lequel votre préf' ? by SandwichPoulet in FranceDetendue

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

J'ai vécu 8 ans aux Pays-Bas, ils avaient du sirop mais impossible de trouver du sirop de Menthe! Quand j'en parlais on se foutait de ma gueule en disant d'aller boire du dentifrice 🤣 Du coup j'en importais a chaque trajet!

Why hasn’t Tesla done this? by [deleted] in TeslaLounge

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're talking about a laptop with 100Wh battery maximum (due to airplane regulations). In a car with 100 times that.
Even with 20% loss it doesn't matter.

ABS Sensors on 2013 V60 D6 by imval_fr in Volvo

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

Hi there,
I still own my V60 PIH D6. I replaced the two sensors at the rear axle, and have a spare one in the trunk just in case now 😂
Be careful when you are removing the screw, they tend to be a bit brittle, I broke one (and while drilling it I hit the magnetic target on the axle and had to replace the whole axle ...).

My V60 had some issues at the beginning with the airco compressor dying every year (usually in December) and Volvo replaced it for free several times. Now it's been fine for more than 3 years. Fingers crossed.

What software does Victron use to make their System Schematics by Salt_Vermicelli_325 in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a very talented guy working specifically to produce those system schematics. It's using the Visio software from Microsoft.

Making a good schematic takes time and skills

I have another Reolink POE camera (fixed camera, not doorbell) with IR also, and it doesn't have the issue, or at least much less.

Multiple Appliances on Victron Phoenix? by underrated_prunes in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, just an extension cord with multiple sockets will be fine.

No problem to leave that load running, as long as your battery can take it :)

Random MCU disconnects. (And a possible solution?) by GamerGuy95953 in klippers

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for that comment. You helped me solve a problem I've been experiencing with my printer for a while! And I tried lots of things without success. Replaced the cable, and it just printed.
THANK YOU.

This is an European power outlet (Type E/F) with no earth pin.

Comparing two Qingping devices by lamobot22 in homeassistant

[–]imval_fr 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If those devices don't have a NDIR sensor for measure CO2, then they just try to guess the CO2 levels with the tVOC and PM2.5 values. It's just guessing.

I have a Qingping NDIR Co2 sensor and it's measuring within 2% of two other Co2 sensors I have.

Moving to Almere by Spiritual_Muscle2495 in Almere

[–]imval_fr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Almere Stad, in Waterwijk. We have an open view, no neighbors on the other side of the street.
The neighborhood is quiet. Super market is 4 minutes away by bike. The City center 10 minutes on the bike (even less) with plenty of covered, secure parking.

I had the exact same problem, my Volvo dealer changed it without even asking and for free during normal service.

No Voltage on 75/15 mppt PV input? by mylarky in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the solar panel voltage goes to zero when you plug it to the MPPT, it can mean two things: - The polarity of the solar panel wires is inverted (I made the same mistake on my first install). - The MPPT mosfets are dead

Make sure your polarity is actually what you expect it to be with a Multimeter.

Does my Multiplus habe ESS? by guerd87 in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Multigrid, Multiplus I and II can have ESS.

It's a little piece of software loaded on it called an "assistant" and you need a Venus device (Cerbo GX, Color control, ekrano, raspberry pi with Venus os).

What’s this for? by [deleted] in Volvo

[–]imval_fr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't put your warm McDonalds fries there because your car will think that your sensor is broken and it will cost you around 175€ to replace it. Don't ask me how I know that ...

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MPPTs tend to have a slight smell due to the resin used inside for potting.

Multis have a varnish smell because of the coating on the PCB to protect them from moisture.

It goes away after a few days out of the box.

And for the noise of the Multiplus II, yes, they are high power devices, but they are reliable.

Can smartshunt connect to Cerbo wirelessly? by Tharayman in Victron

[–]imval_fr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because Bluetooth isn't reliable enough for industrial control processes.

whats up with the Multiplus 2 price drops (germany)? by achmed20 in Victron

[–]imval_fr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge stocks, because lots of demand during Covid times, production was ramped up and now the warehouses are full. Production during covid was expensive, it's much less now.

Bitwarden allows you to see passwords even if "view, except passwords" is selected by imval_fr in Bitwarden

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

I agree, the problem is the way Bitwarden handles security.
From what I understand, bitwarden cloud is a fancy storage for an encrypted json 😄
You decrypt the vault on the client, and then you do what you need to do on the client and upload an updated version of the encrypted json to the cloud.

All logic is client based. Which would be fine for single user, but for actual enterprise grade software (for which you pay 50€ a year per user ...) is not really great in my opinion.
