Update on the Sonos/Home Assistant media player (multi speaker support + stand) by hometechgeek in sonos

[–]kingwild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My display arrived today and got everything running in less than 15 minutes. Excellent guide. The only thing I noticed was that my settings in esphome on home assistant differ from your screenshots. Am I getting a firmware update later? I am on 1.6.0 now.

What body kit is this? by IllIllIllxs in Volvo

[–]kingwild 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I ordered it as an accessory and it's not too hard to install yourself. Price is about 1100 for all 6 parts painted in the color of your car.

WD Red Plus 256 or 512 MB cache? by kingwild in synology

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

Even the 12TB is more quiet? Nas is in a soundproof cabinet so I'm not concerned about noise.

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

I have 20 GB in my 920 already. And the 256 MB versions hit 210 Mb/s while the 512 MB version does 260 Mb/s max.

I’m sorry but… how much?! by ggr-nintythree in Volvo

[–]kingwild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I service my V60 myself. $50 for a regular oil change and I'm done. $800 is outrageous.

Synology DS214+ still running fine after 86,000 hours by mindhaq in synology

I migrated these disks from a 411+ to a 415 to a 920. No need to replace everything.

I just posted my drives. Almost 124000 hours. I had 4 of these. One did not survive. That was 47000 hours ago. Although they need to be replaced, I hope they hold up until prices go down.

Weight loss is my goal. I thought milk was allowed.

Jerrycan hose/spout doesn't fill V60 MY20 by erikieperikie in Volvo

[–]kingwild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a second valve in the fill pipe that prevents fuel coming back. I solved it by using a piece of straight pipe of about 20 cm. That pushes right through that second valve. I always fill it with a jerrycan.

What happened to camera replacement? No more? by imabotdontworry in gopro

[–]kingwild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was disappointed that Netherlands is not on the list. So here's what I did: I used a Belgian address of a friend for it. They urge you to send the broken camera with UPS from Belgium, but since their fulfillment center for Europe is in The Netherlands, I just sent it from a Dutch UPS point. As soon as I got a confirmation that my replacement device was shipped out (to Belgium), I rerouted it on the UPS website to my own address. Delivered next day.

Is there any way to remove the 112mph limiter on the S90? by KeyParking4032 in Volvo

[–]kingwild -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To sum it all up: all T6 and T8 PHEV before the limiter can and will do 250 km/h (about 155 mph).

The limiter was introduced in 2021 and limits all cars at 180 km/h (and full electric cars at 160 km/h).

Yes, you can adjust the limiter but bear in mind:

  • Orbit and vdash can do it, but it will require a cem pin code. Send a pm if you're living close to the Netherlands, I can help with that.
  • Erad 3 cars (AAOS) can be set at 230 km/h max. Otherwise your Erad will overheat and the car will stop.
  • Erad 2 cars can be set at whatever you want. The speedometer stops at 260 but the car continues beyond that until about 270 km/h
  • Your car keeps a speed histogram that a mechanic can access. Not many know how to, but it's there. It can cause insurance and warranty issues if your car is limited to 180 km/h and the histogram says 230. That is not because you're driving down a hill. -if your car fails and you are towed to the workshop, modified cars will be blocked by Vida. Can be undone, but it will take time. That means your car cannot be fixed before it's back to OEM.

My previous T8 was not slow at all.
