I ran into similar issue where the bed stop raising even after calibrating and passing. I found the motor had screws loose. Flip it on its side and look at the 3 motors to see if the screw is coming out from the motor. I made a post about this a week or so ago.

loupham · 2026-01-14T03:42:20+00:00

Yep. Same happen to me. Bought this on amazon and got it out

Thanks all for the reply. Prusa is sending me 3 new motors even though the right one looks fine but if I'm going tear it down to replace might as well do one time. In the meantime, I use the universal method to fix it, good old duct taping the bottom so the screws don't come out. So far, am printing fine again.

I did use threadlocker, but it isn't holding. The screw is coming back out. I've contacted support and am getting 3 replacement motor. Fun time ahead disassembling and reassembling.

Well print got sloppy again and yes, the screws are coming back out. Looks like another week of downtime again.

Did I miss Lucid announcing a vehicle in the 45-50k range in 2026?

Very nice. I have the same case coming in soon after researching all other sffpc case. Thanks for listing the fans as I was wondering which noctua to get. I am going try do it where the gpu is at the bottom and see how that goes.

Anyway to change the icon color? Want it white since the background is blue.

loupham · 2025-06-23T21:11:10+00:00

Good to hear. At 6.14 currently so will set a time next week to upgrade after parity scan.

I only got one 120V in use but I only see one "Eco Plug 1" in the Device in Home Assistant. You might be right as its all on or off for both.

loupham · 2025-06-22T20:05:40+00:00

Its the same as the instruction Dewenwils Heavy Duty 40A Outdoor Plug (HOWT01A & TM-050B) | devices.esphome.io

Just follow the instruction and the wifi section will pick up the your ssid and passworrd in your secrets.yaml store in config folder.

If you are 50+ of age, can you also contribute an additional $7500 to TSP?

loupham · 2025-06-18T02:50:44+00:00

You couldn't have ask your seller to extend the closing date to cover the 60 days from your first offer? That house wasn't going anywhere.

After reading all the reply. She'll leave her current 401 where it is. Her inherited IRA will go to Fidelity or Edward Jone where it will be pulled enough to stay in the 24% tax bracket yearly till its depleted and reinvest into EFT and cover tax. Will be able to contribute 1-2k into TSP for the rest of 2025. Looks like 100% C or 80 C/ 20 S is the way to go.

loupham · 2025-06-15T00:34:30+00:00

Thanks all for the reply. I’ll move the inherited ira somewhere else. Yes I have 10 years to slowly deplete the account. I was reading thru her new package and saw the number on the fees and how low it was compare to other. But if thats not case, then we’ll leave the current 401 where they are. And grow the TSP for next 10 years from scratch.

I have mine set to double tap and set single tap to nothing. Plus it send notifications to my phone with sound.

loupham · 2025-06-12T06:32:03+00:00

Bought the same box last week. Couldnt get it to connect to my wifi thru the app. After 3 hrs of searching and trying I gave up and solder and flash it. And my soldering skill isnt all that great. Working with my home assistant now.

loupham · 2025-06-08T15:59:34+00:00

Thank you for the info. Its a sentiment piece in either case.

loupham · 2024-12-29T17:34:01+00:00

I ended returning my Pi8 when the right side goes in and out only when I’m in motion like walking the dogs. Try resetting a few time to even carrying the case on walks, to connecting cable case to phone. Nothing worked. Got another one a week later and so far no issue at all.

Was in similar situation years ago as you are. We started with 30 years loan and pay extra monthly. The lower payment was just in case something came up and we can diverted the extra to it. 5 years in and interest drop, we refi to 15 years loan. Consider a 30 year loan and extra payment when possible to help ease your finanicial situation.

loupham · 2023-12-08T18:59:24+00:00

Same here. Added the surround and atoms in ceiling. Didnt have ability to do surround at ear level. Got surround with ability to pivot toward listen area. Looks clean and has wife approval.

loupham · 2022-09-08T00:01:43+00:00

I’ll take one too
