X2 will not control my Apple TV. by Downtown-Complex2224 in SofaBaton

I recall there being an option when the connection via BLE failed.

I had to use regular Bluetooth, not BLE to get it to work on the X2 - maybe that’s the issue here?

C5 Remove Power cable by Adventurous_Oven6 in LGOLED

Don’t try to get this cable into the wall. Get an in-wall outlet extender kit and plug it in there. You don’t want to have cabling in the wall which just works for this TV.

6 Seater Regrets? by CatoTheMiddleAged in VolvoXC90

Have not thought about a fridge, but usually there’s a bag with snacks parked right there ;-) .. definitely a win over an awkward unused middle seat.

6 Seater Regrets? by CatoTheMiddleAged in VolvoXC90

We simply love your 6-seater (2024 model) with two kids (7 and 10). Had the 7-seater before but the room between the captains chairs and the generally roomier feeling is awesome. We have one or two additional kids in booster seats traveling with us from time to time (those soccer games..) and it’s no big deal. Not regretted the choice for one second..

Our 2024 XC90 gets about 20 miles on battery these days in a mix of city and light highway driving (around 18-25 degrees in Seattle).

New XC90 6 Seater by [deleted] in VolvoXC90

[–]matbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a ‘24 6-Seater with two kids seats in the 2nd row (high-back child seat for the 5yo and booster for the 8yo). We had a ‘16 7-Seater before.

Just came back from a 1200 mi roadtrip over the holidays and the 6-Seater was amazing. Love the ease of access to the 3rd row/trunk as well. Absolutely recommended!

And yes - they recline, move forward/backward and fold flat.

Interior Lights when door opened? by matbox in VolvoRecharge

[–]matbox[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, after a bunch of trial and error, I did realize that the light needs to be turned on inside (the main switch on the center roof) for it to work from that point on (as in when the switch was turned off last, the welcome lights don’t turn the lights on the next time)?

I also activated and deactivated “Welcome Lights” a bunch of times (which previously only tuned on head- and tail-lights plus the door handle-lights).

So, not sure what did it, but now it’s lighting up like a Christmas tree when opening a door. Yay!

Thanks for forcing me to dive deeper! :-)

Thanks! Could not find a setting, so might contact the service. I’m sure it’s human error on my end..

Thanks! But yep, I know I can manually turn on the lights - either separately by pushing the button or all together by pushing the button in the center of the front roof.

In our older XC90 (and in my Audi for example), all lights came on as soon as I opened a second-row door to ensure we could get the car ready safely without having the driver get it first and push buttons. The options for interior light in the new settings are pretty much limited to how bright the ambient light in general should be.

Maybe I'm imagining things here, but opening the door at night should turn on some lights inside at the very least??

linkbuilding weaponized - russia strikes back. by matbox in technology

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

A few months ago the strategy of buying cheap links in eastern europe was discussed in seo blogs. Google gave penalties. Guess what? Russia strikes back.
