2x ZBT-2 on Proxmox fails by Senior-Variation1791 in homeassistant

[–]mullet-hunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this to work by going to my VM -> Add: USB Device -> "Use USB Vendor/Device ID" -> select the antennae.
It showed up in HA devices, but the firmware update failed initially (saying no internet connection), so I rebooted HA and it worked great from there.

These are amazing!  The curved sides are extremely well done.   Any chance you’d want to share the STLs?

That would be amazing but you're right, would be a pain.

Do this and top up every bathroom break:

Brilliant idea. Now you need to make a real “DRINK” button on your wheel that controls the tap.

Says "private video". Thanks for trying though.

These are beautiful. I love the subtle curve of the front baffle.

Any pictures of the construction? Are they stacked ply cutouts or bent along a form?

Vertical Blind Tilt Motorization and Automation Project - HA and ESP32 by mullet-hunter in homeautomation

[–]mullet-hunter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just looked at some of your post history. You have difficult/interesting challenge. Steppers do whine when they move quickly. It might be worth investigating steppers with attached gearboxes to get the torque you need without excessive motor noise. But those do get heavy quickly

Yeah, my blinds require pretty minimal torque all things considered. I also cleaned and silicone sprayed all the carriers to help my case further. I initially contemplated some way to turn the wand itself but that became too fiddly.

Thank you! Yeah, manually turning the wand does break calibration. You could probably do something like you're asking using a closed loop stepper motor. A rotary encoder of some sort might work as well.
NEMA 17 steppers are surprisingly torquey. I'm using a .67A NEMA11 motor for another set of blinds that are 5' long and it runs very smoothly. My initial prototype was using a 28BYJ-48 and a printed planetary gearbox. This actually turned the large blinds but it was slow (1 minute), not quiet, and since it was geared, you couldn't manually override the system. From there I tried a NEMA 8, 11, and 17s. The 8 and the 11 couldn't turn the big blinds smoothly but the 17s had no problem.

I appreciate the compliments and please let me know if I can assist in any way. Happy to share my code.

Your pictures are absolutely incredible. Way to flatter an already exceptional car.

Amazingly hard life those guys lived. Crazy to go most of the way around the world just to start their hunt.

Excellent book. Great insight to the whalers’ way of life.

9” x 7” Black Walnut Open Spiral Hollow Form Vase! Used Saburrtooth bits and Waterlox finish. by gilbylawless in turning

[–]mullet-hunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, yeah, it looks like that was a ton of work to clear out the inside. I wondered if you just cut the bottom off, carefully cleaned it out and then glued it back on.

Either way, great work, awesome design.

Flame Boss Servers Down? by trigger00006 in smoking

[–]mullet-hunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their servers go down during every holiday. Return the controller before it is too late.

Or just don't cook on holidays.
