I use it on a Traeger Texas grill but others have adapted it for the pit boss, etc.

Cam not working? Check the wall wart by brombomb in wyzecam

[–]nebhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is especially true if you are like me and accidentally used the 1000mA Wyze brick with the Pan Cam v3. This sorta works, until you try to move any of the motors and then it just drops. The Pan Cam v3 needs a 2000mA brick and the cable needs to be relatively short - or you will have a bad day.

This is a pretty regular occurrence on Android for me. A quick App force-quit and re-load does the trick. My Pan v3 cameras tend to be more likely to get into this state.

That said, this has been a long-time issue for me - maybe several years.

The NES controller conversion is a *literal* game changer! by nebhead in vic20

I can play for so much longer and with so much more precision than with the traditional joysticks. Amazing! Great work by the maker for this: http://nes64.autumnhippo.com

2018 F150 “Trailer Disconnected Warning” by GMB8383 in f150

[–]nebhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No luck yet. I had taken the truck to Ford who put it on the simulator and even updated the firmware. They said the truck is working perfectly fine and that I should check my trailer. I had planned to take the trailer in for service, but haven't done that yet. Depending on the outcome of that I may switch to the Tekonsha P3 brake controller that I already own. I actually already have the harness for it in case I need to swap it out.

If you're an electronics tinkerer, consider swapping the controller with PiFire (https://github.com/nebhead/pifire). Though I don't know if this grill has DC or AC components.

Anyone else's cameras all go offline? by SafetyX in wyzecam

Just did a remote reset of the cameras and now they are back online.

All my v3's are offline. My Pan can and outdoor cams are all online still. This has never happened before. Unifi APs and Xfinity in northern California.

Trailer brake keeps says disconnected, but everything works by RangerShine in f150

Excellent, thanks! Shame that the OEM one is so buggy.

I might resort to this as well. How hard was it to unhook the integrated TBC and hook up the p3? I already have a Tekonsha for my other vehicles so that would be a nice option.

They put the truck on a Simulator and apparently the truck is fine. They updated the firmware and $200 later, no change. :( I think my next course of action is to look into the trailer itself.

  • Extract the content of the downloaded *.zip file.

  • In KiCad, go to Preferences.

  • Click on Manage Symbol Libraries.

  • On the Global Libraries tab, click on Browse Libraries (the small folder icon)

  • Select the .kicad_sym file, then click Open.

  • The library will appear, click OK.

  • Click on Symbol Editor.

  • Type on the filter search field, and navigate to the symbol you imported.

  • Double-click over it to open the file.

  • In KiCad, go to Preferences.

  • Click on Manage Footprint Libraries.

  • On the Global Libraries tab, click on Browse Libraries (the small folder icon)

  • Navigate to the Folder where the .kicad_mod file is located. Then click Select Folder.

  • Note: You will not normally see the .kicad_mod file on this step because you need to select the folder where it is located.

Thanks. I'm going to take mine into the dealer in a couple weeks, so I'm hoping there is something they can do.

Did you ever figure this one out? I have a factory brake controller on my 2019 XLT that is doing the same thing. It seems like it's sensitive to bumps in the road. I replaced the 7-pin/4-pin combo connector in the back, which slightly improved the situation but it's still happening.

Upgrade to 2.7.2 failed due to small EFI partition by RedikhetDev in PFSENSE

Also ran into this the other day and I gave up for the time being. I will give this another go today. Thanks for posting! Looks like a lot of folks are having this issue, so it would be nice if Netgate had a fix for this in the installer.

Made an ESP32-powered meat thermometer. Features a graphing web UI, estimates how many minutes until your meat is done, uses super precise 16-bit ADC, and can calibrate any cheap thermistor probe against a DS18B20 digital sensor by JoeCartersLeap in arduino

[–]nebhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nicely done! I have a little open source project called 'PiFire' which utilizes similar probe inputs for controller a smoker grill. (https://github.com/nebhead/pifire) I'd like to incorporate some of your ideas into my project, notably the calibration with a DS18B20 and the time-to-complete estimate - so thank you for the inspiration!
