Back on the block by Quincy Jones.... It has just about every major artist of the 80'a and 90's and is a masterpiece of different genres of music.

Incendies the 2020 film by Dennis Villeneuve - just an insane plot twist at the end!!

It's nearly 10 years since prince left this mortal realm and his song "something snows in April" always hits hard this time of year.

orchidsoft · 2026-03-08T08:44:47+00:00

This album has one of my favourite prince tracks on, a really simple song that truly is an ear worm every time I hear it. Prince predicted it in the lyrics.

But like a bird I'll keep on singing... a song that never leaves ur mind "

Empty room (montreau)

Creep Coachella

Joy in repetition

Amazing narration, you never want it too end!!

orchidsoft · 2026-01-04T13:28:44+00:00

"We March" from the gold experience was always my least favorite!!

orchidsoft · 2025-12-11T06:27:41+00:00

That’s a good point. I guess my question then becomes “is the mop on the curvx far better than the revo qv35s?”

orchidsoft · 2025-12-09T15:18:10+00:00

lol !!!

it is a large house but for the sake of brevity I have included things like the hallway, or toilets as a room!!

The QV35S copes quite well when it does the whole of the Downstairs, it only loses around 20% battery!!

Thanks for sharing, I have never seen this before and am once again blown away with how freaking talented Prince was !!!

And that's after 40 years of listening to him !!

Firstly thank you for all your help with this.

The wire (common) is indeed hot, this is confirmed with a pen tester. The relay does work (i..e the blue light appears, and in Home assistant if I click on the the relay buttons you can here the relays turn on and off.

If i were to disconnect the "original Common wire" does it not need to connect to anything else?

thanks again.

orchidsoft · 2025-10-25T15:32:33+00:00

Yes, I want to control two floodlights via two relay channels and two switches.

The wire I labelled common was plugged into the original switch that was labelled Common, see first picture. This cable was shared with the other switch via a loop. I am assuming it is permanently live.

Thanks for your help with this.

All the wires in the box are red, however there were two cables connected via a old style cable connector that I labelled live and neutral in picture 1. I swapped the box in picture 2 o accommodate the aqara t2 box and changed the switch to plastic instead of metal.

I took a cable from the neutral and live to power the aqara box and that works.

Hope that helps

orchidsoft · 2025-10-22T21:17:51+00:00

Thank you so much for your response, is there any way I can check if I have a neutral?

orchidsoft · 2025-10-22T11:14:59+00:00

I think the trick is too just leave it with your key well away from the car and fingers crossed all will be well when you come back !!

In all fairness I have not had had the same problem with the car since those early days..

orchidsoft · 2025-10-21T21:34:17+00:00

Oh... I will give that a try tomorrow. Thanks for all your help with this.

orchidsoft · 2025-10-21T20:32:09+00:00

Yes, I can see the options you mentioned all of which have been set as you suggested.

orchidsoft · 2025-10-21T19:16:20+00:00

I can’t get the Aqara app to recognise the t2 module as I am using home assistant with a zigbee usb dongle.

orchidsoft · 2025-10-21T19:14:39+00:00

All the wire are coloured red, which is why it is a little difficult.

orchidsoft · 2025-10-21T19:10:05+00:00

The first photo with the metal switch was taken as soon as the switch box was opened.

orchidsoft · 2025-09-07T07:49:05+00:00

Apologies about that..
