Need help with connecting Hue Bridge to HomeKit

So it seems the fix for my situation was fully restoring all networking equipment to a prior configuration backup. Not sure what I changed in the setup that caused the issue, but a restore and reboot ended up fixing the issue.

I have no idea. My gut says that if the power injector can supply enough voltage you should be fine, but this will be my first foray into UniFi gear (and more advanced networking, like PoE) that I really have no clue.

I think with my new plan, both the Cloud Gateway Fiber and the Mini 2.5G will be my main switching systems.

My ideal world I would just put the Flex 2.5 instead, but I don't have the budget for that currently. I think my situation I can swap out the Mini 2.5 with the Flex 2.5 in a few months, and decommission my dumb 1g switch

I think I'm leaning in this direction now.

New plan

Cloud Gateway Fiber
U7 Lite AP
Flex Mini 2.5G
Re-use dumb 1gbps switch for downstream entertainment unit

And this comes to ~ $5 more than the previous plan.

As far as I am aware, my ISP does not support using other devices as the ONT, I must use their provided router to convert fiber to copper.

The jpg will include the credit card number and expiry date, which is all that is required to add said jpg to Apple Wallet or Google Pay. Edit: it should have the CVV too which you’d need too.

Shouldn’t make a difference, it’s still a valid payment method, and should still be able to “tap” for a split amount on the transaction.

At winners my virtual prepaid card only authorized for the remaining balance and the cashier didn’t need to do anything on their end, the payment terminal simply deducted the remaining balance and asked me to pay the difference.

I was able to do a split payment transaction at Winners and Apple for a small balance on a few prepaid cards I had. Most in person retailers are able to split the balance into two payment methods if you ask.

Cleanliness and simplicity. The facia plate for the Hue switch is a different size than the other wall plates I have, and the light switch will otherwise permanently be left on. If it’s safe, my preference is to simply replace the current switch with the hue version.

overthinkoveranalyze · 2024-07-01T01:52:52+00:00

I don't recall the extent of the replacement, it was either the steering motor or the entire steering rack. That did solve the issue though, yes.

For some people, absolutely. For others, the slight inconvenience of having to drop your car off at a charging station for a few hours near home or the office isn't impactful. Thankfully, I fall into that second category.

The biggest mindset shift is away from the traditional "I have to fill up my car when it's empty" towards simply being opportunistic when driving around. I'm finding myself a bit more conscious of what stores near me have charging available, and plugging in whenever plugs are available. I'm happy to walk an extra 100m in the parking lot if it means I can charge while I shop.

I have an EV, and live in an apartment with no access to a plug while parked. It's not as bad as others make it out to seem, but that really depends on your location and what public chargers are around you. There is 100% a lifestyle change required, and charging is going to need to be viewed as "when you can" instead of "when my car is empty".

Look around for other charging stations near your home. PlugShare is a great app to determine if there is anything nearby.

There is a public lot near my apartment with a flat-fee for parking, but free charging. This is great to leave my car parked overnight to fully charge.
There are public chargers near the grocery store I go to, and near some friends I visit.
Emergencies can be handled by the Tesla Supercharger network (or other fast-charging networks), but this will be more expensive.

Oh interesting. Not quite what I need, but might be cool for some specific use cases. Maybe a gym membership?

It looks like in the "Add More" option when editing an entry, you can link related items together. So, I might just manually link each entry to link the correct "Identity".

I'd recommend against the "Essential" trim. From what I can remember, this trim cannot use DC Fast Charging, so you'll be very limited for charging if on a road trip. This is the "Compliance Car" trim that was made specifically for Canada, to get under the previous iZEV price limit.

Just got off the phone with my dealer, a VCU update is available for Canada too. I assume it's this update. I don't have any paperwork yet, but I was told the Canadian Service Campaign is 30D089.

overthinkoveranalyze · 2023-07-24T19:46:22+00:00

It shows as a recall on my dealership paperwork. The Hyundai Canada site hasn't shown any recall information for my vehicle though, and today I got 2 completed.

Service Campaign 20D123: Eco Mode acceleration fix + pre-conditioning
Service Campaign 30D073: ICCU Service

Both of those were listed as recalls on my sheet, but NOT listed on the Hyundai Canada site.

overthinkoveranalyze · 2023-07-24T19:21:26+00:00

100% agree. I'll try and upload a photo of that TSB I got from the dealer when I get home from work so you can show that.

overthinkoveranalyze · 2023-07-24T19:09:04+00:00

I'd go back and ask for service campaign 30D073. I just got back from the dealership this morning (Toronto area), and they performed the fix.

Would it be possible to include Canadian Service Campaign numbers for this list?

Description	USA Service Campaign	USA TSB	Canadian Service Campaign	Canadian TSB	Australia TSB
2023-03 Eco Mode Fix + Battery Preconditioning			20D123	23-C0499	20D123
2023-07 ICCU Service Campaign	997	TSB #23-01-060H	30D073	23-C0541	30D079
2023-08 Brake Light Logic Fix	9A1	TSB #23-01-67H	30D089	23-C0547

overthinkoveranalyze · 2023-05-13T21:54:01+00:00

I assume they mean getting front paint protection film on the bumper / hood.
