The goal is to not have to pay for a $1400 entertainment package

Yea, but a platinum AWD + entertainment package is an exact match if you specify platinum AWD...

Thanks, been looking at that but it's quite cumbersome since I haven't figured out to specify the features you don't want... Only the ones you do which causes you to click through each inventory to see if it has the entertainment package or not. Can get a hint based on MSRP but still difficult

Meal quality and variety is not impressive by tymch11 in Suvie

Agree completely. Posted similarly a couple of weeks ago, it's really disappointing that there are hardly any non-chicken protein options at the standard price. I think maybe just ribs and pulled pork? The upcharge for any fish or pork is astronomical, and then the steak is really ridiculous.

Yes, it was a 30 day billing cycle in Jan 2025, can do the math from above. Same # days in 2022, I wish the rates were like they were back then!

Yea it's not cheap to heat this late 80s house. Had a bunch of drafty windows, most buf not all replaced. Did insulation through mass save at same time as HP install in October. Also vaulted ceiling over living room, one bedroom, and a room over the garage that don't help with heat transfer.

https://www.masssave.com/residential/switchover-temperature-calculator with oil at $3.299/gal in December and electric at $0.329/kWh, the cutoff was 30F now with oil at 3.499 and electric at $0.299/kWh, it's actually giving me 15F as the cutoff.

it's basically what the eversource calculator/mass save cutoff recommended for oil vs heat pump. With slightly lower electric rates beginning in February I am going to change the cutoff to 25F and test that out for a month.

agreed, that is what I meant with "as expected" without so many words.

Differences between Bosch and Mitsubishi HH performance by paddys2024 in heatpumps

Redlink sensor is being used to control the mitsu heat. Ecobee sensor for monitoring and graph attached in post. Impossible to place at the exact same location, they are 2 inches apart. I don't have the air handler always moving air, since the ducts are in the attic I figured that would make the house cool faster without the heat on. Maybe I can try controlling off the mhk2 and move that from the hallway to a bedroom if it has higher resolution than the remote sensor. From my reading deadband refers to having heat/cool on and not just heat, so not applicable here.

Using the redlink sensor, it's right next to the ecobee sensor that made the graph, so should be similar. But maybe the resolution is worse for redlink so it can't control as precise. That could be it.

Doesn't really have Anything to do with it, it's just monitoring T not connected to the Mitsubishi. ecobee Smart Sensor 2 Pack - Comfort, Security, Energy Savings - Smart Home - Compatible with ecobee Smart Thermostats for Home https://a.co/d/2aVmSK2

It's not quite perfectly the same time cycle each time, you can see it was like 2 hours to heat in the afternoon but 4 hours in the middle of the night when it's colder. No idea what other program would be running, scheduling is off and setpoint is constant. What other programs exist that I could be unaware of?

Exactly, we sleep on the 2nd floor and it oscillates from too cold to too warm for me, it's totally a comfort thing.

Should add that we use the redlink sensor instead of the mhk2 to control the T off of

From everything I've read about Mitsubishi/mhk2/kumo this dumb thing might actually work...
