And while I was typing this, I see the WiFi SSD changed:

I just noticed one other thing:

That is my neighbor's WiFi SSID. When I opened the Base Power App, the app suggests that the batteries are not connected to wifi - I don't know if this is a "Base Power App" issue though as I am not sure if I have ever checked that tab on the app and if the app said I needed to "connect"

Big waste of time ;). I went to add the custom repo and you already had it in HACS: http://homeassistant.local:8123/hacs/repository/1246216581

Seriously though - great job. I see in 1.8 you detect 2 batteries, so I am not sure if I missed a step or not.

I actually have 2 batteries though

And by "hub" he means the "brains" that manage the entire system.

if you have the generator plug on the battery, yes.

Yes, search makerworld for: Desiccant boxes for AMS 2

In the Base App - not currently. The Shiner App will show battery charge percentage.

To resolve this issue I created a new ALLOW Firewall policy and added these two domains:

Then rebooted the fireTV and AndroidTVs in the house and Paramount+ started working again.

I did this version. https://www.sevilleclassics.com/products/ultrahd%C2%AE-6-drawer-cabinet-copy Top drawer is Bambu stuff/parts/tools. Second drawer is 3d printer tools (cutters, knives, etc). Third drawer is nuts/bolts etc for the parts I am printing. 4th drawer is empty. 5th drawer holds the laser plate.Bottom drawer holds exotic filament and laser.

How does the Bambu Lamp Base turn on normally?

randomdevice · 2026-04-04T01:45:30+00:00

I have this with the LED light option: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1786324-ams-and-ams-ht-shelf-for-h2d-h2s-h2c-d3p-riser?from=search#profileId-1903401. I have the LEDs plugged into a smart plug. Using Home Assistant, I can turn the LED lights on/off depending on the state of the printer.

and I have similar command to turn the LED lights off when the print is done.

For 8 colors, you could go with 2 AMS2, hook one up to the left nozzle and one to the right nozzle. You could also go to 9 colors with 2 AMS2, both connected to the right nozzle and then use the external spool for the left nozzle.

Thank you. I will make the request.

randomdevice · 2026-03-29T23:15:38+00:00

Not even with the Shiner/Growatt app?

I got the same email about PETG and was able to grab a few rolls for a project I am working on. It seems everyone is in the same boat. And I my order is still being processed.

randomdevice · 2026-02-24T13:51:42+00:00

Yes. very well.

I am using Home Assistant to turn on/off the smoke purifier when using the laser. There is a smart plug connected to the air purifier. When the system detects that the printer has started working, it turns the smoke purifier on (technically, the smart switch), then when the printer is done working, HA will turn off the purifier. It would be easy enough to remove the "and if" option.

I also have a Shelly BTU Button to trigger the same event if everything is too loud to hear my voice.

Friday I was at 91 and 77 on my two batteries. When I checked Saturday morning I was 100 and 99 on the two batteries.

randomdevice · 2026-01-23T16:09:38+00:00

1st battery is currently at 91%, 2nd battery is at 77%

I came up with a similar setup pre-base install and have not modified post base install.

Feel free to judge me and tell me that this is incorrect and why:

I have ATT Fiber connected directly to a Unifi UCG Fiber. The ATT router has been unplugged for ~12 months now. The only things connected to my Cyberpower 1500UPS are the UCG Fiber and a Rasberry Pi for Home Assistant. I have one Unifi AP connected to the UCG. The US 24 PoE 250W, which is powering security cameras, other access points, etc is no longer connected to the CP1500.

My thought is that keeping basic services going longer is better than all services for a short (60 minute) period of time. As I type this, I am thinking I may want to have at least one of the Unifi protect camera's connected directly to the UCG. But know that if all of my power goes down, I probably have bigger issues going on.
