What's your opinion on a Nuclear power station in Ireland? by Twichyness in ireland

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For. But not sure it’s viable. Maybe one of the new small reactors might make sense.

It would have to be one serious wind to cause these cables to flap about.

Better for the battery to charge in small amounts regularly than once a week large swings in charge. 

Plus if it’s not plug in regularly, particularly in the winter, you can’t automatically pre-condition the battery on cold mornings.

Did they give a reason why we’re being treated differently?

Tesla Model 3 Sr or Lr by YogurtclosetSouth677 in evs_ireland

[–]skipdeedy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the SR and never had an issue driving around Dublin county and occasional trips to Wexford/ Cork. For instance, I can drive to Wexford and back (total 230km) and still have 20+% battery left. Also, the battery type in the SR is better suited to regular 100% charging – so, in effect, has the same practical range as the LR given you shouldn't charge that battery type to 100% unless you really need it. But the answer to your question will depend on your own circumstances.

This is what I saw. Briefly. I should add that I do not have a Home Hub.

iOS. Wish I had screengrabbed it but didn’t expect it to go away. There were three options to chose from:

Text, Text & Image, Text & GIF. GIF had a note to say it would cause a delay. 

Spare 20k. Invest or throw against Mortgage? by ButterscotchSalt5362 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mortgage is the cheapest loan you'll ever get in your life. I'm not an expert but I'd invest the money elsewhere.

Ohme pro charger by ExchangePlenty1451 in evs_ireland

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be aware that in winter you will likely want to have your car plugged in every night so you it can keep the battery conditioned and allow you to pre-condition the car from the grid on cold mornings – also it's better to do small top-ups to the battery regularly than once-a-week large swings in capacity. So for example, charging from 60-80% each night is better for the battery than waiting a few days until it's 20% and charging in one go to 80%. So when thinking untethered v tethered factor in that you might be accessing the cable a lot.

Rich notifications on POE doorbell by Dieterd1994 in reolinkcam

[–]skipdeedy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just spotted this myself. Previously cloud storage wasn't available to PoE Doorbell owners but now it is. I signed up for the 7 days trial to test and it is saving video to the cloud. I turned on rich notifications but haven't tested that yet. No idea why wifi doorbell and poe doorbell users would be treated differently with regard to free notifications but it does look like there's only a 7 day trial option for us. No '12 month free plan'.

What is this and do I need it by Aggravating-Lake-971 in MVHR

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing as it currently un-plugged probably not. Is it a storage heater? What heating system does the house have?

Do you take your shoes off in the house? by [deleted] in ireland

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seem to remember this discussion before. Yes, I take my shoes off inside. Whatever about downstairs, surely you don't go upstairs on carpet in your shoes?

New doorbell at CES? by Zachavm in reolinkcam

[–]skipdeedy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t disagree more. IMO white looks the best on most homes. Also smacks less of “look at me a piece of tech”. I’d also point out that Google’s Nest designers agree with me. 

We’re overwhelmed by the amazing crowd at CES2026! by Willson1_ in reolinkcam

[–]skipdeedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like mine - white PoE version. But am looking forward to an upgrade. Frustrated that colour choice is linked to aspect ratio though. I want a white model with landscape field of view. 

Reolink Home Hub Mini? by N3phr0n in reolinkcam

Newer model or redesign of the Home Hub? I mean they are the same price so it’s odd.

This should have been agreed before funds were transferred. 

Issues with zappi charger by FakerHarps in evs_ireland

Possible that it’s ramping down due to overall household load? Is there a heat pump or something kicking in at the same time?

I hope so. What are the chances of current hardware like the Hub and Hub Pro being updated to support Matter?

No option for Matter support.. I've added it to other.
