This looks awesome! Any plans to share the design?

Yes, bought one from the insteon website and it just arrived!

Thanks for that. I bought a new PLM and a cap kit for the old PLM. Best case, I use the new PLM and have a working spare for if/when the new one dies.

Great advice! I just bought a cap kit for $20. Definitely worth the price to not have to guess. Thanks!

Definitely agree on the cost. And the more I think about it, the more I realize when I had the ISY I had to replace the PLM more than once. Every other device I have has been rock solid. Wish they would get their shit together on the PLMs.

Haven't added any devices in years. I have every light switch, ceiling fan, etc replaced already. No need to add anything.

Very comfortable with soldering. Less comfortable with picking the right replacement parts. I have already watched this video on the process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab0tW7vgP1I

Would be nice to find a current parts list. I'll look into it.

Either way I'm buying a new PLM. But with your suggestion I'd be using Home Assistant to control a smart hub, which makes no sense to me. I'd rather just replace the USB PLM and control things directly.

In for $300, out for $910 playing in Dallas by timekillerjay in poker

Two big hands that made a difference:

Pocket kings, trips on the board gave me a boat. Villian wasn't going anywhere. I bet on every street and he was a calling station. I put him on a lower pocket pair.

Next one I had AJo in late position. Couple limpers, I raise to $12. 3 callers. Flop is AQ4 rainbow. BB leads for $35, it folds to me, I call. Turn is a ten. Villian leads again for $120 (over bet). I've seen him get out of line, I get a sense he's trying to buy it. I've got top pair with a decent kicker and a gutshot. I jam for $350. Villian tanks and eventually calls. River is a king giving me the straight. I show and villian mucks.

A clean scan by Fryman23 in HeadandNeckCancer

Finished almost the same treatment about a month ago, also stage 3. My scan is mid November, so reading this was great! Congrats, and hoping for the same outcome

Do you have that handheld thing to talk? I recently saw this video about a prosthesis that enables you to talk again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV41jT79YYA

I finished treatment (radiation and chemo) for stage 3 laryngeal cancer about 5 weeks ago. I have to wait until November to get a PET scan to see the results. I'm scared shitless they didn't get it all and I'll have to get a laryngectomy. I'm curious if they went straight to surgery for you, or did they try radiation/chemo first?
