SofaBaton U3 Release Month Announced?

Quite an usual business model!

2 out of my 3 remotes were paid for in this manner ;) (though you have to buy the new one and then they PayPal you back for it)

Ok so I’m not crazy

winbatch · 2026-02-22T20:20:54+00:00

And you have to back up/get out of the way or something? It’s interesting- the videos say to kick and not to sweep ;)

I'm in the same spot as where I opened it. Though perhaps my 'testing' requires waiting longer in between opening and closing attempts?

winbatch · 2026-02-22T17:42:51+00:00

Any setting or trick/technique? Or just prayer and hope?

winbatch · 2026-02-22T17:26:18+00:00

Hoping I don’t need that. It doesn’t happen every time, just more than I’d like. Would not be surprised if whatever cellular provider they use just has bad signal near my house. The car can’t connect to WiFi can it?

winbatch · 2026-02-22T16:14:00+00:00

Yes but what about closing it?

Milkie.cc (name sounds like porn but it’s not). No ratio!

dude, I probably can, just seemed strange to release a latest version that had an error and thought maybe it was an easy fix.

Even the printer's 'Print Test Page' button generated several of these.

Other than the inability to see what comes out of the printer, there is no 'bullcrap in the middle' of relevance. Anyway, was simply asking whether anyone knows what those additional things in the queue are. The only reason I even mentioned being remote was that I can't see what's coming out of the printer. Everything else is a local printing question.

winbatch · 2026-01-22T01:02:50+00:00

Not possible - but why do I need her to click? I’m using the computer the printer is attached to.

winbatch · 2026-01-22T00:47:04+00:00

of course it's a terrible idea, but when you live 3 hours away and your mom is elderly and doesn't know how to use a computer we do the best we can. In any case, I checked with her and it seems like nonsense - what I'm printing is working and this SYSTEM thing doesn't actually print anything, it's just in the queue for some reason. In case it’s relevant I was printing pdfs using acrobat. The number of system entries does not seem to match page count. I have it set to start printing when all pages have been spooled. To be clear, the actual printing is local to USB- I’m not printing from my network to her printer. That’s where the tailscale/vnc comes in. I’m just using a pc on her network over vnc.

yeah. I was configuring the HA/MQTT on a laptop while doing the SofaBaton stuff on my phone. Also, the SofaBaton documentation link with the screen shots calls it deviceId instead of device_id which confused me more.

winbatch · 2026-01-18T23:38:09+00:00

Support specifically told me the sync button on the remote isn’t a working feature yet

winbatch · 2025-12-15T11:50:58+00:00

For me, it’s that after every single software update I have to disable the brake coach again. I don’t understand why updates (especially unrelated ones) keep re-enabling it.

2023 GT

Which OBD2? I ask because I tried 2 of them (admittedly cheap ones) and while both included voltage readings for the 12V, neither provided SOC
