    Doesn’t matter (ha). Buy kit with protocol that works now, set it up in home assistant. Once matter isn’t crap, buy matter devices and add them to home assistant too. I’ve got thousands in z-wave, another chunk in Hue, but that doesn’t preclude a switch once the products are workable. Let’s...

    A thread about parenting

    Ahh, the wife’s parents, the idiocy that never ends. To keep my irritation from being directed at the wife, remind me good approaches towards people you have chosen to not cut out of your life, but who actively disregard your approach towards feeding and parenting your children? Less because I...

    Stop when you need to stop, and let the car charge while you do the actions you stopped for.

    Getting the 3 ton Premium, “up to” 20 SEER Unfortunately the 18SEER 3 ton with 3 ton air handler didn’t meet the energy star reqs so no tax credit, didn’t want to risk only 2 ton air handler. Tradeoff is 18 can go down to 26%, 20 only down to 33%. Edit: I’m excited to ditch the gas furnace.

    Today’s charging musing: Longer term parking. With airport travel, high powered charging isn’t needed. For many trips, 100 watts would be sufficient. The musing question is: Which would be cheaper from a TCO perspective - a bank of L3 chargers used when leaving the lot, or many low powered...

    Yes and no. It’s not like fast charging is so highly demanded within DC proper with the short drives and all the highways surrounding DC have choices. But it could be better, in particular a lot more L2 density in the parking garages. DC real estate is expensive unfortunately.

    More annoying even, there’s TWO SHELL APPS! Edit: if you scan the qr code for the ex volta chargers, they take you to the old shell app. Only after you install that does it tell you there’s a new shell app to go find.

    I’m going to try and have to use a L3 charger next month. Other attempts have failed*. We’ll see! *because destination charging covered it.

    That’s one of the frustrating things about these 2 and 4 bay L3 locations - it’s a pita if one fails and isn’t immediately broadcast to the myriad of systems that route to them. Will matter less when there’s 30 choices nearby, but it is really annoying to pull into a station and have it be...

    But then it is harder to harvest data to sell to marketers! And there’s more friction to using the new charging service across the street. And… Related, got one of the free formerly volta chargers. Shell has changed it and not for the better. Still free, but now the charging needs to be...
