  1. I was thinking this also . But then I drank some 🍷and thought (expletive deleted) it
  2. Interfaces to home assistant ? What does it generate on activation ??? Concept sounds good …. reviews seem not good . A battery I change once a year or less is fine . My problem is WiFi and zigbee at this point is poor / shite
  3. I’ve got an ip camera that can see it - too many false triggers as I walk past it to enter my abode
  4. Still got to run 20m of cable . I’m a lazy (expletive deleted) ; that’s all under my decking
  5. Bast’s - I knew it would be like that
  6. Not for sale to Germany apparently… why ? Not a musk nazi device is it ? 😆
  7. Needs to be a (expletive deleted)ing big parcel to move 10kg of meat
  8. To avoid the build I create a new ‘fun’ project …. The post box is a standalone unit about 6m from the house . Want to detect when it’s opened presumably by postie to delivery parcel . It does have a letter slot - but I could block that up . First thought was a Shelly / zigbee battery door sensor . Works sometimes . Range is the issue … Also no mains power at the postbox . So ! , maybe a Shelly relay mains powered but it would need mains which is around 20m away and then long cable to some reed sensor type magnetic switch in the postbox . Seems like a lot of work to work out if a letters been posted ! A good / bad plan ? ; other suggestions??
  9. I did think of a pipe heater but thought it was overkill for ( as you say ) maybe a few times a year . I’ll just pour hot water over the casing if I need too - possibly next winter 😊
  10. Are you suggesting just cutting the small non insulated end of the white pipe off ? I.e easiest option ?
  11. Not a problem for me . The pipe there is over half a meter above ‘my’ ground . As an underground dwelling there’s a massive void down the entire side of the building . So drainage a non issue . TBH I like it visible . I did consider taking it further vertically . This way I can see water coming out or potentially freezing .
  12. What’s the problem? , is the door not level ?
  13. Yes , and he did the pipework
  14. Don’t like Tuya sending all my data to the Chinese new world order . Tried the msr2 . Was pretty good - but not good enough for me !
  15. Well my friend ! You can just see it in one of the earlier photos that the trunking is straight vertically and horizontally but the actual overflow pipe is slightly on an angle vertically ; meaning that final horizontal part of the pipe has a fall ….
  16. Yes . Together we will conquer check-a-trade
  17. I know
  18. File upload limit needs increasing
  19. All done like a “ checkatrade” pro ! Might foam the end around the pipe for peace of find
  20. Car people - just lease
  21. He said the same thing to me followed by “ Silly (expletive deleted) just board over it ffs “
