Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
Hmm yeah you’re right, doesn’t show a cloud dependency. However, I found it still very slow.
I have it standing up right and it can control the heat pump fine which is above it. It could also control the TV which was on the same height about 4 meters away (as long as nobody was in between). But I do experience that sometimes the heat pump doesn’t pick it up, e.g. in my morning automation to turn it on, I’m just setting it twice. It’s rare though, it works 97% of the time.
That makes sense with the heatpump. I suspect the layout inside it means line of sight isn’t very good at the same level or below it. I’m trying to control something where the receiver is only around 60cm from the ground. Without pointing the top to it it was pretty inconsistent and the script that runs would often miss commands
