Oh damn, thought that 218 W max was for the 98" as OP asked about the 98" power consumption! I've never understood why we went back to…

Wow, my 2016 78" Samsung KU7500 consistently uses 270w. Energy efficiency has certainly come a long way over the last decade.

Get a really nice chair, when you do a few days in your usual chair you really feel it in your back (unless of course you have something…

The gap between OLED and decent mini LED TV's has closed considerably over the past decade, no they aren't equal but they're a lot closer…

No intentions to use it, was wondering if this is somehow different from the rest. I noticed OP mentions car charging as a use which had me…

Yeah I manually control via my car's app during the day when solar output is low, no intentions to use this but was wondering if it may…

How is the build of these? I'd like a smart plug for automating my EV charging but everything I've come across looks more like a fire…

42" plasmas were ~30k on release, and that was in late 90's money.

Ah yes, wise words from a wise man.

Depends if you have "Output port memory" activated in the "Input and output" settings of the app. When activated it returns to the last…

I was thinking more along the lines of EcoFlow and Bluetti, this looks like the design of the two brands merged into one!

Not at all, they're a leader in chip production, they're so far in front of everything else out there. The world relies on companies like…

This deal for starters.

I've had this twice now, once with the burger and the second time was yesterday with the 10 for $10. The first time was only three pieces…

It's pretty decent for heat, it will leave you warm afterwards. I think I might have a higher than average tolerance for heat, I scooped up…

Out of curiosity what concerns you about HA's privacy?

Hadn't heard of Aferiy until now, took a quick look... their designs are certainly "inspired" ever so slightly by one or two brands which…

Ok price per Wh but noticed a couple of things: - low cycle count, LiFePO4 is 3000+ cycles - no mention of UPS capabilities so might be too…

I bought the M8 in the previous deal and use it for an HA dashboard, fairly basic one but runs fine full screen.

With perfect vision you need to be sitting closer than 1.8 metres from a 98" TV to have any benefit whatsoever over 4k, it's completely…

Absolutely no need whatsoever for 8K if you read up on it and understand the capabilities of the human eye.

Sorry, I was referring to home assistant support.

The EcoFlow River 3 does this over a wifi or bluetooth connection so I'll probably be heading that way but I'm still hunting around for…

This is a really nice price for the capacity, unfortunately I don't see any mention of wifi. I'm wanting to use a power station with home…

Is this able to hook in with Home Assistant to control charging/discharging?

A million IoT sensors, mainly door/window sensors which I also want to use for things like detecting when mail is delivered. I say want…

Thanks OP, received mine earlier this week so have had some time to mess around now. Certainly nothing special about it but I've bought it…

Would be good if they branded them by year like with their phones.

So I guess the enhancement is you can now look forward to your business seat on a Jetstar flight being cancelled rather than your economy…

I'd say V2H (vehicle to home), plugging an EV into your house and using its battery as the power supply. Huge in relative comparison to a…
