iSmart is a joke, mine doesn't connect even when I'm in the car and it's running. I've raised several official complaints and been brushed off every time: "you must have bad signal" - I've checked and there's good signal for every UK operator "your car must be in deep sleep" - I'd actually used...

Mine wasn't set to anything either... you'd think the dealership would be checking this kinda stuff during a service, right?

I hope to God the Bluetooth issue is fixed, it' worse than Clippy from the 90's

Too late, already had one while I was in Portugal at the weekend 🤣 I wasn't charging the car though. Home Assistant, routers and switches etc. all have UPS so no problems there but, reinitialising the RCD could prove a faff if it happens while I'm charging. Mind, all the burglar alarms in the...

BS1363-2 socket installed ✅ 25m Tough Lead extension with in-line RCD plugged in ✅ Movement sensor installed into Tough Lead enclosure ✅ Fingerbot stuck to new BS1363-2 socket ✅ Home Assistant Automation created to disconnect power on suspected foul play ✅ Job done :D

It was being used inside. Inside the garage 😂 It's a concrete walled and wooden door'ed outbuilding. Defo, it's got a flippin hole in it. Yeah, but it probably saved my socket's life and prevented a fire too, so every cloud and all 😁 So a BS1363-2 socket and a new Tough Leads cable then, check ✅

No, the plastic cover had been pushed off by the expansion of the fuse.

Maybe I should just replace it with one of these purpose built cables instead. I've got the money and you can't exactly put a price on safety. The mains end socket (no charging, still pristine white) is in a garage with it's own consumer unit so I doubt it'd burn the house down if I just...

It wasn't granny's plug thank god. It was an industrial extension cable approx. 25m long to a weather proof socket.

The imprint's from the fuse of the plug that was plugged into the tapo not the fuse that's inside the tapo itself. It had melted straight out of the plug and straight through the front of the tapo.

Good job tapo KP115s havs thermal protection, lucky escape there. We set to 8 amps too. Never had a problem for 2 years even at max speed during the winter.

Sorry mom 😋 didn't see the old SC077 thread there

Any news on this at all. I'm very interested but can't wait forever before I just buy a regular dashcam.

I had some software updates done during my last service a few weeks ago and I was told that a very recent update for the LKA was installed. It's finally behaving itself 🙌 I've been driving it for 2 whole weeks on my regular journeys and a couple of long trips. I left it turned on the whole time...

I'll give this a go on my next long journey. I had that undertray fix done by the dealership but, it didn't stop the noise at all.
