Perhaps another factor is insurance/liability? I used to live in an apt, the BC were happy for me to pay for everything until they found…

This is linked by Costco [website](https://www.costco.com.au/services#home) so it's definitely NOT a scam.

rookie317 commented on Ubiquiti Unifi - New Setup Help
UDM/UDR are not actively promoted anymore so I think they'll be EoL soonish, they also don't get latest OS iirc. If you like Unifi eco,…

Yeah man, for that (or RGB) you need to go to their Pro Max range 😂 very Apple like. Honestly just a few 2.5GbE ports would have been…

whyisave on [Prime] ASUS RT-AX86U Pro AX5700 Dual Band Wi-Fi 6 Router $350 (Was $463) Delivered @ Amazon AU

OpenWrt brings more granular controls to you, GL.inet brings a more user friendly, simplified webUI + a phone app. I think for 90% of…

I'll be honest, I don't have a Flint 2, it could very well be a problem with the Gl.inet implementation of OpenWrt. You could flash the…

I assume you only get 400Mbps on Wifi (if wired then there's some serious routing issue going on) and connected to the router. Tbh that…

Thank you for accommodating. I just want to clarify, will the kit components be different given it's a 12v BMS?

bcYield on Amazon eero 6+ Wi-Fi 6 Router $159.99, 3-Pack $389.99 Delivered @ Amazon AU

Dual band here means 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Tri band can be ambiguous (2.4+5+5, 2.4+5+6). Quad band is even more ambiguous :D

Is there any chance a 24V/48V kit course will be offered in the future?

Exactly, if you buy cells from an Aus reseller, at least there's some peace of mind.

This is also not 6GHz (Wifi 6E or 7). Did you mean "non Wifi 6" aka Wifi 5? There are a few eero versions: - eero: Wifi 5 - dual band…

icanfly on Tesla Powerwall Home Battery $10,400 + Gateway $1,700 (Total $12,100) + Delivery & Installation Costs by Quotation @ Tesla Au

To be clear, the PW2 has a built-in inverter (DC to AC), any AC-coupled home battery does. Another component not usually advertised is the…

Agreeing with all you just said, I'm just concerned that the main targeted audience of racing are petrolheads and EVs will just be banned…

This is the correct approach, I use my M3 daily around 40-50% unless I know I need the extra range. Half the battery is essentially dead…

Yes I'm aware, many will find the Ioniq 5 N 25kwh/100km acceptable for daily driving. I guess my point was building an EV with the focus…

Yes the typical "EVs are twice the ICE weight" is very much an exaggeration. A Tesla M3 is about the same weight as a C63 for example. And…
