    I'd Buy This! Would You?

    I'd have a Capri. 3.0S. but prices ridiculous. Or even a escort MK1 or 2, but again too expensive. Last on the 70s and 80s car a Datsun Z.

    Garden shed recommendation

    Maybe have a go at a DIY build. I'm doing one and honestly think you get a much better quality build.

    Add simple smart switch to external power socket

    Use a cheap sonoff WiFi switch. Flash it with Tasmota and then you have a webpage for that device to switch it on and off, set timers create rules. All on your lan and no cloud needed.

    My DIY Shed

    I have made some more progress. I have got the framing done and the walls up. I ended up cladding this in OSB. At a later stage I'm going to add cladding. Video uploaded: https://bit.ly/4irMJwR Next step is the roof.

    Energy v cost, do people really not know the difference?

    Cookers and microwaves should update over the air. It's a pain keep resetting them after a power cycle.

    Full fibre install location

    The engineers are quite flexible. If you ask nicely they usually oblige, but they won't remove old cables that aren't theirs.

    Best TV recorder box?

    I use three tuners at the same time so I can record multiple channels at the same time. I use a Pi TV hat, plus two USB tuners. I'll have to check which I use and let you know.

    Are there Sonoff users here?

    I use a hub to communicate. But you could build it without. Tasmota firmware has its own rules based engine letting devices speak to each other without a hub.

    Energy v cost, do people really not know the difference?

    I don't have a smart meter, so I hooked up a Shelly EM clamp on the meter tails and it records electric used and shows live usage. It's good to see how power usage changes over the course of the day, plus switching things on and off and watching the change in power.
