r/solar•

I recently purchased a new home that has a solar system including a SolarEdge SE7600h-us inverter. The prior homeowner told me that he was able to monitor the system using the My SolarEdge app but that the system lost connectivity a while back and he never bothered to reconnect it since it was just monitoring the system and the system worked just fine without it. He believed it lost connectivity when he changed his wifi password and he simply never updated the system with the new password.

Since moving in I have been able to gain access to the mySolarEdge app by having the initial installer set up an account for me and I can see the system but of course there is no production information a

I’ll be having my first child soon so my wife has decided that we need a camera to make sure we get good pictures of her growing up. I am not really into photography but I do agree that we should be trying to get the best pictures we can. I have an iPhone 7 and wife has the X, we have printed pics from both and they seem to be ok, but not great by any means. This has led me to do some research to find the best bang for my buck so to speak and get something decent.

At the moment I’m torn between three separate things. First is some sort of bridge camera, which I know doesn’t seem to be a favorite here. I was looking at the FZ80 or something similar. Is this even going to give me better pics

r/ecobee•

Hi All, I recently bought a new house that had two ecobee 3 lite units. I programmed the unit upstairs with a “home” temp that should come on a bit before I wake up then turn off when I leave for work. When I look at it I see that it shows that it is in home mode but the heat didn’t actually bring the temp up to the programmed temperature. I checked to make sure it didn’t show a hold temperature and it didn’t. Any idea why it’s not kicking on? Thanks!

I have a 2012 Grand Cherokee and the last couple of days I have heard a hissing noise coming from the rear left tire area after turning it off. At first I assumed it was a slow leak in the tire but the psi has remained normal. Then, I woke up this morning and the battery appears to be dead. Any ideas what might be the cause of this? Is is possible the battery is unrelated? Thanks!

r/AppleWatch•

I’ve had a series 2 watch for about 9 months now. Previously I had a Fitbit blaze and I had gotten used to the constant hr monitoring and I like to keep an eye on my heart rate while working out. My old Fitbit was always able to find and keep my heart rate and it was generally fairly accurate. I always hear about how fantastic the Apple Watch heart rate monitoring is and when my watch does show my heart rate it is indeed quite accurate.

My issue is that when working out the heart rate is a greyed our number about half the time. I believe this means that the watch can’t find my heart rate. I’ve tried moving the watch around, tightening the strap, everything. This happens no matter what wor

I am having a bit of trouble getting my monitor and my laptop to play well together. I have two laptops and one monitor. The monitor is an old Dell E171FP and it only has a VGA output. The first laptop is an HP Pavilion M6 from around 2012. It has both a VGA and HDMI out. This laptop connects with the monitor via VGA and everything works as it should. The second laptop is a relatively new Alienware 15r2 with an HDMI out. I was trying to connect the monitor to this laptop so I purchased a HDMI to VGA adaptor. The Alienware recognized the monitor and it seemed to work but when I try to extend the screen to use both the monitor and the laptop screen it seems to think the monitor is much larger

I have a pair of Shure SE315s and SE215s. However, both have some issues. On the 315s the part the ear cushion connects to on the left earpiece is broken and on the 215s the cable on the left side is a bit wonky. Instead of purchasing a new cable for the 215s and a new earpiece for the 315s I just took the left earpiece off the 215s and popped it onto the 315s. All seems to work but I was wondering if there would be any issues with this. Anyone know? Thanks!

I am having some speed and connectivity issues and I am hoping you guys can give me some insight. I currently have Time Warner and up until a few days ago I had the 50Mbps plan. I use my own hardware and I have a Surfboard 6121 and a Netgear WNR2000 router. I am in an apartment thats about 1000 square feet and there are a decent number of devices. We have two laptops, two iphones, one ipad, two smart TVs and an Amazon Echo.

A regular occurrence is us streaming Netflix and having two phones, one laptop and the ipad in use at the same time. When this is happening its terrible. Speed is nonexistent and the connection seems to be nonexistent even though the signal is good. Also, when I work fr
