Do you need a smart thermostat system to use this. I just have a normal combi boiler and the basic thermostat that came with it. I want to be able to turn the rad valves via the app instead of manually because I'm lazy.
No you don't need a smart thermostat - in fact even if you did this wouldn't work with it. So perfect for just using your phone to turn down the rad valves.
It does not. It only opens and closes a local valve at the radiator. You can adjust satelite rooms separately as far as the boiler is on, beside your main thermostat in the living room operating the boiler. As well as in block of flats houses where there is a central boiler for the whole block you can controll your flat temp. via these.
So, you will need to keep your heating permanently on for this valve to work? So, for example, if the living room where the boiler thermostat is is set to 22 Celsius and the living room is currently 24 Celsius, I then set the Kasa, which is in the bedroom, to 24, as the bedroom was currently 21 and the boiler would not switch on. Unless the living room thermostat was set to a higher temperature, that would keep the boiler on permanently. Is that correct?
useless valves. There are many other products that provide thermostat connected to the boiler, thermostatic valves and temperature sensor that communicate with each other
Yeah, it will have a bit of accuracy problems in this vertical position. It's a pity that these Kasa thermostats cannot be integrated with Tapo Temperature and window opening sensors (yet?).
according to lastest updated, already supported, tapo contact sensor, and tapo temperature sensor. but you need to do a little more work, to set tapo sensor directed to same KASA HUB as the thermostat in kasa app, then it can be used for open window detection, and tempreature correction
Interested in buying some of these. Can the app be used to set a few of them to fully open / close on a schedule, to create a timed zone in the house? Or can you only change them one by one in real time, with a temperature range rather than fully open / fully closed?
what a lovely memory for me! i used to live here and went down a rabbit hole of videos from burton in lonsdale as i was missing home, just didn’t expect to see one of my favourite residents, such a lovely woman and hope she is still doing well.
I have about 20 tapo devices such as hub, sensors, cameras and the robot vacuum and it really annoys me that they haven’t included this in the tapo range considering they also have a smart thermostat and humidity sensor. If they bought this to tapo I’d buy them for all the rads in my house tomorrow
My first ever multi camera video. Worked out quite well. Synchronised the tracks using the audio so able to cut between them easily. Sound from the new mike was crystal clear too
Very nice. I went for a drive last night to Brum. My car's got a V5 engine that sounds nice, and I wanted to hear it in a tunnel. The nearest decent length tunnels to me are in Brum city centre - about 30 mins away. I went quite late to try to avoid too much traffic (clearly not late enough!). I was really surprised at how nice Brum looks at night. Very cool. I know it's the 2nd city, and I've been plenty of times before in the day, but driving around it at night is a completely different experience. It almost seemed exotic. Never thougth I'd say that!
lovely female sow brock. think she is female due to fluffy pom pom tail☺. Sussex is full of badgers. badgers adore nuts and cheesy snacks. I miss my brocks having relocated to inner city nottingham. only in large wooded and parkland spaces do badgers come out here. wollaton park is full of them😂. lovely footage of badger. x .
Such beautiful animals me and my wife see what we think are a family in our garden each night we have all the lights turned off in the house and watch them
Glad you like it. Have a look at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9hRiDmSzORQ.html for more of the city at night. Quality wasn't quite as good however as this was through glass.
I have a large apple tree in my front garden. Every autumn as the apples start to fall, they visit, i have had up to 6 badgers in my front garden at the one time (and its a really small garden in a residential area). Its really sweet to see something so wild in my front garden. Lovely video by the way.
+gauldblimeyjet Where did you get that information from? I'm under the firm impression that they can happily eat bread and dairy. (and I can't imagine corn would cause them any issues... other than if it were salty)
Hi Kahina, I'm an ecological consultant. The issue is that white bread in particular is very poor in terms of nutrition and few mammals maintain the production of lactase (the enzyme needed to breakdown the lactose in milk) into adulthood as they don't need it beyond weaning. They may still consume it but it's not good for them and is likely to give them diahorrea. Same goes for hedgehogs, squirrels etc.
