As I'm currently doing a re-wire, it's a great opportunity for me to put some metering in the house.
I'm single-phase, but I plan to monitor multiple sections of the house, which are each wired for 100A independently.

I'm currently eyeing up either the Shelly Pro 3EM – 120A or the 50A.
As it will fit nicely in the consumer unit, and supports Ethernet.

I previously looked at the Aeotec clamp devices, but they seem to be difficult to find with multiple 100A connectors.

Emporia Vue was also a consideration, but I'm always a little hesitant to buy products that require custom firmware to even work properly, when others are available. And I'd also like to avoid using 2.4Ghz wifi for connectivity.

I'd love to hear any experiences people have had with similar devices, good or bad. And how the integration with HA went.

I guess they kinda have to do this, or you'd have to keep the same person on breakfast until they retired.

I always found it a little bit comfy that BBC pipelined a lot of the flagship presenters.
Steve Wright going from Radio 1, to Radio 2 as the listeners aged, for example.

This was very much a me mistake, so apologies from me.

The long story short, is that we were migrating the domain between accounts.

As the previous DNS records would be wiped during transfer, we made backups, and started the process.
This morning, the "approve transfer" button was lit.
A sensible person would have gone "perfect, lets get this scheduled".
Instead, I just pressed the button.

Unfortunately, when you transfer, and are keeping continuity, you should always make sure the receiving account is ready to re-apply the settings.
I didn't, and the receiving account owner was happily asleep. 100% my bad!

All sorted now (hopefully).
There might be some weirdness while DNS updates propagate through the various caches.

I think the lessons learned are pretty obvious:

• Consider how noticeable downtime will be, and schedule with this in mind.
• Check that your counterpart is online when transferring a domain.
• Always schedule a maintenance window, even if you get excited when the button activates.

Apology from me. We're moving some things around on the back end, and my non-thinking brain didn't think to check another admin was online before handing over control of a system to them.

Hopefully, feddit.uk will be back up before the end of the day, assuming nothing horrid happens.

Years ago, I switched my mayo from Hellman's to Heinz, because the bottle design meant there was less transfer loss.

How the tables turn: I'm back on Hellman's for mayo, and they do a well reviewed ketchup too now.

(Hellman's is Unilever, a UK based company. Although they're apparently being shits to Ben and Jerry now...)
