Anker SOLIX smart plug usage brakedown

Is there an Android app (or way of doing) to have the energy usage breakdown on month/week/day/hours for the Anker Solix smart plug ?

The Anker app only shows the total usage since the first day power up and the instant usage.

I need this feature without having to create a home energy system in the app. Just for a standalone smart plug.

Anker SOLIX C300 charging upper limit

Is there a setting to limit the charging upper limit on Anker Solix C300 (non-DC) like on the more expensive models ?

I use it as an UPS for the home network and it's always plugged in and most of the time on 100%.

I would like a setting to limit it to just 80% when plugged in.

Working alternative to Google Wallet

Google wallet stopped working on my wonderful Asus Zenfone 7 a while ago because that Android version was outdated (the message didn't say this because of political correctness).

The solution that I found is a bit expensive as it requires buying a NFC token/wearable, but it works and it's quite elegant, too.

The name of the solution is Fidesmo (Swedish company).

They work the same as a proxy between the card provider and the NFC token. And it's free (at least now - been using it for almost an year now).

I use Revolut and unfortunately it works only with VISA cards from them.

The token can be a bracelet, a watch, a ring, etc - just look on the Internet for compatible Fidesmo devices. There are lots of them and quite elegant. I bought a cheap LAKS bracelet with a big discount on Black Friday and removed the NFC chip to put it in a pretty iTag case 😄

So, once you have the token/wearable and the card, just install Fidesmo on the smartphone (I use Android, stock ROM, no root needed), start it and follow the steps. It takes a couple of minutes for the pairing and writing the NFC chip.

In nearly a year I never had an issue with this setup.

Change fan of Ecoflow River 3 Plus

I have an Ecoflow River 3 Plus and the tiny fan is a bit noisy. I would like to replace it with one from Noctua.

Has anyone did it ?

I'm interested more in the fan wiring.

Yes, I'm aware this will void the warranty 🙂

Also, there is a video on Internet for doing exactly this but for Ecoflow River 2.

Bluetti Elite 10 mini 15W USBs deliver less than 10W

Hello,

I have two Bluetti 10 (mini) and a Bluetti Handsfree 1, and all of them share the same problem: all USB ports (type C and A) marked with "15W" deliver less than 10W. All devices have up to date firmware, no other active consumers just the device plugged in one of those 15W ports.

I tried different phones, power banks and other USB consumers with different USB cables and all share the same behaviour: < 10W.

Smartphones with original cables in all other chargers and power banks work with 17W, 20W+, 50W+ etc but <10W in Bluetti's 15W port. In Bluetti they usually work with 7W (for a couple of seconds the Handsfree provides 9W).

I don't expect to get more than 15W on those ports, but why just 7W ?

Meanwhile, the ports marked with 100W work ok (they go beyond 20W, 50W+, etc).

Does anyone else have this issue ?

Did you manage to fix it ?

PS: Bluetti support asks for a video (??????) after giving detailed written behaviour.
