Electricity usage monitoring using a L1 wall charger?

I recently got a Tucson PHEV and I am able to fully charge the battery overnight on a standard 120V wall plug. However because it's not a smart charger, and the Hyundai BlueLink app doesn't log charging stats/history, I can't see my usage. I've thought about using an app like ev.energy or OptiWatt, but I've heard these apps can kill the 12V battery of Hyundai/Kia vehicles.

What are my options for measuring energy usage? I would like to see how much I am using over a month

Edit: I went with this power monitor

Gas range of the 2023 Tucson PHEV

I recently got a '23 Tucson PHEV limited trim, and my instrument cluster is reporting 337 mi of gas range on a full tank. is this expected? I am seeing online I should be getting 350 - 360 solely on gas

Digital Key v1 doesn't work without mobile data?

I recently became the owner of a 2023 Tucson and one of the features I was most excited to set up was the digital key, especially as the car only came with one fob. However this vehicle doesn't use my phone's Samsung Wallet like the newer ones, so I had to download Hyundai's legacy Digital Key app. However, I've noticed that the app will not launch without a mobile data connection, so I can't even control the car with BLE/UWB. The NFC functionality to even unlock the car door by holding the phone to the handle won't work while in "offline mode."

what happens if I drive into an area with poor service? am I just stranded with no way to even enter my car? What's the point of the app requesting the Android Nearby Devices permission when it doesn't even use it

Is the 5 year/60k mile warranty bumper-to-bumper coverage?

I recently became the second owner of a 2023 Tucson PHEV that I bought from a dealership, it has 12k miles on it. Online I am reading that the second owner warranty is comprehensive, but after calling a few Hyundai dealerships they are telling me it's Drivetrain/Powertrain only. Which is it? I am having issues with the infotainment system and capacitive buttons and want to take the car in for service

Music stutters and crashes on Android Auto

has anyone else experienced this problem? I notice it often if I'm actively playing music and try to use the search feature within the app on Android Auto. the music will start stuttering and then eventually the App will crash completely. I'm using the latest version of Metrolist but the issue has persisted across multiple versions at this point

Follow up to my "US soccer flak" post

Europeans will make fun of Americans for a lack of culture and then proceed to dump on said culture. I guess only their side is allowed to dislike a sport and disqualify it from conversation

u/CGGamer — 3 months ago

Why does only the US get flak for not being interested in Soccer?

Soccer is not the most popular sport in 5 out of the 10 most populated countries in the world, including the 3 most populated. but I don't see these Europeans whining about China or Bangladesh. I'm not sure why they're so obsessed with comparing our domestic sports specifically and not the likes of say, Cricket?

Gemini controls on Android Auto

I am able to get Gemini to control Metrolist by disabling YTM and enabling Metrolist as the default app for music.youtube.com links. This works great for Gemini on the phone, but when I try from Android Auto I just get an error that premium is required. Anyone know a way to fix this?

Voice command action fails to launch Gemini when headphones are connected?

I'm trying to make a smart power button remapper that toggles the flashlight when the power button is held only while the device is locked (hold remapped to open secondary Tasker app in One UI settings) and regular Gemini in all other conditions. However the Gemini overlay closes instantaneously only when I'm connected to my BT headphones but works fine otherwise. I've tried triggering it through an intent and also the Tasker "voice command" operation

Has anyone noticed this behavior or have a work around for it?

[Help] I can't get this AutoNotification profile designed to dismiss text notifications after I reply to work in all scenarios

Hi all,

I have this tasker profile I made that's designed to automatically dismiss notifications after I reply to them. It works by leveraging the %anconversation variable in Tasker, which is generated by an AN intercept and contains a JSON array of the notification conversation, with the latest messages appearing towards the end. What I noticed is that all message replies made by the user lack the "sender" field, so we can use this to determine whether the notification was a reply by the user or not and dismiss it accordingly.

The setup I have appears to be logically sound and works for most situations, but for some reason, if the notification from the sender that I'm replying to contains an image, the notification won't dismiss. I'm not sure why because if I flash %anconversation the JSON array still exists with the correct sender-lacking object at the end.

I would appreciate it if anyone has any input! Here is a Pastebin to my setup

Why does WearOS notify me of my own outbound messages?

I have a Samsung phone on One UI 8 with WearOS 6/One UI 8 watch and I use Google Messages. Is this intentional behavior?
