We're looking to have a Level 2 charger installed at our home, does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks!

GFiber just came to our neighborhood and we're set up for installation next week! We've been waiting for this for years -- but will it be as good as we hope it to be? I just heard that they are being sold to private equity and the general sentiment around that is bad...

What have recent experiences been like? Are speeds consistently as fast as promised? Do you suffer any outages? What is the final bill price like for Core 1 Gig?

Right now we're with AT&T Fiber with down speeds around 300-400 mbps and up speeds around 100-150. Bill is $95/mo.

Thanks!

Hi all! Still sitting on the fence between Eufy and Reolink, though it seems a lot of people have jumped ship from Eufy to Reolink and have been happier. However, I know we all have different needs and many of the things that have pushed people to Reolink may not be relevant to me.

I am attracted to the idea of how when using the Homebase 3, you can distinguish family members from strangers and prevent getting notifications on household members coming and going. Is that something that is also possible with Reolink? I'm first looking at the WiFi Doorbell Gen 2.

Also, does anyone know if Reolink's cameras have better range for motion detection? I'd like to pick up motion close to the street (at the sidewalk) but not IN the street (so no vehicle traffic). I have a pretty standard sized suburban front yard, so it's not huge, but the Eufy camera I'm testing now is kinda struggling to get motion on the sidewalk.

Thanks everyone!

We have three bedrooms without ceiling fans currently and live in Texas. It’s time to install them! My partner is leaning toward something budget, whatever “gets the job done.” I’m leaning toward something that looks nice, is quiet, energy efficient, modern, and overall improves the value of the house. There seems to be quite a significant difference in cost between what he’s looking at and what I’m looking at.

Is there anything we should be considering that might influence either of us in a particular direction? Do I need to take our ceiling fans this seriously? Will it make that much of a difference?

While I’m here, I’m also open to suggestions… I would prefer to skip integrated LEDs just because I don’t like the idea of having to replace an entire fan when the light burns out, but I can be influenced there as well. Bedrooms are about 10x10 or 10x12, I can’t recall… and the ceilings are 8-9’ tall.

Single story home: 60% tile and hardwood, 40% medium pile carpet. One area rug. High shedding dog.

Budget: $300 to $800

Our vacuum cleaner may be done for. It's nothing fancy, Hoover whole house rewind, can't say I've been real happy or real disappointed either, it's a vacuum and my partner brought it to the relationship. That being said, we have a very high shedding dog and their hair drives me wild. We have a robot vacuum (Eufy 11s Max) that I run frequently for just the hard floor areas, but need a reliable vacuum that can get the hair out of our area rug (vintage Karastan, machine made) and bedroom carpets, as well as maybe the hard floors on occasion. Bonus if we can use it on the couch I guess but budget may be an issue, so open to all sorts of suggestions.

The bedroom carpets never, ever feel clean. I could re-vacuum and re-vacuum those floors and STILL pull dirt and hair out of them. Please help!
