(Although I did see a property with “a $60k Tesla solar system with 4 batteries.”

I am not advocating no zoning; for instance, we would not want a battery factory or porn shop next to a preschool, but we are far over regulated when it comes to land use.

If he didn't buy them upfront, install privately and maintain his own batteries, he owns nothing.

I decided to:a) make it unusable as an actual fireplace (it can't burn anything) b) keep it looking like a fireplace with an electric insert that puts out heat and 'realistic looking' flames.c) make the hearth/mantel really nice and put battery candles (Costco) all around.It looks nice, and still provides a central focus for people to gather around.Is it as nice as a 'real' fireplace?

Not the best for big commercial buildings where you might want tamperproof hardwired cctv, but for a duplex house hack these guys are cheap, flexible, portable, and wireless (some need power but some are even battery powered).

Last time I paid the handyman $85 to go troubleshoot it, and it turned out that popping the batteries out and in "reset" that connection to the Wifi bridge.

I had the touch screen one first, and I had a lot of problems with it timing out, battery issues, touch screen not working etc.

I'm sure the batteries in the smoke detector need to be replaced along with the filters in the HVAC system.

., not replace smoke alarm batteries, etc.).   

Are there any patterns and do you have battery backups for your sump pumps.
