I'm surprised this game is reprinted. Didn't expect it to be popular enough.
The board is a lot more colorful and the cards more cartoony. There are two rule changes:
The original board is very dark, but it fits the theme. It is supposed to be dark because it is dead of night!
Determining LoS is more tedious, but it leads to higher tension. You can be in the same room but remain out-of-sight. It makes sense because it is dark. Generally only the chapel and garden is big enough for this.
I managed to sell this after I brought the price down... significantly. Unlike the AH 98 version, I did't feel so heart-pain. It was a mistake to buy this in the first place.
This edition is meant for Acquire game collectors.
Not bad, has electrical usage statistics too.
The product name is WiFiKIT-II-MRSLIM in Tuya IoT platform. Its version is 3.1.69.
add_ele and cur_power fields are not part of Standard Status Set, so they cannot be queried using Get Operation Log API — until you change the device from Standard Instruction mode to DP Instruction mode. These two fields are sent every 5 mins when in use. Other fields are sent on change only.
Now I'm finally able to achieve fan mode for 20 mins using Tap-and-Run scene.
I decided to buy the Spacemate WiFi module after all.
It is pretty small and light.
I cut myself when I removed the air-con FCU front case. It is always difficult if you have never done it before.
Starmex MSXY-FP is easy once you know the correct steps:
The CN105 port is not on the mainboard on MSXY-FP. It is at the IR receiver. I didn't know that and opened the mainboard cover unnecessarily. Short panic when I could not find the connector.
(This was mentioned in the Spacemate WiFi module installation video, but I didn't know what it meant at that time.)
I decided to run the cable out of the case. It should be possible to tape the module to the metal part and keep it hidden by the front cover.
The front cover can still be closed fully.
I find it tedious to set my Starmex air-con to fan mode for 20 mins after use. It's not that bad if I turn it off at a consistent time, but at any other time, I need to change the Off time, and this takes time — need to hold the left/right keys and watch the time inc/dec by 10 mins every 0.5s. If only the air-con has auto-fan mode, or a smarter Remote Control, or... WiFi.
Starmex does have WiFi, but it is rare and expensive ($200+ per FCU). Will need to use its app too.
A common workaround is to use a WiFi IR RC, but I want something that connects to the FCU directly.
I googled from time to time and this time, I found a third-party option!
There are two models: for Mitsubishi Electric and Daikin air-cons. Each model has two variants, one local Home Assistant only ($79), the other Tuya ($99).
And it is made by a local Singaporean! (No wonder he targets these two air-con models; they are the most popular models locally.)
It costs $109 on Lazada. It must be due to 'Lazada tax'...
$100 for each FCU is quite ex, though.
