OP here. I called ecobee and got great answers immediately from them. Their customer support is really good.

They said the both the Taco and Honeywell zone controllers work well but recommended the homeywell because of how its transformer is set up. Makes wiring easier.

I can have one thermostat location and have it respond to sensors setup in appropriate locations in the rooms that need it. It can also run the fan via air quality monitor (VOC) although I may end up doing this via home assistant via a dedicated co2 sensor.

I went with the inovelli switches but just checked out the site really liking the Lutron blinds. Thanks for the tip.

Thats really good to know. I ordered Blues but wasnt aware that it could be converted. Thanks.

winnebago man. Not as obscure after they made the movie, but the found film of that era has a few other hits if you go down the rabbit hole

That place would be pretty cold with no foundation. Looks super cool though.

Chunky boy in the middle there

Edit: how do you like the PL47? Im interested in the short body.

How much of this is due to snow fall vs rain? Like all of it?

You do squats?

Im always on the search for a great pen light. I work in live audio. Im backstage at concerts essentially and am using flashlights constantly. Unfortunately ive always found lithium sized lights too big since im also carrying a knife, leatherman, walkie talkie, tour passes, earplug case, blah blah blah. I end up buying cheap pen lights but am def on the lookout for aa or aaa lights that have functionality and good build quality. Ideally one that can be white light or red with adjustable brightness. Not sure if thats a thing.

Edit: Just sent myself down a rabbit hole lol. Anybody have thoughts on the Emisar D2 dual channel 14500?

I think Lenny can be just as good if not better. It’s gonna be a wild ride with how beta everything is and who’s gonna pay for it etc, but it’s fun to be a part of it in this phase of its development.

There was a song? Dang, I just opened it, said yep it’s blank and that’s fucked up. Then I sadly deleted it and opened up memmy.

Are they ok with lithium batts on planes? I would have assumed i was supposed to check them.
