Thumbs up

Time for a new mattress. Decided to go with these after trying several in person.
Decided to replace our King with Twin XLs for an eventual adjustable frame. They were the coolest (literally draws heat from the body) feeling and great edge support and excellent motion transfer. 18in thick. Exceptional value. 20 Year warranty (I change out every 6-7yrs).
I then purchased a pair of nice cooling mattress covers, and new set of Bamboo Sheets. Gonna be sleeping like a hibernating Bear this Winter!

Oh wow his car is absolutely gorgeous. Love the engine setup and those enormous 35 brakes. Thank you for sharing! Yeah I totally agree with you. With the going rate for these things, it's definitely more of a passion project than a logical one.

Great pics. What made you decide to go to the plug in model from an M340?

OK.... So we definitely slept much cooler. Naturally a new mattress, especially that is so different than the previous, will take some getting used to. Gimme a week for a accurate review.

I'm looking forward to your review because I think I'm ready for a change myself. I'm on one of the Sealy-Certa iComfort mattresses. It's a hybrid foam/cooling gel/etc.

Thanks! Good question...the M340i was a great car, just not for my particular needs at the moment or next 12 months. In a sedan I need more comfort, efficiency and lower appearance maintenance. The sportiness factor won't be missed as I still have the 2022 M4 Comp.

The M340 was black...I thought I could maintain the weekly washes but couldn't. PLUS, it being a plug-in it offers premier parking at many establishments.

Did you have to deal with any of those new subscription options, like heated seats or whatnot?

I don't know if that's a thing………..yet. When we ordered my lady's M440i a week ago, those options didn't require a subscription.

Thankfully no! The feature subscription model seems odd.

Second Sysnology DS220+ NAS. This one will be dedicated to my PoE cam feeds. I also grabed two RAM modules. One for each of my NAS boxes.

I needed a new Eufy Homebase2 to replace one that had issues. They're normally about $100, but I got a kit on a BF sale at Amazon for $100 that included this Eufycam 2c. So I mounted it on the pole for my weather station. It looks across my front yard and driveway.

True. Knock on wood, we don't have security issues here. This is more of a hobby and an attempt at building the "perfect" system. I'm trying to cover every approach to the house without getting hammered by false alarms, yet still record something if it's out of place. So far, the Amcrest PoE cameras, which are watching all the time, work the best. The Eufy cams only wake up and record when they detect motion, so they tend to miss the first few seconds of the motion and sometimes miss it altogether. But they're wifi and battery operated, so there's no need to run wiring to them. I have enough cams now where I can take a virtual walk around the outside of the house and see everything.
