  • I had two of these, and loved them. One died and fossil outright replaced it, zero cost to me 1.5 years into the warranty, and battery changes were free in-store. Unfortunately the app support went downhill and the second watch became borderline unusable. Really bums me out because they were SO practical and functional, and I feel like a ton of people would embrace them if they had better marketing/support.





  • The comments read like a lot of people don’t quite understand the issue…There’s no issue with the actual latching mechanism.

    …“Although the problem is with the hood latch” <— literally from the article. Care to re-read?

    It’s just the sensor for reporting the latching state.

    You skipped over the part where a) the latch is deforming, and as a result of that deformation b) the sensor can’t detect that it’s not closed, and so c) Tesla is pushing an update that lets people know their deformed latch isn’t closed properly.

    But yes, we all misread the article. Not you. Definitely not you.


  • Can’t help you with awnings, but you should invest in some cellular shades for your windows. We have the same problem, the entire length of our house, with the rooms we spend the most time in, faces west and from about 1pm-740pm it gets uninterrupted full sun, and brother it is HOT. Even with regular blinds you can feel the temperature increase from one side of the house every step as you walk towards the other side.

    Cellular shades are a GAME CHANGER. They fold up into basically nothing when not in use, and when you pull them down the heat stays out. It rules, and it’s a very affordable and easy to install fix while you build your awnings. You will not regret them.
