Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright
Death__BySnuSnu@lemmy.world 1 day agoI bought a brand new one of these on Marketplace because I really need a cooler bed, but I’ll be damned if I get sucked into a subscription for a fucking bed!! The hack i used was a workaround where you setup your own server that will set the bed temperature automatically at bedtime and can update it once again at some point during the morning (so you can wake up to a warm bed, for instance). It worked alright, but then the main unit crapped out after 2 weeks.

You should definitely be able to fix the main unit. It’s just a heat pump. The value is the tech in the mattress cover.

It’s actually not the pump, but the power supply that crapped out. I kept the unit because I’m sure it’s just a PC power supply, but I haven’t taken the time to crack it open. Oddly enough, there’s no information online about what the part number might be.

Ah dang. I though the nine sleep repo listed the parts but it doesn’t.
Don’t know what version you have but found these photos! imgur.com/a/eight-sleep-pod-2-teardown-hky0334
