A few weeks ago, the Litter Robot three had an error where it got stuck in the half turned position. The cat let me know! MEOW! MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!

I fixed it, cleaned the litter robot out (litter got into the track). Then I checked it for the next week to make sure it worked.
Now, every time he uses it, the cat comes out letting me know MEOW! MEOW! He thinks I need to go check his box every use.

So, Now, I'm showing him the app. Look its fine.

He doesn't believe me.
 
Sad day today, we received two phone calls regarding someone in our orbit who passed away. My wife's 70 year old cousin was the first. Then a couple hours later, the husband of a friend of 54 years passed away at age 74. One service is already scheduled for this Saturday and the other is pending. Sad even though both were expected. The cousin had a stroke 4 months ago and never recovered. Our friend's husband has been living with kidney failure for 8 years and had to undergo dialysis daily. About a week ago, he quit the dialysis and entered home hospice care.

So sorry to hear the news, please accept our condolences.
 
@chadbag You asked a while ago what the voltage of my controller was outputting. With a multimeter, it just shows varying DC. Well, I fixed my o'scope yesterday finally and this is what I show now.

Kato standard sx. PWM at super high frequency so no issues to coreless. Volts at 18 vdc. Varying the output changes the wave form duration.

To be honest, while I do remember that I asked about it, I don’t remember why or what we were discussing.
