En complément du service mail de notifications du Portail Services, RTE propose cette application pour vous permettre de recevoir en temps réel sur votre smartphone les alertes suivantes : • Ecowatt, la météo de l’électricité : Véritable météo de l’électricité, Ecowatt qualifie en temps réel le niveau de consommation des Français. A chaque instant, des signaux clairs guident le consommateur pour adopter les bons gestes et pour assurer le bon approvisionnement de tous en électricité. Ces signaux se présentent sous la forme de 3 couleurs : vert, orange et rouge. Une notification est envoyée en J-1 pour indiquer un signal orange ou rouge. • Indisponibilités des moyens de production partielles ou totales : Ces notifications concernent les indisponibilités fortuites et programmées déclarées pour les centrales et groupes de production situés en France métropolitaine (hors Corse). • Indisponibilités du réseau de transport : RTE déclare des notifications concernant les indisponibilités fortuites et programmées d'éléments de son réseau, susceptibles d'impacter les capacités d'échange aux frontières. • Informations manques d’offres : Le message d'information (intitulé message d'alerte dans les règles RE-MA) est envoyé dès le J-1 lorsque le volume de moyens disponibles sur le mécanisme d'ajustement activables en tenant compte du déséquilibre prévisionnel est inférieur à la marge requise. Ce message a pour vocation d'informer les Responsables d’Equilibre (RE) du déséquilibre potentiel à la pointe de demande, afin qu'ils prennent des actions et les acteurs d'ajustement, afin qu'ils soumettent à RTE des offres complémentaires. • Bourses de l'électricité Spot France prix négatifs ou nuls : En cas de prix Spot négatifs ou nuls sur le marché une alerte est envoyée. • Signaux PP : Dans le cadre du mécanisme de capacité, RTE publie le signalement d’un jour PP. A partir du 1er novembre 2022 : - les jours PP1 et les jours PP2 étant aussi des jours PP1 sont signalés la veille du jour concerné à 9h30 ; - les jours PP2 non PP1 sélectionnés sur critère de consommation sont signalés la veille du jour concerné à 9h30 ; - les jours PP2 non PP1 sélectionnés sur un critère de tension du système électrique sont signalés la veille du jour concerné au plus tard à 19h. Les jours PP1 sont sélectionnés parmi les jours ouvrés, excepté les vacances de Noël. L’obligation de capacité des acteurs obligés est calculée sur les périodes de pointe des jours PP1. Les jours PP2 sont sélectionnés parmi tous les jours, hors weekend et vacances de Noël. La disponibilité effective des capacités de production et d’effacement est calculée sur les périodes de pointe des jours PP2. • Tempo : Les jours rouges correspondent aux périodes de l'année où la consommation est forte, les jours blancs à un niveau intermédiaire, les jours bleus sont ceux de plus faible consommation. Le prix correspondant à chaque type de jour est propre à chacun des fournisseurs qui proposent ce type d'offres. RTE publie chaque jour la couleur du lendemain, qui s'applique à tous les consommateurs ayant choisi une offre de fourniture de type Tempo, quel que soit leur fournisseur.

BrickBack for LEGO® Sets

Read full description

A LEGO® brick in your hand. Which set is it missing from? IDENTIFY THE PIECE Photograph a LEGO® brick: BrickBack identifies its number, name and color. Scan in sequence with one photo per piece; the camera stays open. Recognition uses Brickognize, an online service: scanning needs a connection and your agreement, which you can withdraw in Settings. MISSING FROM… BrickBack matches the piece with your incomplete sets and shows which need it, in which color and how many. WATCH IT PROGRESS Check off a piece you found and watch the set progress. At 100%, it joins your completed sets, dated the day you finished it. PIECES TO BUY “To buy” keeps one list of the pieces your sets still need, always up to date. Group it by set, color or piece type, exclude pieces already in your loose bricks, and export it to Rebrickable or a spreadsheet for free. BrickLink and Brick Owl exports, printing, filtering by set and choosing the order require Pro. NO PHOTO? SEARCH “Search for a piece” finds it by name, number or color. “Where is this piece from?” lists sets that contain it; it cannot tell which one your piece came from. MY LOOSE BRICKS Keep pieces outside your sets, even ones a set needs. From 20 pieces, BrickBack shows sets you may have pieces for. Edit quantities and filter by exact color in “Bricks”. Take a completed set apart: it stays among your completed sets. YOUR COLLECTION, ORGANIZED “Scan a box” reads the printed set number on your iPhone, without sending a photo, to add the set. Pro adds “Built”, tags, notes, “Sort & Filter”, wishlist management, and list imports and exports. “My wishlist” is in “Ideas”; text and image sharing stays free. “I bought it” is free within the set limit. WHERE TO BUY IT NEW With both your App Store account country and iPhone region set to France, or both to Germany, Pro compares dated new-set prices at several stores, excluding shipping. “Sets for less right now”, at the bottom of “Ideas”, explains each comparison, including a recorded price from the previous 30 days where applicable. Price alerts tell you when a wishlist set drops below your target price. Affiliate links may earn BrickBack a commission, without affecting store order or your price. YOUR DATA No account, no banners, no ad trackers. Download the catalog of over 28,000 LEGO® sets on first launch; then browse your collection offline. Full data backup is always free. Scanned photos go to Brickognize; enabling price alerts sends wishlist set numbers and target prices to our server. Pro's iCloud sync is designed to carry your collection between devices in your private iCloud space, which we cannot access. A signed-in iCloud account and available storage are required. FREE • Unlimited piece scanning • 2 sets in total, counted once and for all • Missing pieces, progress and “Pieces to buy”, with Rebrickable and spreadsheet exports • Piece search, possible set origins and box scanning • Three set ideas per theme • 30 different loose pieces, counted once and for all, and three sets you may have pieces for • Full data backup and restore within the free limits BRICKBACK PRO • Unlimited sets and different loose pieces • All set ideas, with filters • BrickLink and Brick Owl shopping-list exports, printing, set filtering and choice of order • Wishlist management, organization, list imports and exports (other than “Pieces to buy”) • New-set prices and price alerts (France, Germany) • iCloud sync Pro offers monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscriptions, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
