Feel like a real asshole. Needed to display a long string in acquired via . HomeAssistant has a max string length of 255. Rather than figuring out how to set entity attributes from Node-Red, I just created two component strings below the threshold and recombine them in the UI.

Both my wife and I have a set with a light kit hooked up to our 's. So that when our PC's are on the light kit in the hooked up set is on. Due to the motherboard during the ports those sets are hooked into are always supplying power. As a result they would always be turned on. So used with information from a presence sensor, and information from the the PC's are connected to to determine if they are on. When they are off the NIC speed is

Thats my plan. Installing and install the and Plugin for Kodi. And watching TV after that.

The depressing point is:
I need a VPN app like to block apps which violating my privacy.
I need Kodi and Software to have a seamless integration of two Services in one app.

But one thing is cool. The Rest API of Kodi will allow to steer the TV.
I currently use the on a raspi as an Alarmclock in the morning start online radio.

If everything works there is a plan for may use it with as gamestation.
In the near future I will also create a Videophone for my grandma with libre from .

Just went through and organized my Home Assistant automations. Since we don't have folders yet, I had to make my own with text. I don't even have that many, but it was such a pain. Any word on some way to better organize these? I'm tempted to move them all into Node Red or somewhere, just for better organization.

Just spent past hour trying to debug why my flow isn't switching on my lightbulb

Turns out hadn't switched the wall switch on so it wasn't getting any electricity!

I keep trying to come up with an automation in to use excess solar to charge the EV. My EVSE allows setting the current between 6 and 48 Amps, and I have lots of data points to use to determine if there is excess and set the current appropriately.

The problem is having so many options, I can't decide how to approach this. I've tried some examples on the community, but they're usually specific to Teslas which have other data available.

I might use helpers to emulate what they use

@motoridersd@pug.ninja avatar

I've tried approaching this with . Some people have shared their flows, but it's very messy trying to follow such a thing, and shared code to import also rarely works without proper documentation.

What I keep getting stuck on is how to define the available amps to set the EVSE to. It depends on if it is on and need to deduct its current power from calculations, but my logic seems to fail me when trying to implement.

Ridiculously, my first implementation of the lighting hack for my X1C ran over HTTP, not . I shall now fix this. (adding, not replacing, is the plan)

andypiper,
@andypiper@macaw.social avatar

I ended up using my setup to do the work, since all of the other flows are through there. Simple flow to figure out the intended command from the topic, map to the REST endpoint on the Pico's proxy, and that runs the RF TX command to change the light state. I could have potentially done this on the Pico W, but the HTTP-to-RF stuff works fine, so all I did there was a quick 1.20 upgrade, and a bit of tinkering with the network connection code.

    I finally found a use for my and the official 7" touch screen. It is now running . But to save electricity costs, will send an mqtt command when detects a person in the livingroom.

    Oh irony! Ever since I moved to a new flat, completely devoid of any automation, my automation server keeps telling me to check on all these sensors I should have scattered around. Can't fault it.. works as intended. Monitor your devices this way too!

    Wenn man bei ist, will man natürlich einige Geräte basieren auf dem Strompreis steuern. Beispiel: E-Bike-Akku zum günstigen Preis nachts laden.

    Für die Automatisierung nutze ich node-red-contrib-power-saver. Im Flow wird die günstige Zeitspanne zwischen 22 und 6 Uhr gesucht und dann über eine -Steckdose geschaltet.

    Because I don't want to glue the EPO to the wall during positioning tests, I've built an elevated platform with to put the EPO in a potential position for use.

    This means I can start fiddling with all settings again until it works as desired. What helps a lot is turning the lights on and off through some automation. It won't detect me getting up here on the stairs, but that isn't a hard requirement.

    @talktech @silvermoon82 @barnybug @CheerLights I do have my own home-brew method - I have a flow that listens out for me saying "Alexa,Simon says cheerlights xxxxxx" and it then toots the request to @CheerLights using my own @cymplerobot account

    @talktech @silvermoon82 @barnybug @CheerLights @cymplerobot It's a large rabbit hole to go down but here's my blog entry on setting up to listen to Alexa -I've seen some posts recently that new installs might face some authorisation issues :( https://simplesi.net/simon-says-use-alexa-with-nodered/

    ScaredyCat,

    @cymplecy @talktech @silvermoon82 @CheerLights @cymplerobot I've just setup to have a play with this. Am I correct in thinking I can just use "Alexa, blah" if I can tolerate the 'fail tone'? Nothing seems to happen if I use "simon says" other than Alexa just repeating what I said. No debug output for that, but there is if I just use Alexa, blah

    Put in air flow directors for some extra cooling for the switch in place as well. It's currently running at a fine 57 degrees (inside the outside is always touchable but can feel hot), but can go up to 70 especially when it is hot up here.

    Monitoring everything, currently building something that queries #Prometheus and tosses it over #MQTT to @homeassistant so #nodered can turn on the cooling fan, and in the worse case scenario cut the power.

    A look at the cables under the switch, and it's a wee bit of a twisted rainbow "stream" of data.
    The airflow directors, it's not a lot, especially the yellow one but it should help put some cold air against the switch.
