The one thing about my #SmartHome I've been missing the most during these two weeks of vacation is the lights turning on and off automatically.
I have them set up so that they turn on when I'm home and a) the sun is getting low enough astronomically speaking or b) the power generation of our solar panels falls under a certain threshold. Being greeted by the lights turning on automatically earlier felt nice.
And then everything turns off automatically when I put my phone on the wireless charger by my bed, so that I don't have to do that "one last act" of turning the lights off, and I have a very obvious confirmation that my phone's charging.
Heute mal den #SolarEdge #WechselRichter ans Netz gebracht. Kein Webinterface 😠 Für den lokalen Zugriff auf die Daten braucht man einen Installateursaccount und eine spezielle App von Solaredge, die sich dann per lokal aufgespannten WLAN des Wechselrichters mit diesem verbindet. Nun gut, der Account ist recht einfach zu bekommen, "Self-Installers" werden auch akzeptiert.

@architekt @magisternavis das mit den 7kWp stimmt schon. Ein intelligentes Messsystem (iMSys) besteht aus einer modernen Messeinrichtung (nicht mehr die schwarzen drehenden Dinger), die um ein zusätzliches Gateway ergänzt wird, welches per Mobilfunk / LAN Daten zum EVU oder VNB sendet. Das kostet locker flockig mich bei <2000kWh Verbrauch und mehr als 15kWp Erzeugungsleistung um die 160€ im Jahr lt. Preisblatt des VNB, obwohl ich gehört habe das 100€ die Obergrenze sein soll?! ... soviel abgeregelt werde ich nicht, die #iMSys sind soweit ich weiß nicht lokal per API o.ä. abfragbar für #smarthome und co (und nein ich meine nicht die optischen Ausleseköpfe für die moderne Messeinrichtung, sondern das #gateway direkt)
I wish a new player would enter the smart home space and take everyone’s lunch.
Apple - inconsistent voice assistant that doesn’t integrate with too many other devices.
Alexa -…. A gradually worse assistant turned full advertising platform
Google - from all accounts pretty good and works consistently but not very privacy friendly.

I got a dozen Zigbee bulbs at a bargain and am starting to replace the worse Wi-Fi bulbs with them. So far, setting up a random bulb with an existing hub has been a super painless experience. I think I’d have been a huge Zigbee proponent if I’d tried this years ago—now Matter seems to be the thing to support, but maybe Zigbee devices with a Matter-compatible bridge is still a decent way to go.
Why did the industry not broadly settle on Zigbee like they are with Matter?

I'm no security researcher, but my intuition has always told me that #SmartHome devices shouldn't have direct access to the network. Therefore, I've gone out of my way to avoid #WiFi based devices in favor of #ZWave or #Zigbee whenever possible, working under the assumption that an attacker would first need to #pwn my #Hubitat before they could access any of my actual #HomeAutomation devices. In your expert opinion, is my intuition on this subject more or less accurate?

Hach ja, ich liebe #PhilipsHue… Wollte gerade alle Lampen in #HomeAssistant kriegen und bei der ersten klappt es super. Und dann? Nope. Die Lampe geht nicht in den Pairing Mode. Es gibt offenbar eine Möglichkeit eine Hue-Lampe in den Paring Mode zu versetzen, aber die Funktioniert nur so etwa 2-5% aller Fälle, weil die Timing exakt sein müssen. Wer denkt sich sowas überhaupt aus (Siehe Screenshot).
Conveniently kann man auch weitere Hardware von Philips kaufen, um Lampen zurückzusetzen. Ist doch super oder? 🤪 Ich weiß schon, warum ich von diesem ganzen Mist weg will und alles nur noch in Home Assistant haben möchte. #SmartHome

I am a backend-developer using python and #javascript by day, but i am living on github by night too and working on one of those unfinished projects there (#rust, #c, #python and #cad)
If I am not tinkering with my #smarthome you will find me in the guts of some #3dprinter or fiddling with some #electronics . Currently you'll find me in the guts of a Deckel FP4 #CNC mill.

I have a ton of Wi-Fi A19 RGB smart light bulbs that work fine, mostly from two or three different brands. I’m considering upgrading to Matter light bulbs, as I am tired of the latency with so many devices on Wi-Fi and want everything to be the same.
Is there some decent secondhand market for these? I could upgrade piecemeal but I feel like it only really makes sense to do it all at once.

Hi there, dear curious being!
You can find me under the names of sowa (Polish for owl) or sowi (short version for hard-for-non-Polish sowiszcze). I avoid using my given name. I use he/his/him pronouns generally. I'm from #Poland, so I know #Polish (#polski) as my native tongue, but use #English way more often, at least on the Internet. I'm learning #Finnish (#suomi) using tools like #Duolingo.
My wife and I have been taking care of #bunny (well, plural should be here) for many years and currently, I'm a #bundad of four #rabbit(s). I can tell you quite a lot about them and show you a lot of their #photos. I love #parrots, too (and #birds in general).
I like a good #Meme or #DadJoke. If you saw sowa on #Imgur or sowiszcze on #reddit - that was me. Also, #DarkHumor is in my domain, since I'm a #Millennial hahaha.
I'm into all things #Pokémon. This includes #Nintendo #Switch #games, #PokémonGO, #PokémonMastersEX, and #collecting #TCG #cards. I foster a small local #community of PGO players, treating #Discord as the main place of operation. I like(d) attending PGO #GOFest and #SafariZone. I've also been involved in #TheSilphRoad for a few years now.
If it runs on #electricity, it's probably a #hobby of mine. Biggest of them being, in no particular order: #IoT and #SmartHome (#HomeAssistant, #ESPHome), #SelfHosting, #PCBuilding, #3DPrinting, #3DModeling. Of course, I picked an #IT related career, so I'm a #SoftwareEngineer. I play #games on #NintendoSwitch, #Playstation, and sometimes #PC. I prefer #IndieGames or relaxing ones.
I can occasionally #vent about stuff, #driving being my main source of anger. On that note, I can be considered #neurodivergent because of my #depression and #anxiety. I try and advocate for the improvement of #MentalHealth everywhere.
Other notable hobbies of mine include #refurbishing, #reusing, #upcycling, #scrum, #agile, #dotnet, #csharp, #electronics, #diy, #fixing, #fiddling, #technology, #fantasy, #NordicMythology, #music, #Szczecin, #tinnitus, #cooking, #baking, #photography…
Today's #SmartHome success is that I managed to display the state of four different entities on one single button of my #StreamDeck.
I'm using a #HomeAssistant integration that keeps track when what trash is being picked up, and it has four different sensors. I've been wanting to show which of them's active (being picked up the next day) on my streamdeck for a while, so that I don't forget about it.
Today I've been creating some updated icons for some other buttons, and it finally clicked that I could use HomeAssistant's "Generic Camera" integration to create an "ip camera" that serves one of 16 static images, for each combination of the four different sensors!
Now I can use the Streamdeck Plugin "API Ninja" to show the image of that "camera" directly on my streamdeck.

Hi, my name is Martin, I go by DarkFox (or DarkFoxDK) on the internet. I'm in my mid-30's and I've been doing #WebDevelopment, #programming, and #database stuff since I was still in school.
Currently I'm working with complex #automation systems in #HealthCare, where I'm a bit of a jack of all trades, doing a bit of #UserSupport, #SystemAdmin, and #DataAnalysis.
At home I thinker with a lot of #SmartHome stuff, based on #HomeAssistant. This includes building my own #electronics and #3DPrinting stuff.
At times, I enjoy running around as a big silly #fox, as part of the #Furry fandom.
I'm also #ActuallyAutistic, #AuDHD, and part of the #lgbtqia #AlphabetMafia.
