Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:51 PM PDT Any suggestions on which RGB Led light to purchase? Various sources claims certain lights are better than others, but there doesn't seem to be a standard for choosing. I've looked at Hue and Lifx and i've come to mixed reviews. Any recommendations?

Where are the Z-Wave Plus power strips ? Posted: 28 Mar 2020 09:59 AM PDT The only power strip I found is the Greenwave Powernode 6, but that hasn't got Z-Wave Plus and is discontinued. Why is it discontinued and why are there hardly any alternatives (yet)? [link] [comments] | ||
ZWave Relay to Power Wall Mount Tablet Posted: 28 Mar 2020 06:47 AM PDT I am looking to wall mount and Amazon Tablet 7 as a control panel. It will be above an existing light switch so getting power to it is easy. I want to be able to control the charging cycle of the tablet. Are there any ZWave relays out there that would work directly or in combination with a converter to power the tablet? [link] [comments] | ||

Looking for a spinning/flashing wall plug light suggestion. i.e. an Andon for the workshop Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:12 AM PDT I'm looking for a way for the family to alert me when I'm in the workshop. a few months ago I bought this light, and while it does still light up, it no longer spins. This means its 50/50 if I notice it being on. I had it plugged into a smart plug which was activated via voice command(GH if that is relevant). I don't want to have any of my normal overhead lights flash, as I don't want partial darkness or anything jarring to happen when operating power tools. I can't seem to find what is basically an alert light, but perhaps I'm just searching for the wrong thing. Wondering how you fine folks have solved this kind of thing? TIA [link] [comments] | ||
Help unpairing Ikea button from Aqara curtain motor Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:19 PM PDT I'm having an issue where I have an Ikea button (E1743) and no matter what I seem to do, when I use it the curtains will open/close for the button presses. I am using zigbee2mqtt and ideally trying to control the button actions only with node red. How do I get this to stop happening? What seems strange to me is my automation in node red is also working at the same time as this and I'm positive there is nothing in there that is causing this to happen. I've tried repairing the button with the curtain unplugged but this didn't change anything. [link] [comments] | ||
Multiple condition rules on Tasmota Posted: 28 Mar 2020 09:04 AM PDT Multiple condition rules I have the rule below that when the power switches on it turns on another light then 3 minutes later turns it off again. I want to enhance it by only turning the other light on if it between sunset and sunrise. Rule1 on power1#state=1 do WebSend [192.168.1.25] /relay/0?turn=on; RuleTimer1 300 endon on Rules#Timer=1 do WebSend [192.168.1.25] /relay/0?turn=off endon [link] [comments] | ||
Motion sensor lights for bathroom Posted: 28 Mar 2020 06:56 PM PDT Hey Folks, Am new here and to home automation in general. I have always wanted some night lights that were controlled by a motion sensor. I have seen these LED strips which are available, is it possible to hook them up to motion sensors? If anyone has had any experience doing this I could use some advice on going about this before i start. [link] [comments] | ||
RTI XP-8s initial configuration help Posted: 28 Mar 2020 07:06 AM PDT Making my entrance into home automation I went kind of extreme, got an expensive control processor and a zwave module to boot - now on a struggle bus to get it all configured and up and running. I was able to get as far as adding all the lights to the zw-9 but as now unable to get anywhere with building out the iPad panel and tying in the lights to the xp8s. Anyone out there proficient in RTI configuration that could lend a hand - talk me through the process a bit. Thanks for reading. [link] [comments] | ||
Mesh WiFi - to wire or not to wire? Posted: 28 Mar 2020 05:09 PM PDT Hi there, I saw some other posts about mesh wifi in this forum so hopefully it's the right place. I cannot seem to find an answer to this anywhere. Any help or advice is much appreciated! Just got a 3 piece TP-Link Deco M5 set up in my 3 story house, one on each floor. It's already working way better than the CenturyLink provided router/modem combo, but I'm feeling like it could be even better. I understand that "Ethernet backhaul" or connecting them all to each other, will improve performance. But with each being on a separate floor, it's not really an option. There ARE Ethernet access points throughout the house, so I'm wondering:
BONUS QUESTION: I want to send back the CenturyLink modem/router so I don't have to pay $10 to rent it every month. But need a replacement. Any suggestions? Thank you! [link] [comments] | ||
No drywall - want to install some motion sensors Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:53 PM PDT My goal is to install the wiring and hardware so eventually I'll be able to reliably turn lights on and off automatically via motion sensors. I'd like to be able to detect if someone is going into a room or leaving a room. I'm going to have a chance to put motion sensors pretty much wherever I want when there is no drywall up. I'm thinking of putting tiny ones in the ceiling at doorway to detect direction and then some in corners to see an entire room. Probably do some door switches as well. Home automation is my goal, not security. I don't know what I'll do with software in the end (probably Home Assistant), but I want to take this opportunity to hardwire as much stuff as I can so that I can avoid batteries and WiFi.

Help Energenie 4 gang socket API control Posted: 28 Mar 2020 07:20 AM PDT I have a four gang extension lead ( ENER010 ) and a MiHome gateway ( MIHO001 ). They work together well and through the energenie app I can turn each socket on/off. I can also control each socket individually through the MiHome4u website. The sockets control 4 different light fittings for my reptile enclosure. Via IFTTT I can turn all of the sockets on/off at the same time but i'm not able to do individual switching. I know the individual control is accessible via their API as set out in their documentation here: https://mihome4u.co.uk/docs/api-documentation/subdevices-api/power-a-socket-on-off I am trying to use a webhook on IFTTT to call the API and provide individual socket control. However I cannot work out how to get that to work. I'm not really sure on the syntax to login via basic auth or on how to find my api key. I've found other people that have done it but its all embedded into python code and I don't understand how to turn that back into a simple one line URL I can use as a webhook. Any help appreciated :D [link] [comments] | ||

Research for a personal project Posted: 28 Mar 2020 02:44 PM PDT Hi, still kind of new to this! I'm doing some market research into the big players of IoT. I know everyone hates doing surveys but I've tried to make it nice and short. The project I'm doing research for is my own concept for a smart home hardware platform. Cheap, Secure, Adaptable. Designed to run entirely offline, be easily expanded and tailored for whatever your use case is, and be cheaper to deck out a house than google and co. I'll probably post an in-depth post about my project further down the line but for now I'm just researching. I pray to the lords of reddit that this is well received and I do not get trash answers. please have mercy on me <3 [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 Mar 2020 12:15 PM PDT I am looking to automate more of my pool. I built an automatic poo filler, the lights are automatic and the blower for my spa. I have a vs pump which I don't need to control it from HomeKit. I am using homebridge and hoobs. I have a Hayward heat pump which I would love to control ( spa/pool) from HomeKit and also 2 valve actuators. I know they have the kits for sale from Jandy Pentair Hayward but I don't think I can justify the price for as little as I need it to do. Do you have any ideas or advice? Thanks a bunch!

Thermometer smart device to sync with nest thermostat? Posted: 28 Mar 2020 11:53 AM PDT The floor plan of my house is very weird and heavily edited, leaving our thermostat in an insulated part of the house. When our thermostat reads 70 the rest of the house could just as easily be 65 or 75. I'm looking for a thermometer that could sync up with Nest to get better average temperatures. [link] [comments] |
