We're kicking off July with another addition to the WWHA program - Nuki! 🎉

They bring three different smart lock types to the program certified for use with our Matter integration. Read on for more about Nuki's origin story and the devices certified 👇🏼

Hm. Can't address my hue lights remotely anymore. They wanted me to "create an account" in order to, so maybe it's time I find that zigbee antenna I got for my webserver and figure out how to de-proprietarize them. #homeautomation

Die Diskussion um die Komplexität im Smart Home. Wenn ich mir Home Assistant so anschaue, dann stimmt es schon… es ist komplex. Aber warum ist es komplex? Weil es dir viele Freiheiten gibt. Und das ist genauso bei ioBroker und wie sie alle heißen. Das Smart Home aus dem eigenen Keller bedeutet, seine Zeit zu investieren, um es perfekt auf die eigenen Bedürfnisse anzupassen. Wie siehst du das? #SmartHome #HomeAutomation #IoT #Technologie

Gelegentlich spielt bei #HomeAssistant ja ein #Sensor einen Streich und es wird ein unrealistischer Wert (#Ausreißer) erfasst. Bei den #Energie #Entitäten ist die Korrektur im #Datenrecorder kein Problem. Allerdings habe ich bei einer #Ikea #Inspelning #Steckdose einige kurze Ausreißer in der Leistung. siehe Screenhot. Das versaut das gesamte #Diagramm für min, max und ⌀. Da man durch die extremen Ausreißer eigentlich nichts mehr erkennen kann.

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, diese falschen
#Leistungswerte zu korrigieren?

June was an especially energizing month - we came together in person for the first Open Home Foundation Summit in Dublin. 🤩

This month's newsletter covers highlights from the summit, stats from Community Day, new voice features, Apple following our lead, and more! Read on 👇🏼

Hey #homeautomation #diy folks.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a small gps unit with WiFi that runs on battery that I can add to my dogs collar ( she is medium size)

I went running today and I would like to see what mill age she gets when we run.

The ones I have found are the size of bricks and are proprietary so you can’t hack on it.

I don’t mind building out my own but I need recommendations for the actual hardware and the kicker is it would be great if the hardware was available in Europe

#Apple should never have gone with the LLM hype and should've focussed on #HomeAutomation. #LLM is a bubble which will burst, but should it actually turn out something useful in 10-20 yrs? An Apple which had focusses on home automation would've been in the ideal situation to actually make it do something useful.

I suspect my RasPi does not what it is supposed to do because it runs out of power. This is getting so out of my own comfort zone 😿

First it works as it should and after a while it ... does everything else except closes the relay to trigger door closing - which is The Reason why it exists!

I guess next thing is to switch it with my other, more capable Raspberry 3, 4 or 5 with the current Zero and try with a new hardware and maybe bigger phone charger.

Just finished setting up the dual zigbee/zwave PoE kit from @tubeszb@mastodon.social

He was very helpful (as always!) in getting it working -- I needed an additional config because I had an older zigbee radio.

With the new Mikrotik networking setup I have way fewer PoE ports than I had before (24 before vs 7 now) in the network core so every bit helps!

Still plenty of open PoE ports in the media center switch so I am not exactly short on ports

So we have a solar installation with an EWZ energy manager, which is a embedded system that measures the total power of the house, both consumed and produced by the solar panel, problem is, this thing has no API and AFAIK is in maintenance mode.

With a bit of hacking around, I finally managed to get write small python script that gets the measurements from the command-line, as a small JSON dump. That was easy, now comes the hard part, integrating this into #homeassistant #homeautomation
