I have a couple of alarms set up using HA and pushover. These alarms override "do not disturb" or "silent" mode on the android phone using the "alarm channel".

The most important ones are the water leak detector under the washing machine and a Reolink camera detecting a person in my backyard after midnight.

The other day I was working from home, halfway through a meeting with the phone muted and the alarm went off. A bit of water had leaked and triggered the alarm. I stopped the meeting for a couple of minutes, solved the problem and this even became a reason to talk about HA with the colleagues (also nerds like me and probably you).

Last weekend I was sitting in the front row in a sold out music call for a classical music concert. They announced that all phones should be set to silent mode, which I did promptly.

5 minutes into the concert, the music is playing softly and it strikes me: if an alarm goes off at that moment the phone is going to play siren noises very loudly and it will take me at least 10 seconds to get the phone out of my pocket. A neighbour could walk into the backyard to fetch a frisbee...

On the other hand, I was sitting in the front row and didn't want to look at my phone while the musicians were playing...

All of that to say: If you have such override alarms, do think about creating a switch in HA to turn all alarms off for situations when even important alarms are not supposed to make noise (concerts, important presentations, funerals, etc).

Is this a thing? I have a lot of things running at sunrise or sunset including a fleet of 15 blinds. And probably twice as many bulbs and strips. I’m noticing the more I had, the more things get missed. A blind doesn’t go down. A bulb doesn’t turn on.

Anyone else have this experience. Before I go staggering my automations, wondering what everyone else experiences.

I've created a blueprint for the IKEA Bilresa (remote with scrollwheel) that works now. This scroll wheel remote is perfect for controlling multiple light groups.

The blueprint lets you control 3 independent light groups (or single lights) with intuitive button mappings:

Button Layout:

• Buttons 1-3: Group 1
• Buttons 4-6: Group 2
• Buttons 7-9: Group 3

For each group:

• Scroll right: Brightness up (+10%) (changable with brightness step)
• Scroll left: Brightness down (-10%) (changable with brightness step)
• Middle button: Toggle on/off
• Middle button (long press): Cycle color temperature (warm → neutral → cool)

⚙️ Customizable Settings

• Brightness step percentage (5-25%)
• Transition time for smooth dimming (0-5s)
• Three color temperature presets (warm/neutral/cool Kelvin values)

📥 Installation

Option 1: Import directly (easiest)

1. Go to Settings → Automations → Blueprints
2. Click Import Blueprint
3. Paste this URL: https://github.com/davvarn/ikeamatterdevices/blob/main/bilresa-scrollwheel-blueprint.yaml
4. Click Preview → Import

Then simply create an automation using the blueprint.

Hi all,

I wrote a detailed guide for migrating your Zigbee network (ZHA or Z2M) to a new coordinator without re-pairing all your devices. This isn't always possible or successful, so hopefully someone finds it useful as I tried to cover any use case I could think of.

Here it is: How to Migrate to a new Zigbee adapter without repairing tou devices

So the wife noticed that with our outdoor garage door opener keypad, someone was lifting it up while we were away. Were they trying to enter a code to open our garage door? Was it innocent? Who knows but since we don’t have a camera to see the front of our garage door which is a much more complex thing to make happen I simply installed a spare smart plug on the garage door opener it self. So now when the house is armed home or away, the garage door opener power is cut and then when it’s disarmed it’s turned back on.

Simple, very easy to setup in HA and effective. It took me like 5 minutes. Happy wife, happy life!

b.

P.s. still looking at options to put a camera out there to help “deter” the behavior and see what’s happening…

I have been a dedicated user of this free service for years now. Not once have I complained about the UI or maintenance, but today a line has been crossed.

The Dominos Integration has been removed.

Who on Earth thought this was a good idea? One of those code dorks with a well-paying and easy job? Or maybe its the HomeAssistant CEO raking in all the income from this service. What a greedy parasite, I just wanted to use my free service for free. But you had to go and change it.

It was absolutely perfect.

I wake up, hit the alarm on my Alanzi clock, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I turn on my Hue lights, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I walk to the bathroom, passing the Aqara motion sensors, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I turn on the Moen tap to wash my greasy pizza face, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I sit at my desk and turn on my PC, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I have a calendar alert go off for a doctor"s appointment, 30 minutes later I have pizza. I start my Subaru, 30minuteds later I have pizza. I sit in the office while this quack rambles on, something about my cholesterol, and I leave. I go home and open the (artist formerly known as)Chamberlain garage. The trapped Amazon employee skitters free, and 30 minutes later I have pizza. I yell at Alexa to play my favorite slop podcast from Spotify. That's worth 2 pizzas right there. My Nest thermostat kicks the A/C on, pizza time. I watch my favorite anime legally ripped from someone at one time on my Plex server, 30 minutes later I have pizza. My friend tells me to join in on Xbox Live for a totally sick round of Roblox with other totally normal fully grown adults. 30 minutes later, I have pizza. Alexa bores me so I yell at my Google Nest to tell me a StarWars™ joke. 30 minutes later, pizza I have. The Rainbird sprinklers start up, 31 minutes later I have pizza. (Yes I know, completely unacceptable and I am sure to let the lazy delivery driver know through their crocodile tears. Pathetic, its like they've never heard of the Castle Doctrine. Anyway.) The fridge is opened, 30 minutes later I have pizza. The floors are robo-vaccumed, 30 minutes later I have pizza. The driver rings the doorbell, 30 minutes later I have pizza. The driver rings the doorbell, 30 minutes later I have pizza. The driver rings the doorbell, 30 minutes later I have pizza. The driver activates the motion-sensing porch lights, 30 minutes later I have pizza.

The blinds are closed, the hot water heater fires up, the microwave is turned om, the weather changes, I blink. Pizza pizza pizza pizza pizza pizza.

It was all so easy. So perfect. Now what, you expect me to call or use an app, like a neanderthal? Bet you also think Dominos is "average to subpar". You all disgust me.

Now if you excuse me, the ambulabce has pulled up for my heart attack, and I need to tell them to slow down so we don't miss my pizza delivery.

I'm reading how a separate VLAN for your IOT devices is more secure and makes your overall network better so I'm looking into doing so with my Unifi network. What considerations should I take when it comes to my devices connected to Home Assistant?

I have the usual stuff, Alexa, vacuums, lights, streaming devices, ect on Wi-Fi with TVs, other streaming devices, AV equipment and my servers all wired. What kind of things should be included? Should the WiFi items have a separate WiFi SSID? Along those lines, I have 4 strategically placed APs (my house had terrible wifi dead spots), should I have separate SSIDs for different areas of the house to keep devices from roaming from AP to AP? Anything else I need to consider to allow HA to talk to all of these devices?

Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone, any of the newer robot vacuums have the mop extender like the dreame? I initially bought the eufy x10 pro omni but sent it back because I liked the mopping from the dreame l20 ultra. I felt the eufy left streaks in the floor upon comparison. However, after almost a year I'm less impressed with the dreame and am looking for something else. My budget is around under $600

I'd like to introduce POSPrinter_Bridge, a self-hosted application to print to network, USB, or Serial receipt printers from Anywhere!

This is a light-weight API wrapped for python-escpos that allows for printing text, QR codes, barcodes, and images via POST requests. I have tested this with my Epson TM-T88VI over the network and it works great. I'm open to feed back, contributions, whatever!

This is also my first project creating my own Docker containers, so suggestions advise on that is welcome as well.

UPDATE: New fork for the HomeAssistant AddOn

Coming Soon (hopefully): HomeAssistant Integration

AI was NOT used to write this code!
