Fixed watering schedules don't know if it rained. Mine almost killed my plants this summer, so I built a Home Assistant garden watering automation that tracks heat, rainfall, and forecasts, then decides every day whether (and how long) to water. No weather station required to get started. https://youtu.be/PqaLT3l4-AU #HomeAssistant #SmartGarden #HomeAutomation

Smarter Thermostat with Home Assistant I set up Home Assistant to automatically switch my thermostat between heating, cooling, or both based on weather forecasts, so it stops trying to heat the house on summer mornings or cool it on winter evenings. https://michaelharley.net/posts/2026/08/03/smarter-thermostat-with-home-assistant/ #HomeAssistant #HomeAutomation #Blaugust #Blaugust2026

Hier #homeautomation #homeassistant bubble. Ich suche was, um so einen Wasserzähler auszulesen. Die Scheibe rechts im Bild dreht sich sehr schnell, ist aber nicht magnetisch. Man könnte also z.B. optisch mit einer IR Lichtschranke die Drehungen zählen. Kennt jemand sowas in fertig ausgedacht? Gerne so elegant, dass es wenig Strom verbraucht. Also kommt mir nicht mit einer Kameralösung 😅.

Nice ESPHome component to store the device source YAML as part of the firmware 👍🏻 Should really be a core component 😄 https://github.com/borisfeldman/source-archive #esphome #homeassistant #homeautomation #iot

Can anyone help me understand why one of these light strips works with Home Assistant right out of the box, and the other one doesn't? And maybe tell me what I can do to get HA to recognize any new light? I'm so frustrated. Sorry for Amazon linx, I'm trying to replace Alexa. #homeassistant #lights #homeautomation HA found this. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N1CMGQQ Didn't find this one or any other. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CN4G5VD3

I do wonder, are there any ZigBee/thread/WiFi (local network) power meter plugs that *dont* have a relay switch? I kinda want some for continuous metering for some appliances. #Homeassistant #Energy #HomeAutomation
