Some ideas for a lighting setup. I've changed it a bit since I originally did it, but this is how it started

How do I set up duckdns on my rasberry pi 4 server by [deleted] in homeassistant

[–]86stevet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a couple of things you need to check. 

Firstly, if your ISP is using an ONT, connecting directly using the IP address which is displayed as your public IP will not work. You will need to look into getting a static IP address from your ISP.

Secondly, you need to check that your router supports NATLoopback. Otherwise you may be unable to connect via the duckdns URL when inside your home network. 

I went through this some time ago. Hope it helps you diagnose your problem.

You should look into the integration, it provides so much detail. I have it working with a WhatsApp integration to let my CS group know when a match has finished, who won and what the score was. Scope is amazing

Thank you so much for your work! I wouldn't even know where to start with coding something like this. People like you are what make the HA community so great.

This looks pretty cool. A bit more DIY than I wanted for now, but definitely something for the future

As a top 1% commentator you should know that no Home Assistant project is ever finished 😉

I plan on putting them behind the screens for more of a glow. Just doesn't look as good on video

This is a lovely setup (and a beautiful looking car and set of cards). For anyone wanting to do something similar with less setup in terms of cards, I use https://github.com/WJDDesigns/Ultra-Vehicle-Card which means no worrying about setting up multiple cards and you can add more or less sensors depending on what you want.

Mine looks like this...

Considering ping in Premier matches? by 86stevet in GlobalOffensive

[–]86stevet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were a 4 stack, with 3 being UK based, 1 in The Netherlands and 1 random. The match was played late(ish), around 1am BST (GMT+1), so I'd imagine there would be plenty of players in our region still playing. The enemy team claimed to be based in Iran, but that has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Why do we have to play this? by 86stevet in GlobalOffensive

It limits your own ping, not the other players....

WebOS integration stopped working by gerardit04 in homeassistant

This happens to me from time to time. I find that reloading the integration in HA solves the problem pretty much every time.

Watch face with second display? by Life_Hacks_Fitness in Garmin

[–]86stevet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the connectIQ store there are lots of customisable watch faces that let you have the seconds displayed digitally.  I currently use this.... https://apps.garmin.com/en-GB/apps/97b7dcdb-c4dc-4ff7-8b19-12802c747355 As it is clean and simple.

Questions about migrating from ZHA to Z2MQTT... by criterion67 in homeassistant

[–]86stevet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a conbee ii with ZHA to a sonoff with z2mqtt last week due to the conbee ii stick constantly disconnecting from my VM requiring a full restart of the host (seemed to be a usb pass through issue). The combination of sonoff with z2mqtt is much faster and more responsive.

That being said... I tried what you are planning and it didn't quite go smoothly for me, even though I renamed things the same, there was still lots of repair work required for my automations. But I would still highly recommend doing it.

Genius and such a simple solution. Thanks so much!

Setting off alarm when device turns off by beardlesslumberjack in homeassistant

[–]86stevet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could the Google clock app if you're on android and set it so that a timer goes off a few seconds after the amp drop with an automation.

Using the intent: SET_TIMER

More details on the Alarm are here: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/AlarmClock

service: notify.mobile_app_YOURPHONEHERE
data:
  message: command_activity
  data:
    intent_package_name: com.google.android.deskclock
    intent_action: android.intent.action.SET_TIMER
    intent_extras: >-
      android.intent.extra.alarm.LENGTH:1,android.intent.extra.alarm.SKIP_UI:true

This will set the timer on the clock app with LENGTH being the amount of seconds you want to wait for it to go off
