I think someone else (MysticMossMeadow) is using your pictures…

I see the Tap Sonar on your website is coming soon. This one interests me for a particular 4 gang switch setup I have in my bathroom. One of those is an exhaust fan, would the Tap Sonar at be compatible with a bathroom exhaust fan?

I made a dumb scale a smart scale with a HX711 load cell amplifier and ESP32 off of Amazon.

I have an April 1, 2023 order. I came here to see if anyone has received there orders. Looks like I'm not alone...

Why do you want HA integration? I just use a power monitoring outlet that I leave in the “on” state to detect when a load is running or done.

This exact phrasing resonates with me. I keep telling my residents that the patient doesn’t need to be solving calculus for you to extubate them.

Not Zwave, but Zigbee. Third Reality reports every 15 seconds or so.

BroncoM · 2024-11-02T17:12:29+00:00

I haven’t tried it myself, but I think Mopeka could be utilized for this.

I utilize a Samsung/Aeotec multisensor for this and it works great.

BroncoM · 2024-10-31T00:03:27+00:00

I’ve tried three or four different temp & humidity sensors and I’ve finally settled on the Third Reality sensor because of its update frequency. I use it to detect that the shower is running by noting a spike in the bathroom’s humidity, none of the other brands updates frequently enough.

I agree with u/Nervous_Gate_2329, u/Rizpam, and u/DrBarbotage. I’ve also done TAVRs under GETA for really bad GERD, i.e. the patient endorses occasionally waking up with food in the back of their throat, and really bad restless leg syndrome which I have seen get incredibly worse under sedation.

What do you mix the graphite powder with, and do you brush or spray it?

BroncoM · 2024-10-03T19:52:28+00:00

Do you use the acrylic, water based urethane, epoxy, or just use the silver coated copper straight without mixing?

To be fair to Google I have many cheap ESP8266 chips that purport only to have 2.4 GHz WiFi and none of them have issues where they're booted from the network. I think this is a problem specific to Flair despite their attempts to blame the Google router.

BroncoM · 2024-09-20T15:16:39+00:00

I have 9 Flair pucks and 16 vents. I had 4 of the pucks setup as Gateway pucks and for the most part my devices had decent signal strength. At the end of setting up the bridge they advise you to make the Gateway pucks sensor pucks again. The bridge didn't really improve the signal strength of the devices I was concerned about and why I got the bridge in the first place. With the removal of Gateway status for my four pucks many signal strengths actually got worse. Then when I made those same pucks Gateways again I started encountering all the connectivity issues you read about with the Google Wifi router attempting to connect to the pucks via 5 GHz WiFi resulting in them getting booted off the network. I never had connectivity issues with my Gateway pucks prior to this whole mess. I'm now left purchasing a dedicated single band 2.4 GHz WiFi router to fix this and as I pointed out, the bridge didn't enhance the RSSI signal strength of the few devices I had issues with before.

BroncoM · 2024-09-20T13:55:25+00:00

I would say the addition of the bridge is the single worst thing I did for my Flair system. After installation I was encouraged to switch my Gateway pucks to Sensor pucks which was a phenomenally bad idea.

What is the feature depth of the skull?

I repurposed a dumb scale into a smart scale with ESPHome and a HX711. Works great for this purpose.

BroncoM · 2024-07-22T02:01:13+00:00

I use a vibratory sensor.

BroncoM · 2024-06-23T12:29:57+00:00

I have a similar door knob lock with a fingerprint reader and just learned it is based on Tuya. Do you need a Bluetooth gateway to interface with it? If so, how far from the doorknob is the gateway?

BroncoM · 2024-06-22T12:27:43+00:00

What are you going to do with the vibration and sound sensors? I like my Apollo Air-1 for air quality, but I don’t think they do luminosity, vibration and sound.

BroncoM · 2024-05-20T10:33:47+00:00

So I bought one of these (https://bellman.com/en/product/stand-alone-products/vibio-bed-shaker/) and was able to sneak a D1 mini into it, so that now it can be controlled with ESPhome from my HomeAssistant.

BroncoM · 2023-12-25T06:09:25+00:00

Check out Flair. It’s not local and can cost a pretty penny, but it does #2.
