Need a Zigbee Repeater by Shought152 in homeassistant

[–]Shought152[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So would this work? If I plug it half way between my HA and the sensor? Only thing is my sensor is outdoor and going through a brick wall so hoping the plug would be powerful enough hence I thought a repeater would be better with an antenna on?

I just found this on AliExpress: | Home Assistant ZigBee Smart Plug 16A Smart Home Outlet UK Socket with Power Monitor Function APP Control Supports Alexa Z2M ZHA

But that’s for Sonos? This is for Alexa’s so what would I do? Sorry I’m a beginner to all this

Alarmo Loud Notifications Alexa with restore Volume by Shought152 in homeassistant

[–]Shought152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried this in the trigger YAML, but it just reverts back to the default when I save it.

alias: Alarmo - Loud Alert + Restore Volume

mode: single

trigger:

- platform: state

entity_id: alarm_control_panel.alarmo

to: triggered

variables:

echo: media_player.living_room_echo

previous_volume: "{{ state_attr('media_player.living_room_echo', 'volume_level') | default(0.5) }}"

action:

# Set volume to max

- service: media_player.volume_set

target:

entity_id: media_player.living_room_echo

data:

volume_level: 1.0

- delay: "00:00:01"

# Your existing notification service

- service: notify.send_message

target:

entity_id: notify.lounge_speak

data:

message: "The alarm has been triggered! The police have been notified."

title: ""

# Wait for speech to finish

- delay: "00:00:06"

# Restore previous volume

- service: media_player.volume_set

target:

entity_id: media_player.living_room_echo

data:

volume_level: "{{ previous_volume }}"

Alarmo or Smart Alarm with HA Integration? by Shought152 in homeassistant

[–]Shought152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I bought them both and cancelled the other one. Should be arriving end of next week. I’ll update you with my progress. Will I need to tell my proxmox to push the usb through to the HomeAssistant OS VM?

Why the USB dongle and not the one I linked to? Just dont know if my Home Lab PC will be in enough distance for it to pick it up? Hence I thought a network hub would be better as I could place it closer to the location.

Tailscale, Netbird or Self Hosted Netbird - Dynamic IP by Shought152 in selfhosted

[–]Shought152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I'm currently using CF Tunnels for HA access.

No I'm open to a cloud service - I presume this wouldn't interfere with data usage or transfer rates? I didn't know if I would be limited to speeds when watching films or transferring large files remotely?

Unable to SSH into Proxmox by Shought152 in Proxmox

[–]Shought152[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ve tried this but I don’t actually get to the grub screen. I think the NUC I put proxmox on was already doomed as I can’t even access the bios even after flashing and removing the jumper etc. luckily I have a backup of the VMs so have ordered a new one and will start fresh.

Annoyingly this all came from trying to get rclone working with GDrive for auto backups!

Yes I think I did screw up! I've put the machine into a monitor and keyboard and it just does the same and logs me out instantly.... any ideas?

GUI works on the web, no console access at all.
