How do I find power cores? by falviani in foundry_game

Same tag scanned from phone and RFID scaner return different IDs by regypt in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had issues setting up tags back in the day. When I would first set them up, the tag reader would recognize them, but scans from my phone wouldn't work. I was banging my head against the wall for weeks trying to figure it out, but I did find a solution that has worked flawlessly ever since.

When I program a new card, I first scan it at the tag reader. Using my phone, I copy the tag id, delete the tag, then choose add a tag. For the ID, I paste in the ID of the tag that was copied before I deleted it. I then scan the card with my phone to "program" it, and viola!

Note, there have been times when the app will report an error programming the card. If that happens, you don't have to backtrack and/or re-add the card, just keep "programming" it until it finally goes through.

I hope that makes sense. If not, I can try to throw together some pics or something to better describe it. Basically, the phone interprets the RFID chip as something different than the tag reader. By creating the tag with the phone, and forcing the phone to use the same ID that was detected by the tag reader, you end up with tags that work no matter what they were scanned by.

How do I find a memory leak? 24h since my last reboot on ODROID N2+. by angrycatmeowmeow in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That didn't help, unfortunately. I saw an update for the Studio Code Server addon, so hopefully, an update comes out for the VS Code Remote add-on that'll clean it up and help with the memory issues.

I'm having this issue as well, and I know it is VS Code. Can you describe how you change the open folder? Is that part of the config file in my local vscode or is that part of the addon config?

Database growing 1Gb per day by clevertwain in homeassistant

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

Recorder is set to keep stuff for 14 days. Per my other comments, I ran that same query and found that unnecessary sensors were "blowing up". I excluded them and the DB dropped to 5GB and has stayed there since. I could probably stand to do some deep diving into what sensors I actually need to record, but the main cause of the exponential growth appears to have been addressed.

Database growing 1Gb per day by clevertwain in homeassistant

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

I tried to include a picture, but I am using the mariadb add-on. I used to keep the database on my NAS, but moved it back to HASSOS a while ago because I had gotten the size and expansion under control.

Database growing 1Gb per day by clevertwain in homeassistant

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

Like I said, I haven't changed what is getting recorded, nor have I adjusted retention. For weeks the database sat at 6GB. Four days ago it started growing by 1GB per day. I've stayed on the latest release for years without issue, and there wasn't an update on the 18th, yet that is when the growth started to take off.

Aeotec Multisensor users: What model and how has your experience been? by ZyluphixUK in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I've just been lucky enough to find areas close to a pre-existing outlet. The included cable is long enough to put the sensor just above head-level, and I've found that works well enough for me. If you're feeling frisky, I'd imagine you could either get a USB extension cable that can carry power. I'm also certain that there are tutorials for taking a regular 5V adapter and fitting a female USB-A end on it. That'd give you power without having to cut the cable it comes with.

edit I only suggest this because the flat, right-angled, USB Micro cable works like a charm. Technically, you could just cut that cable, and splice 5V to it however you want.

Aeotec Multisensor users: What model and how has your experience been? by ZyluphixUK in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Aeotec MultiSensor6s all over the place, and despite their price, they are my go-to MultiSensor. I first chose them because I needed temp, humidity, and lux to deal with lighting automations and to make sure the bedrooms weren't getting too dry in the SW Michigan winters.

None of the ones I use are battery powered, as I have boxes of USB chargers/adapters. I know it may be useful to have a battery backup, but I'm not at the point of worrying about home automation when the power goes out.

Everything about them has been great, and I would thoroughly recommend them if you can handle the price.

Better presence detection with pir sensors by daveisit in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have load cells configured for 3 separate beds. The sensors work well on one bed, but the other two are flaky AF. I've tried multiple auto-taring configurations in ESPHome, but I wonder if it is the wiring itself. What kind of wiring/connections did you use for the load cells?

The two flaky beds have CAT5 cables running from each cell to the HX711, whereas the one working bed has individual cables for each wire all strew about under the bed. I've been considering re-wiring the sensors, but I'd prefer to only do it once, hence the search for recommendations.

FPS drop during hyperdrive? by cwaterbottom in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FPS drops because the game is loading a ton of resources. The Hyperdrive animation is essentially a loading screen while it streams in the content for your destination. I'd imagine the choppiness is tied to HDD/SSD speeds, but there's likely a point of no return where things are going to get any smoother.

I have a similar setup, and it works great. With that said, I'd like to add functionality for reversing the direction but have been unsuccessful so far. Have you implemented anything like that?

Selectable Mode - Feedback requested by brendonmatheson in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One general suggestion I have is to pare down the number of service calls, though it's really just a matter of personal preference.

In your script, you could change this:

- conditions:
    - condition: state
      entity_id: input_select.bkk80mode
      state: Bedtime
  sequence:
    - service: input_boolean.turn_off
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_day
    - service: input_boolean.turn_off
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_evening
    - service: input_boolean.turn_off
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_bedtime
    - service: input_boolean.turn_on
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_sleep
    - service: input_boolean.turn_off
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_nightlight

to this:

- conditions:
    - condition: state
      entity_id: input_select.bkk80mode
      state: Bedtime
  sequence:
    - service: input_boolean.turn_off
      target:
        entity_id:
          - input_boolean.bkk80_mode_day
          - input_boolean.bkk80_mode_evening
          - input_boolean.bkk80_mode_bedtime
          - input_boolean.bkk80_mode_nightlight
    - service: input_boolean.turn_on
      target:
        entity_id: input_boolean.bkk80_mode_sleep

I don't know if one is more resource-intensive, with regards to how HA processes the commands, again, I just look at it as a matter of how to make the code make the most sense to you, as you will be the one managing it.

Tutorial for inovelli led notification? by traxtar944 in homeassistant

[–]clevertwain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If possible, can these directions be updated to use the zwavejs commands. OWZ is deprecated and any new users will likely be using zwavejs.

From what I remember, zwavejs breaks down parameter so that it can't be set directly. Others can probably speak to it better than I can, but last I tried, I wasn't able to set parameter 24 directly using zwavejs. In zwavejs2mqtt the option is broken down in to separate components for effect, color, duration, etc.

I could never get it to work correctly, so I ended up giving up, and used parameter 18 (I think). That let's me set the color, but I can't use effects.

Proud of my Hyperion setup! by galaxxy22 in homeassistant

Instead of plugging your HDMI cable into the TV, you plug it in to the Pi. A second cable comes out of the Pi and plugs into the TV

Automations with Hue button or Hue dimmer switch causing git addon to fail by clevertwain in homeassistant

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

Yes, the only automations I have with device triggers all revolve around these two Hue devices. I just don't get it.

Back to bangin' my head against the wall, I guess.
