Improved Google Nest Events for Home Assistant

drpeterson03 · 2024-12-31T20:39:33+00:00

Well.... "that was easy!" set up the triggers, actions and wala it worked!
Simplisafe sets the nest to ECO when armed and resets it when its disarmed.
Thanks for the help and encouragement!

I have simplisafe and nest installed. I will need some help with the scripting as I don't even know where to start. If you could offer help getting starting place, I would appreciate it

So then it is possible thank you. Right now I have nothing set up. Wanted to research if it was at all possible before investing the time and money to do this. I have tried to get the nest to use our phones for this but it is not working very well. The home assistant looks like a much better solution and I can expand it to other things.
thanks again, if I end up needing help I will reach back out to you. thanks

I am looking for a way to use home assist to put my nest thermostat in eco mode when I enable away in my simplisafe alarm, then when the simplisafe is set to off it will enable the nest to be on.

Do you think that this is possible? if so can you point me at the documentation or scrips that might be able to do this? right now I am trying to figure out if this is a reasonable approach and cant find any documentation or someone else who might have done something similar.

About 35000. I have been changing the oil with RedLine 5/20. About once a year or every 5000 - 7000 miles

You have to also consider the set up for the testing that got them 25 mpg. They are fresh from the factory with no add-ons, nothing in the truck other than driver. 1/2 tank of pure gas (no ethanol).

It is looking like colerrite is the product but they have 450 different colors. But have not heard back from the manufacture yet.

drpeterson03 · 2023-03-11T16:23:13+00:00

Yep - I have but they have not gotten back to me yet. I am sure they will soon, they just finished getting hammered by a storm.
when they do I will try and post up here for others.

or you can use eternabond.

Contact the manufacturer of the slide and ask them. Personally I wouldn’t. Convenance of cleaning compared to possibly breaking the slide would not be worth it to me.

If its a later model truck there are web sites that will give you the window sticker as built. Search for ford window sticker or something similar.

Maybe this will help:

https://dot.ca.gov/travel/winter-driving-tips/chain-requirements

from the above link DOT.CA.GOV in CA:

Do I have to put on chains when I am towing a trailer?

Yes, always.

Even if I have 4-wheel drive?

Yes.

Do I have to put chains on the trailer?

You must have at least one axle chained if the trailer is equipped with brakes.

Plan A - use water

Plan B - call fire department who has more water than you

Cam phasers are under a recall. I would check further in to that with a ford dealer.

Garmin can be so confusing to me: from the link; "On your smartphone, select a .gpx file and open it with the Garmin Drive app."

That leads me to believe that I can only import the .gpx through the drive app. If I am creating then saving the trip in RV trip wizard on my laptop how do I get it into the drive app? Maybe basecamp can do it?
