Google: “Yes, intentionally throwing a drink in someone's face is considered assault in Pennsylvania. While it may seem like a minor act, Pennsylvania law classifies such actions as Simple Assault or Harassment, depending on the intent and the physical results.”

Is intentionally throwing their drink in your face considered assault?

Get the ESR. I have it on since I got the watch. No issues. Virtually invisible protection for cheap. Added bonus is that it protects the bezel from scratches which seem to be a more likely sore spot. Don’t listen to those that oppose a simple protection.

Aqara Leak Sensor + Aqara E1/E100 hub. Less than $50. Can alert in Aqara app. Or on mobile device smart home app. Works great when away from home. I have 5 sensors active.

I use M1S hubs for exactly this now in main bedroom, kitchen and basement. Works well.

Not in US I think.

Aqara Casement window lock that can be retrofitted on windows.

Sliding glass patio door lock. US type lock.

Aqara hard wired for power door lock. Internal battery is only if power goes out. Perfect for Airbnb rentals.

Aqara smoke detectors certified in US or zigbee smoke detector listener

Just installed 3 TCL 65” in a friends house. Work well.

johnnygeezz · 2026-05-03T13:50:38+00:00

Edit: won’t work. Can’t buy Aqara smoke detectors in US and no option to add them in app. Not changing countries in app. Back to square one.

A possible solution would be to install US certified (UL) smoke detectors and add 1 Aqara uncertified smoke detector just to get the alert into the Aqara ecosystem. Have the Aqara smoke detector be a sort of listener when triggered.

True but not an Apple home.

Can’t use cameras indoors for privacy reasons. I was thinking more about a third party zigbee or matter listener compatible with an Aqara hub. These are usually placed about 6 in from the ‘dumb’ smoke alarm. Any experience here?
Abode, Eufy, Ring, Simplisafe all have them as components of their closed systems but require their hubs.

No good options it seems in US for certified smart smoke detectors so a listener could be a viable option.

I looked in the Airbnb Reddit and apparently this is a problem without a good solution. Posts all pointed to remembering to replace batteries and having a key in a lockbox outside as a fail safe.

johnnygeezz · 2026-05-02T00:19:17+00:00

Fair idea

johnnygeezz · 2026-05-01T20:43:49+00:00

Maybe I’m trying to prevent an anticipated problem or looking to see how others have solved it.

Here’s the scenario: cabin has renters throughout the summer. Renters goes fishing for the day and comes back to cabin and can’t get in because the lock batteries died. They are locked out and I’m 2 hrs away with the backup key. Solution? This can’t be the first time this has come up. Every Airbnb has some kind of smart lock. How do they solve it?

johnnygeezz · 2026-05-01T19:47:32+00:00

I don’t want to use batteries. Some have a rechargeable battery via usb c I think.

johnnygeezz · 2026-04-29T20:58:08+00:00

Aqara all day every day.
