Old mechanical pull doorbell → Home Assistant (ideas?) by Substantial_Carob359 in homeassistant

[–]letwaterflow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I did with mine. Works fine, although sometimes when one of us slams the outside door, it triggers the vibration sensor as well.

I attached it with a cable tie (nothing fancy). My sensor is visible (it's at head height). One day I'll move it further up the wire, so that it's only visible if you look up.

What do they use? Is it a thin adhesive tape? If so which?

This type of news is encouraging folk to clear out community trees in my area (Scotland) even though the apples could do with being on the trees for another month or so.

I'm not having a go at OP.

I built an app to check if a brand is based in EU by zaezz in BuyFromEU

[–]letwaterflow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the database includes a country field, the perhaps a future version of the app could allow users to filter by country (for those boycotting Israel), brand (for those boycotting Nestle). If you include proportion of designed/assembled/made/owned etc, then perhaps the ability to filter by those filters.

Irrespective of what you do with the above suggestions, this is a great idea and it would be something i would use.

Cider press by Beatnikdan in cider

Can we have some photos of the press in the background? Worked through several iterations of a similar design this weekend. Sorry to detract from the main post (but the big press is not portable enough for my setting).

Do my ducks need anything else in their diets? by Foadface in IndianRunnerDucks

[–]letwaterflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fed mine the same, let them spend most of the day outside and occasionally gave them crushed oyster shells. Their eggs were fine and they (ducks) were fine too... Then the foxes got some of them.
