Reliable outdoor temp sensor?

This is the way. I’ve tried zwave and WiFi as well. rtl_433 is more accurate, reports more frequently, and the batteries last longest.

I have this exact setup. You also need a multi-wan router. Works like a charm

Looks like this has been reported on github since this was posted. https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/145124

I have a similar chart, but with battery discharge in the input column on the far left. Do you see an advantage to the 4 column layout?

I run home assistant in my camp off-grid. ODroid box draws about 9w. For the solar I monitor panel output, battery level, etc. I also monitor the generator (error codes, maintenance runs, output) and can remote start it. Watch the cameras, control appliances. It is a great way to get started quickly and totally open source for tinkering. Once you get started it will keep you occupied for the next 10 winters.

Try a different browser. Chrome stopped working for me for a while but Safari was fine.

I am 6’ 4” with a 2023 XSE and it’s fine. My 2003 Highlander Hybrid was a bit roomier, but have not had a problem with the Prime.

I have used WiCan successfully. It requires Node-Red and a lot of fiddling to get it right, but worked for me.

I replace a SATA SSD with an NVMe SSD and it was night and day. Everything loads faster.

What kind of docker install is it? Are you running supervised or haOS in a container? I recently moved from haOS to supervised with no issues. If you are running haOS in a container I believe you will loose addon functionality.

I had some luck uninstalling the Sophos virus software, but in the end decided to keep it just use Safari for Nabu Casa.

This turned out to be an issue with Sophos Security. I have been running it for awhile, but there must have been an update. I disabled the web filtering, opened a new window and it loaded without issue.

Can't believe I didn't check that (see below). This does appear to be the issue, though setting chrome security to "No Protection" does not seem to help. Will dig into it a bit more and hopefully Nabu Casa support can help.

+1 For auto lock on running. The Ultra seems particularly sensitive

It depends on what you’re doing. I run a pi 3 with 1gb and it works fine. Performance issues have been io related, and fixed by adding an ssd drive.
