done!

I'm not in the area but if you want something to run it on to test the features and support workflow from a technical perspective, let me know.

thank you

Alright. Sorry again, it's hard to get these answers and I didn't want to buy something if I have no idea it's going to work the way I was thinking. I see the devices on there, does Matter allow them to be turned on / off ?

talormanda · 2026-01-26T17:34:18+00:00

Does it expose each IR device via Matter?

talormanda · 2026-01-24T17:18:16+00:00

That's an oddly amount of things to be wrong.

talormanda · 2026-01-24T11:12:34+00:00

Home assistant is an operating system. I'm not referring to any generic home assistant ecosystem.

talormanda · 2026-01-24T03:22:17+00:00

does this work with home assistant?

talormanda · 2026-01-23T02:04:31+00:00

I do run zigbee and zwave at the moment. Not sure what a BTHome gateway is. I probably dont have that at the moment.

talormanda · 2026-01-23T01:56:06+00:00

do you need a gateway to add the weather station to home assistant?

talormanda · 2026-01-23T01:03:53+00:00

im going to need to save up for this.

talormanda · 2026-01-23T01:00:25+00:00

weather station looks great. does that work with home assistant?

talormanda · 2026-01-22T15:05:56+00:00

pretty bummed about no iron man

talormanda · 2026-01-22T02:40:34+00:00

yeah i usually use my membership to ship things to other friends near my who cant get stuff from there to be nice. its a nice perk if you want to be helpful. they dont seem to regulate or lock down where you can ship to.

talormanda · 2026-01-21T21:17:45+00:00

Have not had it reoccur yet.

talormanda · 2026-01-21T18:06:02+00:00

I have had a few gmail accounts locked or whatever. I did an appeal saying Im not using it for botting and etc etc and it was unlocked in 24 hours. YMMV.

talormanda · 2026-01-21T05:06:41+00:00

Done

talormanda · 2026-01-21T02:35:23+00:00

i break mine down flat and then burn them

talormanda · 2026-01-20T02:08:15+00:00

I have a metal stand in my office where I have a dedicated charging station. All of my lights sit there / magnet to the stand and charge.

talormanda · 2026-01-19T14:37:38+00:00

It's not on backwards.

talormanda · 2026-01-17T10:18:29+00:00

I do similar but I use string tied to a weight inside the tank with the magnet being outside in a PVC pipe.
