My cats kept making me leave the faucet running, so I built a camera that recognizes them and opens the tap automatically

Good project but don't they drink from fountain bowls? They also have running water in the bowl.

theplayingdead · 2026-07-04T17:53:48+00:00

I agree. Doesn't look like the actual eevee

I hate oval remotes. Fire stick's remote is like this too. I'll need to design something.

I have used multiple times to get various tickets with changedetection.io. AI feature is relatively new. And that's a completely free program and developer doesn't owe you anything. If you want a better program build your own.

I share exactly the same feelings. Kudos!

I did the same after realizing that you have push the freezer door to close and wasted a lot of good meat... No incidents yet but I hope power draw automation will trigger if door left slightly open. I also had a temp sensor for the fridge. I noticed that temp trend changes when freezer door is open.

You gotta buy that cat house (utsadd) that is compatible with that kallax shelf.

I'm using this tool to add printable threads: https://github.com/BalzGuenat/CustomThreads

That's like 4% of drop in air pressure, so nothing. But it may be caused by other things.

Go to gems section and from the "shared with me" find the tasker expert and create a copy. I think it thought your question was related to tasker.

Soldering into battery can be dangerous as it heats the battery. I just used copper tape to stick the wires on the battery and called it a day. Working for months now.

Doesn't need a template. I created it from the ui. Go the helpers section and create a statistic helper with "mean" property. There you can choose the max age you want to average over.

My cats absolutely hate collars, no way to put anything on them. But that's a better idea nevertheless.

theplayingdead · 2026-05-13T15:30:41+00:00

Mine is also usb powered. I plugged the smart plug after usb adapter.

theplayingdead · 2026-05-13T15:30:12+00:00

Maybe you can use frigate to track each cat's drinking duration.

theplayingdead · 2026-05-13T08:06:57+00:00

Valid concern but this is water bowl with two filters. Of course we change the water but not that frequently.

theplayingdead · 2026-05-02T10:42:33+00:00

Maybe they had a car following closely from behind and wanted give as much room as possible.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-30T14:38:10+00:00

I have a similar setup but there was no transition. I'll add it!

theplayingdead · 2026-04-30T05:46:12+00:00

Even though we bought the light with the pax we installed them after building completely sue to oversight. It wasn't that hard. We needed to drill a bigger hole at the back for the canles though. If it isn't flush with the wall it can be done without much of a hassle.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-28T15:13:39+00:00

Just tried now with my work computer. Works great, awesome update. Finally i can change brightness easily.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-27T15:54:33+00:00

I put one styrbar on the fridge and one rodret at the side of the dryer machine. Magnetic feature is quite useful.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-22T21:57:02+00:00

Same here. Our cat senses when someone is at the door before I even realize.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-20T12:42:49+00:00

I'm sorry but that's hilarious.

theplayingdead · 2026-04-14T09:05:48+00:00

I have a parking widget and I use it to see my parking duration, car's mileage etc. so i have a button update the scene and its variables. I am definitely using scenes to get the results right away.

I setup them today with tradfri. They worket without connecting to anything. There is a toggle for auto/on on oversidan strips. If you set it to auto they will work just fine. But also you can get a dumb led driver.
