Mig: Kører med LED-pærer og smartplugs derhjemme for at spare på strømmen

Også mig: Sætter en maskine til at sluge 90kW og går fra den i en time for en test.

Smartplugs und Grundlast bereits abgezogen... Das bleibt übrig und wird gespeichert. @alpensichtung.bsky.social ich finds brutal, für so ein kleines Konstrukt 🥳🌞⚡

Score!

I have worked how to use @home-assistant.io to send ssh commands to a Raspberry Pi.

So now I can automate power down on my Pis, using ssh to shutdown and then turn off the Matter smartplugs they're connected to.

Restart is simply turning the smartplug back on.

Honestly pretty cool.

What about an endless chain of Alexa enabled smartplugs to tell to turn off

I truly wish for a version that is local and is just smart enough for timers/alarms and the commands for my few lights that are on smartplugs. (Hands full or having difficulty getting up from bed (such as post surgery) makes those useful for SOME lights.)

🔥 DEAL OF THE DAY: You can snag four Matter smartplugs with built-in night lights for less than $8.50 each, which is a great deal. #affiliate

One of our smartplugs broke so we might as well put it there. The function to power on and off does not work any longer. Letting power through constantly. Since we buy smartplugs on packs of four returning one would mean returning four.

no-name wifi cloud smart plugs << tplink wifi smartplugs << zigbee smartplugs << wifi+bt+ble smartplugs where their factory firmware has an embedded JS runtime for you to define and run in-device scripts🤯

Shelly Script Language Features | Shelly Technical Documentation
Shelly Scripts run on a modified version of Espruino. While the previous JS interpreter running on Shelly supported a subset of JavaScript, Espruino interpreter is closer to the JavaScript standard.

Also got some Homekit-ready power-measuring smartplugs arriving tomorrow, which should open up some new avenues for automation.

This is a very good deal for TP-Link KASA SmartPlugs. You get 4 of them for under $20 right now for #CyberMonday! These come in handy for controlling lights & any other electronics up to 15amp's 110v. I use them all over my house! 👍 amzn.to/49hvvOa

Luckily Apple's HomePod Minis make a good Matter hub and interface into HA, Homey, Homekit, et al, releaving a lot of stress.

I have been moving my smartplugs to Matter...

Do they make outdoor smartplugs that I can program to turn off at a specific wind gust level?

Asking for the ten foot inflatable my wife came home with.

Washing machine/dryer: to send a notification to your phone when it’s done. Particularly with modern resource efficient programs (which tend to take longer — if I put mine in Eco mode it’s a 4.5 hour wash) that’s not useless.

(I have mine on power monitoring smartplugs and are not itself connected)

I've continued working on my home 'In-House Display' as I am still waiting to get my @octopus.energy mini.

I've now added a screen where you can see which house items are leaching electricity.

This data is pulled from a little @raspberrypiorg.bsky.social Pi 5 running @home-assistant.io

Ah we have smartplugs in all our properties. We use Google Home to remotely turn on things—& Hive for heating too. Can't they just use the button on the smartplug if they don't have a phone or permission?

Ah, ok, jetzt – aber manchmal regnet es bei mir, während im Rest von Deutschland die Sonne weht.

Ich hatte noch keine Zeit mich mit den Smartplugs zu beschäftigen, die ich mit dem Speicher gekauft habe – da gibt es bestimmt (bald?) die Möglichkeit, mit Wetterdaten die WaMa automatisch zu starten.

I finally gave in to temptation and bought some of those wifi smartplugs that let you control what's plugged into them.

Turning my bedside lamp on and off with my phone is more entertaining than it should be.

I bought 7 of these #LocalBytes UK #smartplugs back in October 2021. Pre-flashed with #Tasmota (although I changed them to #ESPHome). The last one failed yesterday. Light loads. One failed dangerously (case melted). Rest stopped switching or just died. That's 100% failure rate in 3 years. #crap

Took a bit but it is done now. Home Assistant using the RESTful Api to push commands to the http server on Streamer.bot to enable the VST filter in OBS Studio. For we use when we run our AC at home, It runs in base of power draw of in one of our smartplugs.

One less thing to care.
