A bit of a frustrating day trying to get my ESP32 Atom Echo working with Home Assistant.

I used this page to flash it, it seems to work, but when it get to the wifi page it just spins looking for a network.

Any ideas what I can do? I can add it via ESPHome, but I assume that I assume that has wipes the Voice Control firmware.

I have a template sensor for calculating daily electricity costs. It uses this sensor - sensor.electricity\_import\_daily\_cost

I wrote about it here.

https://www.bazmac.me/blog/home-assistant-dashboard-card-daily-energy-cost

As you can see I set it to max which makes some sense. The problem is when prices go negative it won’t go down. I took the max off, but it still won’t go down. What have I missed?

Does anyone know why #HomeAssistant would give this error when trying to connect to @kate wonderful UK electricity generation site.

It connects to other sites.

Sorry if I am missing something, but why do I have two updates? Aren’t these the same thing?

Does anyone know how to add this Dashboard from the ESPAltherma page to Home Assistant? If not, has anyone other examples.

I started to build my Mum’s Home Assistant server yesterday. She didn’t know she needed one 😀.

While looking into having two Home Assistant servers on the same network while I built it, I found this. Linking two Home Assistant servers together in two locations.

Has anyone used #RemoteHomeAssistant. Any security or other feedback?

I have been playing with #HomeAssistant dashboards yet again. I find them fascinating.

I asked earlier is there was a way for a card to show live and maximum values at the same time. I want to see my #SolarPV watts compared to the max for the year. I came up with the below. I just with I could make that header a bit smaller. I will put the YAML in the next post in this thread 1/2

Just added a very simple entity card in #HomeAssistant. Nothing special in that, but it was so nice to just pop it in the place I wanted using sections.

I have a #HomeAssistant question. I have this bar-card below which shows the maximum watts so far this year for my solar panels. I would like it to show the live value and then a line or a shaded area for the maximum. Does anyone know how to do this. This of course could be the wrong card type to achieve this

Started to play with Sections in Home Assistant and I love it. Thanks to @madelena and the team at @[email protected] for this release. Some examples. Please read the alt text. The MacBook Air version would still have room for a 4th column, but it seems I am limited to three. Hopefully that can change or I am wrong.

I believe this is just the start. I can't wait for the next released. I have always found dashboard very frustrating.

Installing @[email protected] 20224.3.0. I am so looking forward to the new dashboard.

Yesterday I updated Home Assistant to 2024.2.1 and it stopped sending data to PVOutput. Has anyone else seen this?

I have a strange #EveEnergy plug issue. I have two of them, both upgraded to Matter. Both of them were added natively to #HomeAssistant.

They will randomly be unavailable, but not at the same time. Sometimes they will be unavailable at the same time and restarting my HomePod Mini stereo pair will bring them back. The bit I don’t understand is why one can be responsive and they other is not. Any thoughts?

Just picked up a few power monitoring Zigbee outlets from 3rdreality. Super easy to pair with @[email protected] via Zigbee2MQTT

My goal is to use them to monitor washing machine and dishwasher running states so I can signal when cycles are done.
