Recently did this and yes it’s a pain. I don’t know if it’s going to help until next time we change phones, but what I did this time was name the device after the person, rather than the phone model.

The idea being that I can delete the old device in the future and replace it with the new device, named the same. That way I don’t have to change the device name in each automation every time. Hopefully that made sense. But I still haven’t tested it in reality.

Exactly, it was a crappy stop gap solution.

So a game could release an “update” with less content and charge for it, and that would be ok to call a DLC, because they charged for it?

Yet they still get around it through sound mixing. Any regulations against using jingles or having ads interrupt what you’re watching?

I hardly watch it either. Just found it funny all the complaints above could be applied to what free to air tv has been doing for decades.

Sounds like you haven’t watched a lot of free to air tv haha

Yeah I still use their temp sensors and they seem to work fine. The door/window sensors seem to work ok too, but for the most part I’ve just swapped over to Aqara for anything new I’ve bought.

Yeah I gave up with them and went with Aqara ones. I just gradually replaced all the Sonoff motion sensors.

The Hue motion sensors are great, but quite expensive. I’ve found the Aqara ones to be best value for money. Haven’t had many issues with them.

Yeah I have been. But have a mix of apex and mini graph. Was going to migrate them all to apex and noticed it hasn’t been updated in years. Didn’t want to migrate everything and then have it stop working in a future home assistant update. Could be worrying about nothing though.

The only other thing I’ve noticed is that it’s quite power hungry compared to mini graph, albeit it having more functionality.

I don’t know, I haven’t used Grafana.

The event is being held 4 Oct, so shouldn’t be much longer.

What is/are Moto Flashlight and Camera gestures? And what phone do you now have?

Thanks heaps for that. At the moment I’m relying on my Enlighten app login. Will check them out.

Mine has an integration which is handy (enphase). But it doesn’t tell me my grid usage. I’m trying to calculate it by taking my total consumption and subtracting my solar production. I think it roughly gives me the right overall number.

The problem is I can’t seem to get how much I’m feeding back into the grid. I might be able to work it out with some sort of calculation.

I might DM you about the P1, as it sounds like that might do the job.

Nice one. My system has that with its integration which is good. I’m yet to put it into a graph. The part missing from mine is working out how much I’m using from the grid.

It could be worth cross posting this to [email protected]

As long as it’s not LEGOs I can get behind that.
