I’m using a WH2650A weather station, and I believe it does not need an internet connection to work at all, and I have been able to connect it to HA locally.

Turn on the lights in the bedroom based on presence sensor, but only if the bed occupancy sensor detects no one is in bed.

This. I bought a few myself, but didn’t have time to put them together with ESP32/program them with ESPHome

PETG is pretty easy to print and has a higher temp resistance than PLA

Then why do a personnel taking of a product you haven’t used?

Just replace the nozzle. You can try using the cleaning filament in the future, I use it when I’m swapping filaments -especially when I change between different types.

Qidi Q1 Pro looks interesting

Probably a vase or something using vase mode

I am using a few of self-built assistants using https://github.com/formatBCE/Koala-Satellite/tree/main - which was heavily inspired and uses a lot of very similar hardware to HA Voice. I have to say my speakers turned out pretty great.

Some of the stuff doesn’t need that much building, and some of it makes your life better (and there’s no alternative available in the market), that it makes it worthwhile.

They’re pretty cheap for something you’re not ordering from China too. If not reliable they’re from Ikea, so good customer service and they’ll replace them if something breaks (had it happen with Somrig).

As for a rotary I’ve ordered and I’m going to try this one.

ESPHome is a really good thing to look into if you’re a bit more advanced user, and CYD is a steal for what it is (even with the resistive touch screen it has).

From Zigbee devices I’d highly recommend the ones from Ikea (Somrig, Styrbar, Symfonisk - depending on what you’re going to use it for), and there are a lot more on AliExpress.

Another route might be using ESPHome and program something like Cheap Yellow Display (5-10$ on AliExpress) with LVGL.

Have you tried drying it (even if it’s straight from the factory)?

How can I watch it if the piped proxy doesn’t work?
