After manufacturing more than 600 units, I think this can be called DIY. We print the casing as needed, then merge the circuit boards together. Now we are upgrading the firmware to a new version, and they have become a bunch of attributes.

Regardless, it's still exciting to keep making them, and the extra profit allows us to explore new things, such as the formaldehyde sensor, dust particle sensor, and a USB Bluetooth gateway that plugs into an outlet that we've just manufactured.

We will continue to manufacture them in our spare time, DIYing them in this fun way.

For those interested, you can buy them from our independent store: https://store.screek.io/products/1ms

We have experience shipping worldwide (we seem to be turning into a sensor merchant :)) and have experience diy over 7,000 DIY sensors. We DIY them in our spare time and will likely continue to do so, creating new things.

Original Title: I put together a full video on fully local AI voice capabilities / Home Assistant and I've ALSO open-sourced all my code relating to building short/long term memory modules + voice activated daisy chaining! :)

Hope this helps anyone who is looking at going fully local voice AI with HA!

It's pretty crazy that there's not 1 or 2 recommended tablets to buy. It seems there's really only 3 requirements..is at least 10 inches, is easily rootable so that fully kiosk can take full control, and is less than $200.

Firetablets are out the window as they can't be rooted. Samsung might lock down with Knox. Lenovo seems up in the air for root. Pixel tablet would be good if not for price.

Any ideas?

After years of living in this house, and having three boys, I finally got around to installing a dishwasher. I was so proud, I pulled a cabinet out and shifted some others down to make room, got it plumbed and plugged it into the outlet under the sink, forgetting that it's only powered when the light switch is on for the garbage disposal; so, I put my garbage disposal on a zigbee smart plug. It's been working great, until two weeks ago, when the power went out overnight. The linemen must have had some difficulty getting power restored, it flashed on and off 5-6 times in the span of 10 seconds, which put all the zigbee plugs around the house into pairing mode. When they go into pairing mode, they power their load on and off a couple of times. I'd just got the kids to go back to bed, they were freaked out by the power outage, so the garbage disposal turning itself on and off a few times right as they were falling back asleep sealed my fate to be awake with them for most of the rest of the night.

So...don't be like me. I just wanted to share my story, I'm sure others will find it as humorous as I (now) do. And no, I still haven't run a dedicated circuit for the garbage disposal.

My kids never turn on the vent when they take a shower. The vent is already connected to home assistant but what’s missing is a humidity sensor or another solution to turn on the vent and leave it on after.

Anyone has any suggestions?

I have searched around endlessly but there is only ever mixed or deprecated info out there. The ZHA network graph recently underwent a rewrite and I feel it’s even less understandable.

There is no legend, we now have dotted and solid lines of varying thickness . Colors are only shades of blue and gray now instead of red yellow etc.

Does anyone have a link to an actual explanation of how to interpret the graph?

What Home Assistant automations or smart devices that integrate with Home Assistant should I invest in for my home? I code for a living so I’m not afraid of more complex automations.

When we bought our house in 2023, my wife did some digging and found out who originally built it back in 2016. She contacted the builder to get the full set of house and site plans because she wanted to start figuring out furniture placement before we moved in.

At the time, she had no idea how helpful that would be for me.

I’ve since used those PDFs for just about everything in our smart home setup. Whether I’m planning where to put Zigbee routers, checking signal paths for Wi-Fi, or running Ethernet through walls, those plans have made the process way easier.

I wanted to share just how helpful floor plans can be, especially when paired with ChatGPT. By feeding the layout into a conversation, I’ve gotten genuinely useful advice on network layout, device placement, and how to avoid signal issues. It's like collaborating with a smart home planning assistant.

So in the end, my wife unknowingly helped build the foundation for our whole setup. If you’re buying or moving into a home, get your hands on the floor plans if you can. They’re more useful than I ever expected.

Curious as to what other animal/pet things people are automating.
