I use zigbee mqtt Which of course integrates with mosquito broker.
But I tied in my ecowitt weather station data via mqtt into the broker so I have it in HA. I did this with weewx . There's an mqtt add-on
I also integrated my blue-iris NVR in to mqtt for motion detection, notifications for cameras.
Life360 integration to help automate things based on who's home
I use esphome and have a bunch of sensors/devices. I track whole house power utilization, I have temp sensors on my HVAC to I can watch all its performance stats.
Here's my ugly drawing that tracks inside/outside/basement temps, geothermal water loop temps, in/out furnace air temps, water heater state along with both it and the furnace realtime watts usage.
This has been sitting in my inbox and I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to draw the diagram. It made this a great comment to come back to now that I have my HA up and running.
Glad it was useful! My Ms paint skills are amazing aren't they :)
