I’ve also done the gas bottle one, that was fun. Added an oled screen so I can see the weight/percentage at a glance
Apart from that, I’ve done:
- Kids’s Night lights
- The usual garage doors/driveway gates
- Some LED reading light strips for our guest room
- An “availability” light for my office door, which turns red when my webcam or mic is on, orange if my phone leaves the office, and green otherwise.
- Geyser temp sensor, which is used by NodeRed to determine, based on temp/time/solar battery/etc whether to turn on the geyser using my CBI Astute switch or not.
- Use a combination of CCTV object recognition and alarm zones to
– Turn on my patio lights after dark when motion is sensed (useful when arriving home at night, etc)
– Send me a notification if movement is sensed when the alarm is on, along with a picture from the relevant camera
– Alert me if a driveway gate/garage door has been left open, again with a pic, with option to close it
Planned:
- Garden lights
- Kitchen down lights and cupboard lights
- Garage car sensors
