Mine have always been a bit functional, and I'm curious what more creative people have achieved.

Anyone fancy showing off what they've put together? Feel free to blank out personal information, obviously.

And on another note, I'm now moderating this sub. Hi!
Let me know if there is anything you'd like to see added to the sidebar, I'm aiming to update it over the next few days.

I have this one on a wall mounted tablet.

  • Left column:
    • time and date
    • solar battery level
    • car battery level
    • solar production vs. load
    • camera of the entrance
  • Middle column:
    • current weather as measured by my weather station
    • forcast for today
    • list of open windows and doors
    • (not shown) any emergency warnings (storms, etc)
    • scheduled garbage collection for the different recycling types
  • Right column
    • warm water boiler control (override for the automation which turns it on only in the morning)
    • current temperature in the boiler
    • turn on/off the car charger (until I come around to automate it)
    • List of devices that need their battery replaced
    • rain radar

These are the most important values to be shown in the hallway. There are other dashboards for other situations....

I like the low battery panel. I might copy that. I have a general overview over all batteries, but it didn't occur to me that I could filter the values and show only the ones needing replacement.

Hej, could you share what kind of solar integration you use? I'm struggling to find a solar solution that integrates well with hass

Not OP, but take a look at Open Energy Monitor - I use EmonPi which is a Raspberry Pi based system with current detection sensors

Uses the Emoncms Integration to read the data into HA.

You can also embed it's own webUI into HA with a webcard
