Nice. Just installed HA yesterday to monitor my solar panels and my emporia energy monitors. I have no idea what else to do with it.

I turned a $20 Mr Coffee in to an automated, autoshutoff masterpiece with a Shelly plug and home assistant.

It starts brewing 15m before the lights slowly ramp on in the morning, or if we're up early because of my kid, when I slap the smart button next to the bed. It also handles my living room curtains.

Currently working through an automated mold management system (robovac, air filters and quality sensors). I live on a tropical island, so this is super important, especially if you're not running aircon 24/7 because you don't want an $900 utility bill.
