I'm sure you aren't alone in that! Hope this helps somewhat 😅

Just a small note, that the Reolink E1 Pro, which was mentioned in the video, doesn't work with Home Assistant.

Just bought my first(well 2) ep1 set. Been looking for a few months, just never was in stock. I'm super pumped! Thanks man!!!

It's not black friday stuff, but IKEA has some seriously cheap Zigbee Trådfri bulbs now. In my local store, we're talking 6, 7, 8 euros each. With CRI90 so not trash light either. Would be better than most options at Amazon and the like, even vs discounts.

IKEA seem to be phasing out Tradfri, so grab them while you can! My local has already binned the Tradfri switch. I believe its to move away from single use CRXX batteries, and towards rechargeable AAA/AA.

It's better smart switches/relays than smart bulbs.

I've been testing some innr bulbs, to replace my ikea bulbs that have really bad coil whine, and so far they are really nice. At $40 I had to get another pair, thanks for the heads up.

I'll really look forward to a similar focus next year (please?), when i should have HomeAssistant fully setup. Its always been my preference, but not always an option. My robot cleaner has been EoL'd so your vacuum cleaner reference to Valetudo will be of further interest for purchasing decisions! Very interesting, as always, thanks!

I have just ordered your Everything Presence One. Thanks for the Black Friday discount and thanks for making the best presence sensor out there 🤗

How about ceiling mount EP, with 220v ac or poe power? Looks cleaner and, most probably, provide better performance for the PIR and mmwave sensors. Maybe a video comparing wall mount and ceiling mount could be useful.

Dreame vacuums also support Valetudo.

Hi. Thanks for sharing this list. I’m not seeing much in the way of smart white goods that play nice with home assistant. My focus is a dehumidifier. If you are able to give this topic some air time at some point I would hope it might promote the topic. Thanks again for this material.

Reolink cx410 is definitely worth a look whilst on offer

It is sadly not on sale for Black Friday, as far as I could find, but they are completely locally controller with Zigbee, the Danfoss Ally TRV's.

Someone should do a local EV wallbox review, as very few are local... I struggled a lot until I found one that works.

There aren't that many good options unfortunately that I've come across, Aqara wireless mini switch perhaps or the IKEA ZigBee remote?

The SwitchBot vacuums look interesting. It's sad that it seems they can't work cloud-free like the rest of the SwitchBot products. The Matic vacuum is coming, fully offline, hopefully it serves.

Anyone know of a dimmable zigbee smart switch/relay that works with regular bulbs? I think Aqara has a new H1 dimmer but it seems it only works with Aqara lights

Hi Lewis, doesn't this Aqara Door and Window Sensor T1, look like a much better option than the original sensor for only an extra £2.50 it has OTA updates and matter.. I've only seen it available direct from the aqara site... I've ordered some instead of the original, hope I'm not missing something? Great videos. 👍

Got really excited seeing the aqara roller shade driver, but for some reason, it is not available in the USA. Strange.

That sucks. Around here, there's no tax fee, but there is of course a VAT payment if you order from the UK. But any UK seller would of course sell without the UK VAT, in that case, so it would only add a few percentage points (UK VAT is 20% I think, here it's a little higher).

Because I keep looking at their pages and think that it might be a simple way to make multiple identical boards rather than messing with prototyping boards and wires, and then stop because I am sure I have no idea what I am doing. I was thinking of making up a standard board to put a D1 Mini on with connections to power etc for WLED lights and if I read it right I could add connections for PIRs etc fairly easily on them. But then again I could be reading things totally wrong and the $5 100mm board would not do it.
