integration VS SonoffLAN

I have HACS[0] installed in my Docker image, I use it for exactly one integration and the initial setup seemed a little dodgy but it's been pain-free for a couple of years now.

Yeah! So first, get HACS if you don’t already have it (https://hacs.xyz), then the custom Tesla integration (https://github.com/alandtse/tesla) - side note: you’ll need to be able to get a refresh token for your account (iOS app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/auth-app-for-tesla/id1552058613)… once you have the integration setup, create an automation. It should trigger when your vehicle tracker enters home zone and you can set device > myQ to open. Lmk if you need more help or have questions

Adaptive lighting is not a default for Home Assistant. It's an addon. You can install it through HACS (which is an addon itself) https://hacs.xyz/

Once you have that, you can also install a lot of additional services that would require separate docker containers from the Addon Store (like PiHole) or HACS, which is where you'll get all the unofficially supported integrations. Frigate is an option in the latter, so I don't think you need a separate PC application, unless it's just to view.

Yup! There's a community integration you can install called Alexa Media Player. The easiest way to install it is by using HACS.

There's also an extended 'store' called HACS (Home Assistant Community Store) which basically has third-party, but still FOSS so you can audit the code, integrations which further expand. https://hacs.xyz/

If you're stuck on the Sonoff Micro as you seem to be (they are pretty cool and cheap as chips so I get it) it runs off the eWeLink app but there's a Sonoff add-on for Home Assistant in HACS here https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN that makes it work locally, but it does need to be added via the app first.

This is the HACS available integration with HA that I'm using: https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN

You plug it in and set it up to go on/off whenever you want. That model comes with monitoring aka it can see how much current is going through it. Then you use something like https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN with Home Assistant and setup a specific automation. e.g. if watts usage is > X, then do Y. yadda yadda.

I can recommend these together with the sonoff zigbee bridge using the custom integration sonoffLAN https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN.

And for the node-red direct connection, I haven't tried that. I use AlexIT's SonoffLAN to connect between my Sonoff Basics and Minis to HassOS without connecting to the cloud.

Using this thing https://github.com/AlexxIT/SonoffLAN I got it all working without tasmota! Well except that currently the zibgee bulb is only on/off but perhaps that can be sorted. So no need to flash anything in order to try it out at least.
