• What Automation are you most Proud of ?

  Then, I make a HomeKit automation that automatically (without any silly confirmation on my iPhone) switches my Home alert system status to Away when I am not at home (based on geofencing) and conversely, switched it to Disarmed when I come home. You would say: this is not possible, dumb Apple does not allow this with security devices. And you're right. That's why I circumvent this moron attitude by using a dummy switch in the middle. The geofencing Home automation controls the Switch On/Off status, and that virtual switch has its own automation that control the security system status. That way, it works! The HomeKit switch is in fact a cheap ESP8266 DIY board flashed with Home Accessory Architect (HAA) open-source firmware (esp-homekit-devices repo on GitHub). But such virtual switch can also be created with homebridge. Or you can use a true Homekit physical socket for example.

• Any possibility to update this smart switch

  But for homekit there seems to be this firmware: https://github.com/RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices

• Ceiling fan control (in-fan)
  1 project | /r/HomeKit | 15 May 2023

  I've had great experiences with the Sonoff iFan04-L with the Home Accessory Architect firmware -- I don't know if having to flash new firmware is a complete deal-breaker for you, but that combination of hardware and software is fantastic in my experience. I've installed two iFan04-L units with that firmware and have a third that I intend to install soon (while replacing knob and tube wiring to that particular fan). Flashing the bootstrap firmware is straightforward and quick with a USB UART device, after which there's some setup to do (enter wifi password and configuration script), and once that's done it's more or less a native HomeKit device for all intents and purposes.

• Are there any HomeKit in-line smart switches like this? Native or via Homebridge.

• Any HomeKit accessories for this?

  I replaced 2 of those with Sonoff switches that where flashed with raven to make them HomeKit compatible. https://github.com/RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices

• Need help to create JSON string, ESP8265 2 relays
  1 project | /r/tasmota | 16 Dec 2022

  Hello, I'm trying to build a smart socket with 2 channels (2 relays), I'm doing this with the help of a Wemos D1 Mini and the project https://github.com/RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices

• Magichome Lightbulb Upgrade

  RavenSystems HAA - Home Accessory Architect

• I built a HomeKit Temperature and Humidity sensor using ESP8266-01S and DHT20
  2 projects | /r/esp8266 | 23 Oct 2022

  I think you could achieve the same functionality with it without homebridge as a gateway: https://github.com/RavenSystem/esp-homekit-devices
