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.
I have to set it up again along with my server, but the room my birds live in at my old home would slowly open the curtains in the morning, slowly fade in the room light, fade in the full spectrum bulbs, then do it all in reverse for their bedtime.
Just to give an idea what I use it for based on my Home Dashboard
Office is under remodel which is why the sensors are offline.
What card are you using for your room overviews?
That’s 2 heading cards, one is set as the title and the other as subtitle. The title has the navigation option turned on to navigate to that room. And the subtitle is just filled with entities. I then use a entities card set with just the divider. It’s a messy way to do it but it was the best I could figure.
I have something similar, but I use Minimalistic Area Card
Thats what I’ve been using as well. On some of my cards it has some weird layout bugs (only on some viewing devices) which annoy me.

I originally installed it here to give me a bit more control over my solar/batteries - doing some calculations on how much to charge and at what rate overnight. Then I added charging up during free electricity times. Then saving sessions came along. Then I decided Predbat might be better than my Barbie calculations, so I got that set up.
In the meantime I ended up adding any device I could to it.
Have fun!
I wish I had the ability to do that but my inverter is pretty locked down from what I have gathered so far
Which one is it?
6000xp. I can do a few things via solar assistant, but it seems HA is read only. I’d love to be able to set up a routine that does a quick charge of there is a severe weather alert.
I use it to automate my lights and heating
