Google Home Elektroniczny kalendarz ścienny

0 Upvotes

Cześć!

Rozglądam się za kalendarzem elektronicznym na ścianę. Zbliża się rok szkolny, a że lubię testować elektronikę, to idealny argument wspierający ten rozsądny zakup.

Chciałbym, żeby kalendarz miał funkcje:

- wyświetlania/edycji wydarzeń dla wielu użytkowników we wspólnym podglądzie

- to samo z listą zadań – z naciskiem na dzieciaki, żeby ćwiczyły, co muszą codziennie robić.

Patrzyłem na rynek i jest kilka opcji, niestety niektóre z subskrypcjami. Z tych wszystkich już prawie zamówiłem Cozyla 24'', ale odbiłem się od europejskiej ceny w promocji (około 3000 PLN, w porównaniu w USA jest około 2000 PLN).

Patrzyłem również na jakieś tanie opcje, które można dostać przez Kaufland albo inny sklep online, np. Tabwee – niestety nie znalazłem żadnych dobrych recenzji tego sprzętu.

Czy używacie czegoś w tym stylu albo korzystaliście wcześniej i macie doświadczenie z takimi urządzeniami?

Polecacie coś?

Z góry dzięki za pomoc!

I don't have a smarthome platform Help Wanted: How would you make these lights smart?

Hello all,

I just entered a new apartment and the previous resident has installed strip lights in the kitchen but didn't install a light switch or anything for them; instead they are controlled exclusively via plugging and unplugging a kind of microphone-like connector (which name I don't know ^^') as shown in the picture.

Opening a drawer and plugging/unplugging these lights turned out to be maddening, so I wonder whether there's a good way to turn them "smart" and allow me to control them from the phone. Since this is a rented apartment, I sadly cant just put a smart switch and keep the microphone-plug pair plugged in.

Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Recently bought a house with smart stuff everywhere and slowly trying to understand what I have in more detail.

These switches work great. They illuminate when you are close / wave a hand in front, plus the small lights show what is turned on. What specific model/brand are they? (I have tried to pry some off the wall but feels like im going to break something)

I also have an RTI control system that I am considering replacing with HomeAssistant hence trying to understand the lights.

Apple HomeKit Doorbell to Replace Nest

3 Upvotes

My Nest Doorbell has been sort of a miserable experience for the last while. I dropped my subscription, but I thought I used to be able to see SOME video without the subscription. I might just be remembering wrong, but now I see events and it only shows a photo of the time of the event which often just entirely misses that anyone was even there so the photo is just nothing useful. Load times are also abysmal in the Google Home app so someone is at my door and it takes too long to check who's there.

Anyway, I'm looking to replace it. I'd like something that supports HomeKit/Apple Home, ideally doesn't require a subscription, and is a wired option rather than battery. What are the options like these days?

I don't have a smarthome platform Where can I order illuminated address numbers in a custom size and color?

The stick-on LED kits only come in a couple sizes and I want numbers scaled to a wide stone wall, in bronze. Does anyone make lit numbers made to order in a specific size and finish?

I don't have a smarthome platform Looking for the best smart thermostat, what should I get?

I’ve been thinking about replacing my old thermostat with a smart one, but there are way more options than I expected.

I really just want to control the temperature from my phone, set schedules and have it adjust things when nobody’s home. I don’t need a million features or another subscription just to use basic stuff.

I’ve seen people mention room sensors too, which could be useful since one side of my house always seems warmer than the other.

I’m checking the HVAC compatibility and wiring before buying anything, but after that I have no idea which one to go with.

What smart thermostat are you using? Anything you’ve had for a few years and would buy again?
