I'd really like to see an indepth video on the Sofa Baton. I've been looking for something to replace the Logitech Harmony stuff and I just haven't found much that can touch it.
I have one too. Mine does Bluetooth and IR and it can also connect to a PC. When I have my fellow weebs over, I control the playback with it, for instance. Super useful tool!
The Sofa Baton X1S has been getting a lot of attention as a solid replacement for the Logitech Harmony remotes. It's designed to control up to 60 devices and has a more intuitive setup process compared to earlier models.
Nothing is as good as Harmony, including SofaBaton. But I don’t know if anything ever will be, just because the world has changed around remotes. With that said, the SofaBaton is definitely worth the money, just as long as you know it’s not Harmony.
@@alexander0the0gray I have the Harmony Ultimate and love it. I was so disappointed when I heard Logitech was getting out of the remote business. So, I'll run it until it dies but at some point I'll need to select a new remote and I know it'll never be as good as Logitech.
I already had the Hue bridge so that’s what I use. I’ve thought about consolidating to make it one big Zigbee network but I just ended up keeping the bridge set up in case I need it to test something for this channel.
But for those shouldn’t there be like something happening and then it goes off like maybe like a 10 second delay or just beeps and then if you don’t cancel the alarm within that time it’ll go off 2:38
Have you heard about the new update for the Aqara U300? It allows you to change the auto lock timing or completely disable it. It's a beta update though. I updated mines and disabled auto lock altogether. Now all my automations run through Home Assistant. I created new auto lock timers and schedules for them that I can enable and disable when I want.
Wow I feel special in that I had something before Reed did! :) I picked up a couple of the ThirdReality night lights a little while ago, and I think they're a great addition to a HomeAssistant setup. At night time, tying them in with the bed presence sensors built into our bed (SleepNumber) I can have these kick on if we get out of bed while it's overnight and dark to light the way. During the daytime, I use them as a visual indicator of activity over at my elderly mother's home through a slightly more sophisticated HA -> HA webhook setup. If Mom is up and moving around, the light in our house goes on green so that we can see that she's active and not laying in bed. Added bonus - as you said, they're a Zigbee repeater so it can help your mesh network too. All in all, price/value ratio is solid on that one.
@@SmartHomeSolver Thanks! Probably gonna try to find for Switzerland! It sucks that amazon doesnt have a feature where you can get the same product on different country store!
The problem with the Roborock vacuum is it uses dust bags. I have the Roborock S7+ with a dust bin that is bag less. I would upgrade but do not want the extra maintenance to change dust bags and search online to buy
Struggling with finding content on how to power the smart drivers for cabinet and baseboard lighting. Is there some type of transformer that can be used as power hub using low volt wire like thermostat wire?
Great Video. I'm actually very interested in that TrampleTek Blue pressure mat. I already have a Bed Occupancy sensor I made with a random mat off of Amazon and a ESP32, but because it'll false trigger all the time, I had to build in like a 3 second delay to avoid false triggers, like when rolling around on the bed. So my question is, does the blue pressure mat you showed have a built in delay or is it pretty instantaneous? Should I expect rolling around on bed will give false triggers?
1:07 is that soil moisture sensor capacitive? if so, that's good. conductive sensors have a corrosion problem. about leaving that tablet that's plugged in all the time: i have the chargers for my tablet and phone on smartplugs, controlled by automations that switch on at 50% and stop charging at 90%. except once a month they charge to 100%. thee only problem is that some of my smartplugs sometimes switch off when they should be on, and i can't find out why :-(
How did I not know about the Bond device? I have a ceiling fan I bought over 25 years ago - it was expensive when I bought it, so did not want to just replace it. However, it irks me that my voice assistant cannot control it. Ordered one - super excited. (Now, watch the fan die on me...)
LASER? For the past hour-and-a-half i've been trying to find this laser you have on your ceiling in your garage, but no luck. What brand and/or model is it, so I have something I can search for? Thanks! I did find a ton of lasers of course, but they are all battery powered, which makes it difficult to use in home automation.
Mine arrived today. It works really well, better than I had assumed watching your video. In the video is seems like a small dim red dot. In real life the dot is much much brighter. I did buy the model with 2-lasers (since it was almost the same price), but I do not think that will matter much in brightness. I'm very happy with this solution. Our garage isn't as big as yours and in order to fit both cars, parking has to be done with much precision. This works great!
Would love a video for the universal remote. Quick question in the meantime - can it work without its hub via home assistant with zigbee, etc? The standalone remote is about half the price as with the hub on Amazon
Whats going on with those screws for the smart lock? Normally clockwise rotation for screwing, anti-clockwise for unscrewing. Yours seem to be opposite.
Hi Reed, love your videos. I was wondering if you or one of your subscribers could suggest a solution for the following application. I live in the country and have a well. I would like to have an indication on my Home screen that would simply let me know when either the well pump or the house pressure pump are running. I tried using a small switch module but someone tried turning it on on the home app and it blew up because it wasn't rated for the pumps current draw. So I'd like to find something that is simply an indication with no remote control function. Any ideas?
There is also the very tiny ones I show in the video that have a case built on that are also very inexpensive shop.m5stack.com/products/atom-lite-esp32-development-kit
Yes, I would love it if you do an episode on your remote or possibly one about 3-D printing and building your own remote. Thank you for all you do for us and the time you invest in your channel.!!!!!!

Hey Reed, great video! I have the TrampleTek Blue mats, and they ARE amazing and great customer service! Out of curiosity, why do you need RATGDO and the Meross device? I have the RATGDO and love it.
Do any of the smart locks support type of doors where you need to first raise the door-handle to engage the multi-point lock system? Such doors are relatively common in Europe - and it's same stuff (mushroom shaped pins that slide to lock the opening in multiple points) as European windows that seems to have spread to US too (especially PVC windows). Except for doors you can then use key to really lock the door. If it's not locked with a key - well anyone from the outside can simply push door handle down to disengage the multi point lock system.
Here is one of my favorites: Color filament bulbs from WiZ. They are WiFi but afaik they are the only filament bulbs that can do cool white to warm white as well as color
Thanks. Got a few Philips sensors. Waiting on Inovelli presence switches but delayed to March 2025. Did not want to worry about plugging in anything like the Aqara presence sensors and your video reminded me of the Philips sensor I had at my old house. Also, plurged and got 3 of the mats. Been wanting to play with pressure sensors and seemed like a good choice as I did not want to "roll" my own ;)

+1 for sofa baton video! I’ve been using Logitech Harmony for a while but am looking for an alternative, especially one that integrates well with Home Assistant.
hello Reed, I have watched your videos for a long time. From your videos, your Home Automation choice is HomeAssistant. I have been unable to get HomeAssistant to work well for me, especially the automation. But I need some help with the EP32 and the Msr-2, a fantastic device. the power interface options that they offer are really great. Can you direct me to a GREAT Tutorial on all aspects of HomeAssistant? I'm running out of brain. I am also considering the Hubitat but that is for a different discussion.
Wow thanks for this video! Super informative and actually inspirational. Now I have a few home automation projects I can work on. Really exciting stuff!
We're building soon, what i'm missing are smoke detectors that are interconnected (if one goes of > the other one(s) go off too), also dimmers, buttons for in the wall (multile optional buttons). All the rest I liked ;) thanks a lot ! =)
With so many advances in ai I really wonder how long until something like sarah from eureka or Pat from Disney's smart house is going to become a whole package normal people can buy for their homes. Alexa is getting there but compared to the aforementioned ai's it's still pretty limited.
I found two used (but cleaned, refurbished and wiped) Surface Pro tablets for just over a hundred bucks each, they're becoming my HA dashboards. Browser in kiosk mode, boom.
Loving these rapid fire lists. Well, love everything so far, but these especially during Seasonal Sales. One smart device would be *Ahem* Couples personal intimate toys lol! Don't think it'll fit here as a family friendly channel.
Instead of the Sofabaton, find the Kickstarter for the Unfolded Circle Remote 3. Screen, fully local, programmable and with impeccable Home Assistant integration. Cheap? No. The best? Probably.
It's honestly infuriating how good the Hue motion sensora are. I got a couple of them early on in my home automation adventure, and even now that I'm on Home Assistant and using devices from dozens of brands, the Hue motion sensors have been more reliable than anything. I wish they were cheaper!

Do you use your Hue lights with the Hue bridge or do you connect them directly to Home Assistant over Zigbee?
I already had the Hue bridge so that’s what I use. I’ve thought about consolidating to make it one big Zigbee network but I just ended up keeping the bridge set up in case I need it to test something for this channel.
Can the plant sensor do the bluetooth tracking for room presence detection, thatd be convenient and good way to put away and handle plants
What is your recommendation for an outdoor lock. For a place that is very extreme on summers and winters.
I bought the less expensive SofaBaton and it’s not great. Is the more expensive one significantly better?
