I had horrible heartburn throughout my 20s and into my 30s. Mentioned it to every doctor. It would keep me up at night. It would hurt like a bitch and I'd often feel like i was throwing up. One new doctor was like, "you ever try a food allergen panel?"
Turns out, I'm allergic to caesin. It's a protein in pretty much all dairy. Stopped having dairy products and heartburn is 99% gone.
Moral of the story: heartburn can be caused by a tonne of reasons and it's hard to pinpoint if there's even something concrete to even point to
These are cool but I need something which will help my existing light switches too. I looked at aquara wall switches and they are nice but they seem to be around the $35-40 usd range
I have looked at these and I am seriously considering them especially with newly-announced ZigBee compatibility.. This is the trulyb"stealth" and I think cheapest option
automatic lights which follow us from bed to the toilet and back with minimal disturbance of each other and which return to pure dark without flipping a switch.
A hallway which have terrible switch placement. It has a 4-way switch and it leads to a room with another 3-way. 5 switches which should have been 3 can be consolidated using automation
I want automatic motion lights on stairs. Another annoying 3-way to get rid of
Kitchen has 9 light switches. I don't want to explain why, but it's not that big
TV area where scenes are important/want integratiom with other stuff
6.I want on/off automation on a few interior and all exterior lights for safety/security
Help me out here. I happen to own a few cync bulbs as a carryover from my last home.. The app has gotten better. But I feel like they have been extremely finicky. I am trying them on the custom integration and they are still finicky and seems like they break protocol. How do you get them to work over matter on HA?
I'll look into these. I hadn't really considered ZWave but I don't know enough about it not to do some more research. I picked ZigBee because we already have a tonne of Hue bulbs which I will slowly migrate to z2m.
You're right, the cost of a Zwave USB shouldn't be the deciding factor when the potential cost is in the hundreds for multiple switches.
I do know that I have neutral wires and have 2, 3, and 4-pole switches which I'm targeting for replacement
I've heard that these switches are the most "real" feeling smart switches but I worry about them needing Internet access and having them in HA is a hard requirement
I believe KASA need wifi to work. Or do they just work as dumb switches without a connection? I'm avoiding stuff which needs to communicate externally and would prefer a solution which won't add to my LAN
Edit: Scene support is not a priority. I need remote control so I can integrate sensors or scenes set up in HA
These are immediately going on the top of the list. Also, I'm going to adopt WAF as a metric immediately. Thank you.
Quick questions about owning these. Do the paddles stay in the center? Or do they click into a position? Also, do you find the click of switching them as loud as non-smart switches?
I'm in a similar situation and my strategy is to play the long game and win on convenience. I am giving my partner a curated HA dashboard as an option (vs the native apps). Once I feel like an integration is "production ready", I put it in the curated dashboard. That way, she can choose her preferred interaction method... with the hope that eventually she'd just prefer HA and the functionality would be relatively equal without the cloud stuff.
