@bazcurtis@homeassistant@homeassistant@homeassistantinpills This one isn't the cheapest but isn't that expensive either. I think I have the older model. It's been really reliable in my kitchen, it detects motion and illuminance. Battery life has been great too, I think I've had it over a year without replacing. I just wish it had a magnetic base.

Anyone using #Mealie and #HomeAssistant?
I've spent some time creating an integration that mirrors the shopping lists and also creates a read-only calendar of the meal plan. Beta so things may break but if anyone wants to try it feedback is most appreciated.
Got my Chipolo ONE Point! First impressions: yep, it’s a little Bluetooth item tracker. 😁
Interestingly, it has a button just like the standard Chipolo ONE, but it doesn’t do anything after the initial pairing. No ring-your-phone feature or anything… I wonder if that’s something Google will add to the Find My Device network/spec later? Not a big deal, I almost exclusively trigger that accidentally on my Tiles. 😅
Yoooo this is genuinely really useful. The kitchen hub is right next to our key rack, so this tells me my keys are probably put away where they should be.
Spend some time updating the #zigbee2mqtt herdsman-converters three of my rather esoteric light fixtures use (and which broke after a z2m update about two months back and I just hadn't found the time yet).
#SmartHome is like a constantly changing model railway, but with the added benefit of impacting your day-to-day!
I have two choices to run Home Assistant on my future #Pi5. With HAOS and as a Docker container. My idea was initially HAOS, but the Pi5 will be equipped with an SSD, have 8GB and may be able to take on other tasks. That's why a OS Lite 64 bit might be more flexible. Are there any major advantages to HAOS (apart from being efficient with resources)?
@holgerschurig
I have some RasPi running here, under continuous load or on/off. Actually, without any major issues. The advantage is that they are easy to replace. The current HA project has an SSD in it, the SD card is not used. 1000 Ethernet is also quite enough.
For a real mini server or NAS, a NUC would definitely be better, but it's a smaller project.
But I'm just switching back to HAOS, addons are not that complicated, I've seen. 🤔😅
@beandev running it as a container makes using addons very difficult.
HAOS is a very good solution and allows you to install many other apps as addons, which then just run as containers. So you can still use the free capacity.
The only other way I would recommend is Proxmox, then you can run whatever VMs you want in parallel to HAOS and assign it however much resources HA and the addons need.
Installing HAOS on Proxmox is very easy: https://helper-scripts.com/scripts?id=Home+Assistant+OS
Ok, ich habe mich entschieden. Home Assistant kommt auf einen Raspberry Pi 5 (8GB) mit 256GB M.2 SSD. Argon Expansion Board und Gehäuse (diesmal nicht selbst gedruckt).
Ich möchte doch gerne mehr auf die dedizierte Lösung setzen. Das Synology NAS ist aus dem Support raus und ich möchte es etwas mehr aus dem Blickfeld des wilden Internets nehmen.
