Father's Day Sale on Sense Monitor and Govee Setup Tips

Hi all! I came across the Father’s Day sale on the Sense Home Energy Monitor and thought it might be a great gift for my dad. I’ve been curious about energy monitoring and wanted to hear from anyone who’s tried the Sense unit. Does it provide enough value on its own, without needing additional integrations? I’d love to know if it’s worth the investment!

Also, I’ve been working on my Govee setup and wanted to share a fun DIY project I’m planning. I’m adding a universal dimmer switch and a cloud fluff for my desk lights. The cloud fluff is going to make the LED strips look so much cooler! It’s a bit of a wait, but I think it’ll be worth it. Once everything is set up, I plan to share a series of DIYs with a dragon theme—I know it’s not the Year of the Dragon, but why wait, right? :smile:

Lastly, I’ve been accumulating Govee points and am curious about the shipping costs for rewards. Has anyone redeemed points recently and can share their experience? I’m aiming to reach the next tier soon and want to make sure I’m prepared!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and tips!
