Hello everyone, I’ve been diving into the world of smart home integration and wanted to share my experiences so far. I’ve managed to successfully integrate several devices from different brands, but I’ve also encountered some hurdles along the way. Let me walk you through what’s been working and what’s been a bit tricky.First off, I’ve been really impressed with the Wyze cameras I’ve set up around my home. They’ve been reliable and offer great value for the price. However, recently I noticed that all three of my Wyze Cam Outdoor V1 units suddenly went offline. I tried the usual troubleshooting steps like resetting the base and cameras, checking the app for updates, and ensuring they were charged. After reaching out to Wyze support, they mentioned that the V1 models are no longer in stock and offered a discount on the V2. I’m a bit concerned about the longevity of my current setup and whether I’ll need to replace them soon. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Wyze cameras, or do you have any tips for keeping them running smoothly?Another area I’ve been exploring is the KNX integration with openHAB. Setting up the KNX bridge was straightforward, but configuring the devices through the OH3 UI has been a bit of a puzzle. I’ve managed to get some lights working, but there are still some quirks, like the dimmer not switching to 100% brightness when using the switch element in the sitemap. I’ve spent hours pouring over logs and configuration files, but I’m still not entirely sure where the issue lies. If anyone has experience with KNX setups or similar issues, I’d love to hear your insights or troubleshooting tips.On the topic of lighting, I’ve been experimenting with Sylvania RGBW LED strips. They showed up in my SmartThings app as light bulbs, but I couldn’t control the color or brightness. After removing and re-adding them, they didn’t show up at all. I’m curious if others have had success with these strips in SmartThings or if there’s a specific workaround to get them synced properly.Lastly, I’ve been trying my hand at creating custom rules in openHAB. I’ve written a rule to trigger different lighting scenes based on the time of day and the presence of my phone. While the concept seems solid, it’s consistently triggering the morning ambiance regardless of the time. I’ve checked my conditions and transformations, but I’m still missing something. Any advice on refining my rule or debugging techniques would be greatly appreciated.Overall, I’m really enjoying the journey of building out my smart home, but there are definitely moments that test my patience. I’m grateful for communities like this where I can learn from others’ experiences and get help when I’m stuck. If anyone has advice, tips, or even just encouragement, I’d love to hear it!
