3-Way Dimming without the cloud! I show the hallway 3 way light that was in dire need of dimming at night from our motion activated lights.  All of the Tasmota rules and links to wiring diagrams are included below. Enjoy!

The LOHAS LED Bulbs utilize dual channels of warm white and cool white LEDs on the MY9231/MY9291 LED drivers.  We show in ESPHome how to solve this issue with a custom component.  All of the sample configurations used in the video can be found at the GitHub link below.  The Anoop bulb is a dual channel PWM light shown in Tasmota.  We also show how to easily configure the device using the new copy and paste templates of Tasmota.

Do you use an electric dryer and need a solution to send voice notifications when the cycle is complete?  Let's build a simple non-invasive DIY sensor that monitors the electrical draw from the dryer using a Wemos D1/NodeMCU, a couple resistors, capacitor and a split core current transformer.  You can also apply this same project to many other electrical monitoring projects in the home.

Wemos D1 Mini
10µF Capacitor
10k Resistors
Preformed Jumpers

How to configure both ESPHome & Tasmota with 2 smart lighting options.  Both of these devices utilize the MY9291 LED Driver inside.  After using the easy Tuya Convert process to flash custom firmware we show how to configure each light in Home Assistant for MQTT/API Local Control without the cloud.

I built another multisensor for the bedroom and I decided to change up a few components.  Dive in and take a step by step approach to build it with Otto Winter's ESPHome software this time around as it's been a year since I built the initial Bruh Automation version.  ESPHome is easy to use and configure; No Arduino IDE, no coding, just a config file and the sensors wired up! 

Parts List Used 
NodeMCU
TSL2561 LUX Sensor  or Sensor#2
Jumper Wires
AM312 Motion Sensor
5mm Neopixel or  8mm Neopixel
DHT22 Temp/Humidity

Easy setup of wireless sensors utilizing the Sonoff 433mhz RF Bridge.  Custom MQTT topics and automations with Tasmota rules all self contained in the bridge.  We also check out the trigBoard from Kevin Darrah with deep sleep modes and custom sensors all from a battery powered ESP8266 based board.
