Home Assistant

Got into a Baby tracker initially designed as a simple Dashboard and the reconstructed as a Home assistant Add On along with a custom built physical 3D printed trackpad to log all the baby events on the day, has been fun so far, even added display for reminders. Having a physical buttons has been a game changer and I have automations in place for notifying both phones and posted it directly to the echo show in the kitchen. since the trackpad sends directly to the mosquito broker.

Did a bit of an "oops" a couple days back. Wanted to delete a device in ZHA so I could rejoin it where it will actually be in the network. Hamburger menue, delet, confirm. Did it so quickly I had missed the device and did the integration instead 😮.

A bit of googling and reading, trying to recover the ZHA setup. Seemed a little difficult and fraught with bad outcomes.

Ended up just selecting my HA daily backup and restoring to that. An hour later everything was back to normal.

The moral of the story is to have a backup done regularly. Either that or have a grief counsellor ready on speed-dial.

I have to admit, I panicked and restored from a day old backup. Lost a couple of changes and a day worth of energy data. Should've done another backup and attempted to repair without rolling back.

IKEA Mittzon standing desk integrated to Home Assistant (old.reddit.com)

This sort of escalated. I got myself an IKEA Mittzon motorized standing desk. Two memory positions and up / down buttons, nothing fancy. As usual, started to browse interwebs but found out IKEA uses some almost proprietary OEM (likely) controller with very little information decoded. Then I found this Github repo with everything I needed.

One EPS32-S3 Super mini later the table was controllable from Home Assistant. Good starting point.

Tips at this point:

Voltage, Ground and RX-pin can all be taken from ROL-controller (the "button-box"), no need to fiddle with anything else
Good soldering skills needed

Ok. Now it was controllable. Since I had some CYD 2.8" ESP32-2432S028 touchscreens around things quickly escalated, here's the result:

IKEA Mittzon HA-controller

Normal UP/Down-buttons, and both memory buttons. Added height-information since it was available, updates pretty much in real-time when table height is adjusted.

IKEA Mittzon HA-controller with added "set memory position"

One thing the integration was missing was the "set memory position" since the "M1" and "M2" buttons did not have hold, only momentary. So I made two more buttons to ROL-interface so those can then be controlled from controller with long press activating separate button.

In qbus-desk.yaml add these buttons to the end:

- platform: template

name: "Set M1"

icon: mdi:numeric-1-box

on_press:

- output.turn_on: btn_m1_out

- delay: 3200ms

- output.turn_off: btn_m1_out

- platform: template

name: "Set M2"

icon: mdi:numeric-2-box

on_press:

- output.turn_on: btn_m2_out

- delay: 3200ms

- output.turn_off: btn_m2_out

As seen, those keep the GPIO-output active for 3.2 seconds, the desk expects 3+ seconds for setting memory.

Also found a really functional and excellent desk mount for the display in Makerworld to print. Came out really great. Pic also shows a bit of the original controller pushed back, the ESP32-S3 under it and the power from ESP32-S3 to CYD. (Everything is powered from the ROL-controller, no extra power supplies needed.)

IKEA Mittzon HA-controller desk mount

Current functions in the controller:

Move desk up and down, moves as long as you press button, as original controller, beep when pressed
Short press on M1 and M2 moves table to set memory positions, beep when pressed, double beep and visual confirmation when reached, as original controller (minus audio)
Long press on M1 and M2 to store memory positions, beep when pressed, double beep and visual confirmation when reached, as original controller (minus audio)
Short press on height takes to another touchscreen page with some light controlling
Long press on height restarts touchscreen ESP32

This was a really fun two evening project, thought to share since there seems not to be too much IKEA Mittzon info out here.

Schiphol Runway Monitor — live runway usage + dashboard card (old.reddit.com)

Hi all,

I live in the Schiphol neighbourhood, and two things kept bugging me: I wanted to know whether the runway pointed at my house is currently in use, and when I head out for a walk in the Amsterdamse Bos I'd love to pick a moment when it's not directly under the flight path — so I can enjoy the walk without aircraft noise overhead. So I built this.

It's a custom integration (plus a companion Lovelace card) that shows which runways are currently in use at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM).

What it does

One sensor per runway (6 total), each showing not_in_use, inbound (landing), or outbound (takeoff)
Attributes for the active heading, so you can build precise automations
Inbound/outbound peak sensors (binary sensors) for Schiphol's busy periods
Updates every 5 minutes from public LVNL data — no API key needed
Fully UI-configurable, installable via HACS

Companion dashboard card

A separate Lovelace card draws a live SVG map of all six runways, color-coded by status, with little airplane icons pointing in the direction of traffic and peak indicators. Theme-aware, with an optional satellite background and a visual config editor.

Card preview

Example uses: get a notification when the runway closest to you starts being used for landings (and another when it stops) — or check before a walk in the Amsterdamse Bos whether the nearby runway is active.

Links

Integration: https://github.com/archofthings/ha-schiphol-runway-monitor
Dashboard card: https://github.com/archofthings/ha-schiphol-runway-card

Both install through HACS as custom repositories (the integration under Integrations, the card under Frontend — HACS requires them to be separate repos).

Feedback and issues welcome. Data comes from LVNL via dutchplanespotters.nl; not affiliated with LVNL or Schiphol.

Hi, whats you favorite HACS, Addons, blue prints. Idea is to have some inspiration. Maybe you have also some good additional items. Thanks. I personally use these:
