My partner just requested her first HA automation, finally. Liberation after a long struggle of her hating our Home Assistant setup for not being perfect (it's one long beta experiment right?).

Anyway the job was to stop her from having to get up in the middle of the night to turn off the ceiling fan above our bed (hot at night but cold in morning).

Shelly 1PMGEN4 installed in-line with the ceiling fan control switch.

Now the fan turns off automatically in the morning (checks bedroom temp sensor every 15 mins between 3am and 8am) and we also have a Sonoff smart button on the bedhead for manual control.

We made it.
