[1085.68 --> 1086.92] they've got the best supports. |
[1087.76 --> 1088.74] 24-7s. |
[1089.16 --> 1090.42] I mean, I wouldn't do it, |
[1090.56 --> 1092.26] but I think you could even call them on Christmas, |
[1092.36 --> 1093.42] and I think they'd answer the phone. |
[1095.32 --> 1095.76] Maniacs. |
[1096.46 --> 1097.02] You know? |
[1097.96 --> 1099.80] Maybe somebody gets paid extra special. |
[1100.28 --> 1101.98] Maybe they get Santa's cookies that day. |
[1101.98 --> 1103.22] I don't know what they do, |
[1103.82 --> 1106.02] but somehow Linode covers the gap. |
[1106.48 --> 1107.86] They've got great support, |
[1107.98 --> 1108.80] great performance, |
[1108.98 --> 1109.88] tons of options, |
[1110.00 --> 1110.98] a beautiful UI, |
[1111.08 --> 1112.32] a dashboard that tells you the info |
[1112.32 --> 1113.56] you need to know about your system |
[1113.56 --> 1115.12] right when you look at it, |
[1115.26 --> 1116.46] and so much more. |
[1116.96 --> 1117.60] But I suppose, |
[1117.74 --> 1118.82] why not put it over the top? |
[1119.52 --> 1120.26] You could support the show, |
[1120.78 --> 1121.40] keep us going, |
[1121.94 --> 1123.24] and get $100 in credit. |
[1123.60 --> 1125.90] That's linode.com slash ssh. |
[1125.90 --> 1129.80] So Christian writes in, |
[1130.02 --> 1131.84] my basement flooded last week, |
[1132.08 --> 1134.62] and I've been looking for the best |
[1134.62 --> 1137.06] leak detection sensor, |
[1137.44 --> 1138.72] and I was wondering if there's anything |
[1138.72 --> 1140.20] that either of you would recommend |
[1140.20 --> 1141.66] that's Wi-Fi based. |
[1142.00 --> 1144.96] I know there are some Zigbee and Z-Wave options, |
[1145.34 --> 1147.10] but specifically I'm hoping for Wi-Fi. |
[1147.56 --> 1148.28] Thanks, Christian. |
[1149.28 --> 1150.42] Ah, very good. |
[1150.74 --> 1152.72] I absolutely do recommend |
[1152.72 --> 1154.72] a few Z-Wave devices, |
[1155.16 --> 1156.22] but I, you know, |
[1156.30 --> 1157.22] I think I know of a, |
[1158.02 --> 1159.72] I'm not sure if it's Wi-Fi or not. |
[1160.22 --> 1161.22] Gosh, Wi-Fi, Alex, |
[1161.24 --> 1162.36] do you know any off the top of your head |
[1162.36 --> 1163.36] that are good Wi-Fi devices? |
[1163.50 --> 1163.92] I don't, |
[1163.98 --> 1165.52] and I think the problem with the Wi-Fi |
[1165.52 --> 1166.58] in that situation |
[1166.58 --> 1168.14] is just the energy usage. |
[1168.58 --> 1169.50] Unless you're going to leave |
[1169.50 --> 1171.46] the water sensor plugged in all the time, |
[1172.04 --> 1173.84] which, if it's a water sensor, |
[1174.58 --> 1176.28] you probably don't want to do. |
[1177.50 --> 1179.26] Wi-Fi is just too power hungry. |
[1179.26 --> 1182.80] I know that in my attic right now |
[1182.80 --> 1185.04] and underneath my air conditioning unit, |
[1185.36 --> 1186.62] I have one of those |
[1186.62 --> 1189.96] Aotec water leak sensors at Zigbee, |
[1190.24 --> 1191.76] and that just plugs straight into Home Assistant |
[1191.76 --> 1192.94] using the Con B2. |
[1193.06 --> 1193.82] That works perfect. |
[1194.38 --> 1195.74] That's the one I recommend |
[1195.74 --> 1198.06] if you are a Ring user. |
[1198.62 --> 1200.66] Ring actually makes a water sensor. |
[1201.16 --> 1201.98] That's Z-Wave, |
[1202.10 --> 1205.28] but Ring manages all the Z-Wave stuffs for you. |
[1205.54 --> 1206.50] So maybe that's easier. |
[1206.66 --> 1207.02] I don't know. |
[1207.02 --> 1209.58] But honestly, for this kind of thing, |
[1210.30 --> 1211.56] this, if you could, |
[1211.62 --> 1212.58] really is the chance |
[1212.58 --> 1214.48] to get into something like Z-Wave or Zigbee, |
[1214.68 --> 1215.32] get the stick, |
[1215.58 --> 1216.44] and do that kind of stuff. |
[1216.78 --> 1218.38] But if you know of |
[1218.38 --> 1220.36] a better way with Wi-Fi, |
[1220.48 --> 1221.36] I'd totally love to know, |
[1221.42 --> 1223.04] especially if it does work with Home Assistant. |
[1223.56 --> 1225.16] Let us know at selfhosted.show |
[1225.16 --> 1225.84] slash contact, |
[1225.98 --> 1226.58] or even better, |
[1227.00 --> 1227.86] send us a boost |
[1227.86 --> 1229.52] with a new podcast app |
[1229.52 --> 1231.04] that supports value for value |
[1231.04 --> 1232.46] at newpodcastapps.com. |
[1232.46 --> 1234.22] I thought we'd go for a little trip |
[1234.22 --> 1235.36] down memory lane here |
[1235.36 --> 1238.70] with some interesting Raspberry Pi projects. |
[1239.30 --> 1240.76] And one of my first ever |
[1240.76 --> 1242.80] Raspberry Pi projects use cases |
[1242.80 --> 1243.92] was actually, |
[1244.06 --> 1245.68] this was before I got the NVIDIA Shield, |
[1245.76 --> 1247.68] and I was still on the hunt |
[1247.68 --> 1250.42] for a media center PC. |
[1250.84 --> 1252.82] I used to have an actual computer |
[1252.82 --> 1254.60] as my home theater PC, |
[1254.74 --> 1255.98] like a madman. |
[1255.98 --> 1259.68] And along came the Raspberry Pi |
[1259.68 --> 1262.12] with its MPEG-2 hardware decoder. |
[1262.82 --> 1264.54] And I threw something called |
[1264.54 --> 1265.66] RaspbMC on it, |
