And everything else is linked in the description. Let me know if you have any questions about my smart garage!
Hey the link to the ceiling light goes to an unavailable item. Is that just because they aren’t released yet?
Local smart home, and local shirts for the win.
Hi Reed . Great vid as always. Was wondering how you got your automation to have a countdown timer displayed ? I have wanted that feature for ever !!
Hey Reed, will the T-shirts be available internationally? Now I could only see shipping within the US
@@rafaelcbfc99 If you want international shipping, just email me and I should be able to get it ordered and shipped to you. My email is reed [at] smarthomesolver.com
Small tip for the bike phone mount. You could stick an NFC tag to it and setup an automation that opens that dashboard when the tag is read by your phone. Then you don‘t need to always have the shortcut on your lockscreen.
Nice
Where is the phone holder link
When my kids were smaller we went with a van. Had every bell and whistle, 3 tvs, heated seats and steering wheel (not for Arizona lol). Anyway I would pull up to the school, pop the door and yell go go go and they would pretend they were seals jumping out of a chopper.
Great video, I have a ratgdo that I need to install.
OMG... My Father, God rest his sole... The tennis ball!!! I think he started doing this 20yrs ago... Good stuff. Love your channel.
Soul*
So glad the shirts are ready, I finished placing my order before I could even get to the end of the video. It's always great to have ways to support amazing channels like yours!
How did you set up the automations for Tesla and temperature when you are starting to head home? Any chance you can do an automation video on here or second channel how you set that up? I would be interested!
Wow! Nice garage automations! You think of everything!
The companies who own these smart home devices know literally everything about this guy’s life. When he’s home.
When he’s not home.
dude…
Reed, great automations ideas and execution! I use the MEROSS garage door opener, love it, cheap, easy to setup and just works!
Definitely add a mini split AC unit. Don't wanna bake in those AZ summers.
This is great, I'm currently building it a"smart" workshop/motorcycle garage
OMG, the tennis ball is the greatest idea! So simple and solves all problems!
Awesome Reed! My favorite part of the video was when you grabbed the hammer as a weapon 😆 great cinema! I hope you have 2xl shirts, they look great . . . shirt ordered 🙂
Thanks for sharing...great set up👍👍👍
Sick! Gave me a couple ideas thanks!
As always, love the channel. I must say that living in AZ for about nine years (lived in the desert in California before that), I've yet to see any rattlers here. I have an automation also that if motion is detected in my mud room before the door to the garage opens, the light turns on in the garage (if it's between a certain time or if my lux sensor on my Ambient says that it is below a certain value). If it detects no motion in the mud room when the door from the garage opens (I'm entering the home), it turns on the light to the mudroom. And, of course, you just have to add timers to the whole thing and timer restarts if it detects additional transit to/from the garage.
Love the video reed! I need to start getting some automations in my garage. I think you need an automation to tell you if you haven’t had “man cave” activated in the last 3 days to go out and get some alone time 😊
Reed I have some similar set ups in my garage. I have plenty of other man cave space living in a 5000 sq ft house but I use the garage for electronics projects and car work. I live in North Dakota so my automations include HEAT in the winter. I have a sonos connect amp tied to an old Bose Acoustomass audio system. Mine is mostly Alexa controlled no automations tied to presence - but I do have presence sensors out there for lights etc. I too have 3 MyQ GDOs but my hubitat integration for some reason is STILL working (shhhh).
That laser idea is awesome.
Good stuff Reed, thanks.
some great ideas here! Ive got a moiton sensor in the garage, mounted on the door. when its open, the sensor is over the middle of the garage, so it will close the garage after 10 minutes of inactivity. I can also override that with a boolean that is a condition on the garage closing, so i can easily disable the automation if i need to. then if the override switch is on for an hour without motion, i get an actionable notification that i can close the garage door and turn the automation back on with one touch.
Great video and nice garage automations !
I got my shirt in about a week, and yes,, they are SUPER comfy!
I love the laser in the garage.
Hey bro. I do follow you. Been following you for the past year now, so you've actually helped me figure out half of the motion sensors that I have in my home. I went with the zigbee but the reason for this message is to help you what I had done before I got my electric vehicle is. I'm a licensed electrician and I live in the state of Texas but what I've had done was I installed exhaust fans in my garage in the ceiling that would blow the heat from inside the garage cuz my garage face is west so the exhaust fans blow the heat out of the garage into the attic. I also went to home Depot and got the insulation kit to insulate the garage door to prevent that heat from the garage door heating up to coming into the garage to heat the air in the garage up. Hope it helps because you've helped me. Thank you and God bless
Nice one as usual 👍🏻
Hey, Reed:
"Garage Grabbers" should come with every home in AZ.
Here in the foothills of NoPho, my grabbers are used to pick up a seemingly endless supply of scorpions and desert centipedes that, according to the laws of nature, have an inalienable right to park in my garage on a nightly basis.
Thank you for sharing your garage automation. As the t-shirt axiom goes:
"Too much home automation is never enough."
Kind regards,
T.
Phoenix, AZ USA
looks really cool
Some great ideas here
Nice automations!
Always love your video, more information about the red light in the kitchen?
Hey reed! Can’t wait to buy some shirts!! Loved the video!
I'm transitioning away from Wyze as well and just purchased the Tapo c120 for my garage. Would love to see how you set the Home Assistant automation to keep your garage lights on when it detects motion.
For parking my Model Y in my garage, I mostly do it reverse and to have consistent spot I simply add line sticker on the my garage floor and when I can't no longer see it on my Model Y screen when backing, then it means I'm on my perfect spot. Very simple and no wiring needed. :D
Brother, we need to get you some cable management sponsors lol
It’s interesting on the way we think. Minus the work bench area that I don’t have we run the same typos of automations in the garage with a few exceptions. I run a Hardware differences are that I Wyze cam in the garage, I use Aqara for the door sensor to turn on the lights in the garage, and use one of my hallway lights to turn red when the garage is open. Also recently converted everything over to matter now, so the outlet that turns on the LED strip lights are LinkInD outlet with matter.
As for automations, garage opens (meross) when I come home, alarm disarms, door from the garage to the house unlocks, lights in the garage come on, but it also checks if the Govee house lights are on and if they are on then it changes the house lights, porch and driveway lights from a warm yellow dimmed to 100% bright daylight for visibility of the house outside and property. These reset back to the normal lighting after 1 min. Once I go inside if the garage is closed and I lock the dead old on the door then the garage lights turn off. Or they turn off with the sunrise script when the outdoor lights turn off. Oh, and I don’t do motion detectors./
But it just surprises me on the similarities in automations that we run with only slight differences.
Great video! Can you elaborate more on your garage light timer? How do you have that setup and working in HA?
Great ideas, yolink also has a good garage door sensor I use.
Thanks! I didn't know Yolink made one so that's great to hear. I'm not sure if it would work with the new garage doors with Security+ 2.0 and the yellow learn button.
I just use mine for an open/closed sensor to use in echo routines. I also have a light go on in the house and have a "good night" routine that gives me the status every night.@@SmartHomeSolver
Did I miss your video on installing 3 power walls? Awesome setup!!! Nothing you do is unnecessary!!!! :)
Curious how you did the automation with the Tesla to set home hvac temp when you enter home into nav. Is there an api for this with Tesla? I could think how to do it with my phone maybe with shortcuts.
Typically this is done through the thermostat. My nest does the same thing when I pull in the driveway. Haven’t been able to figure it out with the Tesla
Seconding this question, alongside the Wall Charger automation. What system powers these?
For garage opener, I recommend Tailwind. Easy to install and you can get the vehicle sensor which works almost 100% of the time (wife-approved).
Great video as always 👍 How do you reset the light timers? I switched to a mmWave sensor which kind of did the reset timer as a built in function.
Would you consider included in the description the specific interventions your using to achieve the automations?
Funny that I find this channel from looking for Smart Thermostat reviews and I recognize the host. Hey Reed, it's Trey Mortensen. Been a LONG time! Fun to see you guys are doing well after all these years!
If you go into hoodies, look into MADE blanks or ITC heavyweight hoodies. Great quality and somewhat affordable
You don't have to have the tesla gen3 charger attached to HASS if you have the tesla integration. You can use entities from the integration to tell if the car is plugged in. Also, you can setup the notification to let you know at a certain time each night if it's not plugged in by reporting the current range in the notification. That way, if your range is low, you know to go plug in.
Absolutely loved this video!! I just recently recently purchased a house that has a Four car attached Garage and this video has given me some really great ideas. Is it possible if I have any questions to reach out to? Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing back from you and whatever else you come up with.
If you power your laser with the light bulb socket via one of those screw in outlet things, it will only get power when the garage door is actuated and till the light would time out.
Nice!
@5:00 The Tesla automation comes with the new Tesla update already. Your Tesla will remind you to charge if battery is 50% lower that the target level you set
automation tip for the tesla wall connector: when temp gets too high, instead of notifying to stop charging just automatically reduce charging amps through commands to the tesla api. continues charging, but at a lower speed to reduce temps
Already dropping a like at 0:13 for Brock Bowers and my Dawgs! Okay, back to the video 🤣 I would love to see details on how your are integrating Tesla with your smart home (I'm guessing Home Assistant).
There are a couple of integrations but the best one is github.com/alandtse/tesla which gives a crazy amount of data. Also, I made a video on the second channel talking about some of it's features. ua-cam.com/video/1BfPoeJru_c/v-deo.htmlsi=KPSbeTzSMM38KGFE I could definitely do more and that would be a fun video!
Link to red light (1:37)? Also, would love a breakdown of the 10-min motion countdown clock autom
I think that’s a HomeSeer HSM200, which has a link in the video description. Z-wave device, I’m trying to find a ZigBee based version of something similar.
@MichaelAlderete I think the thirdreality night light is what you are looking for, they have wifi an zigbee versions
@@davidcaliz8723 Holy moly! I've seen their products (I have the plug-in switches!), but I always spot the motion detector, which has the same _shape_ as the HomeSeer. Then I notice that it's battery powered, instead of mains powered like the HomeSeer, and I abandon it.
But the nightlight looks like it's exactly what I want: Zigbee-based, mains powered, Zigbee router/repeater capable, plus motion and colored light. The HomeSeer (Z-Wave) product form factor is terrific, slimmer and more unobtrusive. But the ThirdReality light is bigger and brighter, a night light instead of a status indicator. It's enough bigger, the light is useful even without smart home automations. (Though a lot more expensive than the cheap nightlights I have in key places today.)
I've just ordered one to test. Thank you!
@@davidcaliz8723 Thank you! I had run across their motion sensors, but those are battery operated, not mains powered. But I never saw the nightlight.
So, I ordered one of the nightlights. It's...larger than I expected or hoped. Not quite the slim, unobtrusive profile of the Z-wave version.
Still usable, but if they ever made a low-profile version, I'd buy 10 more.
What app do you use for the Tesla automation? Thanks for sharing.
Hi, I love the video tour of the garage. What is the workaround or alternate for SimpleCommand with Alexa?
Cool men, but I'm missing one thing in the garage-men cave mode, a mini-fridge with an automatic function that send you an alarm when you run out of beer🍻
With the laser automation you should make it so that if you also ignore vacation on your phone if you're cleaning the garage or something make sure it turns off when you do that
I recommend some cabling cleaning and rerouting.
My god houses in the USA are oversized. My apartment could fit in that garage. 😂
Not all. My home is 877 sqft 2 bed 1 bath 1 car garage.
Agreed! I never thought this though until after I moved out of the US.
Very nice ! Can you make a video to show how smart home work without wifi, and how to set up it to work well without ?
Could you set up the garage door to open partially for say Amazon deliveries to deter porch pirates? Maybe install a keypad outside so driver can access door opening, but only to slide package under and close a moment later.
Pretty sure that garage is bigger than my entire house… I am jealous!!
RATGDO is the best! have it on both my doors
Amazing video, very well executed so many things and definitely given me a lot of ideas.
One I have of my own I was wondering your thoughts on. I have a green and red LED light in my garage (separately purchased) but I want to have it green when the garage door is in operation, but then when my car is pulled in to where I want it to be, I want the green light to turn off and the red light to turn on. Any thoughts?
Dude always sets notifications through his phone, the while for a relative I configured their automation notifications to scream pre recorded voice lines by their late mom throughout the house speakers and they loved it.
The garage is on my list this summer to get up to speed. I have to install the Ratgdo's I bought last year (bloody chamberlin...).
How do you have your Ecobee setup? I have mine on auto and it gives me a range, not a single temp to set. Am I missing a setting, or are you switching it between heat and cool from Home Assistant?
Thanks for the vids!
Hello, are you able to share with us the automation used to turn on the shop lights?
Curious how all the electronics in the garage fair in the Arizona summer heat.
Awesome
Great video. What is the light you have to warn about an open garage door?
I hav the Liftmaster tied in with IFTT to my home alarm. When i set it at night, if the garage door is open it closes. Easy
Sometimes a mechanical solution is just as good, if not better than the smart tech solution… I have a 2”x1” strip of wood stuck to the floor, so that as I drive in, I feel the tyres rising up on this bit of wood and I know to stop. No wasted electricity, no risk of laser blindness!!
When you started talking about the sensor on your garage door from Ring, I was about to ask what security system you use (assuming with active monitoring), so it looks like you use Ring?
I get the minivan, but I couldn’t do it man haha! I insisted on the GMC Yukon XL Denali and easily the best decision I’ve made! I honestly like driving my Yukon more than my Model 3 😬😅
have you done a video about Home Assistant, is that your go to for home automations?
Reid which HACS integration do you use for your taco camera? There are two in the store that I can see the tapo:cameras control and just tapo controller. Thanks for the advice on the cameras. I have better beefier ones for outside that are IP but I wanted a few for indoors and it looks like the top of ones are a good solution for now
I went with this one github.com/JurajNyiri/HomeAssistant-Tapo-Control and yeah for inexpensive cameras they seem to work well!
Can you please expand on the integration of the tapo camera using hacks? What did you do to make this work?
There’s one easy solution for when you have to work in the garage and don’t want notifications or garage doors inadvertently closing automatically: set up a mode called “Garage.” And update all your garage automations and notifications to be ignore when conditions = Garage mode. The just set up a Voice trigger command via Google/Alexa to set home to Garage Mode.
Please share “red light indication- garaged left opened” thanks!
Hey! I'm wondering if I can use my Google Chromecast for things like playing music (even from third-party apps) and setting alarms? As a student, a Sonos is a bit out of my budget. Also, wouldn't it be cool to have a simple dashboard with a to-do list, clock, and other useful stuff? Any tips or experiences on how to do this? Excited to hear your thoughts! Love from Germany!
Hello, I have a question: How did you create the light timer where the light unit shows you the time and the status of the lamp? I would be very grateful if you could explain it or tell me if you show it in another video. Thank you very much for the videos.
Reed, i am looking for the automation to show and restart the timer every time you detect some kind of motion in the garage. I would appreciate if you can share it
+1
Question is what automation did you have running under your cap near the end of the video?
Question: What buttons do i use for a smart home? I'm thinking right now I want matter/thread switches so I can directly use home assistant to link them to output devices without a system in between. But I also want those switches to be wired, I also want them to be compatible with future switches. I don't want to replace wires if there will be a better switch out there or they break down and they don't exist anymore. I also want like half of my switches to have 4 buttons (or more). I want a few to have a dimming option. I also don't want them to use wifi so I dont overload my router. Where the hell do I start. What do you recommend?
Whoa. I just saw three powerwalls. I bet there is a video about those.
What is that basic plug-in red light? I've been looking for a simple visual cue, and that looks about right for me.
Do you use Frigate with Home Assistant or are you rolling Wyze cloud and something else? I was in the Reolink Eco System, then added outside Wyze but now have regrets as they are non RTSP proprietary.
Ive been hesitant on buying the tapo c120 for a little, and was wondering if you have been able to get it to work locally with home assistant... have you gotten it to work with rtsp?
do you ever release your automations? im curious on the timer for the garage lights
Cool
Can you set up an automation that reminds you.to.stay hydrated if you are going on a road trip?
I feel like myQis the simplest set up. There’s no wires and all that complication you just connect it wirelessly and effortlessly and they have those automations and warnings about the garage door left open and all that etc… built into their app organically
Its locked down. Thats the downside. Some people (including me) take the effort to solder wires to Tuya smart plugs to install custom local firmware that doesnt even have an app.
How do you have the lights on for 10 minutes with every motion, i thoughts it was with a delay, but then I saw the timer on the entity and that confused me a lot
can you please explain how you do automations with the smart tv i really want to do it on my tv thanks btw
Can you post the yaml for the resetting timer for the garage light automation?
How are the new cameras working? I would like to get rid of my Wyze cameras and get something that offers more automation in HA.
The HomeSeer HSM200 looks like a neat device, but I don’t have z-wave. I don’t suppose there’s a ZigBee version of something like it?
wow!!!!
What did you use to turn on the HVAC in your home when the Telsa is mapped to drive home? I want that.
Hey , just a thought, would it be possible to connect the laser parking indicator to a proximity sensor on your cars rather than tied up to your garage door. The kids might be playing with the garage door open.
