Flooding the batteries with water is the best way to put out a lithium-ion battery fire.

Shelly relays for energy monitoring by shaun in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I'm running six Shelly Plug S and all working well with Home Assistant, but I could definitely play a bit more with the data it's drawing from them. Only issue to date was that I bought a new clothes iron and it would trip the plug as it was over the 2.5 kW the plug is rated for, might just be something to keep in mind. The in-wall relays may go higher, I'm not sure.

I'm not against it but I upvoted you because I think you have a fair position and expressed it honestly and in a completely reasonable way.

While everyone is watching the world stage and some are predicting WWIII, isn't there a good chance that the USA is getting close to some kind of civil war? by shaun in c/[email protected]

Esky? In NZ it's a chilly bin.

/dev/ttyUSB0 permission issues in HA container and Skyconnect by shaun in c/[email protected]

Glad you got it sorted, and thanks for sharing the solution. I might see if I can remove privileged from mine in that case.

/dev/ttyUSB0 permission issues in HA container and Skyconnect by shaun in c/[email protected]

I'm on x86, but the below relevant lines have mine working:

--privileged

--group-add keep-groups

--device /dev/ttyUSB0:/dev/ttyUSB0

I also had to add my user that runs the container to group "dialout" as that owns the ttyUSB0 device. Keep in mind to log out and back in with this user after adding the group to apply the change.

Hope that helps!
