Those with IR should be able to control by handphone.

after another few months of waiting time, I finally received the new metal spool wheel for my motorized blinds. It works just a bit better than the plastic ones

ozak did you ordered one? received already?

Nice! bit expensive though. how is the functionality? able to program timer and schedules?
would be perfect if it works with the Amazon echo.

im only using alexa to on off tv, for other settings, too troublesome
need some coding i think

to channel up or down also possible, but u need to ask alexa to tell harmony xxxxxxxxx, and u need another smart home app in alexa skills

Can you share how is the experience?
looking to get the harmony hub to integrate with echo, since they already have a skill for it. Did you get it locally? can you share where?

Thanks!

Guys, anyone integrated the sonoff T1 to Amazon Echo? if it's a 3 gang switch, can the voice command control switch by switch? or it will on all 3 switch when you ask it to turn on?
Can configure each individual switch to different names on that one gang?
Thanks!

Hey guys and gals, just want to get some insight your fellow forummers who has sonoff running switches running at home, as I’m in the midst of starting a home Reno. I would like to get your input.

1. Do you have all your lights hooked up to sonoff wall switch?
2. Let’s say I have a 3gang wall switch (sonoff t1 uk), I know I can use them for lights, but is it possible to have it as a switch for ceiling fan? 2 lights and 1 fan on a 3gang wall switch (due to the 2a rating and max 600w/gang) so I’m not sure if it’s possiible.
3. Do you guys have a separate bypass switch if Incase the sonoff one goes haywire/spoil.?
4. What else do you hook up to your sonoff wall switch? (Get wanna get ideas)

I’m planning to have the home setup with google home, as I have purchased a couple of devices to play around.

Yes it's possible as a ceiling fan. Using it as such for a year already.

What's the easiest way to use Mi Sensors... to work with Sonoff without tempering much? HA seems very technical. Any easier way?

Why don't you try HA on a VM (Virtual Machine)? Very easy and if you screw up, just delete the VM.

I tried installing it on Windows.. stuck when discovering the devices couldn't even start HA.
Gave up

If all of them are using IR, better change to Broadlink RM Mini 3
blink.gif What devices?
The VM is a Hassio machine which use your Windows computer resources.
You just login on a browser to access the Hassio VM.

Bro some guidance here.
So from my windows machine, i'll need to install a virtual machine first right? any suggestion?
And then build Hassio on top of it ?
