Mine have always been a bit functional, and I’m curious what more creative people have achieved.
Anyone fancy showing off what they’ve put together? Feel free to blank out personal information, obviously.
And on another note, I’m now moderating this sub. Hi!
Let me know if there is anything you’d like to see added to the sidebar, I’m aiming to update it over the next few days.
I have this
My “What’s the internet connection up to?” card:
My “Leaving the house” card:
It’s nice to compare the local predicted temperature, and local sensor.Drive time to work is a great idea!
Still want to add a few bits of info to it, but I’m pretty happy with the dashboard for my kitchen display that sits on top of the fridge where I can see it from the living room as well:
Uses the excellent LCARS theme by th3jesta via HACS.
Almost everything shown is just standard markdown cards, with minor tweaks by card-mod, with the exception of the 2 weather widgets shown (also via HACS):
I have this one on a wall mounted tablet.
- Left column:
- time and date
- solar battery level
- car battery level
- solar production vs. load
- camera of the entrance
- Middle column:
- current weather as measured by my weather station
- forcast for today
- list of open windows and doors
- (not shown) any emergency warnings (storms, etc)
- scheduled garbage collection for the different recycling types
- Right column
- warm water boiler control (override for the automation which turns it on only in the morning)
- current temperature in the boiler
- turn on/off the car charger (until I come around to automate it)
- List of devices that need their battery replaced
- rain radar
These are the most important values to be shown in the hallway. There are other dashboards for other situations…
I like the low battery panel. I might copy that. I have a general overview over all batteries, but it didn’t occur to me that I could filter the values and show only the ones needing replacement.
