Looking for a WiFi enabled security camera setup (probably want 6 cameras total?) for *outdoors* usage, that covers nighttime.

Ideally, very minimal setup/effort. And would be great if they were compatible with @homeassistant #HomeAssistant

Not looking to spend a fortune, so would be pleased to hear about AliExpress style deals.

Anyone got any recommendations?

By day, I am a lead site reliability engineer in a global cyber security company, Forcepoint. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix & Grafana Labs and do some weird experiments with them. Welcome to my blog about the project.

Anyone more experience with the #BME680 sensor (temp / humidity / pressure / air quality)

I installed one yesterday and today morning it made a jump to a wrong value (off by 12C / 250 hPa) and stayed there. Reboot of the wemos d1 did do nothing, power off / on solved it.

Anyone an idea?

(It looks like a sawtooth pattern but it is indeed the exactly same value which the #OpenHAB then does not report, a misconfiguration i know where but did not get to fixing it. )

I'm thinking about this for home energy monitoring that doesn't ship my home data off site!

Does anybody have any experience with https://iotawatt.com/ ?
