#Athom

After 10 years, the #utwente scale-up #Athom known for their smart-home brain #Homey that's sold around the world, got acquired for 80% by #LGElectronics!

I hope Homey will become THE mainstream privacy-first smart home assistant! Exciting innovation, engineered in #Enschede!

Emiel Nijssen:
"We remain committed to making Homey the best privacy-first smart home platform in the world, fueled by our love for a great user experience and our open approach to smart home."

Today I setup a @homeassistant Green at my parents’ house along with a handful of #Athom smart plugs & one Athom light switch. The Athom bits all run #Tasmota & communicate with #HomeAssistant via #MQTT. I’ve also given them a Nabu Casa subscription, connected their Alexa, and set each up with the companion app. They rely on satellite internet service that is only marginally better than bad DSL, so the local control is really beneficial. Tomorrow we’re going to try #AdGuard too.

Over the past 2-3 weeks I have been tinkering with #homeautomation using #opensource software. I am using #esphome and #homeassistant
In my latest video on #odysee I talk about my experience so far and demonstrate a few of the automatons that I have set up

Ya está aquí.
El enchufe #Athom viene preflasheado con #Tasmota para que no tengas que hacer prácticamente nada.
Configurar y utilizar.
