well maybe not silliest but the funniest automation backfire i have. the silly part is the name.

i had an automation that called “MLG PRO” that would adjust all my living room lighting to green and purple and play a goofy THX-like sound when i woke up the xbox. what i didn’t realize is that the xbox updated itself nightly.

i happen to sleep in the living room as well. a couple of nights after i had set up the automation i was woken up by colorful lights and the custom sound at like 2am. i was certain the aliens had finally come to take me away. what a confusing way to wake up…

happy to help!

ZHA. Sensor model is 3RTHS0224Z and the ZigBee dingus is a SONOFF but I don’t know which model offhand

Late to the party but I use several from third reality for temp/humidity both indoor and out. They’re ZigBee based and I just have a little ZigBee dongle attached to my server. Basically no setup needed once the dongle is up. Just add batteries and then add them in HA.
