I've also got one for that. Reolink doorbell camera + RPi is what I'm hoping to get to work together.


My apartment has old radiators with manual temperature control, so my goal is to automate that with some temperature sensors + Zigbee radiator controllers. And liberating my Hue lights as they keep nagging that I'll soon need a cloud account to control my lights at home.


Nice I've been contemplating doing some home automation for heating, I have a dual fuel forced air furnaces, with only 1 thermostat and a fairly large house. There's a large temperature gradient between the floors, so I was thinking automate booster fans on the lower floor to pull more heat, and or cycle the recirculate fan when the temp gradient is above X.

That's exactly my plan!
