Wyze Motion Sensor & IFTTT to play a specific sound?
AYL_Brian replied to Town Tech's topic in Starter Q's
I would actually suggest using Tasker with this. That'll be tighter automation that should work more consistently and not have you deal with things like "default apps". The other option is if you have something like SmartThings, you could actually use a Sonos or a Bose speaker to play out a sound or a song from that service. Even just statements for a Text to Speech.- 1 reply

Ok, so to take this further...is there a way to reference hex codes within our voice assistants or SmartThings now?

That's a really smart way to narrow down the timelines. Love this Larry. That way your smart home tech that goes with your Christmas decorations and comes out the following year with the rest of it.

Any idea why Zwave locks are more expensive than Zigbee
AYL_Brian replied to TonyT's topic in General Discussion
I think there's such a range of pricing right now Tony...I'm not sure there's a specific reason right now. In general, Z-Wave licensing seems to push devices up from about $10 to $20-$30...or even $40, but in the higher pricing ranges things tend to even out. What I will tell you about Z-Wave is that every single home panel out there today that works with a security system provider...is Z-Wave. So in lots of cases...they're just versions of those.- 1 reply

Hey @Lordy - So you should be able to do this within your automation. If you're just using the Lighting automation, you can set (what is technically known as a deadband) for 15 minutes. Smartapps -> Smart Lighting -> Pick your automation -> Turn off after Motion Stops -> Set 15 minutes. Now since you're creating this slow rise to 30-40% you probably have something more complex. Still.... Within the new app base automations, once you've turned on a light, you can set an Auto Turn Off. Just go back into that automation in the new app and you'll see it and can set a 15 minute time frame. 🙂

Tough one actually. Have a screenshot you can upload of both? It should be -> Start pairing ability with Nest Hub Max -> Go to app -> Choose Nest Hub Max -> Complete pairing process You could have to choose the headset as the default speaker, but it should just work...
