Re: Are we done for the year?
I guess I'm happy it paid for the costs of my smartplugs the last couple years and then some. There is some convenience factor to tell my Alexa device to turn off the bedroom light at night. There appears to be a zero percent chance of having to file this in my 2019 taxes at this point like the past 2 years. If I had… -
Re: TP-Link KP200 Smart Outlet help
IFTTT will do it (OhmConnect service trigger, TP-LinkKasa service action). Best to also use the Kasa app to redundantly turn the fridge ON on a schedule, at say 10:00 pm as if it's the latest endtime you'd expect re an OhmHour. -
Re: ecobee Thermostat Support
If you're fairly technical, I would suggest checking out their IFTTT integration. That's been pretty reliable for me. -
Re: Where can I send my receipts to replace food from failed Freezer
@brightbq Sorry that you lost the contents of your freezer, but to minimize the risk to any critical load behind a tp-link (or any smart plug) such as a fridge/freezer, I strongly suggest you set a manual schedule to turn ON the tp-link during a non Ohmhour window. For example I set a manual schedule to turn ON my fridge… -
Nest thermostats - Skipped: Check Load
Hi, I’ve been having the following problem with my Nest thermostats: Even though my Nest thermostats and cameras show as connected in the Nest app or the Nest website, they intermittently show as “Skipped: Check Load” in “My devices” on OhmConnect… This problem can last from a few minutes to a couple of days, as far as I… -
Re: Venstar thermostat is no longer supported?
@bobsimmo, just an idea, but if you have Alexa functionality, you might check and see if IFTTT can trigger Alexa by using the OhmConnect Service to trigger Alexa. Or, an easier approach might be to just use a TP-Link smartplug on your furnace to turn it off -- most of the time the furnace supplies power to the thermostat,… -
Re: Sengled light bulbs?
@brianandmichellesc, they are supported by IFTTT, so you should be able to make it work that way. I started an applet, but without a sengled bulb and an account, I couldn't finish creating it, but I'm pretty sure everything is there. -
Re: Can you work with the proprietary controller for a Fujitsu Heat Pump?
I just heard back from OhmConnect staff. They said they had no experience interfacing with high-efficiency heat pumps. That's unfortunate given the importance of high-effiency heat pumps in California's emission reduction plans. I'm still pestering them to say whether or not they can talk to the Honeywell D6 controllers.… -
Re: Can OhmConnect with Sonnen battery / powerwall?
You have to have considerable DIY skills to integrate a Powerwall with OhmConnect, unfortunately. I've done it using IFTTT, but in order to do it I had to set up a web server and write some code that talks o the local Powerwall web interface.
