2026.8 and Cloudflared

2026.8 and Cloudflared?

Just a quick service announcement. If you upgrade to 2026.8 and decide to remove port 8123 (which is now possible in the new update) and replace it with port 80, while also using Cloudflared, you'll need to go into Tunnels > Routes and update it to http://homeassistant:80

Refoss

Hi!

I wanted to have a little more details about my energy usage, because I have a lot of untracked power consumption. So I investigated a bit, and it turns out that Refoss EM06P could help me.

And I just want to show how easy it was to setup. The 6 clamps goes to what ever appliances you want to survey (I had to use 2 claps for my hotplates in the kitchen because they apparently use 2 phases). Lucky for me I had a breaker that was available but I think it can piggy-back of an existing breaker.

So now I have a more detailed overview (untracked isnt showing). Nice!!

High WAF by the way! And I actually thought that the dryer (green) was using more power than it is.

I ran in to a couple of 'gotcha's':

The offical Refoss integration for HA apparently doesn't support the device being in a IoT network, so I had to use the Meross Lan via HACS. And stupid me was thinking that my Refoss account could login to the Meross integration, but it cant - so after creating a Meross account and setting everyting up again, I had data in HA.

Anyway, I just wanted to "show and tell".

TikTok og teenagere

I mangel af bedre sted at slå det her op, så er det lige den her Reddit det kommer til at gå ud over.

​

Jeg bruger ikke TikTok. Og det gør jeg ikke af den grund at jeg har indtryk af at man har en lidt lemfældig tilgang til datasikkerhed og det her med at det er en kinesisk app osv. Jeg bryder mig heller ikke om at jeg kan læse at der er en mere umodereret adgang til upassende videoer for teenagere (selvmord, kriminalitet, krig).

​

Men jeg har svært ved at få min teenager til at forstå det, og jeg har lyst til at smide håndklædet i ringen ifht at lade min teenager få det. Men det strider bare så meget i mod hvad jeg selv står for. Jeg arbejder selv i IT branchen, og tildels også med sikkerhed, så det er utroligt svært at være i hvis jeg skulle give lov til det.

​

Hvad gør andre fædre med samme dilemma?

​

Og igen, jeg beklager at det her ikke er et typisk indslag i den her Reddit.

Finally found a use case for NFC tags

When I scan this tag, I have created an automation that looks at which one of my EVs that is connected to the charger, and then it manually starts charging that car, and then of course it also writes a message to my phone about what it is doing, etc. If there is no car connected, I get a notification.

I have had a couple of tags laying around for several years, and didnt really have a good idea for what to use them for.

Anyway... Just for inspiration. Have a nice weekend.
