      Hey @mfalkvidd were you able to get mysensors nodes to send data to thingsboard? If so, I'm interested to know how you did that. Wondering if thingsboard can be configured as a controller for mysensors. Thanks!

    • Combine a controller and a gateway in a raspberry pi

      Hi guys,

      I was wondering if it's possible to use a raspberry pi to be both a controller and a gateway at the same time. Specifically thinking of using hass.io as the controller.

      Has anyone tried this?

      Thanks.

      @yveaux is it like an accelerometer? Like the ADXL345?

      @dbemowsk it's actually a rubber chain like. I read your post. I have the same issue currently I have a reed switch at the top and the door sometimes slides past the switch.

    • Garage door status sensors ideas

      Hi guys,

      Happy New Year! I'm new here and really excited about the work done here.

      I'm working on building a garage door opener. I'm trying to find a sensor to detect if the garage door is open or closed. I don't want to use a reed switch as I want it to be wireless. Basically my sensor will connect using the Rf24l01 to the gateway. The gateway is connected to the garage opener via a relay.

      Any ideas of what sensors I could use to detect the status of the garage door?

      I looked at a tilt sensor but it doesn't help with 90 degree angles, it detects 0 and 180 degrees.

      Thanks!
