Nice!

This is such a neat idea! Did you have to use IPA or do any processing after it printed?

Absolutely love the sentiment and the action, but bro you’re jumping into the pool with actual clothes on??? Unhinged behavior.

That thermostat should work over WiFi and not use Thread so as long as your network supports Matter, you should be good. If it doesn’t support Matter, you can use the meross_lan integration.

I’m currently using a Meross thermostat as it was relatively cheap: https://shop.meross.com/collections/smart-thermostat/products/matter-smart-thermostat-mts300ma

Currently using the meross_lan (https://github.com/krahabb/meross_lan) integration to make it work because my LAN doesn’t support Matter.

I tried to use Shinobi as my PVR for a while but dealt with a lot of usability and stability issues. Switching to Frigate has been much better. Configuration can be a bit difficult but it’s rock solid and really great. Plus the home assistant integration is top notch. I’ve had a lot of luck with Amcrest cameras and also managed to use a cheap Tapo camera within my setup.
