hello, i am using HA to automate some outdoor lamps. Each bulb is controlled by a sonoff basic (tasmota) configured as a MQTT switch in HA. i would also like to be alerted in case one of the bulbs stops working. Has anyone attempted something like this? the bulbs being used are standard dumb LED/CFL and cannot be replaced. 2 ways i can think of are 1. check light levels and 2. check current drawn. any ideas? thanks!
You can connect an BH1750 light sensor to the sonoff basic.
thanks! on it! will update
