Hello, as a HA noob, I’m wondering if there’s a way to manage multiple bluetooth devices, such as lights?
Some of these lights have speakers and cameras or some type of multiple purpose.
Currently using multiple apps on the phone is inconvenient and if HA can manage this somehow in 1 way, that would be a great solution.
It will depend on the device… you haven’t given any usable info to provide a decent answer.
Sorry.
As a noob, ummm…
Coordinator:
ZBDongle-P (previous ZBDongle-E constantly dropped out, not recommended)
Wireless connection: Zigbee 3.0
Input: 5V 100mA Max
FCC ID: 2APN5ZBD-P
30501028FA
Bluetooth device1:
LIFX LED light
MAC address: D0:73:D5:00:2E:8B (Serial number on side of bulb).
Name: BUL-11-A21E27-W
Bluetooth device2:
Bluetooth LED light/speaker
Bluetooth connection name: Speaker Light L2
No other details, how to find out?
Bluetooth deviceX:
wish list of controllable LED lights with some function integrated (sensors provide useful historical data/logs):
-
air sensor (concerned about carbon monoxide levels when engine cars rev past and poisonous gas wofts through the space)
-
camera with ptz
-
fun stuff like a toy spider drop on presence during halloween
-
microwave attack sensors (probably too late for that with head spins/explosion feel, tinnitus/ear ringing and smoke detector randomly going off)
-
motion control sensor, like ultraleap
-
natural gas in kitchen sensor (heard the fossil fuel (methane?) leaks even when turned off, potentially contributing to alzheimers)
-
presence detectors
-
smoke detectors
-
speaker
-
thermal image sensing/detectors
-
who knows what else the market offers?
Compatibility with HA, FOSS and maybe some sweet blockchain earnings?
I also have a Marmitek LW12 IN WALL LAMP MODULE.
Would this help to make the current white LED bulbs be ‘controllable’ from HA?
I have some colour bulbs, but they are only controlled individually from each individual app, very tiresome.
