Not Tasmotized--ESPHome!

Instructions are at https://gist.github.com/flaviut/93a1212c7b165c7674693a45ad52..., and I'm around in the discussion forums at https://github.com/emporia-vue-local/esphome/discussions to help out with getting this set up.

And I agree--it's really a great deal, and it's the only one of these products that comes with UL listing and can run open-source firmware.

I don’t know why but I was using “tasmotized” to mean ESPHome. I run both of them on various devices. Weird mix-up to make on my part :)

Thanks for the links! I think I might pull the trigger on one of these

I saw the same video, and had the same thoughts. I saw a comment mentioning flashing the Emporia with ESPHOME, of which I am a great fan. What I really like about that option is you can push all the logic to the "edge" device with ease (including hosting a webserver), or just merely expose the data and use e.g homeassistant to manage it. I'm sure you could probably also have it post the data directly to clickhouse if you want. All this to say esphome is really great and I love its flexibility.

I was planning to build something similar with esp32 until i found the emporia.

It's a bit of a hassle to install (don't think anything can be done about that) and I didn't really like the official ui, but it works great with home assistant / esphome. [0]

Yeah it's a steal for that price
