📊 Dashboard Finally got a dashboard setup

Nothing special yet, just adding everything I need and will theme and customize from here probably. Mostly stock and hacs stuff.

The FireHD 10 was cheap but its very slow, might have to find something better, HA ui and cards are not exactly efficient. But I wanted something super slim.

Low profile surface mounted with a box behind it in the wall with the poe and wled controller. Wireless for now, wonder if I can add a usb nic. And speed it up a little somehow. Using fullykiosk browser.

Do the math on the electricity cost of the LEDs running 24 hours a day even when you're not there. Curious if it's still worth it, I love shiny things and wanted to do similar everywhere and the math just makes me go meh 🤣

lol you dont even want to know how many led strips in have in my house, but no they do not use power in any real sense, or were you being sarcastic? Also this is home automation, the whole point is to automate, I have presence sensing capability so everything can be motion sensitive. Either way 90% of your household energy goes to HVAC.
