[1634.48 --> 1638.42] Since they're watching live, I'd love to know, does it take USB power and can it do continuous?
[1638.42 --> 1640.72] Because if it does, I might pick that up.
[1641.18 --> 1643.22] No, it uses one of those little coin cell batteries.
[1643.58 --> 1645.00] I love the continuous data.
[1645.16 --> 1646.00] I really do.
[1646.18 --> 1649.66] I don't want hour gaps because what you get in the charts, for one thing, is like these
[1649.66 --> 1651.14] inorganic jumps.
[1651.70 --> 1656.40] And I really want to see, like, I immediately, it just, this was relevant just two weeks ago
[1656.40 --> 1656.74] for me.
[1657.04 --> 1660.56] I want to know immediately if the changes I have made are lowering the temperatures.
[1660.74 --> 1661.36] I can't wait.
[1661.60 --> 1667.16] So I'd love to try something Zigbee, though, that could be battery or USB and could give me
[1667.16 --> 1670.80] real-time data and has a direct integration, doesn't require MQTT.
[1671.02 --> 1672.92] If anybody knows, I'll try it here at the studio.
[1673.50 --> 1674.64] What are they using on Mars?
[1674.82 --> 1675.80] Can we get our hands on that?
[1676.22 --> 1678.66] They are using Zigbee on Mars.
[1678.88 --> 1680.76] I have an inkling that they are, yeah.
[1681.98 --> 1683.82] I bet they have temperature sensors, right?
[1683.82 --> 1685.04] That's what I'm saying.
[1685.28 --> 1686.28] We know some people.
[1686.54 --> 1687.78] We might be able to get samples.
[1688.42 --> 1688.92] Yeah, maybe.
[1689.40 --> 1689.76] Maybe.
[1689.88 --> 1690.88] We'll find out about that.
[1690.88 --> 1695.60] But if you wanted to use the device directly without Home Assistant and maybe just wanted
[1695.60 --> 1700.26] to use the app for the humidity and temperature sensor, or you're comfortable just using MQTT
[1700.26 --> 1704.50] or maybe replacing the firmware, these are really nice temperature sensors.
[1705.14 --> 1710.12] With the only caveat being, for me, they read a few degrees high continuously.
[1710.12 --> 1715.74] And maybe that's because of the temperature issues I mentioned, but I had temperature sensors
[1715.74 --> 1720.60] side by side, and the Shelly sometimes read as much as seven degrees hotter than the temperature
[1720.60 --> 1721.74] sensor right next to it.
[1722.36 --> 1722.42] Wow.
[1722.56 --> 1723.24] That is a lot.
[1723.58 --> 1725.38] So I'm holding up to the stream here.
[1725.58 --> 1729.40] This is an ESP8266 and a DHT22.
[1730.02 --> 1733.00] And this little setup here costs less than $10.
[1733.54 --> 1739.14] And all you need is a couple of jumper wires, honestly, and then it's powered through a micro USB
[1739.14 --> 1740.00] port on there.
[1740.76 --> 1745.36] And this stuff you can order from China, from AliExpress, you know, for a couple of
[1745.36 --> 1746.68] dollars a piece, honestly.
[1747.44 --> 1749.46] It's super cheap if you're willing to wait for the shipping.
[1750.22 --> 1754.46] So Chris, what I'm going to do, I'm going to make a few of these for you, and I'm going
[1754.46 --> 1757.64] to 3D print some cases, because I'm fed up of hearing you talk about it.
[1759.06 --> 1764.30] I'm going to 3D print this into a little case for you, and then we can use command strips,
[1764.94 --> 1768.68] ding ding, to put this on the wall of Lady Joops, and I'll make you a couple of these.
[1768.68 --> 1769.48] All right.
[1769.84 --> 1772.06] You can hand them to me at the JPL meetup.
[1772.14 --> 1773.16] Exactly what I was thinking.
[1773.56 --> 1774.46] Hey, that's great.
[1774.70 --> 1776.70] I'm hoping the case is going to be Levi-shaped.
[1776.92 --> 1777.70] Just putting that out there.
[1780.14 --> 1781.52] That's quite the print job, right?
[1781.52 --> 1783.62] Customer requirements are the worst.
[1785.26 --> 1786.50] Maybe it's the dog collar.
[1786.66 --> 1787.00] I don't know what's easier to print.
[1787.00 --> 1787.88] You're not even the customer.
[1788.40 --> 1790.32] I'm just advocating for the customer.
[1790.86 --> 1792.76] He does that kind of thing all the time, Alex.
[1792.80 --> 1793.58] You've got to watch out.
[1793.62 --> 1794.14] I know.
[1794.64 --> 1795.34] Scope creep.
[1795.34 --> 1797.34] Just super quickly, too.
[1797.44 --> 1798.94] I did try the Shelly Power.
[1799.44 --> 1803.54] Out of all the Shelly devices I have tried, this is the one.
[1804.16 --> 1805.66] This is a great device.
[1806.04 --> 1807.68] This is a great device.
[1808.16 --> 1809.40] This is my new smart plug.
[1809.72 --> 1810.72] Full stop right here.
[1811.10 --> 1815.02] Or the cloudfree.shop version, because maybe it's the same thing.
[1815.52 --> 1818.02] I really, really like this smart plug.
[1818.10 --> 1822.70] So much so that I have already installed one here in the studio, as well as one at home.
[1823.06 --> 1827.24] As I expected, it's just way better than the low-power devices, because it's always on.
[1827.30 --> 1828.88] It's plugged into your wall outlet, right?
[1829.38 --> 1831.40] And it doesn't have the low-power issues.
[1831.40 --> 1832.60] It's not a temperature sensor.
[1832.70 --> 1834.80] It doesn't need to sleep to make sure the sensor's right.
[1834.96 --> 1836.04] It just works.
[1836.18 --> 1837.10] You plug it in.
[1837.98 --> 1841.38] You join the little AP that it creates with your phone, or whatever you want, your laptop.
[1841.38 --> 1846.06] You can pull up the admin page at 192.168.33.1.
[1846.68 --> 1850.90] It's the same for all Shelly devices, which I really appreciate having set up a bunch of them now.
[1851.52 --> 1852.04] There you go.
[1852.08 --> 1853.78] Is that the cloudfree.shop version you got there?
[1854.16 --> 1855.40] This is the cloudfree one, yeah.
[1855.46 --> 1858.46] But I have a feeling your Shelly one is in the exact same housing.
[1858.66 --> 1859.34] Yeah, exactly.
[1859.44 --> 1863.70] And before the cloudfree guys had it, this was a Tekken SP20.
[1864.26 --> 1867.24] And it used to use TASMOTOR.
[1867.50 --> 1868.52] I can't remember the name of it.
[1868.66 --> 1871.34] But it did the man-in-the-middle flashing thing.
[1871.48 --> 1873.06] To put the TASMOTOR firmware on it.
[1873.62 --> 1875.78] But cloudfree ships with TASMOTOR on it.
[1875.88 --> 1877.98] What does the Shelly firmware work well on it?
[1878.02 --> 1881.04] Because it's got their sort of cloud stuff in it, right?
[1881.58 --> 1882.36] I like it a lot.
[1882.42 --> 1884.94] I think it has a really good set of built-in features.
[1884.94 --> 1891.04] It has built into it without needing to connect to any kind of hub or home assistant or anything like that.
[1891.50 --> 1893.36] You can do scheduled timers.
[1893.52 --> 1895.22] You can set some advanced scheduled timers.
