  • That’s totally true, though, in this case with LEDs I feel like the rebound effect is less of a problem here. The LEDs are not only using less electricity, but they’re far brighter with addition to using less electricity for that brightness. It means that even if somebody decides to fill their room with 5 LED lamps with 806 lumens instead of 1 incandescent bulb, they’ll still waste less energy - in addition with 5 LED lamps of 806lm making your room look like the sun is shining inside.




  • What you could do is have one of the HAs install the custom integration remote-homeassistant. However, even then it would mean that you have to somehow make your instance available outside e.g. VPN, port forwarding, cloud service, …

    This one connects with the instance directly via a long-lived token and allows you to control and read date from the other instance. The good thing though: The configuration.yaml way allows you to specificially include or exclude entities. So with that you could technically only send the entities from slimmelezer+ without having to pass the other info.

    I would say the only caveat would be that because the long-lived token is somewhere on the other house’s instance, they could technically take it and send commands randomly to your instance :P Maybe with an extra user you could maybe limit the permissions or something similar and create the long-lived token there - haven’t tried it though, just a thought.
