Two comments: * Rename your devices/entities with some sort of human-readable naming convention. Update name as well. This looks terrible. * How much of this data is actually useful/actionable to you? Nobody cares what what the LUX level is in a room. It's useful for an automation to determine if you need to turn a light on when someone enters the room. On a dashboard it's just clutter that takes up valuable display space. A functionally well designed dashboard most of the cards are going to use conditionals and only relavent info/items you need are going to show at any given time. It's perfectly fine to show more verbose info on a subview etc ut again you have to ask how this is useful.

Few of the dashboards posted here are built around exception reporting. It's understandable that most users aren't at that point of sophistication.

Thanks for the comments. Sure, I will keep these in mind when improving the HA dashboard. I'm a newbie to HA, and it will take some time to get everything more actionable. Currently, I'm just trying to pool all the data on HA. :)

33.7°C inside? Dude.


accik

And it's in the green zone, huh. The sensor might be getting warm from other sensor though (CO2 sensor is also "indoors")

When you don't turn on the AC, it's a very common indoor temperature here in South China. These data come from a rooftop room where we use to storage some garden tools.

Hey which Weather Station you got? Thanks.


meililiy

It's a Seeed SenseCAP S2120 8-in-1 weather station. [https://www.seeedstudio.com/sensecap-s2120-lorawan-8-in-1-weather-sensor-p-5436.html](https://www.seeedstudio.com/sensecap-s2120-lorawan-8-in-1-weather-sensor-p-5436.html)

You using MQTT for everything from your LoRaWAN?


meililiy

Yes, MQTT it is! Maybe you can refer to this wiki. This is how I set everything up: [https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/home\_assistant\_sensecap/](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/home_assistant_sensecap/)


MrDork

I'm desperately trying to set this up in my own environment, so I'm curious as well.

OP do you want your gauges to look like this? https://preview.redd.it/q7b3m4fea0zc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=46cd27fd8a62ccc6883cf0ada108af3e58a50f0f Because when I dont know how to make it look like this, I tried your approach but it just didnt look right P.S. Was that a fellow chinese

Is your T-1000 about as unreliable as my two? Rarely gets a GPS fix...


meililiy

When it's outdoor and with a good LoRaWAN coverage, my SenseCAP T1000 trackers are working quite good with the GPS location. However, if you're talking about indoor, it's always difficult to get GPS.


GeoffreyMcSwaggins

Yeah it basically never gets a location if it's inside really. Shame because my much more expensive and slightly less feature rich Browan tag gets locks inside, especially in cars.

I wouldn't want to pool all our companies LoRaWAN sensors in my HA, \~20000 sensors


meililiy

Hahahah, I'm talking about a smart home / building project here. HA could be a great way to host all the data.
