I would love to hear more about your setup and build. How are you using the heat, and what did you have to build to make use of it?

The private space sounds interesting. I wonder how it works in practice. Can any app be stored there?

exactly, i use https://iotawatt.com/ to monitor at the breaker box. Integration works well with HA

I have the circuits for all my “dumb” appliances monitored by my homeassistant. Then HA sends notifications to my phone. And it doesn’t need to send 3.6GB to the internet to do it.

1961 Gibson Discoverer Amp. Found it in the basement as a teen. Replaced the fuse holder and fuse. Powered up all the tubes no problem and still running strong today.
