Showas option for sonoff D1 Dimmer #436

Closed Nivlac7 closed 1 year ago

Nivlac7 commented 1 year ago

I would like to have my sonoff D1 to show as a fan in Home app (used to control the fan speed of my fireplace)

Not a problem as such, your plugin is great!

Sonoff D1

Never known this use case for a D1 but definitely something I can look into!

Nivlac7 commented 1 year ago

Yes, the fan is max 70W and to be used with a dimmer, so D1 can easily be used for that purpose and sonoff is by far best price for it. Thank you in advance, looking forward for it !

Please install the beta version of the plugin and use the config 'Light Devices' section to expose the D1 as a fan type. I have not tested this as I do not have a D1, but it should work!

Great! Perfectly working and I see it now under the climate part of Home App 👌🏼 Thanks you very much

Would you mind providing a model number of your fan for reference. I'm just curious about what fans might work with this. Thanks.

Sure, it is the fan of the bodart & Gonay opti green: https://www.youtube.com/ It is replacing the ugly manual dimmer you see in the video @ 3:16 😉
