  1. right on. thank you! now i wonder why the Nord Pool CS didn't seem to know that? haha
  2. ahh, so i would then use the "Kr.sand" modifier in the 'Regions' config category?
  3. yes! i looked into that but Nord Pool for some reason doesn't provide data for Stavanger/Rogaland. I reached out to their customer service and they couldn't give me a straight answer as to why, either 🤷‍♂️
  4. ah ha, tusen takk! I'm not sure how I missed your original post but, as you said, it's basically 90% of what i'm trying to achieve. awesome. However, I have zero experience with AppDaemon, and it sounds like it's not exactly trivial to get up and running. I suppose there's never been a bette excuse to try haha. Maybe I can DM you if I have any struggles?
  5. hello! I posted this in @funny0frank's API thread, but was advised to make a new topic in the hopes of getting a bit more traction I've recently switched providers from Tibber to Lyse (long story) and therefore no longer have access to the Tibber API. So, was looking for something precisely like @funny0frank's API to be able to pull electricity rates for here in Stavanger into Home Assistant. Previously with the Tibber HA integration I had a card on my dashboard that would display whether the electricity rate at any particular time was some variation of "Very Cheap" to "Very Expensive" and that allowed us to know whether it was worth running the dishwasher/washing machine or not. I'd like to recreate this (or some close-enough approximation) if possible, however, my code-fu is pretty abysmal - i can manage a bit of yaml but mostly i just crib from other people's work and tweak what I can figure out haha. I've been trying to game it out in my head how to run it. I'm thinking I would need to: poll the API, once a day at midnight, to get the electricity rates for the coming day store that data somewhere create a sensor in Home Assistant that then looks at that data every hour to display the relevant price for that hour create a template sensor that changes the price into categories of "Very Cheap", "Cheap", "Normal", "Expensive", "Very Expensive" based on defined ranges (The last part, while not necessary, would really give it that extra WAF that makes home automation popular in our household!) Does that sound about right? I'd be interested to know if anyone here has managed to use @funny0frank's API in home assistant to create something similar?
  6. Hi there. Firstly, thanks to @funny0frankfor this excellent API. A real boon to the home automation community, kudos! I've recently switched providers from Tibber to Lyse (long story) and therefore no longer have access to the Tibber API. So, was looking for something precisely like this to be able to pull electricity rates for here in Stavanger into Home Assistant.

Thanks, and apologies for the English - my Norwegian-fu is also not nearly solid enough to bust out in public...
  7. Thanks for the info! Sounds a little bit above my paygrade and, as you mentioned, best left up to an electrician. Shame, that's it's not an easy solution, but I guess that's the price you pay for safety. Now to convince the boss that it's worth paying Norwegian electrician rates to change out a couple light switches...
  8. Hi there. I have some lights in my bathroom that I'd like to make smart but the bulbs are non-standard. Figured the best way around this is to buy a couple of smart switches that can connect to Homey. However, am new to Norway and unsure about which switches to buy/how easy it is to replace them myself. Is anyone able to make a recommendation? I've heard Aqara make decent ones, for instance. Sorry for the English!
  9. Awesome, thank you! I think that's all I need to give this a go. Will report back here if I have success (or need any further info haha)! Appreciate the help
  10. Hey there! I have a few days off until the new year and think I will give this a crack! Do you happen to have a link to the Cylinder Extender that you mentioned you used? Just want to make sure im using all the right pieces!
  11. That's awesome, and smart work testing it out on another door before trying your main one! The door case you linked, is this the one that was already in your door before the Nest and you replaced it with something else? Or is it the one you ended up getting to work with the Nest? I ask, because it looks very similar to what's in my door already which, if you managed to get it working with this, gives me a lot of hope that I can do it too! (You also don't happen to be in Stavanger and can recommend a good carpenter by any chance? Haha)
  12. Can I ask what your original lock used to be? Was it a mortise lock (like so: https://images.app.goo.gl/ibhzfcXZTTupEy8B6) or just a traditional deadbolt. In my door, the handle and lock are connected like in the image above and my concern is that I will need to somehow fill out the hole that remains when I remove it if I'm going to be able to mount the Nest/keep the handle secure.
  13. Oh wow. You weren't kidding about the McGyver-ing! Congrats on getting it to work successfully, it sounds like you really know what you're doing when it comes to this stuff - unlike me, I'm not very familiar with replacing locks in general, and when I set it up at my previous place it was simple because it was the kind of deadbolt lock that the Nest is made for. Now I only wish you had made a step-by-step video of how to do this and put it up in YouTube! I'm afraid I'm liable to mess up my door trying to do this myself. Would it perhaps be worth speaking with a locksmith do you think?
  14. Thanks for the reply! So you think I'd have to place the Nest above the existing lock on the door rather than replacing? (Similarly to your photo earlier in the thread) How has Torill managed to get a proper replacement done? Is this a special/different kind of lock? Apologies for all the questions, I'm not very knowledgeable about this stuff!
  15. Hi there. I've recently relocated to Stavanger and brought my Nest x Yale lock with me. I'd love to get it installed but the door lock systems here are quite different to back home. I see that some of you have had some success with this though, so there could be hope! I've taken some photos of my front door/lock, would someone be able to tell me if I might be able to get this to work (preferably without having to drill a new hole in my door!)
