I've had a fitbit wifi bathroom scale for a while. Getting the data out got suddenly more difficult when Google bought them, and I didn't love giving that data to google. It's finally died, and I'm looking at replacement options.
In a perfect world, I could just go to a store and buy a "HomeAssistant Ready" scale. If I can't have that, I'd like a scale that is on my local network and exposes the last x weigh-ins as an API on the device, then I could write something to poll it.
I haven't seen anything like those, but have turned up:
- a project to decode the bluetooth transmissions of a number of scales (after you build an ESP32 device for it)
- the Withings cloud based scale, but with a well documented API
Any other good options?
Sure, and I could also turn on/off my lights with a switch instead of having them come on when I get home, and turn off when I leave.
That's crazy talk.
Who would do such a thing? It must absolutely terrible to manually flip a switch.
I don't know what you want man. I like automating stuff so I don't have to worry about remembering as much.
