Dipping my toes into #HomeAutomation starting with a couple of #Sonoff temp/humidity sensors + Dongle Lite to use with my laptop and #HomeAssistant before having a dedicated hub.

That's £51 so ok to play and get the basics.

Got any thoughts or suggestions?

Home Assistant Green looks good for a dedicated hub but at £150 a bit much until I've tested the basics out. This is for a house I'm not living in yet so monitoring is all I need.

@happyborg Do you have an old PC or mac mini laying around? Maybe even a laptop or macbook? I have my HA on a mini PC with ProxMox.
