I'm an enthusiastic maker and developer in the fields of Smart Home, IoT, and Home Automation. On GitHub, I share my Node-RED flows, integration solutions, and automation projects that make my home more efficient, safer, and more comfortable. My focus is on practical, cost-effective, and reliable solutions.
Here are some of my most important public repositories – practical guides for your smart home:
| Repository | Description |
|---|---|
| Heiman-HS1SA-E-Smokedetector | Complete Node-RED integration for the Zigbee smoke detector including alerts via email, Pushover & ntfy as well as visual alarm (blinking Zigbee bulb). |
| Keep-your-basement-dry | Intelligent control of a dehumidifier (Tasmota socket + Node-RED) – without additional electricity costs. |
| Node-Red-Control-Proxon-E3DC | PV surplus control for a hot water storage tank based on battery charge level (Shelly, MQTT, Node-RED). |
| ZigBee2MQTT-Aquara-Sensor | Window/door contact with time warning – ideal for monitoring and energy efficiency. |
- Automation: Node-RED
- Wireless Protocols: Zigbee (Zigbee2MQTT), MQTT, Tasmota (ESP8266/ESP32)
- Programming: JavaScript, JSON, Python, PowerShell, Batch
- Platforms: Raspberry Pi, Mosquitto (MQTT Broker)
- Integrations: Photovoltaics (E3DC), Heating (Proxon), Battery Storage, Somfy Tahoma
I'm excited about exchange, feedback, and collaboration – especially on topics like:
- Energy management (PV, battery SOC, heat pumps)
- Node-RED flow optimization
- Integration of proprietary systems (e.g., Tahoma)
