Hi All,
I have seen from several posts, users with live camera feeds of their grow house.
I'm looking at adding such a system to my HA setup and I am seeking some ideas on how to achieve this.
My plan was to a Pi Zero W with the V2 camera module, enabling this as an IP camera and integrating this into HA using the "generic IP camera platform".
I'm interested to see how other users achieve this and for any recommendations for better way of integrating this into HA?
Thanks!

I personally use an old android phone with the app "CamON Live" from the play store.

I tired using the wyze cam, but was getting very poor quality inside grow room.
Thanks! I cannot get the Wyze cam in Ireland at a decent price. The Neos camera is pretty cheap here and looks quite similar
Interesting idea hacking the Ikea grow light. I had planned on using individual Sansi grow lights controlled via a Sonoff.rik94566 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 3:20 pmThis was on Instuctables today and seems to be good set of instructions with what you might be looking for.
