Pro tip: set your low battery percentage to 75% and it will be a lot better for the battery. The nominal voltage is where lithium batteries are the most happy and have the least amount of wear. Cycling a lithium battery below and above the nominal voltage is harder on the battery vs keeping it at nominal voltage.

Just getting into home automation with home assistant, and this has given me a lot of hope and excitement around the possibilities. Thanks for the quality content!

@MrDingleberry31

Thanks. Great info as always and step by step guide really helps

@martinwatson8081

excellent tutorial - thank you very much ive implemented the doorbell and wake on motion

@bluethunder7778

Awesome and very usefull info! I am currently using a couple of Fire Tablets with Sharptools and will be looking into going this route if it can do everything I am currently doing in Sharptools - since I am already licensed with Fully Kiosk on both of my tablets, this would actually save me money for not having to pay for Sharptools licensing yearly. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!

Thanks!! Really awsome info. I already had 2 tablets setup with Fully Kiosk Browser and is working great. However I did not know there was also a HA integration. I learned from your video I can basically use this to assign a button to open a different webpage. I now made a button to open google shopping list and a button to open my recipebook in the tablet in the kitchen. Game changer! :)

@MajorWedgie

OMG! I have been looking for the whole ID->Choose thing for ever. Never knew how to do it! Thank you Lewis!

Thank you for this!

Always entertaining and useful to watch your videos. I have had a tablet in the kitchen working as a dashboard/music thingy for over a year, and I still managed to learn a few things. Namely the 'panel view' and the 'numeric state choose', which I had never used before. Also, I had the tablet plugged in to power for more than 6 months, and so far so good.

Great video, helped me understand how fully kiosk works. I think I'm just going to stick with my current set up, for the simplicity same of my partner. Currently I havey galaxy tab A8 on a tablet stand (don't want to mount stuff on the walls) and by changing a setting to have the lock button pressed 2 times, it opens HA and takes us to my alarmo panel with toggles for lights and to open the garage door

I saw another channel using a pixel tablet to create some nice dashboards recently. Fully Kiosk Browser has been around for years and looks fantastic. I am not totally sold on wall panels myself. I prefer a dashboard to be near to where I am most likely to use it, which honestly is the coffee table near where I sit in the lounge, or the kitchen bench. I admit, wall panels use to be my aim, but I found, from personal experience, that in my use case, walking to a wall panel was, in the end, no different to walking to an old fashioned switch or thermostat.

great video and use case ... particular like the idea of cutting/returning power to keep the device within band. I've had a lot of Android devices bloat on me over the past two years and looking forward to treating them better. :)
