I've done a number of ESPHome projects (coffee maker, fireplace, garage door, temp sensors, etc) and I'm looking for some ideas on what to try next. What have been your favorite ESPHome projects that you've worked on?

Mine was flashing my Emporia Vue2 home energy monitoring system with ESPHome

I'm always interested in sensors (got a bunch of home made Air Quality and CO2 sensors) so seeing real time energy was cool.

With the per circuit sensing I'm experimenting with identifying if my fridge is left open, or identifying when my clothes washer is finished.

Omg measuring power to detect when the washer and dryer are complete is genius. Gonna flag this as a future project when I get around to finishing the rest of my smart home projects
