    I would LOVE a beginner guide to Home Assistant! We’re getting ready to move and I think it’s the perfect time for me to finally make the switch
  • @onlyzach1
    Yes, please do the Home Assistant tutorials! I've been wanting to get into it, but too scared haha. Good video as always!
  • @joaomensah8159
    Reed I'm generally the biggest fan of you and your family especially your home!I just implemented your smart home automation for distracting your kids here in my home in the UK I enjoyed this vide a lot and I learn much from you all the time Thank you for you and your family's work!
  • @Tommy_Tran023
    Watching your videos started my rabbit hole of getting my own smart home! Thanks for all the content and tips!
  • You are describing what I have been calling in my head an "aware home", sensors all over to know what is going on, and then actions based on those sensors to make them "smart"
  • @FlyingHellfish
    When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all..... I think of that a lot when I'm spending hours making automatons work just right, but the ones that are flawless are the ones with the highest approval
  • @monas.6839
    This is so helpful, Reed! I can’t wait to start tinkering with Home Assistant 😊
  • @jamesmonahan7872
    Great video Reed. I would concur with all that you said and have done most of what you have suggested. It is much easier doing one room at a time as the whole home can get overwhelming. Be curious to see the HA tutorial and will watch for that on the other channel. Keep up the great work.
  • @AlfRobson-we9tz
    Excellent video! Answered virtually all of my questions as I look to smart-ify the new house a bit.
  • @sundeeppatel3537
    Beginner Home Assistant video would be amazing, looking forward to when it gets posted!!!
  • @reidcardwell
    Great video! I'm in the process of porting my hodge-podge smart home into Home Assistant, so I'm definitely looking for good H.A. content right now. I know whatever you produce will be good stuff, thanks for taking the time to help the rest of us.
  • @Phil_Here
    Great work in this channel. I have been a subscriber for a long time but under a private account.. It's been fun to watch you grow your channel. Keep up the good work!
  • @firestorm4370
    Yes, i would love a beginner home assistant video. I am blind and just purchased a HA yellow kit and cm4. Going to be working on the install tomorrow and could always benifit from totorials to grapple how to get going.
  • @loraf2009
    Getting ready to move so this is right on time. Can't wait for the next one!
  • I'm savings these videos to a Home Automation playlist as I gear up to get started!
  • @Nifty-Stuff
    This was GREAT! Exactly what I need for my new smarthome remodel! Yes, please to a simple HomeAssistant from scratch video!
