Will be daisy chained to my existing one

Happy days

Re: Home Assistant!

Good Job Stinsy, as you make your dashboard pages , add 1 as a test page only available to you - you can run your new tests into this and then move them on when you are happy - I have loads of dashboards - energy graphs- heating controls,cars,solar cctv etc.
