Turned my @OralB toothbrush into a light switch 🤣. ESP32 chip running @esphome_ parsing the manufacture data out of the advertisement data and sending the brush state to @home_assistant #bluetooth #smarthome

If only the wall switch enabled your toothbrush, this would be perfect.

How about why a toothbrush is sending advertisement data?

Someone should make an Internet of Shit Haunted House Escape Room. Every button on every thing does something. Nothing does what it's supposed to do (or at least not only the thing).

I'm working on using Bluetooth advertisements to have my computer know whether I'm in the room or not.
