Hi folks,
I have a water sensor entity in my Home Assistant that keeps track of the realtime water consumption in my household. The thing I'm trying to do is the following:
At some time of the day my dishwasher is running. Let's say that gives above named sensor a value of 6000. Then I'm going to take shower and thet at the moment I turn on the shower the value will increase with again 7000.
Then the sensor value will be 13000. Or for another example the begin level of the value is 0 because there is no water consumption at that specific moment and then you turn on the shower it will increase witth 7000 to the value 7000.
I know that we can easily make a trigger for when sensors will become above a specific value, but I need to create an automation trigger that will work when the sensor increases the value in between 7000 and 7200 within 10 seconds, no matter what the value of the sensor was on forehand. This to let HA know the shower turns on.
I already tried some things with a trend sensor, but I honestly cannot figure out how to make them work and if that is the right way to create that specific trigger.
Thanks in advance for your input.
