unkempt mirage
Hello all, question on how to set up a Trend helper for a Tuya temp/humidity sensor, to track when my dryer is cooling down so it can prompt a reminder to empty the dryer. Currently, no matter what settings I set up, I cannot get it to read anything other than "Unknown" value. The derivative function works, but it will fluctuate between a value and zero, since the tuya sensor does not update consistently.
Any ideas?

Hi, avoid Tuya if you can. Maybe a better sensor helps

The sensor is giving data, though I agree that tuya does not seen tu have quality behind it's name. My problem is that ha is not processing that data, likely due to me not programming it correctly, and I'm not sure how to resolve that

So, what settings did you try?

I honestly ended up giving up on the trend sensor. I used a derivative sensor instead and it's doing what I want it to (I think. The dryer hasn't been run since lol)

I use it for tracking humidity so it doesn't turn of lights and exhaust fan in the bathrooms:
Tracks 2 humidity readings over 5 minutes. If the change increase is greater than 20%, evals to true. (20/(60*5)):
- platform: trend sensors: master_bath_shower_occupancy: max_samples: 10 entity_id: sensor.aeon_labs_zw100_multisensor_6_relative_humidity_3 sample_duration: 300 min_gradient: 0.066666

@rough mortar That sensor does not output more then 1 reading per 30sec? Otherwise the max samples is to low 🙂

Seems to work.
Do you have a better suggestion?
