Portable Button
Purchase recommendation: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This small, versatile button is a great tool for triggering automations in Home Assistant. It offers three interaction modes: single press, double-tap, and long-press, allowing you to assign different automations to each. I’ve personally used it to toggle the air conditioner in one of the rooms, and it’s been very convenient. Another creative use I found is placing it discreetly in the living room, hidden under a table, where a subtle press of the button triggers a “movie night” scene—turning off the lights, powering on the TV, and setting the perfect ambiance.
Despite running on a small CR2032 coin battery, it’s surprisingly efficient and has great battery life. This little button is both practical and reliable for various automation needs.
