How To Control Your Yeelight With Google Home And Home Assistant
Following the XiaoMi Vacuum, colour me impressed by the build and quality of everything XiaoMi. Got a bit carried away by the moment and so went on a spree and purchased many more XiaoMi smart devices - including the famous XiaoMi YeeLights.
This is a tutorial on how I integrate YeeLight in my ultrahouse - using Google Home as my voice control, and Home Assistant as the ‘brains’. It is assumed you already have a functional Home Assistant running installation in your home network. If you do not, refer to my earlier article on how to setup Home Assistant, IFTTT and WebHooks.
