I've done a number of ESPHome projects (coffee maker, fireplace, garage door, temp sensors, etc) and I'm looking for some ideas on what to try next. What have been your favorite ESPHome projects that you've worked on?

I made a solar powered wifi enabled weather station and moisture meter for my garden. The first attempt was my only and it lasted a couple weeks before I noticed the ants liked the heat of the electronics, created a little farm around the box sitting on the ground and then my wife became unhappy about it.

That said I will eventually make another that is elevated from the ground, just haven't gotten to it yet.
