The full story

The Govee H60A4 ceiling light has a white panel with a separate RGB ring. The Govee app can light the ring on its own, but Home Assistant's local and Matter integrations treat the lamp as one light. This custom integration, built after finding the protocol with REA, adds a separate ring light that's controlled entirely locally. It's only tested on the H60A4.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count).
