Notes / Gotchas
- The
ratgdov2.5iESPHome device has no HA area assigned in the device registry — entities are correctly assigned togaragearea but the parent device showsarea_id: null. - Two separate Garage Smart Lock entities exist: one via Matter (Aqara Smart Lock U100) and the
ratgdov2.5i e4d21f Lock remotes(which controls RATGDO's remote access, not the door lock itself). - The Reolink Driveway camera uses the
reolinknative integration (not RTSP-only) — this provides full motion detection, AI detection, siren, and floodlight control.
