Start a Harmony activity with Button Widget
How this automation works
Automatically stop your Harmony activity when electricity prices get high. This runs when your chosen NEM electricity price exceeds your specified threshold, ending the selected Harmony activity. It's great for saving energy and costs during peak price periods.
