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?

Garage sensor. Uses distance sensors to detect door open/closed and car present /absent. Has buttons to open/close the doors, a 3v garage door remote. Also has a motion sensor, temp/humidity sensor and a photo resistor to understand outside ambient brightness.

Looking at building some fridge/freezer temperature and water leak sensors.

Oh this sounds neat. Do you have a write up on what you did? I'm just getting into this, and only recently into things like esps and I would love to do something similar.
