Hi Carlo,
## TLDR - Maybe made the fitbit component support multiple devices. (see disclaimer and instructions below!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
## Long version...
I've been looking in to sleep monitoring and was looking at getting fitbits for my other-half and myself, but it's only any use spending the money if I can monitor us both with homeassistant. As such, I did a bit of research and saw the various threads that show the current component is only working with one device. So, I decided to have a look at amending it. Problem being, I can't test it because I don't have the devices to test it on, and I'm not buying the devices until I know it works.
## Disclaimer
I am not a python programmer, I'm just learning the platform now, but I get the logic so I've fumbled through! It appears to be working as far as I can test it without the devices here. If this breaks anything I'm really really sorry! Make sure you follow the instructions below for some safeguarding!
## Instructions
1 - Make a backup copy of your current fitbit.conf somewhere away from your homeassistant instance.
2 - Delete your current local copy of fitbit.conf, and add this PR to your custom_components folder
3 - Change your configuration.yaml (or appropriate package/include) to:
```
sensor:
- platform: fitbit
filename: carlo.conf
- platform: fitbit
filename: wife.conf
```
plus whatever monitored conditions you want and your clock preference if relevant.
4 -Restart homeassistant
5 - You should get a configurator card for the two entities, copy the contents of your old fitbit.conf in to carlo.conf , sort out the details for your wife's in to hers.
6 - Let me know!!!
## If it all goes wrong
Delete this custom component, reinstate your original fitbit.conf, revert your configuration.yaml (or appropriate include/package).
##Disclaimer 2
If it doesn't work, I might not be able to do much more as I am not a python programmer, but let me know because it might be something I can work out.
If it does work I'll get another couple of people to test and then submit it as an update for the integrated component.

| There aren't really automations for the Batteries yet. Electricity is the life blood for the house and only really the Tesla Battery has smarts so maybe in the future, you'll see a Powerwall automation in this space. | ||||

Using the APs (3 of them), The house monitors all Connected devices for Online/Offline status and uses '' for presence detection. Any critical device down for more than 5 minutes and an alert is sent out. Circle is a Parental Control device. When a new device is discovered on the network, HA notifies us and also plays a TTS reminder over the speakers to classify in Circle. Most things are Wifi connected but a good gigabit switch is needed for a good foundation. | ||||

The Alexa devices in my house are for automation overrides. They are primarily an input device into Home Assistant. Using HA Ability to ask Alexa to repeat the last Voice notification - 'Alexa, Turn on Last message'.
Last Message Package - /config/packages/triggers/last_message.yaml Guest mode to disable certain interior automations. Trigger via Alexa. 'Alexa, Turn on Guest Mode.'

Mobile devices are a critical part of my Home Automation. They establish presence in the house and are the basis for many automations. Home? Turn on the lights. Leave? Turn them all off kind of thing. We use NMAP for presence detection. IOS Notifications for Offline Devices, BadLogins, HA Startups, new HA versions and IP Changes for DNS.
External IP changes - /config/automation/System/ip_change.yaml Reminders to take my medicine sent as IOS notifications ONLY when I arrive back home for the night.

This group of devices is basically for additional presence control. The Nest thermostats and Protects basically run themselves. The thermostat 'away' mode triggers my away scripts which turn items off. The Protects are SOLID smoke detectors. They really came in handy during Irma. The SleepIQ bed adds to my presence detection. It will notify HA if either side of the bed is occupied. More controls are coming but I use this extensively. The WiThings scale also triggers morning and goodnight routines depending on when I step on it during the day. Turn off lights when Nest Thermostats detects we are away. (Upstairs and Downstairs)Turn on Upstairs lights if Nest Thermostats detects people and it's nighttime.
Upstairs Automation - /config/automation/upstairs_motion_ifttt.yaml (IFTTT) Trigger Good Night routine when I step on the Withings scale after 10pm.Turn on bathroom accent lights when either of us steps out of bed at night. Turns them back off when we are back in bed.
Master Bath Automation - /config/automation/master_bath_accents.yaml Turn off all interior lights when the last person gets into bed.Silence all Voice notifications if anyone is in bed. Redirect to Fire Tablets.

Voice Notifications - Giving Voice to the Smart Home Blog Post

To me, Voice is the coolest part of the smart home. It gives it personality. It's something not just anyone has and helps your house stand apart from the pack. I use the Amazon Polly TTS component since it sounds the closest to Alexa. This gives a seemless transition from Alexa to Home Assistant responding. Most think it is just one system. The mixer allows TTS to mix right in over Music. The TP-Link Outlet is used to turn off the Mixer and AMP when we do not need it. It's a great inexpensive solution. Turn off all the voice devices when we are not home or in bed.
Away Automation - /config/automation/away.yaml All voice notifications are pushed though a speech engine. Random words and sentances are used to give the house some personality..Voice announcements whenever someone comes home.
People Greeter - /config/automation/Speech/announcements.yaml Voice notifications for all sorts of things related to the house. (Temps, presence, doors open, windows open, garage door statuses, sunset.)
Speech Macros are called by automation scripts - /script/speech_engine.yaml Digital Cuckoo Clock that goes off each hour and on the half just like a real Cuckoo Clock.Once you can teach your house to talk, you just keep expanding on it's vocabulary. It's addicting. :) | ||||
Various Hubs - Smart Home Parts/Sum Blog Post

The Hubs help the home communicate across all the various protocols running in the house. The Hue hubs (I have 2 actually) talk to most of the lights. Some lights and switches talk over Zwave to the Wink Hub. The RM Pro talks 433Mhz to my EtekCity outlets. The ESPs while technically not a Hub do bridge the connection to all the windows and door sensors that are hardwired in my house. One set acts as my DIY alarm system while the other act as DIY Motion Sensors. Using [Etekcity Outlets](http://amzn.to/2efNoBP) to control accent lighting above kitchen cabinets and room cutouts.
Kitchen Accents Automation - /config/automation/kitchen_lights_and_accents.yaml Turn on Hallway light for no more than 20 minutes when Pantry door is opened.
Hallway Automation - /config/automation/zwave_hallway_door_sensor.yaml Detects when lights are turned on and adjusts them to correct brightness based on time of day.
Auto Light adjustment Automation - /config/automation/System/detect_and_adjust_lights.yaml Shut down HVAC system if a Window or Door is left open for more than 5 minutes.Play chime on all window and door open/closes.
Door Chime Automation - /config/automation/System/door_chime.yaml Think of the Hubs each as bridges for HA to talk to various hardware around the house. | ||||

Almost all my lights (40+) are white GE Link lights. I bought them early on before Hue came out with inexpensive white A19s. Even Ikea has great lights now. Colored lights are in the front sconces and also used in the living room. The Go lights are specifically for the kids since they are both wireless and also have a button on them making them very tactile for kids. The EtekCity outlets are the most inexpensive ($6) yet reliable outlets out there. I have them deployed all over the house as accent lighting with some rope lights in most of the home's cut outs. Turn on TV Time Lights (dim and color) at Sunset (if home and TV is on)
TV Time Automations - /config/automation/tv_time_on_and_off.yaml Sets up the front lights in the house with preset colors depending on the ~~month~~ day!.Turns living room lights `red` when a Window or Door is opened past sunset. Resets to `yellow/gold` when all doors/windows are closed. | ||||
Outdoor Landscaping

The great outdoors can be automated too! Mainly lights but also the sprinkler system and water supply. The Phyn leak detector was announced in CES. It looks for abnormal flows and if senses them, alerts me and shuts water main. The GE Outlets are hooked up to my 12v transformers allowing me to turn the landscaping lights on and off. The LED strips are DIY and the recipe is in the next section.

Mentioned above, this is one of my favorite projects for the house. The ability to completely change the look of the house on the drop of a dime and on a dime budget is awesome. Read the blog post linked above for all the parts details but here are some automations I love.
| ||||
Garage Gadgets
| ||||
 
|  
|  
|
| |
|
Garage doors, Cars, charging stations. Going green. All part of a complete home automation setup. The garage door openers are probably the most important. No one wants to forget that they left them open when they've left or gone to bed. Closing forgotten garage doors makes it all worth it.

TVs and Streaming Devices

TV Automations are super cool. Turn on a movie and the lights begin to dim automatically. It's super cool. Out TVs are back lit with Hue Lightstrips so we can do some pretty neat effects with automations. We are #CordCutters as well so all out TV is streamed to the Rokus. FireTV for party games and the Snyology, I'll talk about later in the Survellance section.
| ||||
Cameras

Cameras are both for security and data sensors. They can trigger motion events, lighting conditions or for doorbells, when someone presses it. When all else fails though, a good recording of a Bull Mastiff is sure to do the trick!
| ||||
Sensors
| ||||
 
|  
|  
|  
| |
|
Sensors add data to Home Assistant. Most of my Doors and windows are hardwired but for some interior doors, I also have the wireless sensors. They connect to my Wink Hub. PiHole is running on my PiZero. It's super easy to install and runs DNS, DHCP and ad blocking for the whole house on a great little 5v form factor.

Todo List 
The issues section on github is where I store all my wishful ideas and future enhancements.
Feel free to join the conversations there.
All files are now being edited with Atom.
All of my configuration files are tested against the most stable version of home-assistant using Travis.
