I have a concoction of devices from all kind of manufacturers with cryptic codes in their names. Each device exposes multitude of sensors which makes the dashboard look like a mess.
- Is there a best practice for renaming devices ? Do you name them by their location ? By their utility ? manufacturer ?
- How do you identify the devices later in case there’s a problem and one needs to be replaced / battery need to be replaced ?

As a side note, I really wish folders were implemented for devices and automations and such. Especially since I have a scene controller (and another on the way) with several buttons, each of which can have 6 different triggers (pressing 1-5 times or holding the button down). Oh, and more for the LEDs.
This is why all my automations are in Node-Red. Reusability.
I have monthly problems with nodered. I have transitioned most of my automations away from it.
