Indeed, I also use as much as possible variables in my scripts so it is flexible.

that is also why I wanted to avoid putting the costs directly in my script.

Your help is really appreciated Waaren, thanks again!

some additional remarks:

The path to SQLITE3 is different in my environment /etc/bin/sqlite3, so no local in my path.

In the script sudo is used, So I have to find a way to approach the domoticz DB without SUDO, because the script will run unattended.

Ok that is a smart approach via SQL query.
I didn't think of that because I thought there would be a defined variable,
but this is very helpful, thanks very much. thanks Waaren!!
