Every year, I return back from my hols to find plants in my greenhouse dead or on life support due to lack of water (despite promises by family to look after them!!!), so this year I thought I'd get node-red to sort it for me. I purchased a Wemos D1 Mini esp board, relay board, a capacitive humidit…

Once flashed, what process are you using to add specific functionality, or add aditional libraries to the Wemos? Is it OTA ? How does that work in practice.

Hi Paul, I use the ESP-Easy-mega firmware. This comes with loads of in-built routines for various sensors/transducers. For the resistive soil moisture sensor I used the analog input converter. [ScreenShot023] I used one of the Wemos output pins to switch a transistor on for 30-seconds every 15…

Paul, I've been working on a flow to let you see all your Wemos, their status and a link to the individual wemos webpage. It is a work in pogress that Dave has been testing. I hope to share it next week after I make a couple more changes and recover from the invasion of family that has been here sin…

I tend to check for ESP-Easy updates on a regular basis and update my key Wemos D1 Minis devices Why? If the device works as expected, there is no reason to update - on the contrary...the only thing you can achieve is to break it. Regular or even automatic updates are a great source of troubles.…

I just posted my project if you want to try it out. [image] 'ET Display Home' a flow to help manage your ESPeasy, Sonoff/Tasmota and Homie flashed devices (now on GitHub) Share Your Projects This project is designed to help you keep your Wemos and Sonoff devices under con…

I don't have any devices running ESPeasy as yet, but once I do, I'll certainly give it a try. Thanks.

[image] Paul-Reed: If so will a wemos D1 control that too? Yes, very easily. Use a opto-isolator between a Wemos digital output pin and SSR, Save yourself some wiring and just buy an opto-isolated SSR, if the pump is AC powered, to minimize spurious rf get an opto-isolated zero-crossing SS…

[image] Paul-Reed: That would be a nice addition, I was looking at this earlier - https://github.com/Grovkillen/ESP_Easy_Netscan and thought how handy it would be, but having that functionality as a NR flow is a bonus :grinning: Wow that is very similar, BUT it's Windows ONLY! My project is …

I'm using opto-isolated zero crossing SSRs for my temperature controller but they're 25 and 40 amp units. They are so economical, <$5us, I'm almost ready to use one for a 1amp water pump. :wink:
