Hi All.
So I hope that someone cleverer than me can help with optimising a flow that I'm working on (actually had it working, but the raspi memory card died and my backup was faulty)... Anyways, doing it second time, I hoped that someone here would provide help on a smarter way of going about it.
Basically, my flow(s) controls a series of vents in my basement, which dependent on different weather conditions will start.
I have previously done the on/off logic manually, but maybe there's a node or something that will help making it simpler.
The basic functionality is this:
I set a max runtime, and a minimumtime to wait between runs. If the weather conditions are within threshold, a true message will be received, which - if waittime is over - will start the vents running the set runtime.
Anyone knowledgeable of a cleverer way of achieving this than the rather complex way I'm doing it now?
