Re: Compensated readings with Atlas EZO + Tasmota + Node Red

Thanks for sharing. One thing I do on an hourly basis within a Node-red routine is read the temperature from the PT-1000 probe, then issue the temperature compensation command to the pH and EC probes: "T, temperature ". Temperature compensation value is stored until the probe controller is turned o...

Re: Tasmota 9.2 apparently now supports EZO Sensors

Auto temperature compensation? I think most work off using temp for the first i2c device but, it would be awesome to see any tasmota temp sensor work for compensation. Calibration through button would be nice. I'm sure you can do it in the console which is something I don't think ESPHome is capable ...

Re: lovelace mini graph card

Looks good. I found this card a few weeks ago also. I needed a way to display more than one temp sensor together. Spent some time playing around and came up with this for temp and humidity: I like how you can set the color for high and low. type: vertical-stack cards: - type: 'custom:mini-graph-card...

Re: WHO LIKES "BLUEPRINT"

I will definitely be using a combination of blueprint/automations and node red. An example would be I use an automation to trigger a boolean at a input_datetime which in HA works perfectly on time. In node red there is no great way to do this. Then NodeRed would take that boolean trigger and activat...

Re: Zwave

I setup the Sonoff bridge flashed with tasmota, integrated to HA through ZHA. I initially did it all in one room and it was working good. When I unpluged it to move it and change batteries I lost connection to most of my sonoff temp/hum sensors. 1 Still works. I have mixed opinions but, I think I'll...

Re: Peristaltic dosing pumps setup

No help from the folks at HA but, I did manage to setup a linear PWM calibration based on a low and a high calibration. My pumps don't come on until about 55 so, I made an input_number for 60-100 to use as the base to change the 255 scale. Also, if the pumps weren't ON/running I couldn't pull a brig...

Re: Peristaltic dosing pumps setup

I'm asking questions on the HA forum on how to get a linear calibration done in template sensors so that you can set the PWM and it adjusts the calibration automatically. I thought about using 3 different calibrations low, med, high so I'd have some adjustment but, I'd rather figure out how to do it...

Re: Peristaltic dosing pumps setup

The solution I ended up using for hardware is a mosfet based LED strip controller. It can run on either 12v or 24v so they are a great fit for peristaltic pumps. I found some industrial 24v pumps I ended up using. The mosfets would heat up in about 10 seconds so, I ordered some small heatsinks to se...

Re: DIY Grow Room Automation w/ Node-Red

Here's my fertigation automation. Very close to LEDgardener 's but, I use hours after lights on rather than a time. That way if I change the lights on time it changes the watering schedule. The flow takes an input number changes it to ms, then switch node changes payload to delay which uses the dela...

Re: ESP32 vs Arduino Mega

I tried to do the ESPHome bluetooth bridge with some govee sensors I have but, apparently it has a very limited number of working sensors. So, I ordered some Mijia sensors. I hope in the future they implement the entire HA bluetooth list. It would be awesome to incorporate some of the other brand bl...
