Thanks for your reply @stud!! I usually use ESPHome firmware instead of Tasmota for my projects, but in this case I prefer to use Tasmota due to the calibrate options for the EZO sensors. I haven´t receive my EZO PH sensor yet. However with your help I´m convinced that I will do it works with Tasmota firmware.

im running 2 atlas hydro kits with the K1.0 and no issues reading / calibrating , super precise ,
i should try the K0.1 , it's on my list .
but the K1.0 is been super for me .

Hey @stud , thanks for your reply.

My hydro kit came in and I flashed it using the bin that you provided. However I cannot get the sensors to show up. I configured the SCL/SDA on the correct GPIO, I confirmed by running the i2cscan command in the console. I dont have the option to use the "Generic" template. Does anyone have any ideas?

Yes ESP32

I have it working esphome however I think I would prefer Tasmota for ease of calibration. I will give a try shortly and update.

Thanks!

Hey @stud , worked right away however I only configured the SCL and SDA and the readings showed up. I thought I still had to assign the sensors to the GPIO's. The readings seem accurate though. It appears as though Tasmota will only send updates every 5 minutes, is there a way to increase this ?

I found how to change the MQTT send interval, in the console you have to change the TelePeriod.

Default = TelePeriod 300 (5 minutes)

I changed mine to TelePeriod 10 (10 seconds)
