I also want to try this, the price of raspberry pi's have gone thru the roof, and I was looking for alternative devices to be my server. Now I am wondering if perhaps another micro computer may be a better way to go for running Domoticz. Perhaps a Chrorme book or an tablet ? I am curious what ...

Today I finallty figured out how to use the android ADB to have my phone play sounds when an event has happened. When my well pump turns on it now plays an MP3 so that I know it was turned on. I also use this to play my music playlists on my phone. I use a button switch to turn the playlist on and ...

Thank you for your help that gives me a good direction to get the task completed. It is good to know the limitations of Blocky, and that another way of scripting this can get the job done.

Ok I figured out how to start a Scene with Blocky, I just want to know now how to send a value of my voltage monitor to my email with blockiy. I have "Send email with subject" but just need to send the value of my sensor.

I have created a blocky program to send to my email each day at 11 AM an email if the battery is full. I have created a battery voltage sensor that works great. Now, I want to change this code to do the following. 1) If the battery is above 24.0 V then I want it to turn on the water pump for 50 ...

I did make a video of the progress so far ->

I have been trying to understand capacitors magic in circuits, this video was most eye opening..

Hi, I thought I would post an update, I was able to get rid of the voltage spikes by adding a capacitor to the center of the voltage divider and putting the other leg to the ground of the esp8266 board!. that problem is now all gone. I love it when a problem is that simple to get rid of and gets rid ...

That is very sweet! I built a voltage monitor to run off wifi but I am still working out the bugs, this looks like a well built solution.

Now I can know what my batter pack is and have a history of where it has been.

Still have to work out some problems, but so nice to have this working.

So I guess what you do is disable "enabled" on the device, then create a loop with timers so that it reads the data compares with last then sends via rules. I took a quick look at rules, but I did not see where they detailed how to send the data to domoticzs..... If you have a link to an example ...

What settings do you recommend for testing sleep mode? So do you touch a wire from GPO 16 to reset to get this mode started? ( if So I may install a momentary switch for this ) I have never done this, and if you can point me to a tutor, as I did not see one on their site. At present my solution is ...

I like that solution, I like that alot! Rules on the ESP8266 board, would filter any bad data before it would be recorded and thus there would be no problem data, only missing gaps. I guess the next trick is to switch to the ESP32 so that I can use the sleep mode to save power so I can run this on ...

The only issue I get is I get an value of -65 V on like a random basis. I am guessing this is cause by flyback voltage to the battery, but I am not sure how to filter that out, but I can manually remove the data points with the shift click on the graft. I love searching these forums

Using a voltage divider I was able to make a voltage monitor with the ESP8266, with ADS1115. The Outback charge controller was a real pain to give me the voltage in any form that I could use with Domoticz, but now I have a complete status even on my cell phone. I love this program, combined with ...

I have created a board on MeWe to help discuss ESP8266 - Esp32 - Domoticz stuff, and thought I would send a link to that forum for those who are interested. https://mewe.com/group/5b32c5e6178fca111e9fb75f I have completed a voltages monitor and I have the details on this board of how I did it with ...

Thanks guys I have got my first blocky program to partly work with the ESP. Moving on to other sensors.

I am wondering if this ESP board would work for this -> https://www.aliexpress.com/item/ESP32-Development-Board-WiFi-Bluetooth-Ultra-Low-Power-Consumption-Dual-Core-ESP-32-ESP-32S/32802431728.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10152_5722917_10151_10065_10344_10068_10130_10324_10342_10547 ...

Thanks for the suggestions. I being familiar with the ESP8266 I think this is the route I want to go. After looking at the max voltage of INA219 at 26 volts I think I want to go with another breakout instead. The INA169 breakout board goes up to 60 V, so I think this is what I want, but I don't know ...

I am looking to monitor my 24 V battery pack 5 KWH. I wish to use Domoticz to check if the battery pack is full via solar if so, I will then have it control other switches dependant on battery voltage. Is there a device that is commercially made that does this already on the cheap? I found this, but ...
