My Project

Thanks! The boat is about 40 feet but I hope to feed all the data from the boat in one place close to the main board. I have solar panels. But they don't deliver enough power during the winter. That's why I also like to have an update of the voltage of the four 75Ah batteries so that I can charge the batteries from land (220V) when needed.

Maybe this will help you a bit http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/2106/reinventing-the-motion-controlled-outside-lamp

@Cowboy1980 Can you post your script...

I think a vibration sensor may work better in this case, and there are examples.

I have five battery powered MySensors nodes powered with CR123 lithium batteries. I set the limits at 100% at 3.0v and 0% at 1.9v. Now I just need a method for Vera to generate an alert when they drop near 0%.

Thank You for your suggestion. I will try with Energy Monitor Shield from Seeedstudio and connect it to MySensors gateway.

@ahhk said: mqtt-client-gateway Thanks Have installed the mqtt-client-gateway and works well, thanks a lot!

Maybe you van use this http://blog.gummibaer-tech.de/cul-stick-868433-im-selbstbau/ I have buildthis one also and use it in fhem (www.fhem.de)

For anyone whois interested in how I mounted the electronics into the lamp. I posted an article about this on my blog http://www.houtbewerken-voor-dummies.com/grenzen-verleggen-een-moodlight/ it's in Dutch but you can translate this with google translator.

Hi These sensors are really quite neat. I got quite accurate measurements from 4,9 to 44 litres/min, I couldn't go any higher, the output fed into the audio input on the PC with a simple and free frequency meter software. Amazing for a few dollars. The downturn is the pressure loss across the meter, 0.08 bars at 15 L/min rising to 0,69 bars at 41.8 L/min : Here are what I measured dP L/min flowmeter 15 0,08 18,4 0,04 24,7 0,21 26,5 0,24 30,7 0,29 34,2 0,4 37,3 0,51 40,0 0,63 41,8 0,72 42,5 0,69

Hi, this one looks very nice and not shouting "i am a sensor". I am just curious, how long do the batteries last?

yes. that's it what i want to know. Thanks.

well, here's the thing. I have 2 of those at home and looks like is the best way to sell this things to my wife! so ... I'll start with this. @AWI, I'm running with openHAB. I have also a VeraEdge here but ... I don't really like it very much. I think I haven't found the trick yet ...

@scalz I did the same, trying to decide between the two! It is true, I had mysensors working and a smile on my face within 20 mins of finding the website, including building the hardware on breadboard, so great!! With Souliss I am still reading and learning! Only have simple implementations so far. One thing I do like is the wireless local logic abilities, like you say, distributed gateways. I suppose with everything considered you are correct, souliss is far more involved a platform, in general but also from the end user side. I also find on the nodes I have experimented with, it is more memory intensive, but that might be my terrible implementation :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: !! Either way, these platforms are just amazing in their own rights, I dreamed of exactly what they offer a few years back and my studies and research always got in the way, but now its time to play! As @scalz says, I really admire what both developments have produced, just great engineering !!

@GuyP many posts ago you guided @Moshe-Livne to arduino cc/ file for downloading the bootloader files but I see only the files for 168 DIP and not 328P Do I use the 168p file?

My setup doesn't work. When i activate the relay directly it works. Pin 3 to ground does nothing. I used the sketch from Moshe. What can i do next?

Thanks, I will watch out for conflicting node id's

So many questions... And many of them is hard to answer without testing+playing around. Coming soon. "gateway-refactoring-branch" will soon be merged into development-branch. Try now if you want. ? ?? Relays usually have bot NO/NC outputs. Not sure I understand what you mean fully. Yes, see the signing support in library. Probably works on a nano but you have to test yourself. Hard to answer. Guess testing in your environment is the only way to know. Same answer as 7
