Hardware

@Nca78 Yes, I have been following along, that is why I posted the link. Maybe this one is comparable or hopefully better?

Also, the LoRa modules are expensive compared to 69s.

@Tmaster I don't know. Maybe ask Vera support?

Found this on arduino.cc forum. I think there should be a way for creating different servo objects for each servo but I don't know how to do that. Any sugestion from @mfalkvidd ? #include <Servo.h> Servo myservo[6]; int pinAttch = 0; // variable to store pin attachment int servWrite = 0; // variable to store servo writing void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); for(pinAttch = 2; pinAttch < 7; pinAttch++) { myservo[pinAttch].attach(pinAttch); } } void loop() { for(servWrite = 2; servWrite < 7; servWrite++) { myservo[servWrite].write(80); delay(2000); } exit(0); }```

@m26872 said in Encapsulated transformers instead of traditional switching power supplies like Hi-Link: for me the sunny season is too short. I havn't yet tried to use solar batteries in winter so maybe I have the same problems (despite the fact that I'm living 3 degrees south of you), but I have backup solution for very cloudy winter days - regular battery charger.

check! funny.. Your post's image, and ebay's image, are both swapped horizontally. Or is it the chinese printing it wrongly? EDIT: But they have the price just right ;) EDIT 2: Interesting topic tekka. @Tinimini: What did you find out using an ATtiny85? any tests? any results?.. any problems?

I have finally found the time to upload the project here. I really like it so far although I am still trying to make it even better ;)

Problem solved with pull-up! Thanks!

Make sure to doublecheck the G on the 4.7uF cap if you have rev 7 or 8 because it may be wrong. (this is fixed in rev 9)

@GaryStofer well, great to hear you nailed it!

I know but I am not going to waste more time on them

Try flow-meters for coffermakers. Like https://www.juraprofi.de/Jura-Ersatzteile/Sensoren-und-Sicherungen/Flowmeter-Durchflussmelder::2901.html

Thank you @rvendrame , it works, I attach a Ceech's schema, using D4 instead of D3 :-) [image: 1495557728365-astriarista_mosfet.png]

@m26872 - I do this too, hotter the iron is the better for me. Hotter and quicker wins the race.

Welcome to the MySensors community @g-man ! Use the pins for miso, mosi and sck described at https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/pro-micro--fio-v3-hookup-guide/hardware-overview-pro-micro Looks like they are in the same position as Pro Mini, so you can just use the normal radio connection instructions and pretend you have a Pro Mini :)

Hello @lafleur ! What do you use as antenna?

OK, I have just found out that others are reporting 27uA overheads so my 24uA is conservative. Another Sensebender +nrf24l01+ I have is about 24.5uA during sleeping

Personally I would use optocouplers. Using optocouplers gives you galvanic isolation of the two systems and prevents one system from negatively affecting the other. Not that it would under normal operation, but if something were to happen to either the UPS or to the node, you wouldn't get a back-feed of bad power into the other system. I have used the approach that @gohan mentions on my garage door opener node, but I only did that after testing the optocoupler approach and failed. Since you have LEDs that are being driven, the optocoupler approach should be no problem.
