Temperature / humidity node with OLED display
-
I've just built this temperature / humidity node, with a 1.3" OLED display:
The OLED is a 128x64 I2C version, driven by an SSD1306 chip, and will display 8 lines of text - but as I'm short-sighted :smile: , I've used double-height text, showing time (from Domoticz), temperature, humidity and battery voltage.
The node uses a Ceech board, and is powered by a Samsung phone battery with a micro-USB connector (top left) to charge it. There is an HTU21D temperature / humidity sensor bottom left. Connectors have been judiciously bent (!), so that the base will fit on the box.
The sketch is based on Ceech's example sketch for the board, with the inclusion of a cut-down, text-only library for the SSD1306 (to save space).

I've used the following:
-
Ceech ATmega328p board w/ ESP8266 and NRF24l01+ socket LTC4067 lithium battery charger - here
-
HTU21D temperature and humidity sensor
-
SSD1306 1.3" I2C 128x64 display - here
-
micro USB breakout board
The sketch is included below (I've referenced the source of this in the comments at the beginning):

WRT the display: I've found that there are different drivers for different size displays, which require corresponding different libraries. There is a 0.96" version, which I originally used, which used the SSD1306 driver and library, whereas many of the 1.3" versions use the SH1106. All I know is that the 1.3" display I use worked straight away, with the original library - YMMV.

@Dwalt Currently, yes. I haven't done any measurements yet on current / discharge rate, but I can power it from USB and charge the battery at the same time. I may add a push button to turn on the display.
