this kind of optic fiber is probably only plastic so for a full DIY , you can use also fishing wire with a big power led or an old chistmass tree optic fiber lighted.....
I think the comment in the routine
void measureBattery() {
// R1 = 1MOhm, R2 = 220 kOhm
Should be
void measureBattery() {
// R3 = 1MOhm, R2 = 220 kOhm
(R3)
Is it possible to add (comment out) some lines how to calculate the battery percentage and send this via gw.sendBatteryLevel (batteryPcnt)
Great sketch!

I am using them at 12V so the power would be ~4W. Not too much but still enough to get the sink hot!
The voltage makes no difference. 5A is still 5A.
you are right brain fart
@samppa
yes, but you saw the little point functions your arduino is very capable of, yes?
if you post your attempt at a sketch to control your fan (or even pseudo code) we can certainly help you code it up for Vera.
@Nca78 Yes, I was actually thinking using DIP switch (or even more easy to read thumbwheel switch) to give a unique ID to each node! As soon as I receive the extra radio modules I ordered, I'll test that.
@Grubstake I'm afraid you're right! But it's ok to have just a few days of battery life. As I wrote, it might be often disassembled and reassembled.
