AC dimmer for 230v with smd relays

v1ck last edited by

Hello,
I recently found a quite good SMD relay - the AQH series :
https://www.panasonic-electric-works.com/pew/eu/downloads/ds_61613_en_aqh.pdf

Which comes also in random type ( non zero-cross ) up to 1.2A

any ideas how to build AC dimmer using these ?

Hello,

Theese relays is already with triacs. You could look at themes in here: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4020/controlling-an-inductive-ac-load/2

...and here: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/3238/ac-light-dimmer-with-2x-triac

There is discusion about it, and also shematics. Check it

I would really like to get OTA working here as it's freezing outside and I have to go there to update the software in the greenhouse control system. So please, can we have a 'how to' step-by-step guide to OTA? Please? S.
Sensor to detect marijuana vape/smoke

There are air quality monitors that can detect VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and some that claim to pick up marijuana smoke specifically. Devices like the Airthings Wave Plus, uHoo Air Sensor, or Plume Labs Flow could help identify changes in air quality. Another option is checking with industrial-grade smoke detection companies that provide sensors for businesses and schools, and some of them may also have solutions suited for home use. If you want more information on vape-related products, including how they work and their components, check out Geek Bar Pulse X Platinum Edition. Understanding vape devices can help recognize patterns of use or detect scents earlier.

@OldSurferDude Thanks! I didn't touch the Arduino IDE for a while and forgot that the MYSBootloader doesn't come included in the Mysensor's library... My bad. Thanks for the link! I should had searched first... I use the OTA feature since 2017... It works well. So well that I forgot how to load the bootloader... Regards!

@wrendral said in "Remote Irrigation with LoRaWAN: LM27313 Challenges and PCB Design": I will go with a Li-Po Battery type: 304048 3.7V 1200mAh Might work, but maybe the internal protection will trigger with the high current peaks. I'd suggest you plan a 0 Ohm, (2512/THT) resistor as R2 and then replace it with a 100Ohm/1Watt if the protection triggers.

It probably has to do with fewer people buying them once summer ends, so companies might lower prices to clear out stock before winter.

Gawd bless ya @OldSurferDude , that just about answered every question I have to date, I especially thank you for indicating whether the item named is a software or hardware product. On reading into the Cerbo GX capabilities I was very impressed with its sophistication and, just as you said, I will have to break the complicated parts down into bite-sized pieces and build from there. It started with an idea for a project, essentially to take data on battery state of charge (SoC) from the Cerbo GX and use an Arduino Nano or ESP8266 to build a strategy so that I would have sufficient hot water in the morning, consistent with having enough battery power left in the evening. Only on further inspection did it occur that the Node Red software built into the Cerbo GX could do this for me...and thus the possibility that a wireless hot water temperature sensor (transducer) could be fabricated to feed that data into the Cerbo GX; hence my path to here. I've dabbled in programming in C, mainly through the Arduino IDE, and in a previous life part of my work involved programming PLCs for industrial automation, so I am somewhat familiar with 'tech', but I lost interest once most systems seemed to go Windows based. In the intervening years the 'tech' has moved on apace and has left me behind, which is why I've struggled to follow the jargon, akin to trying to fit the second piece in a large jigsaw puzzle. Once the fundamentals are there I'll catch on. So please, kind contributors, be tolerant of the silly questions we newbies ask, we won't always be newbies, and I'll be back for sensors stuff once I've tamed the red-hot node and sorted out my LBQTTs Best wishes....MM
