    • RE: 💬 Easy/Newbie PCB for MySensors

      @sundberg84, thanks so much for this board, I bought 10 of them. This has made my sensor projects much easier and they look better too! I think I will get some of the RFM69 version next.

      I have a lot of gel lead acid batteries (the 7.2AH type often used in UPSs), and I have been running an earlier prototype off that. I have now just changed over to your board and this is how I modified it to work the way I wanted:

      • Cut the track circled
      • Hard wired from the regulator side of the battery jumper to VCC on the Pro Mini
      • Bridged the booster In to Out
      • Changed the battery measuring resistors to 12k/180k for greater range

      This enabled me to run the board off 12V, keep an eye on the battery voltage, and run the rest from the LE33 regulator. It seems to be managing so far, with 3 x DS18B20 temperature sensors. I'm monitoring the fridge outside, inside and freezer temperatures with this module.

    • RE: Debugging with Myscontroller

      My understanding is that Myscontroller can only talk to the gateway, so if the node is not connecting to the gateway it will be invisible to Myscontroller. I am trying to resolve a similar situation, where I've burnt MysBootloader to a Arduino Pro Mini and it is not connecting to the gateway.

      @sundberg84, I've just tried it and that is a better solution than mine for running everything from the LE33. Thanks for taking the time to work that out!

      Cheers - Andrew
