Dear all,

first of all, many thanks for this thread which helps me a lot.

I know this post is old, but I give you my contribution in return.

I completely rewrite the code to make it modular and more reusable.

I wrote 3 classes (Dimmer, DimmerDriver an extendedCapacitiveSensor) and a two sketches for Arduino (one without MySensors and one with it).

In order to compile the scketches, all files must be saved either in the same directory or in a directory listed in the ARDUINO_LIB_PATH or in the USER_LIB_PATH environnement variable.

Have fun.
DoccY.

PS since the posts are limited in length and I can't upload files due to forum policy, I will provide the files in the next messages.

  The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
  between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
  The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
  repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
  network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.
