    • RE: MySensor + Whisper Node + RFM69

      @Moebius-Lutching Thank you. I think I got it working, as I added the RFM config, but also needed to comment out a few other things (I forget which). Ill still take a look at your sketches if you don't mind. Out of curiosity, why did you move away from MySensors?

      @gohan The board and documentation are quite good. The quality of the board assembly is very impressive. I also think Mike has done a great job in terms of support and responsiveness when I had questions. Does that make it worth $25? To me, yes. However, like Moebius suggested, the board has a lot to it that I likely won't need for each sensor, but I am going to stick with them for now. I can solder, and I do a decent job, but I simply don't like taking the time to do it anymore, especially if I can support creativity like Mike @ Talk2. If I were about to do a lot of nodes, I would probably look for a cheaper solution, but for a few things here and there, the Whisper Node has been great. Clean power, LOW power consumption, and a small footprint.

    • RE: MySensor + Whisper Node + RFM69

      @Moebius-Lutching were you ever able to get these working? I am not able to get the whisper node's to see each other when I have one setup as a serial gateway and the other as a simple relay actuator. I get an FPAR error on the sensor node, meaning it can't find a parent. On the GW side, I never see a radio message arrive.

    • RE: Setting up Indigo Plugin and adding sensors

      Are you guys still experiencing this? Make sure you are using 1.5 of the library, as I didn't find any luck with 1.4, 1.6. As a side note, I am refreshing the code Marcel contributed to make 2.0 work with Indigo 7. So far, its not been many changes needed

    • RE: Controlling Blinds.com RF Dooya Motors with Arduino and Vera

      Are you sure you have the economy shades? Ive noticed they have disappeared from Blinds.com, or at least I don't see them anymore.

      I just confirmed with Blinds.com online chat that the economy blinds aren't available anymore, or at least for now. They stated there was a defect in the motors, so they had to pull the product and work on a redesign. No timeline on a release.
