🥳Latest project and upcoming tutorial - A D1 Mini PWM (PC) Fan controller. The whole thing is powered by a single 12VDC supply! Based on a DALLAS Temperature sensor it'll change the speed of the fan. I'm hoping it'll be useful for 'Media Centre' Cabinets or 'Holiday' Light Controller Enclosures, E.G. #WLED #xLights 🎬Get subscribed to my YouTube channel (Link in the BIO) for the full tutorial and more. 🎬

#nailedit 😎 So Dave... what's that on the work-bench? Why thank you for asking... It's the new Humidifier model and the "What can I put a D1 Mini in Next" / "Make it #Smart " Project. All the controls; 0-100% Mist (not just 3-speeds), Water-Level (Wet/Dry) and Night-Light LED are either controlled or sensed via ESPHome on a D1 Mini and made available to Home Assistant 🥳 Just a few more 'Code-y' bits to sort out and of course the stand-alone automation part. #StayTuned #ESPhome #HomeAssistant #MakeItSmart #Tutorial

Loving these Pre-flashed ESPHome ATHOM Smartplugs with power monitoring so much, I brought a load more. All the big equipment has one now and I plan to add monitoring to a lot more. Check out my YouTube channel (link in Bio) for a guide to add them to Home Assistant. #athom #smarthome #HomeAssistant #homeautomation #energysaving #powermonitoring #energysmart #moneysaving

Oops - Connecting & Disconnecting a Serial Adaptor to the UART Bus of my #sonoff #nspanel lifted a pad and some tracking 😯 Luckily, my soldering is #legendary and I was able to fix it. I also built a FDTI isolator switch box. 🤘 However, if anyone wants to sponsor me with a Desk Microscope... Get it touch!🤣🤣

Getting there.... Loads of Icons / buttons for IoT control. Yesterday I programmed this #ESPHome Thermostat and another HMI touch display page for it. With 3D printed mounts and templates for graphics & code included - I'm hoping this will be the only #NSPanel tutorial you'll even want. #Sonoff #Nextion #HomeAssistant #Tutorial
