Intense Nutrients Matt Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Seen a few variations of this tech now. Excellent stuff your doing bro keep on going with it dude I will put my order in for my unit now I've always wanted a play with this tech but cant learn code for shit I want a unit that can do the following: Web and screen based logging of galvanic isolated PH/EC/DO meters and peristaltic pumps for metered dosing 3 rechargeable cubes with dht 22's in that could be placed wireless and link back to the main hub that could then turn on/off a humidifier at setpoint etc And a Couple of temp probes for water All in one Dwc master controller basically Good luck with it all 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKsFinest Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I'm in the same boat can't get my head around it id definitely order one though if it was plug and play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I copied and pasted my way through everything ive done. Node red has loads of modules you can download that do the clever shit. The wireless devices would wanna use Xbee 433mhz modems (ive used them on drones and they work well and were easy to setup) 1s lipo batteries and usb chargin circuits...and some 3d printed enclosures. Pi, node red and a load of sensors and wires would do the rest..i saw a node for automatically exporting data to google graphs...be a fair old learnin curve but theres loads of help out there:) My next project is to rebuild my little system into an old ammo crate complete with MCB's, Modbus power meter, contactor and powercon outlets...passes some time while civilisation collapses cheers fella 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote be a fair old learnin curve but theres loads of help out there:) People's idea of help is the finished box with a pretty pink ribbon round it with a personal guarantee, failure of which is the forfeiture of one's soul... Sorry - it just tickled me pink! However, it was useful to see how others might look at this same project and gave me a few ideas. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrrichiet Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Nah @KayDog as @UKsFinest said, all one wants is Plug and Play. Not too much too ask, surely? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highcontrast Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Was up all night trying to get the dht22 sensor to work. Just returns the check wiring error. Try'd a few variations from online sources but couldn't figure it out. I did however setup some led's set to dim/toggle via the node red UI so i did make some progress and do feel a lot more comfortable with the node red interface. @Gsp1ce you remember how yours is wired ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayDog Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I've done the basics of a flowchart so I know what's happening where. So I thought I'd look at the components list to see how much it will cost - and more than 70% of stuff is out of stock - presumably because of covid. I've sent off 2 emails (one last week) and no replies. I'll spend the while learning node-red instead! Good luck to those in this project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iShouldCoCo Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) Interesting stuff this! I loike a bit of Pi tinkering... I have been looking at this recently and thinking of ordering the bits for a spare pi I have https://kizniche.github.io/Mycodo/ Edited May 9, 2020 by iShouldCoCo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
