Hi guys, I’ve been working on a project to make my “dumb” fan “smart”, initially I was going to use a RPi but the board is kind of large and not really portable. Then I discovered this ESP8266 board, it’s tiny, cheap, has Wifi built-in and requires no SD cards. Now my fan is “smart”, it can be con…

@Casper did you have any success integrating temperature? I received the little temp component you quoted above and I keep getting weird numbers then I unplug it from the NodeMCU and I get the same-ish numbers :slight_smile: either I have a busted component or I’m doing something wrong: int readi…

Yes I was looking at deep sleep mode too, but it’s not really practical. For this project, we’re broadcasting a web server constantly, and that takes a lot of power, even if you shutdown the module for a certain time (during sleep or nobody home), you still need to run the server for few hours, so t…

My bad I forgot to tell you to get the DHT22 instead, but what sketch are you using? Let me upload the sketch I use, it sends data to ThingSpeak every 5 min

Using my own/Google sketch where it just does a simple analogRead — it’s just super unreliable. I’ll look into the DHT22 and certainly would appreciate your sketch. Thanks buddy!!! EDIT: to be fair a simple Google search should probably do it :slight_smile: there’s a DHT library that every sample s…

Yes there’s a lot of examples on the internet, but these worked for me, you have 2 options: This sketch pushes data to ThingSpeak , so make sure you create an account have have your Write API key ready. This sketch broadcasts a webserver and the temp + hum will be queried when you load the webs…

It’s been a long time for me waiting for universal IR controller that cheap :grin: right now, I was able to write code and upload it to nodemcu. The web server is accessible also. But, the problem is with my infrared blaster, I;m not using IR module like yours, I’m using more simple IR module that…

[image] nico89s: With my phone camera, I didn’t see my IR LED is working Most of the newer phone camera filter off IR, that may be the reason you can’t see it. Try go nearer to your IR device, like few inch or even nearer to test, without modification, the range is very short.

my camera phone still able to view all of my remote, but not with my nodemcu. So I think my infrared is not working yet I test it with distance about 30-50 cm

Finally it works !! The problem was my IR LED that not working, now I able to send command to my samsung tv. I use sendRaw command just like OP’s But I have a problem with my AC remote, the decoder say it’s Panasonic, actually it’s Sharp remote for my Sharp AC. It looks like this : Encoding :…
