This project uses an ESP8266-12E and benefits the Cayenne to make a smart outlet, in the case of using a fan for example, the user can determine the minimum temperature from which the outlet will be energized.
The air conditioners, have thermostats, since the fans do not, we often want them to be turned off or connected from a temperature, just like the air equipment, well, using Cayenne to monitor, an ESP8266 could do I also used a non-virtual local interface, an LCD display to monitor even without a computer or smartphone.
I Used:
ESP8266-12E Doit
PNP Transistor BC557
Relay 220VAC / 5VCC -1A
Two Resistors
An LED
I2C 20X4 LCD Display
An outlet
Several jumpers
It’s almost a must, I’m very busy with the opening of my Blog here in Brazil, so I do not put my complete design as I would like, but I really like the community and I will do it yes.
I think Brazil is a reference in Portuguese Cayenne, the language makes difficult, and the lack of knowledge too, so I will try to use my knowledge and my experience to help people here in Brazil.
Soon I will send an email to those responsible for the Cayenne to talk about it.
Sounds very fun in Brazil! I have never been to Brazil but I very much want to go. You should post a link to your blog so we can read it. I would love to make you a Cayenne representative in Brazil…do you run maker workshops in Brazil to educate people about electronics, IoT, Arduino, etc…?
Think you could post your code for others to follow along?
