Hi,
I want to extend my emonpi and try to get a better control about my heat pump. It’s consuming too much energy and I want to write my own software based on the temperatures.
First thing are another 6 temperature sensors. I’m not so familar with the hardware, so I want to ask if the following modules will work together or if there is a better option.
I’d be inclined to use a SonoffPOW (I tend to buy my direct from Itead) for controlling on/off as it will also give you power readings. Flash it with Tasmota and you have a really flexible system.
There are 2 versions of the POW, series 1 and R2. The series 1 may be ok for your needs.
Thanks!
Sounds interesting. But more expensive than a raspberry board. There is a module with 4 relays availible, too.
There are so many possibilities…
That sounds indeed as an easy solution. I forgot to tell that there are three pumps which I like to control. I will use contactors for the three phases of the heat pump, so I have to install some hardware anyway.
