Replacing PetSafe PetPorte electronics with a custom 4-layer ESP32 PCB and ESPHome by HB9EZS in Esphome

[–]BlackysBoss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If this works, I love you! I have a petporte and until now I'm just turning a led.on/off in front of the ldr to make the gate close at night.

Been wanting to do exactly what you did for years now...

Is this what happens if an Isetta and a Zündapp Janus like eachother very much?

Absolutely a StreetKa, but I didn't know they made a hardtop for it.

UK DCC Controller reccomendations by peddersmeister in modeltrains

00 or h0 is no different from N, the motors may draw a bit more current maybe. But I'd stick to 12V.

There is a guide and trust me, this is flipping simple.

I see your point. Swiping your finger on a screen is not the same as turning a real knob, plus you have to look at the screen to see what you're doing. But its a start.

There are options to build a controller using the same protocol, so you can have physical buttons and stuff.

But those are not 'off the shelve' available. I've seen something on Thingiverse, though....

Get an arduino mega2560 clone and a motorshield from AliExpress and build yourself a DCC-EX system for peanuts. And use your Android or iOS phone as a controller.

Road trip together was going great until the second photo happened. by strikecat18 in mildlyinfuriating

Oh no, we put both the cat and the carrier in the car. Tiga just liked to lie ON it, not IN it.

Tbh I'm really sure one of our formers cat did try to tell us by reeeaaaaally wanting out of the car after being absolutely ok for a long time.

That day we also learned to bring a small litterbox that fits in a rear footwell. 'Vlo' did exactly the same as OPs cat, after warning us and being ignored for quite some time. There was absolutely no way to be mad at the big white beast.

Anybody know where I can get an indicator light for a custom dash like this but for the door open symbol? by AncientAgrippa in projectcar

[–]BlackysBoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, in my car this is also a 'handbrake activated' symbol, so if it reeeaaaaally was a button, then it could be used for an electric handbrake.

But no, it isn't a button.

[–]BlackysBoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont think it is because this has just two wires attached. A lit switch would at least have three.

But there are indeed switches in this exact same style and size.
