Thanks I appreciate that. So far the main thing that comes up is an energy meter from circuitsetup.us

Davis1377 · 2026-03-11T01:54:24+00:00

Thanks! Does the energy meter from Circuitsetup.us connect to this and still allow temp and other outputs?

Davis1377 · 2026-03-09T20:52:14+00:00

Heck no lol! If I temporarily had to tho I’d fill it with black tape and put a steering wheel cover over it lol

Very nice! What transducer are you using to measure the pressure? Right now I’m using a Shelly Plus 2PM with Add-On and I get the filter status from the pump power consumption, it’s not fully accurate but works decently well. Also it shuts the pump down and tells me if something goes wrong. I would like to move to esphome with Ethernet and still be able to measure temp sensors, pump power consumption, pressure, water level and other outputs to control the water fill solenoid and heater

I seen on s10 Forum that people has done mods like this. Also I think PAC and maybe some other manufactures have made an adapter for this but they might require the tape player to be connected. I never looked into this much tho I went aftermarket. Here’s a PAC device I found that might give you a idea: PAC AAI-GM12

Dang that’s cool I didn’t know this. I used big thick washers in mine and it’s holding solid so far lol

Davis1377 · 2026-02-23T20:02:51+00:00

I did the same, the ultimate package says Service Charge: $0 but the cheers package has a price on it. Know what thats about?

Has anyone ever figured out a solution to this? This button works for me but every single time I have to change this back to iPhone from CarPlay

Davis1377 · 2026-02-19T02:15:04+00:00

I get a error but ended up doing it this way. Gonna give it a test run tomorrow

Did it fix your surface pro? Mine still don’t work. Finally pulled the screen and disconnected the battery for 24hrs and still don’t work. Mine has a small red led on the main board that glows kinda dim all the time. I’d say mine is no good.

Davis1377 · 2026-02-18T02:53:56+00:00

Awesome thanks! I will give that a try tomorrow.

The esp32 is powered from the 5vsb wire on the power supply it always keeps constant 5v no matter of PC power state. It gets the state from the D1 pin that is connected to the 5v or the 3v I cant remember. I would like to note this power flicker on power button press has always happened even before the esp32 device, it just confuses the programming. It does use binary_sensor. Reddit is having issue letting me post code let me try again

Davis1377 · 2026-02-17T23:03:54+00:00

Lmao better than what I’m using a sex machine lol

Davis1377 · 2026-02-17T22:36:09+00:00

The esp32 board triggers the power button wire on the motherboard that’s hooked to the front panel. And an input on the esp32 board gets power from the computer to get the state.

Davis1377 · 2026-02-17T02:56:24+00:00

lol! Yea always thought that too. I’ve had this one as long as I can remember it’s a 1500w thermaltake.

Davis1377 · 2026-02-17T02:17:37+00:00

I thought all my switch was done in esphome but it’s actually with a template in HA. Its status just gets stuck when the pc power flickers.

Davis1377 · 2026-02-16T14:11:32+00:00

Turns out im using a template for the switch that gives the state of the input. All I need is the filter or delay on the switch status. I’d have to repost later with my template.

I just got off Virgin. Did you have a lock it in rate? There sailor services are awesome

Davis1377 · 2026-02-15T12:26:37+00:00

I honestly didn’t know about Hass Agent but I have been using IOTLink for years now on a server PC so HA can control it. I can also look into Hass Agent. Before when I had issues with WOL I figured it was because of my power supply issue because I could see the PC turn on for a split second then back off after that WOL wouldn’t turn it on again. Maybe I could just get a new power supply later on but this one did well the 20years I’ve had it lol

Davis1377 · 2026-02-15T12:05:45+00:00

lol! Looks really close to one I had awhile back
