• I'm making a smart thermostat at the moment, using an Arduino dev board and about £15 of other components.

    Time will tell if it actually works. Quite a few of the iot thermostats are based on Arduino anyway.

  • That's another thing I've been tempted by but know that I'd never get round to sorting out properly. Has someone done the heavy lifting on the software?

    At the minute I've moved the thermostat closer to the relay which has fixed my immediate problem. I suspect this will become the long term solution. I'll continue to research the relative merits of each and every system and never make a decision.

  • Yes and no. Plenty of sample implementations out there, but nothing that works off the shelf.

    I'm a little out of my depth tbh, but I'm enjoying learning as I go.

  • There's a Raspberry Pi version, check that thread. I've got a thermometer and a Raspberry Pi, not got around to trying it out yet...
