Amazing idea. No need to spend more for additional smart switches. Thanks for sharing ❤️

wonderful and superb creative idea thanks for sharing your valuable creativity. big thumbs up

[@the_vccground]

Thanks a lot for your appreciation. You have become my inspiration Sir. Friends, if you want to learn about SMPS working & fault finding, must subscribe to HASEEB ELECTRONICS channel. It's really worth subscribing 👍

[@kamilsobolak3316]

Hello, Thank you for this info full video. Can you recommend any market ready Digital Input board for this purpose? Because is hard to use "plain" GPIO for any application.

[@the_vccground]

Buy an eight channel relay board for this project and drive it directly from the GPIOs...

[@kamilsobolak3316]

@@the_vccground but I do ask for INPUT application. Any recommendation?

[@the_vccground]

@@kamilsobolak3316 okay, if you are asking for a mobile app to control all the switches, you can try Tasmota Remota (Android) or Tasmotrol (Apple). Both are good.

[@kamilsobolak3316]

@@the_vccground no.... I do ask for input channel board... With transistors etc. In the other words... Can I put 11m long wire with reed switch to GPIO ? I suppose not....

[@the_vccground]

@@kamilsobolak3316 Although I am using a DIY water level controller at my house with around 8 meters of CAT5 Lan cable connected directly to the GPIOs and it is working well without any problem. You first try connecting your cable directly to GPIOs. My guess is, it should work. In case you face any problem, then you can use a logic level shifter/convertor to amplify the signal. Use its 5V side to connect your long wire and connect the 3.3v side to the microcontroller side. I had tried this too in the past and it had worked fine with longer cables...

Hello my friend. Really need your help. I just bought some sonoff basic switches which are a newer model PCB. These are labelled Sonoff RF R2 V1.3 on the PCB. The chip is the ESP8285, but the circuit layout is DIFFERENT to what you show in your videos. What we need to know is where the GPIO connections are for this board? Do you have an updated video for this revision? Many thanks

[@the_vccground]

Please share a few pictures of the new circuit board on "vccground" telegram channel to let me help you out.

[@thegreencorner9511]

​@@the_vccgroundwe have the same pcb version and design.. do you have an updated version of this tutorial? it will be a great help.

[@awesomedee5421]

can this be done with the sonoff clones too, or it only works on the original sonoff?

[@the_vccground]

Yes, can be implemented on clones also

[@farmaforpresident8138]

Great! Would love to see a similar video on 4ch pro!

[@the_vccground]

Dear friend, 4Ch pro also uses ESP8285 chip, hence it can be modified in the same way as we did in this video. If tou still have any more query, do reply. 👍

[@farmaforpresident8138]

Yeah but it may have relays, switches rf receiver etc atached to them, so not all of them are available. Also would be nice to know which of them have internal or external pull ups

[@the_vccground]

@@farmaforpresident8138 Okay, I'll try for that 👍

[@kamilsobolak3316]

[@hakamal-taher8244]

Greate Ideas, i tried all but its not working with Moblie app amazon alexa or google home, i did not try home assistant but will give it a try. i tried also to use MQTT to connect to the device but its not communicating, i might have missed something, am sure i folowed the steps in your vid but i cannot see the missing part. appreciate if you can help in more details for the MQTT connection. Can you elaborate more on how to connect to mobile app amazon alexa or google home? many thanks in advance.

[@the_vccground]

Which mobile app you are talking about ?

[@hakamal-taher8244]

amazon alexa and Google home

Tasmota

[@nikinik3583]

Hi vccground. I use RX and TX pins to control relays. But when device starts or restarts relays switches fast two times. Maybe it tries to communicate. After that it is OK. Could I fix it not to do this?

[@the_vccground]

No, this is the normal behaviour of serial pins. To avoid, you can use any other pins...

[@nikinik3583]

Thanks@@the_vccground . But I tried GPIO2 and with it there is one fast switching when device starts. Main relay does not have this problem.

[@the_vccground]

@@nikinik3583 Use any one of the free GPIO's shown in Blue colour at 1:35 in the video. There would be no fast switching on those pins.

[@the_vccground]

@@nikinik3583 @Niki Nik Although the best pins that don't do fast switching while bootup are GPIO3, 12, 13, 14 but they are already used by Sonoff. So if we want to add more relays we will have to accept the fast switching with them . 😀

[@luizhenriquepontesbattagli4676]

Hey, is it possible to adapt a sonoff basic R3 to receive radiofrequency signal? Like, transform it in a sonof basic R3RF?

[@the_vccground]

Never tried but yes it can be done by adding a rf receiver module to it.

[@luizhenriquepontesbattagli4676]

Oh, nice. Do you know how can I do this?

[@the_vccground]

@@luizhenriquepontesbattagli4676 Sure, share both side pictures of your Sonoff PCB on vccground telegram channel and I'll guide you further over there...

Hi, can this be combined with ewelink?

[@the_vccground]

No

[@khudhinthanehpo_han2645]

If we had did this to the sonoff basic. Can we add the sensor like your vid #29 ?

[@the_vccground]

No, that works on a different custom designed firmware.

[@rokisantos5918]

I want to use sonoff pro r3 as irrigation with master Valve

[@the_vccground]

Please explain your concern in detail to let me understand and then suggest a solution.

[@actionfire3196]

After doing this will the ewelink app work

[@the_vccground]

No. But you can backup original Sonoff firmware before flashing Tasmota, in case you would like to return to the factory settings.

[@gopalwaghchaware2142]

Can we work this device only 5 VDC

[@the_vccground]

Yes, you can. Share a picture of the circuit board on my telegram "vccground" and I will guide you to locate the 5V input terminals...

[@thegreencorner9511]

hello do you have a pdf wiring diagram for this?

[@the_vccground]

No, as it's simple to do. I've provided all GPIO locations. You just need to solder wires to those GPIOs and connect their other ends to a relay module. That's it. Isn't it easy...?

[@thegreencorner9511]

​@@the_vccgroundim confused, that in the description of the video there's a part listed dc buck converter but when i see the parts assembled in the video i cant see the dc buck converter being connected, please enlighten me.
