synopsis

There is a sonoff Pow wifi switch in the space, connected to a powerstrip near the soldering table (in a brown plastic case with a toggle switch on top of it).

The idea is to gradually add them to every power strip so we can:

  1. measure (over)current
  2. switch them off centrally if the space is closed

It currently runs the famous Tasmota firmware.

NOTE: the switch is built in a box with an external toggle switch. This switch has potentially 240v on its contacts so don't open it and touch the contacts when it is plugged in!

You can toggle it via wifi on h1r-2067.lan (subject to change)

todo

  • add custom firmware to the Pow versions so that an external switch can be used in conjunction with the power measurement
  • add MQTT server that the switches can connect to, together with the space state
  • make MQTT connect to spaceAPI and Power page
  • add MOAR sonoffs
