Apparently this does not work with #Openhasp can really be arsed writing some custom firmware at 10pm on a Saturday night... if its even possible. Other options are now being considered 🤔

Can anyone reccommend a decent light switch replacement that works with #homeassistant #nodered currently have these #esp32 2.8 CYD that work well but they are limited to #openhasp and #MQTT prefer something 4" ish that will run on no neutral UK. Kind of like a NSPanel but cheaper as I need 12

Some more progress/ides of home display for #homeassistant using #openhasp

Any suggestions ?

Heating controls

In-house display project going well.

Home page has a set of main dials which are clickable to drill down. Eg "Inside Temp" dial takes you to heating controls.

Need to do more on the sub-pages.

My 5" display ESP32-8048S050C just arrived. I followed #openhasp instructions here www.openhasp.com/0.7.0/hardware/sunton/es... to flash.

Just ordered a cheap yellow display for a #homeassistant display.

Will probably flash with #openhasp for easy setup.
