This video shows how easy it is to put a bespoke project together with ESP Easy. I go over the hardware build as well as the set up of the ESP Easy and configuring the rules so this project can control temperature. All this is implemented within the ESP, and operated independently from a home automation system.
ESP Easy releases: github.com/let...
Rules shown in the video: drive.google.c...

I enjoyed this video and the tutorial. I would move the Relay off GPIO 0 given GPIO 0 is one of the special function pins on the EPS8266 and pulsing a gas furnace or boiler for a second probably is best avoided :).. Other than that, this is a great little project.

Very nice video. Well explained and useful. Was looking to build something like this which I can also control from my Domoticz server. That will be easy using the remote control command. The only small "issue" with your code is that it will keep firing of TurnOn or TurnOff. As soon as the temp gets too low it will take a while for it to reach the low-temp again. All that time it will fire the TurnOn every 15 seconds, setting the GPIO and OLED values while there is no need. Probably not harmful but something to keep in mind. Oh and since your protecting the max and min temperatures you can set with the push buttons (which is a good idea) I would suggest also limit the temp range you can set remotely using SetTemp. Now you can easilly mess with the system.

Good video. Some things have changed with the mega build, so I had to work around a few things. I put my relay signal on GPIO 12 to better manage my expectations about how the relay turns on/off. I still can't get the screen to display whether the relay is on or off. No big deal though.

ESP Easy can be configured from the terminal (serial) interface. I like to do this for the Wifi SSD and Wifi Password and IP address. This will sav you the "trouble" of going to the initial setup page on 192.168.4.1. I'm pretty sure the new ESP Flasher uses these command to configure the Wifi settings etc.. you can enter in the tool. www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/ESPEasy_Command_Reference

Seems strange on the dummy that when you set to triple that on occasion it goes to single, then you see 4 outputs. The 4th doing nothing of course. But confusion if someone else looks at your settings. I tried this on the mega f/W several times and on occasion the triple defaults back to single on its own.

Thanks for your video. I built this project and it works quit well. Is it possible to change the SetTemp via mqtt? I sent the command through the link and the new SetTemp trigger is added. So far i can't change the trigger value if i use mqtt. i have all values from the thermostat via mqtt, temperature, humidity, and what is the value of SetTemp but don't know what topic should i use to change the value of SetTemp from the mqtt. Is there any particular topic or command for that? Thanks

Hi. A great project is great to place the buttons on the thermostat. But is it possible to create a way to control SetTemp via an incoming message from the MQTT server? (homeassistant thermostat without node red). Responsively can send value to "Bedroom thermostat / Local / SetTemp", but esp thermostat ignores this change does not load value into SetTemp from MQTT

@@csongorvarga Thank you for answer. I am a beginner and I am just trying to penetrate the secret :) if I understand correctly, then the rule could be set when: if the status changes on the MQTT theme -homeassistant / thermostat / local / TempSet then TaskValueSet 2.1,% eventvalue% .... (value read from topic) If it doesn't bother you much, can I ask for help with writing a rule? For a long time I was looking for an ideal thermostat that could be controlled with buttons even through homeassisatnt and this one is great. It is a pity that the instructions do not include an easy way to integrate into homeasssiatnt. Thank you very much for your work.

From script you just add a PWM,, where state goes from 0 to 1023. But I think the ESP 8266 cannot do PWM on every pin, so please check before.

Not really. My whole point in this video, that this device functions as a thermostat on it's own. And this is thanks to the rules. You will not be able to define such rules in Tasmota or ESPurna. With those you can only build a dumb interface (buttons, oled, relay), but you need something behind it to actually control it.

Csongor Varga I’m not saying you *should* use Tasmota, but just wanted to clarify that rules are fully implemented in Tasmota. You can set variables, run events based on temperature data, publish custom MQTT, etc etc. I do motion activated light operation based on sunset/sunrise times at my Lat/Long.
