Features

  • Control buttons, watch the temperature and get current states from your browser.
  • Custom text on the SPA pump display.
  • Custom sound instead of just beeping is possible.
  • OTA: Update firmware "over the air". Super convenient when mounted inside the pump.
  • Simple to build. No hardware changes needed on the SPA pump. Just remove the display, disconnect the 6- or 4-pin ribbon cable and plug it into this device.
  • Timer for chlorine addition and filter change. Hit the button on the web interface and it will count the days for you. (@Bankaifan)
  • Electricity cost estimation and more..
  • MQTT support! Now you can control the SPA from Home Assistant, OpenHab etc. (@faboaic, @877dev)
  • Schedule events like heater on/off at specific dates, with repeat functionality.
  • Listen to input signal on one pin and trigger a signal on another pin on desired events. For instance let solar panels turn on/off heater.

BOM

  • 8 channel bidirectional level converter
