WTF, now it works.

Typical.

Will leave it in place until we are out and about again and see what happens, but simulating the presence triggers a few seconds apart seems to do it just fine and both work independently as well now.

Fantastic, what I did find, is that when I tested it, the delay still seemed active when I did a re-deploy, I think possibly a small bug in NR?

How many Amps would this geyser be?
I want to add this sonoff: https://www.communica.co.za/products/sme-sonoff-energy-monitor-pow-r2 rated 16A

I think the sticker on the side has the information you are looking for

Aaaww... Its a baby geyser.

Yes the POW R2 is rated to 15-16A, this geyser will be about 9A.

Oh and get it here https://www.smartkit.co.za/product/sonoff-pow-r2/

Our devices are all Type Approved for use in SA.

Wish my geyser had a simple to find sticker like that.

But it's only a 200l so surely can't be that potent.

Shouldn't be more than 3000W - but you never know

From what I understand any residentialgeyser that was installed after September last year can't be more than 3kw

Yeah probably way less than 2kW I reckon, but can't even find branding on the thing.

@phaktza - any news on the Shelly's in SA? Wanting another Shelly One

 

[xrapidx]

Can anyone recommend a cheap battery wireless thermometer, with hydrometer will be a bonus. Getting some expensive wine out of storage - and going to store it in a cupboard - out of guest eyes

Apparently all the tests are in Bulgarian, they're being translated. Then we certify. So it could still be a while.

Looks like there's a market for smart geysers.

I'd like to know what the temperature is inside.

That’s what Geyserwise does already.

But smart geysers are a pointless thing really because it would only apply to archaic technology like running them off electricity.

I heard from a couple of guys now that you can run a geyser off a PV system. In that case I'd be interested in measuring temperature and controlling the geyser based on other devices, solar power yield etc.

It would be nice if it could be integrated with other systems, however.
