ESP32 Sprinkler Controller Hardware

Hey everyone, just wanted to share a project I've worked on for a while now.

​Like a lot of people here, I wanted a local-first sprinkler controller that plays nice with Home Assistant. But if you're still using those standard mechanical relay modules, you probably know they aren't always the most reliable long-term.

​I designed a custom PCB that replaces the mechanical relays with solid-state components. It holds a standard ESP32 dev board that you can actually pop right out of the socket, so you're not locked into my code and can flash ESPHome or whatever you want onto it. The software it comes with is entirely local and uses MQTT to talk to HA.

​I've been running these successfully on my own lawn (and selling them a bit on the side) for about a year now. If you're looking for a solid hardware base for irrigation this summer and don't want to design your own board from scratch, you can check them out here: https://intellidwell.net/sprinklercontroller

​Curious to hear what everyone else is running for their irrigation hardware this season!

I'm the owner of Intellidwell, my own IoT/embedded design company. Last year I started selling a sprinkler controller that I designed and built, link here: https://intellidwell.net/sprinklercontroller , but now I'm working on the next model.

Many of you in this reddit forum and others have voiced some things you wish the first version had. Such as hardware buttons and a screen, cloud interface(not just local web access), integrated rain sensor and weather data, and more zones.

Right now the Intellidwell sprinkler controller prioritizes local control and simplicity. What I want to do is expand to a feature rich environment while still prioritizing cost and user privacy and security. I'd love to hear some feedback for what you wish your controller did, but doesn't. Or something you wish it did better. Or even why you love your controller. Any feedback is helpful! Thanks in advance!

IntelliSignup

Became frustrated with how ugly signup genius is, so I made a replacement that isn't crawling with ads. It's free for now but I may charge a few dollars for account creation if it gets popular, just to offset the cost of running my 24/7 server. Check it out!
