First project. Esp32 landscape zone lighting for home assistant
Why buy an off the shelf transformer at home Depot for $100 when you can spend $150 and DIY? Parts listed didn't cost $150 but I originally bought a different power supply that was too big and a few other odds and ends. Even with the extra cost, I'm much happier having local control vers another random app on my phone with questionable home assistant integration.
It's up and working but needs a few tweaks to clean up some wiring. I bought stand offs to fix the mounting holes that don't line up with the grid.
Code was mostly AI generated and then flashed through esphome on home assistant.
Landscape wires will come through the bottom and have in-line fuses. Right now I have 2 zones working but 4 would be possible. It's up and running in home assistant.
Open to any input/advice
