r/esp8266

This may be stupid but I have to ask anyway!

Is there anyway to get or download the current weather temperature from the web to use either in an Arduino sketch or ESP-32 application. Thanks for the help.

I did clock designs for my GeekMagic Ultra, each having their own style and gimmick

The time and date data comes from Home Assistant integration, which gets pushed into the smalltv ultra

ESP32 flame sensor false triggering — need help

ESP32 flame sensor false triggering — need help

I’m using an ESP32 with a flame sensor and buzzer. The problem is that the buzzer turns ON even when there is no flame.

I tried:

\- Adjusting the sensor potentiometer

\- Changing the code

\- Changing the sensor position

But it still triggers without a flame. The ESP32 and buzzer are working properly.

Could this be a wiring issue, inverted HIGH/LOW output, faulty sensor, or something else? How can I test whether the flame sensor itself is working correctly?

I’m a beginner, so any simple troubleshooting steps would be really helpful.
