    New Pi Zero $5 stripped down RasPi

    I only picked one up at Microcenter yesterday, they were 5 bucks if you bought one but if you bought more than one they were 9.99 each. I just checked the stock and they are already sold out. I'll keep an eye out for you though.

    3D Printed Barrel Servo/Fan

    Well over night last night I got to do my first test (too busy last weekend to get a chance to mess with it) Anyway here is the graph, started with the default PID settings then settled on P=2.5 I=.0035 D=6. But I didn't change that until after it was up and running. Learned that startup max...

    HeaterMeter v4.0 for RaspberyPi / Standalone

    I followed the guide, I first removed the wireless interface I first added and followed the guide step by step. I still don't get an IP address showing up on the Interfaces page: Is that something with my router? I just use the router that AT&T gave me.

    HeaterMeter v4.0 for RaspberyPi / Standalone

    Yes I left the LAN interface on 192.168.200.1 but I had it connected to my laptop and my laptop disconnected from my wifi while configuring it. I didn't see many steps on getting the wifi set up on the wiki, has it all been brought up here before? If so I can search the thread again.

    HeaterMeter v4.0 for RaspberyPi / Standalone

    Apparently I forced it to fit the wrong way. Flipped it around and all is well, now I just need to figure out how to talk to it wirelessly. I got it connected to my wifi network but when I go to the address that my router assigned I get a connection error.

    HeaterMeter v4.0 for RaspberyPi / Standalone

    I wanted to share that I got my Heatermeter up and running last night :) The only problem so far is the 4 way button doesn't work, only the down button seems to work and that's only after wiggling the button from left to right while pushing it down. Any suggestions on where to look?

    HeaterMeter v4.0 for RaspberyPi / Standalone

    Quick question about blower motors, you said earlier in the thread that "Any 12VDC fan can be used as long as the current draw isn't too high." My question is what is the maximum current draw the blower can have? I have the one in the parts list but need more CFM for my big offset smoker. I...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    I figured out what locked up the router, whenever I go to the wifi tab and try to enable the wireless the little cricle just spins and spins while it waits on the router to reconfigure. I let it sit for 15 minutes last night before rebooting it because I couldnt do anything else. After the...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    Just wanted to check back in, I was able to reset the configuration of the router(finally got putty to work so I can ssh in) and now the pages work again. Also figured out how to burn the bootloader using the burn from any atmega method. I did notice with doing that I had to uplug the ardiuno...
