Sprinkler Control

This covers my v1 setup. V2 is better… way better. Documentation to come.

This project controls watering through a microcontroller/relay in a waterproof box with a soleniod to regulate water.

I could not find a waterproof box in the configuration I needed so I modified and existing waterproof box.

Assembling the box

Supplies

• 1/2” paddle bit
• Waterproof project box large enough for electronics.
• IP 67 Cable glands
• solenoid
• low voltage outdoor wire
• MCU and relay of your choice. I used an 12v ESP8266 with built in relay.
• silicone caulk

Assembling the box

• Drill holes into box
• Pop one end of cable gland through drilled hole
• Thread wire through glands
• Tighten cable gland
• Use wires to assemble electronics
• Add silicone to all seals
• Close box and tighten

Code for it all

coming :)
