IoT power strip using ESP8266

Description

In this project, I'm using the ESP8266 module to control a power strip over the WiFi connection.
I'm using TRIAC with the MOC opto driver to control up to 12A.

The idea is to control the power strip using my smart phone over the internet.

The software on the module will be the nodeMCU with LUA scripts.

//Inicializacao so servidor http na porta 80
WiFiServer server(80);
//Status da GPIO
uint8_t status_gpio = 0;

void setup() {

  initGPIO();


  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.println("Booting");

  //Inicia o WiFi para modo AP (Access Point)
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_AP);

  /* Configura o AP

  */
  //Configura o AP
  WiFi.softAP("IoTStrip","control42",2,0);

  //Logs na porta serial
  Serial.print("AP IP: ");
  Serial.println(WiFi.softAPIP());

  server.begin();

}

void webserver_handle(void){

  //Aguarda uma nova conexao
  WiFiClient client = server.available();
  if (!client) {
    return;
  }

  Serial.println("Nova conexao requisitada...");

  while(!client.available()){
    delay(1);
  }

  Serial.println("Nova conexao OK...");

  //Le a string enviada pelo cliente
  String req = client.readStringUntil('\r');
  //Mostra a string enviada

TRIAC Module

Pedro Minatel • 05/04/2015 at 21:52 • 1 comment

This is the TRIAC module with RC snubber for inductive load.

Should I keep the filter?

Testing the module

Pedro Minatel • 04/28/2015 at 23:01 • 0 comments

Right now I'm testing the nodeMCU TCP client script! The idea is to develop a basic Android app to control the power strip.

Olá Pedro,
Poderia me ajudar? Estou tentando incrementar o seu projeto, gostaria de adicionar ao projeto um push-bottom para que além de ligar a régua pela internet pudesse liga-la pelo botão físico acoplado a régua.

Are you sure? yes | no

Good to hear!

It is a really bad idea to use a white board for 110 volt power. Use a blue box like in

Probably even worse for 230 volts :(

Are you sure? yes | no

Hello Bruce, I know that is too risky! I was just testing the MOC plus the TRIAC. BTW the current was about 180mA and just for a few seconds.

The second prototype is a little bit more secure.

Are you sure? yes | no
