Let’s create a simple Gas Detector connectable to WiFi. The gadget would offer: web UI including gauges for LPG, CO, Smoke simple data handler returning values in JSON capable of regularly sending data to ThingSpeak server and obviously triggering laud alarm if threshold of dangerous concentrations exceeded. We would need following components: NodeMCU with ESP8266 …
If, like me, you have a pellet stove which does not indicate the low level of the tank, I suggest this little module which will beep when the reserve is almost empty. This gap is problematic because when there are no more pellets, the stove switches off and the ventilation still blows for 40 minutes. …
ArduSniffer This Instructable shows how to build a gas detector / indicator using an arduino. The finished product is USB powered and displays the amount of detected gas on a led display. In this design the reset button on the arduino is also working. This project will cost you between €25,- and €65,- depending on …
