Can further E-Connect modules be added (e.g. E-Gaslevel)? #1

Hi Fabian,

great work, the function of the e-waterlevel is very fine.

I have other E-Connect modules (e.g. e-gaslevel, e-pressure, e-switch, e-load, ...). Can these modules also be integrated and if so, how can this work? Can the e-connect basis for e-volt also be integrated? I looked at your source code, but couldn't figure it out. Is there a description of the RAW data somewhere?

Thanks and keep it up Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Each module requires custom code. I know the e-gaslevel is just an Mopeka gas standard gas sensor already supported by ESP Home.

I am certain other modules could also be reverse engineered, but usually there exists already cheaper / better alternatives than the modules provided by e-connect. Therefore I was only interested in the e-waterlevel and brough only this without a e-connect basis.

I reverse engineered the raw data myself the description is in the header: https://github.com/Fabian-Schmidt/esphome-ewaterlevel/blob/6db08d75314ab329cdabb7eb2d8b1468ac1000b7/components/ewaterlevel_ble/ewaterlevel.h#LL13C1-L65C1

Cheers, Fabian
