Would be nice if there are any pictures or part names for the used boards as the aliexpress links are somewhat dead

maybe you can add a folder with pictures of every part used?

The sensor itself is not water tight soo maybe there is an alternative to monitor the height?

Hi, the links work properly, but if you still have issues with them, here are the names of all the components I used in this mini project:

ESP32 Development Board: I used the ESP32-WROOM-32U, but you can use any other type of ESP32 similar to this one.

LCD Screen: I used the 1.3" OLED module, white/blue color, 128X64 screen, as the one shown down in the readme section.

WiFi Modem: You can use any modem (phone/home one) as long as it has good WiFi coverage.

Ultrasonic Sensor: I used the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Wave Detector Ranging Module (it has a waterproof version, but it's more expensive than the normal one I used, and it comes with straight and bent pins depending on which angle you're going to use it).

5V Power Supply: You can use any power supply you want from 3.3v to 5v, but I recommend you to use the 5v one since the relay needs 5v to work, and the ESP32 board has a power regulator anyway, so it won't matter if it's higher than 3.3v aka 5v.

5V Relay: I used a one Channel Relay Module Board Shield with optocoupler that Supports High and Low-Level Trigger.

Jumper Wires: These are regular small or long cables you can find anywhere.

PS: if you need further help feel free to ask me anytime
