Humidifier / Heater Support #59

Open SeaSlash opened 5 years ago

SeaSlash commented 5 years ago

Not an issue. I guess you can say this is an enhancement request and/or question about the software's current capabilities.

So I'm currently setting up my first grow tent and I'd like to incorporate a humidifier if humidity drops below X.

I'd also like to have a heater kick on should the temp drop below X and off when it reaches X.

Just wondering if there is a current way to achieve this with Fruxe.

Thanks for your help!

I second this request, and if we could add different temperature and humidity thresholds for lights on and lights off that would be incredible.

+1 for heating-relay pin activated when temp is below certain value +1 for cooling-relay pin activated when temp is above certain value

To be effective it would need some kinda PID solution to avoid osciallation And may need to access multiple temperature sensors for vertical grow spaces where heat gradient may be large
