In previous article, I posted about a water impulse counter : I had bought the water counter and designed the Arduino schema.
Today the water counter was settled in my garage.
See below how it looks.
Edit : yes…the counter is settled the wrong way…has been fixed since 🙂
For some years now I have monitoring and logging my energy consumption with an OWL 160.
Datas are then collected in a domotic box (a raspberry + jeedom)
Next step is now to do the same with water.
I have tried several solutions but came to the following conclusions :
-my counter needs to be located inside my house (as operating outside is not practical)
-i need to use a reliable solution like impulse
Therefore I bought the below product based on a reed switch : it will trigger an impulse for each liter.
