Design forum for new Pool Controller Hat

[Katodude]

I am sure most of you that are interested already got the email from Sequent Microsystems. But they have set up a forum to gather data on building a Pool Controller Hat.

Pool Automation Controller

If you are interested in a Raspberry Pi-based Pool Automation System, please share your thoughts here. We will try to draw conclusions about the best set of specifications, and hope to bring it to life soon. In short, please help us define the board level inputs, outputs and communication...

I dont know if you got the email from Sequent, but they opened a forum soliciting advice for a new Pool Controller hat. I answered most of Mihai’s questions but from my point of view. You guys probably have something to add that I have forgotten.

It looks like he also wants to make his own version of the whiteboxlabs hat.

It is interesting that he wants to use Mosfets instead of relays to control valve actuators.
