Smart home that actually works — day to day
I'm Mike. I build ESP32 firmware, sensor networks and Home Assistant integrations — this is what's running in my own home. If your project is stuck, or you want something like this built, I also do that on commission.
Smart Cat Fountain
ESP32-S3 camera streams the sink to Frigate: when the Coral TPU detects a cat, Home Assistant opens the faucet valve — with run-on timer and safety cutoff.
GaFuBi LoRa Mesh
Professional LoRa mesh network with gateway and multiple sensor nodes for garden, feed and bee monitoring.
GaFuBi Wood-Fired Oven
Self-made electronics for directly heated wood-fired ovens, divided into two units since September 2026: a base unit in a closed case at the oven that measures dome and floor temperatures with two K-type thermocouples, performs the calculations, and logs the data. A LED matrix display within sight shows both temperatures in large digits and indicates the status with a colour. In addition, there is a web UI that displays a live chart, 10 baking programs with a learning timer, and integration with Home Assistant.
Energy Dashboard
Real-time energy flow dashboard for solar system, battery storage and household consumption with billing.
BMS Web Dashboard
Web dashboard for monitoring multiple JK-BMS battery systems with Telegram alerts and long-term data logging.
Tank Level System
Wireless tank level system with round touch display and LoRa-connected sensor node.
BBQ Temp Monitor
ESP32 gateway with Flutter companion app: monitor Bluetooth BBQ thermometers, temperature alarm on your phone — even in the background.
ESP32 Smoker Controller
ESP32-S3-based smoker controller with PID regulation, multiple DS18B20/PT1000 sensors, adaptive power limiting, servo damper control and energy monitoring via PZEM-004T.
