Wifi Fireplace Using a Wemos D1 Mini/ESP8266
After installing my Garage Door Controller, I wanted my next project to be something cooler. Of course, there’s nothing cooler than a smart gas fireplace.
Here is a list of things you will need to get started:
- A gas fireplace. Read below to make sure your fireplace will work with this.
- Wemos D1 Mini | AliExpress
- MicroUSB Cable and Charger for Wemos
- 5V Relay | AliExpress
- Dupont jumpers | AliExpress
- Electronic Project Case (Optional)
Software that you will need:
- Home Assistant configured with an MQTT broker such as Mosquitto
- Arduino IDE | How to setup Arduino IDE with a Wemos D1 Mini
I created a gallery of all the images for this project in case anyone needs a closer look at any of the wiring.
