New owner of Opi Lite!

[pastito]

Hi I am new in the forum and the happy owner (as of yesterday) of an Orange Pi Lite.

 

Nice little board. I managed to install Armbian server, configure Wi-Fi upgrade and install apache / php and mrtg.

 

I also was able to enable one wire protocol to play around with a DS18B20 thermometer.

My idea is to create an automated garden watering system with nice stats (graphs)

I already have a 4 channel relay board (to connect solenoid water valves), a DS18B20 to sense temperature, an LDR to graph sunlight hours

and 4 hygrometers --moisture sensors--. Those I want to connect through an I2C ADS1115 ADC module (which I also already have).

 

I have never done a project like this one so I will be searching the forums a lot and probably be asking silly questions.

I also noticed that the H3 processor gets really hot even whithout heavy load, so I installed a small heat sink.

 

Thank you for reading!

 

Regards
