Slim Irrigatiesysteem
🌱 Slim Irrigatiesysteem met ESPHome, KC868‑A6 en Dynamische Energieprijzen
Water geven is niet moeilijk — maar het efficiënt, energiezuinig en volledig geautomatiseerd doen, dat is een ander verhaal. In dit project bouwde ik een compleet irrigatiesysteem op basis van:
- ESPHome
- Kincony KC868‑A6
- Home Assistant
- Dynamische energieprijzen via cheapest_energy_hours.jinja (TheFes)
Het resultaat is een systeem dat:
- vijf irrigatiezones aanstuurt
- een pomp schakelt
- lokaal bedienbaar is via hardware‑knoppen
- volledig integreert met Home Assistant
- automatisch draait op de goedkoopste uren van de dag
- en zelfs na een reboot weet wanneer elke zone voor het laatst actief was
- irrigatie duur wordt in de ESP geregeld, zodat een zone niet per ongeluk aan blijft als Home Assistant in de tussentijd herstart
🔧 Hardware: Kincony KC868‑A6
De KC868‑A6 is een veelzijdige controller die ideaal is voor irrigatieprojecten.
| Eigenschap | Beschrijving |
|---|---|
| MCU | ESP32 (WiFi + Bluetooth) |
| Relais | 6 kanalen, 10A, optisch geïsoleerd |
| Ingangen | 6 digitale ingangen (PCF8574) |
| Uitgangen | 8 digitale uitgangen (PCF8574) |
| I²C‑bus | Voor displays, sensoren, uitbreidingen |
| Voeding | 12V input, interne 5V/3.3V conversie |
| Extra’s | RS485, IR, RF, uitbreidingsheaders |

💧 Irrigatiecontroller met ESPHome
De configuratie bevat:
- 5 irrigatiezones
- pompbeveiliging
- OLED‑display
- lokale bediening via knoppen
- persistent “last run” geheugen
- Home Assistant integratie
⚡ Slimme automatisering: irrigeren op de goedkoopste uren
Met dynamische energieprijzen is het zonde om de pomp te laten draaien op dure uren. Daarom gebruik ik de cheapest_energy_hours.jinja template van TheFes.
