- Mon Jul 16, 2018 8:16 am #77081 I've put an instructable up describing a esp-12 based plant waterer
https://www.instructables.com/id/Batter ... -Watering/

This uses deep sleep to give extended battery life.

It includes a library wkEvents to help organise a weekly schedule of activities

Code is at https://github.com/roberttidey/Autowater

It could be worth using one of the ESP32 boards that have a capacitive sensor and lipo battery holder all built in.
This would make it much more of an integrated solution.
