ESP32 E220 and remote switch 2

Implementing E220 LoRa Remote Switch to Conserve Wyse Cam3 Battery

The main goal here is to save battery power for a Wyse Cam3 video camera, which uses 180 mA at 5 volts. Since the camera is web-based and only gets a few views a day, we want to stop it from draining power all the time. Right now, a 10,000-mA battery bank only lasts a day, so we need a better way to manage its power. By using a remote switch controlled by an Async Web Server request, we can ensure the camera isn’t wasting battery when it’s not being used.

LoRa remote water level and pump controller (ReWaL): assemble client and 3D printed case – 7

I must fill a tank 1.5 km away, so I create a 2-part controller.
A server with a relay to manage the pump and a client solar/battery-powered to check the tank’s status and notify to the server.

Now we put all the Client components in the relative Case.

LoRa remote water tank level and pump controller (ReWaL): intro – 1

I have to fill a tank 1.5 km away, so I create a 2-part controller.
A server with a relay to manage the pump and a client solar/battery-powered to check the tank’s status and notify the server’s status.
Here is a little introduction to the project with the list of devices and libraries.
