Thanks @newAM for publishing your work. I wouldn't be able to do this project otherwise. Especially the 3D printed case.


In case someone build it's own version with a ESP8266 you might be interested in my fork. It connects via WiFi (obv) and support Over The Air updates.

It also saves the 'tare'/offset to the EEPROM and doesn't reset on restart/power off. And it only sends MQTT updates if the load has changed. (reduce the load on MQTT broker)

Thanks for the kind words! I added your project in the md of mine so people can find it. I also incorporated the broker load reduction, great idea!
