Hello Bernhard. Is there support for this device?

The old device type can no longer be found. Bought this device.

Hey,

yes, there is, see this Repository: https://github.com/BernhardSchlegel/Brick-32 and a YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TI9fxsTRmM

However, the display is not supported yet - Pull Requests are welcome!

Cheers,
Bernhard.

Thank you, Bernhard... And after flashing, can I update the software over the air?

Unfortunately no, because the chip flash is less than 2x the firmware.

And, now I understand why you are introducing wires from the case!
Any plans to use dry contacts?
For example, connecting a circulation pump via a relay or a distillation valve?

As far as your image says, the dry-contact is always in sync with the relay. If this is a software limitation by Sonoff, feel free to submit a PR to change that - I've open sourced the firmware for a reason (=to allow collaboration and people to contribute).

Current solution, if you want to control a circulation pump indepdentently would be to get a second Sonoff and map its relay to the circulation by drag and dropping in our software. This is the usecase described here: https://docs.bierbot.com/using-bricks/e ... types/biab

Cheers,
Bernhard.

Bernhard, you are too kind to people! :)

Unfortunately I'm not a programmer. In any case, you are doing a good job, thank you very much.

Greetings, Bernhard! Hasn't there been any offline use of your brainchild yet? For example, through iOS or Android applications?

Hey,

there was an Android app (which was also communicating with my backend), but taking care of multiple release streams (web and apps) takes curently too much time.

Sorry,
Bernhard.
