Can't imagine the mini boss would give you much stroke.
It's not the length, it's not the size, it's how many times you can make it rise [emoji6]Quote:

Arduino:
Currently running our sprinkler system and energy monitoring system
What sort of Sprinkler systemQuote:

The purpose of this setup is to control the system via web which can be accessed through your smartphone.

Mate you would fit in well over here in Millparkistan. Do you wear you cap backwards, have the doof doof up loud and recline the drivers seat so far your looking out the rear window? If so you'd be a local here. And the go snails pace, on an angle over speed humps here too. Drives me nuts i just wanna run them over.Quote:

So in theory I could use this type of setup for activate sprinklers 2 help defend my house should there be a bush fire while I'm not at home?Quote:

Done that before when a bush fire was travel past quickly about 1.5k's away! Didn't want it 2 burn my beer!!!!!!Quote:

Certainly you can, but you have to remember with any system there's a risk involved (including the system not working when required) and it will be high on homemade systems.Quote:

You may need a Raspberry Pi, as mine is connected to HP Microserver, Internet and powersupply.
Do not rely on anything electrical to help fight a fire as power is the first thing to go out
Oh yeah ofcourse that's exactly what I do, that's the only thing a street car owner does. But when I'm in my patrol I fit in better over here where there isn't as many townie 4wd owners that spend more time buying parts and talking about their cars than driving them. Drives me nuts and I just want to throw mud at them.Quote:

Thanks, I'm already aware of that and was more looking at a defense if I was not home and could activate if before power or mobile reception was lost.Quote:

In general micro-controllers are very reliable compare to computer systems (Micro processors), but again mine is only a home made system which with limited testing (as only me) I am not sure what other things can possibly go wrong.
So I must reiterate again that you MUST consider the risks involved and mindful of on depending on such systems as a reliable defense mechanism.
I also had a look at setting up something similar. Good idea to use Mineral Insulated Metal Sheathed (MIMS) conductors and gal piping above ground if you wish to keep your fire suppression system operating. It would only benefit you if you had your own power source too as power is usually cut in the event of a fire. You could use the controller to isolate your system from your mains power and start and connect your own power source.Quote:

respect to you for doing it and well going by the trophys
I want one, reminds me of the old fiberglass VW beach buggy'sQuote:
