build ur own climate controller, is it possible?

[kushman45]

Best to wait for the FAQ in a couple of days. I will try to make it simple for those that can atleast solder. That is a prerequisite!! And if you can grow tomatoes, you can solder, no big deal.

What I have to offer is simple, cheap, works, and to say the least is pretty damn good. The only thing that I would like to add is a humidistat, which i am going to research first.

Going to get a vegitable patty... later.

Hello Hydro I am new to this site. I am very interested in building this are you still going to do a how to on this it would be greatly appreciated............................Peace...... ....

kushman45 Reviewed by kushman45 on 04-21-2006. build ur own climate controller, is it possible? I was pricing out climate controllers online and it really seems to be a pretty basic device. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to build their own and if it was doable? I'm no mechanical engineer but I know we have a lot of McGuiver's on this board so i figured i'd ask. All it really needs to do is turn on/off certain plugs (fan, c02, humidifier) based on the temp/humidity. thanks for ur input :pimp: Rating: 5

I have the schematics all done, am working on the instructions. I will post a jpg of the schematics and then finish up the instructions later. I think that I was turning a quick faq into a book! Dohhh....

Need get some coffee going...

Awsome I am dying to build this I am a hardcore do it yourselfer. I like to save money these types of controllers are very expensive in the hydro shops and plus I like to solder and tinker with electronics this will be a killer project..............

Hello Hydro, How's it coming along can you post the schematic I am going nuts I wanna build this thing I already have some 555 chips. Any way I understand you are probably busy with other things.........:stoned:
