You are evil!  >:D

Two strings then. One white, when she's in a burn and another with multiple lights for the season on a timer. I don't think I'll even tell the wife about this one, I'll just surprise her.

BTW- We decorate the first Saturday after Thanksgiving.

Here is something I have been playing with. It requires a computer to me running but can use I think up to 64 sensors. I only attached two to it right now.

I like that one better than the other you you displayed. What two temps are those? It says boiler but I can't imagine your running yours at that low of  temp.

This is at the office on the gas boiler. I have a loop that runs continuous and then when the thermostat calls for heat the boiler pumps hot water into it. I just shoved the probes under the pipe insulation so they are probably ready low too. I will turn up the thermostat for a little while so you can see it move. I think I have the boiler running at 140° right now.

This one it uploading what you see every 15 seconds to a web server.

The other one has a web server built into it and you connect directly to it. It doesn't need a computer running either or web hosting.

Thats Cool! I watched it go through a heat cycle. Refreshing my browser every 1-2 minutes. I see there was some data logging between 1-3PM. I assume you adjusted the clock to reflect actual local time?

I am not sure what that it. I was using it yesterday some and it might have mixed them or something.

So is this the same thing you offered before but different graphics? And now you can put up to 64 temp probes? Looks like you have a marketable item! We will have to compare notes when I get mine installed.

No, what I had before was a network device that connects directly to the internet.
This is a USB adapter that plugs into a computer and I have it uploading to my FTP server every 15 seconds. 15 seconds in the shortest it can set to. It can be set to as high as once per day (which would be kind of worthless)

I still like the other one better because it doesn't need a computer. The one probe tells me everything I need to know from my phone.

I'm still watching your graph. What happened at 1PM. All the previous data disappeared.

EDIT: Never mind. I see you moved the sensors.

The two of you are way to hi-tech for me, but it is fun to follow along.

I just added another sensor and stuck it out the window.
I am not sure how long I will be able to keep this running. I have a cable strung through another guy's office and don't think he will like it when he sees it. He probably won't be in for a couple days though.

I'm impressed with the hardware you were using today. Seems pretty easy to set-up sensors. You going to give a hint what your using?

The sensors are the same as what the you will be getting with the monitor you ordered. They are connected to a USB interface.

That made me laugh. I just dug all the pieces out of the pile of junk on my desk.
