CapiBridge LoRa and ESP-NOW Gateway for Home Assistant
🎁Two lucky subscribers will get CapiBridge for free!🎁
CapiBridge is an open-source gateway for low-power devices. It supports various communication technologies including LoRa, ESP-NOW, and WiFi. The gateway receives JSON strings from LoRa and ESP-NOW devices and publishes them to an MQTT server. It automatically separates the JSON string into dynamic MQTT topics based on keys within the JSON, such as "b" for battery or "m" for motion, making it highly compatible with Home Assistant. This gateway simplifies adding new DIY nodes/sensors to your smart home by standardizing the communication protocol across all projects, focusing on simplicity and unified protocol handling.

I want to add door sensors to my basement
I'm planning to use it to measure soil wetness.
Composting process, temp, hum
To understand when the process is finished?
82 / 5.000 Hello, I am interested in obtaining a sample to develop a project for a building.
Great Idea very useful
Thank you!!
Great project! Does this completely replace the original intercom or can both be used together?
Thanks, Both!
Is there a way to power this through the existing wiring of the intercom? I have a model similar to this one www.intercomsrus.com/handset_documentation/STR%20HT2003-2W%20Intercom%20Handset%20Data%20Sheet.pdf
Hi, I'm interested to buy ur nice built gateway and other devices, BUT 2 questions. 1. I want to control power sockets and lamps in my far office (500 m away) with LoRa, through Home Assistant scheduling interface. how can I do that? does CapiBridge Gateway could make this possible? but do I need to DIY the LoRa switches to be used in the office or you have product that fits this requirement? 2. My idea is want to use ready made WiFi smart power outlets/lamps in the market. How can I bridge my home to my 500 m away office? do you have such solution? such as CapiBridge connect both location and convert to WiFi network in the far office so we can add the ready made WiFi smart power outlets/lamps, and Home Assistant able to detect/manage the devices...
Your office have Internet access?
For now, capibridge is a one-way communication "for sending data through Lora" firmware needs a little bit of modification.
Very cool. A gateway is a must have with so many sensors available now.
Thank you!!
Can u add nutone intercom to your "intercom type" list? Thanks
I don't have an intercom-type list, which list are you talking about?
I am in the process of building a new house and this could be useful in so many ways. Right off the top of my head, I would like to try and develop a remote monitor for the septic system.
Best of luck!
It's a good idea
Thank you!!
I'd use this as an alternative garage door opener since the radio in my existing one is barely working.
capibridge frimware is only one way comunication for now .
Can this gateway also be used to control devices over long distances?
With firmware modification yes, but for now, only one-way communication RX.
I'm currently planning a water irrigation system for my parent's greenhouse. This gateway would be really helpful to communicate with different sensors and relays for this project. For the idea of shields, I would also add IR Blaster next to the RF433 shield to replace remotes in the house and control A/C for example through HA. Last but not least I want to thank you for the amazing quality content, building the project itself then shooting everything (with all the different angle shots, etc..) I can't image how much work is behind every video.. at the same time, I can't wait for the next project 😅
Thank you very much! As for the IR, I'm not entirely sure because it needs to be installed in a specific location. However, I have an idea: to create a shield for "WiFi Probe Requests" so you can detect when specific people are approaching the house, with capturing MAC addresses.
Why am i getting this recommended only just now?
Maybe not subscribed :))
Plan to integrate it into my presence sensors that I made using esp-32’s
yes, why not
With PoE and the ability to also use it as a Bluetooth-Proxy, this would be a huge game changer. Would love to get my hands on this, but also looking forward to version 2.0!
everyone has WIFI and maybe 5 percent of them has PoE switch. v2 will be with minor changes, but in the list, i have other Gateway project "for remote locations"
@@PricelessToolkit yeah I need it, Gateway project "for remote locations"...!! looking forward to just buy from you. your open-source resources are for future tweak, happy to support u
Thank you!!
i so excited i want to make this type of gateway but failed to get that much of power effeciency its too amazing .
Gateway is not power efficient, and sensors are
DIY sensor game!!
it's a best game
Looks like a perfect match for my water leak detection system in the crawl space
why not!
I plan to make a smart house project to make it more efficient and secure.
nice!
good work
Thanks
is 923-4 also available ?
no only 1234

Am excited about LoRa and ESP-NOW Gateway for Home Assistant!
nice
Such a great idea and design :) Looking forward to using this to see dam water levels. Would love 433 support! Use a LOT of that!
Awesome! Thank you!
Awesome idea.. it means i’ll be able to connect to my further sensors without relying on the wifi expanders I’ve put up for the connection (witch fails intermittently) and was making me give up… i guess that’s the way to go… 👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
This project is very cool It would be awesome if the main ESP would be able to run ESPHome rather then depend on MQTT etc
Thank you, ESPhome don't support LoRa
@@PricelessToolkit yea they also don't directly support esp-now but I've seen people create libraries for it
Love the dual ESP design, need to have sheild for GPS/GNSS or 4G
thanks, maybe 3G or EDGE is cheaper.
a great combination of both tools. i am looking to use it for some projects
Thanks
To participate in the giveaway, just like, subscribe, and let us know in the comments which DIY sensor project you’re excited to use it for
hmmm :)
Where are you located? I was chatting with a rep from jlcpcb and he said that they can’t ship loose components due to customs regulations. I’m in Europe. He said I needed to either have them assemble the entire board or I would need to source the components elsewhere. Very odd.
I'm in France, what does it mean "the loose components"?
@@PricelessToolkit I mean the parts that I'm not having them assemble. I have a PCB with various components on it. I'm a new customer so they have a "free SMT assembly on one side" promotion. I'm having them assemble one side and wanted them to send me the remaining components in my BOM that I'm going to solder myself. He said they can't do that due to customs regulations. They can only sell components that are assembled on a board. Is that not true? I was looking around on the website during my order process after I uploaded the gerber file and BOM and stuff and even though my BOM has all the parts required for the PCB it only showed me the parts that they were going to assemble.
So much knowledge!
A little!!
Informative video
Thanks
new home assistent for friend
nice!
Thank you for the video. I wish I can get the board as I want to do a system for a drones control around the house and lora would help to communicate with them and esp would give control over drones parameters.
Thanks for watching, check the "ELRS" it is more suited for that control link + config.
Wow, nice project. I would use this for my aquaponics automation project to simplify my sensor connections through Wifi and Lora. My current stack is HA, MQTT, Node-red, InfluxDB, Grafana
Thank you!! Sounds great!
