And both of you manage it in English which I can only assume is not your mother tongue. I am fluent in German but could probably not make a comprehensible video in that language.

      1. esp with wired 3x LD2410 and powered by 5v usb charger - important part: cable extensions for sensors so you can wrap one room around with it.
      2. refurbish old android phones to run without battery as room control board, with proximity sensor to turn it on or off

    Actually its normally easier to use the same ground of the pcb you are trying to control buttons from in your ESP and pull one of the buttons output to ground in order to generate a click, this is how this kind of buttons work and you can totally skip the relays doing this. This way also gives you the option of doing multiple clicks at very high speeds (as fast as the pcb microcontroller allows you) without any moving parts

    • @PricelessToolkit

      For the person who has knowledge of electronics, yes it is easier, but for many its easier to connect 2 wires without knowing which side is ground

    I also use esp8266 as some sort of simulated switch press to some of my device, though the only thing I need is just a esp8266, some wires and a DIL reed relay (just buy 1 or more of it, depends how many buttons you want to control) after that its just programming with esphome and treat it as a standard relay switches. Now I have a smart eneabled device without the clicking noise.

      With Espclicker you can't. but.. if the knob is electrical "Variable Resistor" there are many, so to speak "digital resistors" which can be controlled with ESP. If it's mechanical ten you can use servomotor and ESP.
