I’m guessing you haven’t received anything yet. Capital One support sucks, to put it mildly. I’ll just throw 11 bucks in an envelope and mail it out…
Bank says you cashed the check on Feb 23, can you confirm that? Also I have a new board and igniter on the way, so hopefully I’ll be flashing the chip soon!
I know this is an older thread, but is anyone willing to flash and send me a chip?
Happy to pay via zelle, PayPal, venmo or any other payment of your choosing. I considered myself relatively competent with this stuff, but its getting cold and Id rather avoid mistakes!
I sent you a PM
Take a look at my GitHub - it really is complete and show how to do everything from the basic flash of the tywe1s chip all the way up to the Ultimate Mods.
Hi Jeff!
Been trying to find a way to send a new message,finally gave and resorted to replying to this old message…anyway, I’ve been trying to update the firmware for the pellet stove and it keeps failing. Not sure where else to address this issue…not a big deal because the pellet stove is working fine, but as a rule I try to keep software and firmware up to date. The error is “Failed to perform the action update/install. Error compiling basic-pellet-stove.yaml; Try again in ESPHome dashboard for more information.” I see errors when trying it in the esphome dashboard, but like a dog watching tv, it’s interesting but I have no idea how to fix it. If I should address this elsewhere, let me know, ok?
Thanks!
Cliff
no problem! copy and paste the full output of the ESPHome compiler. that might help narrow it down. I suspect its the chip type you selected…
Also, copy and paste your esphome config file here. I help you figure it out.
Jeff
you need to add ``` before and after all code sections or it’s not readable…

Remove these lines and try again. They are no longer needed.

Then it should compile fine!

ok, i removed those lines and ran the update again (in home assistant). it seems to have completed (or at least no errors) but the version number stays the same. so i ran “update all” in esphome and it seems to have worked, thanks! you rock!

Awesome. That’s great! I’m happy to help.
I know it been couple years but I just bought Cleveland iron works and interested if you have any controllers that are programmed
No, this is a very do it yourself project, although I will have circuit boards delivered next week and I’ll have extras.
HI Jeff!
So I just tried the latest upgrade (Basic-Pellet-Stove Firmware 2025.2.0) for the pellet stove, and after making the required changes in the config, it compiled ok but I got a connection refused error. It is the correct ip address, at least it’s the one I set up when I did a dhcp reservation when I first installed the stove. I tried the upgrade again when the stove was not running, same error. Any hints as to what I might be doing wrong? Thanks again!

that might be a password or encryption problem. You may need to flash it connected to your computer. Also, when posting code or logs, use 3 back tics to start and end

then its readable like this instead of a mess.

Ok, thanks. I’ll just stay on this version then.
