I bought a cheap rain gauge with RainPoint branding and, because the rest of RainPoint’s irrigation equipment is set up with Tuya devices, I imagined that this would be similar and I’d be able to get it through a TuyaLocal integration. However, neither its hub nor the rain gauge is picked up by Tuya app. The hub and rain gauge don’t even appear in the Tuya app and looking at the generic devices doesn’t help.
Any experience with this equipment? I’m assuming its a lost cause. Googling the model number and PCB text yields nothing…
Not yet, but a few brands of irrigation controller / sensors use HomGar now and there’s a few posts on it so I’m hoping that someone with the skills creates an integration soon.
I really hope someone creates a solution for this system too. I bought one of the Diivoo multi-port valves on Amazon and miss the ability to use Siri to activate it like I could with my Eve Aqua.
I ended up ripping out the internal logic boardnand replaing it with an ESP board with magnetic pulse sensor.
Thankfully, the rainguage is on my roof and so i can power it with a USB connection power supply that ive repurposed from a raspberry pi adaptor (and extended the cable by splicing some speaker flex cable).
