Good evening everyone,
has anyone ever looked into integrating the Mars Hydro devices? I saw that the AC Infinity Controller was integrated.
Greetings spalter
Hello everyone,
I’m also very interested in integrating Mars Hydro devices into Home Assistant. If there’s any progress or development on this topic, I would appreciate updates. Additionally, if there’s any way I can assist or contribute to making this integration possible, please let me know.
Thank you!

Has anyone seen any progress made for bluetooth MH dimmer integration? I, too, am looking to integrate a few rooms up to my controller instead of just killing power to the socket.

Not necessarily for Mars Hydro, but I depending on your driver, you can use an ESP32 with a 0-10v converter. More info here
I have all the kit built, but no light available to test it on yet, it’s busy 
There are other methods, using mosfets/octocouplers etc. but this seemed the simplest.

Any progress? Interested in integrating mars hydro smart led (as FC- Evo series)
The Mars Hydro app offers an option to share the system with others. I guess there is no option to connect to the API by sniffing the traffic because of encryption?

I hope I’m in the right place.
I have the MarsHydro FC-E1500 with the Bluetooth stick. Since I would also like to use the lamp in HA (Home Assistant), I opened the stick and saw that it only contains an ESP32 WROOM-32E connected to a USB, with the pins for reflashing clearly labeled. Since I have no idea about this kind of thing, I would like to post the pictures I took, and maybe someone has an idea on how to integrate or reflash it.es I took, and maybe someone has an idea on how to integrate or reflash it.
Hi guys,
I have 2 FC6500 EVOs. Its gen.1 smart grow light from Mars Hydro. Dimmer box in light already contains ESP32 chip.
I took some pictures but can’t find them right now. Have to check them later using my PC. Writing this with my phone.
Mars Hydro app SUCKS. Just look at the comments.
I wondered since it has ESP32 in it, maybe you could flash it to Esphome? I can’t tinker with it because my grow is still due for few weeks.
App shows some kind of ID but I don’t understand much about cloud platforms.
I tried putting it in pairing mode and add it to ewlink and smartlife apps without progress.
Can anyone help how to proceed?
I took interest also in this. Mars hydro uses ESP32 wroom in integrated smart dimmer box.
If you want to control light intensity, easiest route is using lights 12v as VIN and then PWM to 0-10v module.
