The perfect PyCom product
-
While we all wait for the upcoming FiPy Kickstarter, I suggest collecting ideas on where to go from here. Obviously PyCom knows it's wireless stuff, but IoT is more, and PyCom knows it, as proven by the announced PySense and PyTrack.
Maybe we as a community could pool our creativity, dreams, and vision, and help PyCom so that PyCom may help us. :-)
Edit: This is not about the FiPy, although FiPy is great.

where can i find info about FiPy?
i got email about but the link was broken -
I would like to see an FRAM component on future PyCom product. FRAM doesn't degrade like Flash and is useful for keeping state during deep sleep (cpu off) power saving modes.
-
I would also like to see something like PySense, but built to interface with 250V mains to remotely control consumer electronics and monitor their power consumption. PyHome?

I add my vote for relay module. I would appreciate something able to switch high current like 230V/16A. Most relay modules are limitied to 10A which is not enough for oil heaters and similar devices. -
You can really simple change switch to 20A
a few seconds soldering -

Great idea!

We are currently finalising some kits with controleverything.com, including a high-amp relay controller such as this one:

They'll very soon be offering a range of their monitoring kits for LoPy, SiPy, WiPy 2.0 and WiPy 1.0.

@joe2612 That's very interesting! Thank you for the information. Are your kits mainly targeting tinkering geeks, or also small scale "industrial" applications - think remotely controlled lighting by retrofitting 50 standalone lamps in an office. If yes, do you have cases and bulk pricing?
-
@betabrain Mainly 'tinkering' however they do have the capacity to produce larger scale applications. Feel free to drop me an email and I'll see how I can help.
