Waveshare Epaper ESPHOME and Mqtt Notification over secure mqtt

Last Updated or created 2024-02-22

UPDATE: AccessPoint on Arduino implemented with captive portal for Wifi Configuration

Got my Waveshare Epaper Cloud running on ESPHome

This is a Epaper display with a 2000mAh Lipo and a passive buzzer.
Running parts of my Smoker monitor.

Below a little movie clip with RTTTL sound notification.
(Send from Home Assistant)
B.t.w. RTTTL are those ringtones we used to have. (Ring Tone Text Transfer Language)

Sending from HA

MQTT Notifier over Internet

This is part of a test where my friends and me can have notifications LEDs over the internet.

Using certificate parts from:
Controlling the led will be done using Mattermost webhooks, or slashcommand with custom scripting.
(Mattermost is my own hosted chat server)

I flashed a Wemos with below code:
