Hello all! As mentioned in a separate thread, I'm working with a few folks to build a base automation controller. The results of this project will be a reusable open source platform that will form the foundation of more feature rich applications. The core controller has basic features and...

Has anyone discussed latching? I remember playing around with a latching configuration composed of standard momentary relays... similar to this. Also, I track state in non-volatile memory (EEPROM or SPIFFS) and return to this on power loss if the power loss was momentary. If I had momentarily...
