[{"content":"Welcome. This blog is about making a Niesmann+Bischoff iSmove 6.9E motorhome smarter: adding components, designing new electronics, and wiring everything into one coherent system.\nExpect posts on:\nVictron Energy: batteries, MPPT chargers, Cerbo GX, and getting data out of them. Node-RED: automations that react to the van\u0026rsquo;s state. HomeKit: exposing lights, tanks, temperatures, and power to Apple Home. Electronics: custom boards and firmware where off-the-shelf parts fall short. Multi-part projects will be grouped into series so you can read them in order.
