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.
Expect posts on:
- Victron Energy: batteries, MPPT chargers, Cerbo GX, and getting data out of them.
- Node-RED: automations that react to the van’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. The site is built with Hugo and the PaperMod theme, and the source lives on GitHub.
