Description: Hey Guys! In this video I'll be showing you how to make the cheapest DIY automated smart blinds. These blinds use a NodeMCU CH340 (~$5) chip, a MG995 servo (~$5), and a few spare parts I had laying around (less than $5). It's super easy and can save a mint if you're looking at automating your blinds. ---Arduino Board Manager Link--- arduino.esp8266.com/versions/2.2.0/package_esp8266com_index.json ---MQTT WIFI Blinds Arduino Sketch--- bruhautomation.com/single-post/2016/07/25/The-Cheapest-DIY-WIFI-Automated-Blinds ---Parts--- NODEMCU CH340 - amzn.to/1TYlNTY MG995 Servo - amzn.to/1TYlwAv Misc small tube 5-6 feet of nylon rope aluminum brace or material for c clamp 1x2 or scrap wood for servo frame --- The Tech I Use --- geni.us/bruhkit --- Other Favorite Parts --- Raspberry Pi 3 - geni.us/raspberrypi3 Case - geni.us/2rQEgy5 SD Card - geni.us/PbZS2oD Power Supply - geni.us/2ABPd1D LIFX - geni.us/r0dC Aeotec Z-Stick Gen 5 - geni.us/N2ULv NodeMCU ESP8266 Chip - geni.us/6i9vl If you like this video, sub and hit thumbs up. Let me know in the comments what you want to see next! As a note, any NodeMCU CH340 chip should do the job. They come in different colors and are made by different manufacturers, but functionally they should all be the same.
