LCD Temperature Controller

Goal

To build a temperature controller for my cheap chinese 40w CO2 laser cutter

Parts required :-

  • 5v Arduino Nano ATMega328p (china clone)
  • 5v DS18B20 for water temperature sensor
  • 5v HD48870 20x4 character LCD display
  • 5v Buttons for menu
  • 12v fans induvidually via PWM (maybe upto 3)
  • 12v peltiers (PWM) (all in one, i have 4 working ATM, pictures soon) (aliex link here)
  • 12v water pump (PWM) (aliex link here)

Reality

TBA

Realisation

I guessing I'm not the first to do all this, but it's my journey.
This stuff takes time.
Trying to figure out line breaks for github README.MD files.
