After reading the cool posts about dryer automation i thought this week i would take a stab at it. I could not find on eBay the sensors mentioned in the original tutorial/write-up, so I settled on a different sensor. Once received I immediately started testing the sensor. Much to my dismay all this sensor does is output a little voltage if power is running through the monitored cord. We are talking fractions of milliamps in a/c. So did I fail or is there a way to use this sensor with an elk zone? If no go can someone suggest any other sensor?
