I don't know how many of you remember, but I have the fanciest camper vent for my greenhouse. Like 300+ bucks (WTAF, who spends that money?), and honestly worth every penny. I did a deep search over a year ago on researching how to have a hardwired controller for it and found promising pictures of the official controller board PCB. I spent the afternoon checking with a voltmeter and can confirm I know the mappings and will have an #esphome controlled vent in my #homeassistant in a day or two. Bonus: I have two vents. Let the growing season begin!

Thingies mounted. Wiring time. Then harnesses.

Power has been distributed. The big relay board transforms the 12v to 5v, and I pass that down to the Huzzah board and daughter relay board. The Huzzah is 3v logic but can handle something like 18v in. Wild.

Ethernet wires have been redone and strapped in place. Colors match "B" pinout for those of you counting at home.

Looks like I can add it as a fan component in #esphome, thus #HomeAssistant. That will be really cool. I'll have to do a BOM and code on my wordpress for anyone to try out themselves.https://esphome.io/components/fan/speed.html
