Well done man, I'm certain Shyam is mature as he is smart and will not take offense either, I mean stereotypes wouldn't be funny if there wasn't some truth behind them! Cheer mate! 🍻
Great video! I like how you showed the entire process of assembling the watch without making the video too long.

I like your work, let me just say some constructive criticism 1- keep eye on your audio level, i don't know what video editor you use, watch the two moving colorful bars that moves while playing video - these show audio level. You want them to barely touch the top all the time. In your video - the music is too loud and you are speaking quietly. 2- use flux on solder joints, do not be afraid of reheating the joint until it looks nice and professional. If you put too much solder, pull it away with copper strand wire or solder wick. Also remember to clean your solder tip (wire sponge for dishes is best bet). After soldering you can remove excess flux with IPA or something similar. But you are doing great, keep up at it.
@@memberwhen22 before commenting his watch as "IMPRACTICAL SMART WATCH", tell me something, have you ever created some tech on your own, if yes please send us a link we'll see who's impractical 😉
Nice work! And thanks for sharing the files. Just a quick tip about the SMD soldering - you can do all the surface mount components with paste and hot air. A stencil will speed up the job but you can do it just fine without one. Just put a small drop of solder paste on each pad, then place each surface mount component, and then heat the board with hot air. Keep the nozzle moving in a small circle to avoid overheating any single spot. First go over the whole board to warm it up, then heat a few pads at a time until the solder flows nicely. Then move on to the next few pads. This way you'll only need to use the iron for leaded components and fixing any SMD joints you may not be happy with.
You could add regular watch functions like chronograph, alarm, and such. Or redesign the PCB so it fits in a watchcase, with buttons on the side and it looks more like a regular watch!
Great project. I have a suggestion for the two buttons. Use the left button to toggle thru multiple relays that could be listed on the screen. After pausing on a selection, the screen could change to the screen that you showed. Then use the right button to switch the relay. The left button would go back to selecting a different relay. This way you could control many more relays.
@@shyam-ravi Hey there! I love this video and Shawn's idea here would be great. Did you ever implement this into the code? Thanks for reading this. Marton
hello shawn hill..while completing this project iam unable to upload the code hough iam press and hold sw5..please help me to complete this project..thank you
Hi. Cool project. Couple of suggestions for future projects form a guy with 20+ years doing electronics design though: 1. Use flux, while soldering module / anything else you solder with solder wire. Sure, it has flux in it, but the flux inside solder wire is usually not the best and you do need more of it. 2. When placing a component, tin one pad a bit and while keeping iron to it, place your part - it's much more easy that way. 3. Keep both of your arms on table when soldering and positioning parts - you will be much more precise and work much faster that way. Work with your fingers, not all hands and arms. Hold the iron and tweezer in your hands like you would hold a spoon and rest the lower side and smallest finger of your hands on the table. 4. Do not use the vice to hold PCB - it eats up the heat from soldering iron and air gun. It also raises the board high and you can not keep your arms on table, so your hands get shaky. 5. You can use a transformer winding wire to make PCB fixes on first prototypes - looks and works very well, much more easy to solder to small spacing pins. 6. I find it simpler and more easy to put solder on all pads, clean the board and then apply liquid flux paste like AMTECH NC-559-AS on pad or part before soldering it with hot air. Solder paste works good only with the paste mask. You could just get a plastic single - use paste masks from china too. Keep up the good work and I hope these tips help you in future :)
No man....anyone can do it!it just takes a bit of practice of electronics , soldering and prototyping !and , It would be much cheaper for you ( I mean , the people from china ) because you wouldn't have to spend money for shipping !
Hey! They have since locked the Yahoo API and I am working on code that allows you to not only switch between different wifi's using wifimanager and also I am switching the API to one that is much better in general and lastly I am re-writing a lot of the blynk integration as your use of delays isn't great, instead the control of the lights will be switched to the Blynk API rather than blynk bridge. I will post it here when I am done.
Hey, that's really great of you! I really appreciate it. Don't forget to share it. And could you explain more on how you're modifying the blynk bridge to reduce delay?
@@shyam-ravi I am still waiting for the parts to be able to figure out what the API returns as a string and then write up the if statements for the button detection. The API I will be using was suggested by the blynk community and more information about it can be found here: blynkapi.docs.apiary.io/#reference/0/ I am not sure if it will reduce the delays, but since you had a lot of blocking code in your sketch, this will make it more efficient. Basically, this removes the necessity for the blynk bridge etc and it simply runs get commands to make it read and change the values on the pins of the relay board. Thanks again for your reply and I can't wait to have the relay board's final parts to be able to finalize all of the code. I'll be sure to keep updating here and on the blynk forums. Thanks again! Marton
That is AWESOME! The fact that you literally designed it from circut, to circuit board, to putting it together from reclaimed components - DUDE! AWESOME!!! Since it's an ESP8266, you could theoretically use ESPhome and Home Assistant. This would allow you to manage it via YAML, flash it OTA, and make your button-clicks significantly quicker to apply the changes - which would be configurable inside Home Assistant through automations. Also, how about an e-ink display to help save battery life?
I well like to buy this watch ready to use in a gold filled old led style case or stainless steel,is just amazing how creative a joung guy can be wen they are smart…congratulations boy……
Very nice project indeed. I would suggest replacing the hardware buttons with a LSM9DS1 and use gestures instead. That way you can use it with 1 hand. e.g. twist hand to wake up (show time), twist again to change function, move your hand up for OK and down for Back. It will also make your pcb smaller but will add about $7 for the extra part. If you have enough memory left you can also add cool functions like speedometer (for when riding your bike), compass etc.
I am just wondering if this watch works out of reach of wifi. If the guy put ssid and password to the code of ESP8266 ESP-12E, is he able to use other networks? Can he change ssid and password? What if Blynk goes down?
The watch is completely based on internet. So it wont work in the absence of wifi. You can turn ON your mobile Wifi hotspot. And you can't change the network from the watch(you have to change SSID and password in the code). But I might develop a simple UI to do so. And if blynk goes down, then only the feature of switching the relays will cease to work.
@@shyam-ravi What can be possible is renaming the mobile's hotspot name and password same as that of the one you have at home (that was configured at home). Besides the difference in the channel, it will work.

Brilliant and cheers.
Great project and engaging video - subscribed. The only criticism I can offer is that the bit of the board that the straps loop through looks pretty thin, like they could snap easily.
