How to get the BLED112 to connect to 8 devices
Hello, I’ve been helping a customer get 8 Mooshimeters connected through a BLED112 dongle using the Python API through a BLED112. The user found they were only able to connect to 3 Mooshimeters maximum, which seems odd because I know the BLED112 is based around the CC2540 (same chip as the Mooshimeter uses), which can […]
Defrosting the Blog – Kelvin Dropper
Hi Reader, Wow it’s been a while. In 2017 I took on too many contracts at once and totally lost control of my time. Once I fell out of the habit of posting in the blog, the barrier to posting again became progressively higher, because there was more and more to catch up on. In […]

Short Circuiting Battery Problem
Hi Reader, Summary The most recent manufacturing run of Mooshimeters has battery contacts that weren’t deburred properly. This has created a very frustrating problem where the burr (rough edge) of the battery contact cuts through the label of the AA battery, short circuiting the battery and causing it to heat up. It’s not a fire hazard but it’s […]
