Problem: the kids take showers or are "on the can" for longer than 30min.
|
|
|
|
Solution: make an alarm that goes off when the door has been closed for 30min.

## Notes
|
|
|
|
Started with this kit: [Huzzah! Adafruit.io Internet of Things Feather ESP8266 - WiFi Starter Kit](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2680)
|
|
|
|
But I needed a clock to measure 30min, so I am now using an old, low-voltage RPI Model A+ v1.1.

|
Still considering the solder kit: [Ladyada's Electronics Toolkit](https://www.adafruit.com/product/136)
