Probably too simple to think about, but I would like to see if this is possible:
I want to have a simple red led, connected to the breadboard that switches on or off on a certain pimatic condition.
How should I wire it and how can I control it ??

You can use a GpioSwitch which is part of pimatic-gpio. A wiring example can be found as part of onoff which is the base driver used for pimatic-gpio - https://github.com/fivdi/onoff
EDIT: In the example a 470 Ohms (5% tolerance) 0.25W resistor is used.

No worries, you’re not spamming! It is absolutely sensible to ask this kind of questions. Maybe you can write short how-to articles on your findings to help other users. This would be great.
