    Hi.
    I have looked in forum for this, but did not find complete answer.
    I have an irrigation system with three 9V latching valves. I also have a Rpi sitting around unused.
    I wonder if OSPi version could be able to operate latching valves too and what is the correct setup for this.

    I looked also to OSBee but that seems not to have the possibility to use sensors like rain or soil.

    Can you please help?

    OSPi only works for 24VAC sprinkler valves and does not work for latching valves. It would take quite a lot of work to modify it to work with latching valves.

    The only controllers that we have currently that work with latching valves are OpenSprinkler Latch, and OSBee. OpenSprinkler Latch runs the full OpenSprinkler firmware and supports sensors. OSBee on the other hand, is meant for small projects that need no more than 3 zones.
