Hi all, This is semi-OT but I am curious to know what temperature/humidity/flood sensors everyone out there has experience with. I am looking for something to use at home, but I would like to stay away from WiFi and smart home devices. Basically, I am looking for something simple, which plugs into Ethernet, and makes its data available via HTTP and/or telnet (or any other simple text-based protocol). If it includes some other fancy features (e.g., sending email alerts, SNMP traps, etc.) then that is OK too. I don't care whether it does onboard data storage. I intend to integrate this with my own existing monitoring solution that already includes Icinga, some custom scripts, logcheck alerts, and a few other odds and ends (e.g., email alerts from apcupsd for power outages). Any suggestions? Regards, -Roberto
Maybe you could think about some of those sensors: https://www.modmypi.com/electronics/sensors-347/temperhum-usb-temperature-and-humidity-sensor/ https://www.modmypi.com/electronics/sensors-347/temper-gold-original-usb-temperature-sensor https://www.modmypi.com/electronics/sensors-347/temper2-usb-dual-temperature-sensor/For example, I managed to get some incomplete results with TEMPerHUM temperature & humidity sensor and temper-python (https://github.com/padelt/temper-python) in Wheezy. I sent my reports to ModMyPi, www.modmypi.com, to post them on their website. You may check there. I wish I had an option to get the monitored data written into a file that, in turn, my amateur radio software could recognize as a source of APRS 'weather data'. (When I experimented with that sensor, a command executed in CLI only returned a single line of data at a time, so that did not satisfy my needs. So I would appreciate whether temper-python or some other software could be upgraded in that direction.)
