great sensors: temperature sensors and sensors

wonderful sensors. It would be nice (and have a large audience) if they had a connector system (3.5mm TRS connector or Cat5 connector), but I managed to adapt them.

Pros
  • nice packaging
Cons
  • 0

Works well, long cable is convenient

I use them in some home temperature sensors, both indoors and outdoors. Three are used in my heated outdoor cat house for our sadly free-roaming cat. I measure air temperature, bed heater and ambient temperature in the cat house and it just works. I have a lot of experience with 1-Wire devices and in this case I'm using an ESP8266 with paid firmware to send data once a minute. Works for 9 months without any problems.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

Works great with Raspberry Pi temp recorder

I bought these about a year ago and used them connected to a Raspberry Pi single board computer to build a temp recorder. They worked great! Ten foot leads are very flexible and the metal sleeve provides good thermal conductivity to the surface being measured - I used aluminum tape for this purpose. I haven't tested if they're actually waterproof, but the heat shrink tubing fits snugly to the metal tips - so probably yes. I haven't tested the accuracy, but since it's basically a one-chip…

Pros
  • High test scores for grip and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
