Review on 🌡️ Pack of 15 DS18B20 Waterproof Temperature Sensors (1m/3.2ft Cable) -55°C to +125°C, Compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi by Paul Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Funny and pretty accurate

I connected them to a Raspberry Pi Pico by crimping a couple of Duponte connectors and inserting a 4.7kΩ resistor between the power and data lines. So far, so good. When I took my temperature she said I was 97F so it looked like it was within tolerance. I haven't checked anything else but I'm guessing I'm about 98.6 F? It appears to be consistent in measurements and produces a smooth chart when taking a sample every 30 seconds to measure heat of fermentation. The probe itself is very responsive when I hold it in my hand. As I sample every second, I see it growing almost in real time. The transition from room temperature to "exact" body temperature takes about 30 seconds.

Pros
  • Temperature Sensors and Sensors
Cons
  • Damaged
