Weather station with no moving parts!Final design! See the PCB with the daughter boards? Clean design and wiring! Solar panel and a Renogy controller. We have cracked the weird RS332 port on the Renogy and are now transmitting vast quantities of solar data. It works! Solar Powered. 433MHz signal to the Raspberry Pi. Mini Pro Plus Arduino compatible controller. No moving parts! This is for a University of Idaho research project in Sandpoint, Idaho. #switchdoclabs #weather #solar #weathersense #weatherrack3 #433mhz #diy #kickstarter #arduino #renogy #govandals #idaho #sandpoint #sandpointidaho https://www.instagram.com/p/CnZ5u8JPwLq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

More #iot prototyping. This is a wireless #weatherrack link (anemo/vane/rain and temp/hum). Using #raspberrypi and #SunAirPlus (ina3221 current measuring) to start reducing power for the #arduino #tx. The Pi measures the tx #arduino current as we start implementing sleep modes. With no sleep yet it's about 80ma on average. Need to get it down to 1 ma on average if possible. by switchdoclabs @ http://ift.tt/1qSDIBo
