Another Oh-By-The-Way…

It turns out that my original plan to have the lithium ion batteries, that were SUPPOSED to be charged by solar, didn’t […]

The code is working quite well; no real glitches so far (fingers crossed). I added a PCB Yagi antenna that I got […]

I’ve finally added outside temperature monitoring for my garden deep bed using a Wemos D1 Mini I got some time ago. The […]

…and I haven’t let the magic smoke out of any of the parts…so far. I’m getting caught up (read: side-tracked) with the […]

So here is a picture of my ALMOST finished rain gauge 1-wire counter refit. It works great EXCEPT the coin cell is […]

I replaced the magnet and now it works great. Apparently, the break in the ring magnet was enough to make magnetic field […]

This One ring does not rule them all. 🙁 The connections are all good now on the angle sensor PCB but during […]

Apparently, I need to practice more on my SMT soldering skills. I connected up the new angle sensor PCB to the weather […]

Well, after screwing up the footprints for the IC’s on both PCB’s (this board AND the DS2423 rain gauge board), I soldered […]

Just received the re-worked PCBs from JLCPCB and the replaced IC pads look like they will work a lot better. While I […]
