Overview

Designed to be simple to build, low parts cost, and low maintenance.

Needs:

  • Wirelessly transmit temperature and relative humidity to a main unit.
  • Run off a single AA, two AA, or a 9v battery

Wants:

  • Two pins who's grounded status could be reported (think a door sensor, or something)
  • Two pins that could be set to send 3.3v or 5v to run an relay
  • Thermostat control?

Status

In progress
