Sounds like your problem is network connectivity and geography more than anything else.
- You can build a small arduino wifi temperature sensor with a nodeMCU and a ds18b20 on a breadboard for under $15, but that doesn't help you if wifi doesn't reach. - You can also buy a small inside/outside temperature+humidity Acurite wireless sensor for under $20. I wouldn't worry too much about which radios they use and conflicts there. - Or put the sensors on a pi and have your main weewx setup query that pi for the remote data over wifi (that's what I do at home). FWIW, I upgraded my wifi 18+ months ago to a Ubiquiti AC Lite and that made a huge distance here. The Ubiquiti gear has very powerful radios. I'm sure it would reach 50m line of sight, but if it's over a hill it's hard to say. There are lots of ways to do wireless repeaters etc but that ups the cost and complexity a lot. The temperature sensor stuff is easy in comparison. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
