SHT20 feature request

[Aapjes94]

I'd like to put in a feature request for SHT20 weatherproof temperature and humidity sensor. I run a very humid environment and would like to monitor soil moisture as well. Other sensors easily get corroded under these circumstances, but these seem to be up to the task. The sensor is essentially just an SHT-20 with the 4 data/power wires brought out so any SHT-2X code for a microcontroller will work. It uses I2C, I'm not sure if that will form a problem.

Do you have an example of a device? I do find SHT15 and SHT21 but no 20. I do see some people got a SHT21 working on a PI. So that should be not an issue. But I would like to test it myself so I need some hardware to test with.

I was thinking of something like this or this The way I read it, it runs the same software as a SHT21, but is a cheaper(less accurate version).

Hmmm... they look cool... I will look into it.

Hardware is ordered for testing... shipping is about 20 days :(

[Aapjes94]

Really cool that you're willing to do this, thanks a lot.

Just got update that shipment has started.... so still 20 days waiting :(

Thanks for the update. Chinese New Year delayed some of my orders as well.

Cool! Let me know if you get stuck with some of the documentation and I'll try to help.
