Soil Geeking @ Lifepatch with Matt

Great opportunity to do some testing and sharing of protocols with Matthew Daniel from Global Urban Forest. This turned out to be a great little gathering of overlapping networks from GOSH, our-sci, hackteria and the local soil, gardening and permaculture geeks around Lifepatch.

Immerhin kann man den Sensor per Hd-Pin (7s gegen GND) auf 400ppm (Außenluft) eichen.

This one I ordered 2.... but check I2C adress. and connect "WAK" to GND

  • #define CCS811_ADDR 0x5A //Alternate I2C Address
  • myBME280.settings.I2CAddress = 0x76;
