Basic information

The sensor works the same as Elgato EVE Degree!

Features:

  • Temperature Measuring
  • Humidity Measuring
  • Barometric Pressure Measuring (only in 3rd party HomeKit apps!)
  • Custom characteristic for detecting your altitude (used for proper barometric calculation)
  • Support for SSD1306 OLED screen
  • Switching Temperature Display Units between Celsius and Fahrenheit (also Barometric Pressure between hPa/inHg)
  • Reset button
  • Data history (not reliable enough, so its beta)

This project is based on ESP8266 modul, a cheap Bosch BME280 sensor that can be found on AliExpress!

Please take attention when buying the sensor because BMP280 looks nearly the same as BME280 but it doesn't feature humidity readings!

New Features in v2.x.x:

  • Added support for SSD1306 Oled display (only i2c bus version, 128x64px)
    OLED screen using GPIO13 - SDA (Wemos D7) and GPIO14 - SCL (Wemos D5) pins
    Please keep in mind this feature is still in development!

If you don't want to use OLED screen, please install the latest 1.x.x release!
