OptoBoard

Time shows, that classic Arduino RelayBoard is not safe enough. So we developed our own OptoBoard, galvanically separrated from other 230V wires. How do You like It?

V3 prototype alive !

V3 prototype alive !

Hi guys, it has been so long time, but we're working on new Growduino prototype.

The demand is simple - need to have sensors working on long wires. Much longer than 3-5 meters as usual in small growrooms.

So thanks to my friend, electronics developer and engineer, I'm testing Growduino V3, with optional galvanic isolation for all the sensors. And also all of them are digital, not analog. This is crucial in order to get rid of the dependence of the measurement on the cable length and hence changes in the power supply. I have tested 50m long cables for light, temperature&humidity, bulb temperature, water temperature, water level, EC, pH and also CO2 sensors now :)
