@alexsh1 regarding low memory problems, debug is intended for just that; debug. Once deployed, you can disable debug to ensure the longevity of your program. Probably the sketch eventually dies due to stack shortage.
@Anticimex Completely agree. Having said that I have a few nodes where I left debug purely for convenience. I do not want to re-flash the node to debug it in case need be. Right now I am in the process of changing the GW and may need to see node's debug.

I agree with you about 328 and 8bits. And that's a while i've done a board for these ;)
I won't use it in v2 though, tiny 9in1... not possible!
I also have custom SAMD boards, missing time to release those one too, but imho these mcu are not ultra low power (SAML is).I'll publish stl this week..

Phenomenal!
I have a stupid question.. clicking buy on the page.. what exactly does that buy you>?

@Konrad-Walsh You buy PCBs (10 0r 15 of them).
-
I am sorry.. I should have been more clear...
When you say PCB.. Is that a fully assembled product with all the mentioned sensors? Or is it a board and you add sensors to it..Please excuse my ignorance

@Konrad-Walsh Click on the link and see it yourself ;-)
PCB means a bare board and not a ready product. You have to procure parts and assemble it. -

@alexsh1 Thank you
@Konrad-Walsh said in 💬 MyMultisensors:
you
No problem.
@scalz There is a lot of interest from others to have an assembled sensor. Maybe as a suggestion, you would be interested talking to Itead or similar guys to get it arranged?
Personally, I am comfortable assembling an SMD board down to 0605 (though it is more difficult with the fan). My preference would be 0805 and up -
thx for the interest though :)
for the moment, the quotation i got was not so great imho.. oki i'll try again with other fabhouse for this one ;) as v2 will cover nrf only -
Still very much interested in buying the board with RFM69 footprint! Just saying!
-
@scalz do you mind me asking where you bought PIR lens, eeprom, and most important that fancy small antenna??? Thanks
sorry to be so quiet actually :)
I buy most of my ic at electronic suppliers like Mouser, Digikey, Arrow etc.- the flash is AT25DF512C-MAHN-T . But for coincells, ota+rfm69 is a bit too much power hungry, imho..
- the small pcb antenna is ANT-868-USP but it was for fun, as a simple wire antenna works as well and is cheaper.
- PIR and PIR lens are from aliexpress or ebay. PIR is LHI968. And fresnel type is 8120.

@scalz Thank you. I do shopping at those sites as well if I do a large order, but delivery charge is just killing if I need to order 1-3 items.
I am going to try 2450 with your board. It has 600mAh so I am hoping that using eeprom is fine with this coincell. Regarding 2032, I agree with you. I have a node, which consumes 5-6uA (with watchdog) and I had to disable the LED to use it with coincell. It just drains too much energy from a low capacity battery.
Yes, simple wire would work fine, but ANT-868-USP is just looking very tidy.

@alexsh1
nice assembly :+1: oshpark i guess ??
I agree too, for PIR use, CR2450 is a minimum.
Well, with my tinkering and some stock in case, i usually get very quickly the free shipping..
but you can find these flash at Arrow for instance, they just need 20€ min order.
I guess you already have those, but for example,, coincell holders etc are not really cheaper at aliexpress etc..
Time to do some stock for stuff you need perhaps :) -

Unfortunately, I do not have oven and do not use smd stencil, which means the process is very long and manual. A lot of hot air fan work under the magnifying glass, but given this is not a board with too many components, it works.You should get some commission from Arrow. I have just placed my order for eeprom and some parts ;))
