Hi All,
I have seen a sensor in cargo scanning but i don't know what is that. I guess these sensors are proximity but i am not sure.
anyone can help me about that?

@chabo_mq Could this possibly be an IR light barrier?

I would really like to get OTA working here as it's freezing outside and I have to go there to update the software in the greenhouse control system. So please, can we have a 'how to' step-by-step guide to OTA? Please? S.

It probably has to do with fewer people buying them once summer ends, so companies might lower prices to clear out stock before winter.

I bought the Every because it implied it was backward compatible with the nano. No, it's not, as we found out. Be that as it may, any word on a getting the Every working with mySensors?
Best VOC sensor for detecting a wide range of VOC's?

@eiten I haven't yet made any progress on finding a good VOC sensor, but along the way I did find out something interesting regarding CO2: namely, if you sleep with your bedroom door closed at night, then the odds are good that the CO2 levels rise to surprisingly high and unhealthy levels. The better CO2 sensors are factory calibrated and never again need recalibration for the life of the sensor (usually around 10 years or so), because they are used in HVAC systems to control fresh air intake to guarantee indoor air quality. As a for instance, here is one such CO2 sensor: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/senseair/006-0-0008/15790694 At around $50 for just the sensor element itself, it's not exactly cheap, but then again, I'd say it's worth it, because who wants to be burdened by remembering to calibrate their CO2 sensors? Ideally, I'd like to find a sensitive VOC sensor that also will never require calibration. Nearly all, and maybe all, of the off-the-shelf IAQ montoring stuff that you might buy for, say, $300 or less seems to require periodic calibration. For that reason, this might be one of those occasions where build is rather than buy.

There are air quality monitors that can detect VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and some that claim to pick up marijuana smoke specifically. Devices like the Airthings Wave Plus, uHoo Air Sensor, or Plume Labs Flow could help identify changes in air quality. Another option is checking with industrial-grade smoke detection companies that provide sensors for businesses and schools, and some of them may also have solutions suited for home use. If you want more information on vape-related products, including how they work and their components, check out Geek Bar Pulse X Platinum Edition. Understanding vape devices can help recognize patterns of use or detect scents earlier.
