    @icebob hey :) the used pir consumes ~50uA. Since my last modifications I replaced the stepup and the dht with a si7021 sensor and the external pullup with 1m ohm. Now the sleeping current is ~190uA

    @n3ro ohh, it's great. Which PIR are you using?

        @n3ro I Mean the sensors advised by the Mysensors store...

          Hey Guys,
          Today I have completed my first multisensor.

          As base I used a cheap china fire detectors and the MYS PCB board.

          http://www.ebay.de/itm/like/Optisch-Feuermelder-Rauchmelder-Funkrauchmelder-Rauchdetektor-Rauchwarnmelder/141252448370?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&_trksid=p5197.c100068.m2280&_trkparms=ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140211130857%26meid%3D07bc95de38bb49768007aea7e82e859d%26pid%3D100068%26clkid%3D6724945852786999307&_qi=RTM2052467

          All components fits very well in the housing.

          Unfortunately, the modified HC-SR501 do not work well with <= 3V with the DHT (delay in the sketch). Now I use this:
          http://www.amazon.de/Niederspannung-PIR-Infrarot-Bewegungssensor-erkennt-Modul/dp/B008EGH3FM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1433801387&sr=8-1&keywords=B008EGH3FM

          And it works very great!

          The used Sketch is this:

          wiring diagram coming soon;)

          Great...
          Hope this will work for a long time on a battery?
          What battery's you are using?

          1 problem< WHERE CAN I FIND:
          #include <readVcc.h>

          Domoticz, with a lot of working hardware, include mysensors :-)
          OpenPLI, RuneAudio, Solarmeter, etc......

          Not a great builder of software and hardware, more a user...
          Only i try to do my best :-(

            Hey,
            Yes it works very good with 2 aaa Batts.

            You can find the read library here

              But I don't use the dht anymore.

              This works much better!

                yes i saw your better solution..the si7021 is using less power i read..
                Where do i have to place the: long readVcc
                And how do ik make that .H file?

                How long is the multisensor running? on what battery?

                  @Dylano what do you mean with long readVcc?

                  The battery life is different because of the frequency of triggering from the pir.

                  Some nodes works for 2 month. Other ones for 6..

                    sorry, it is working now: what do you mean with long readVcc?
                    I use the sketch battery pir, to test

                    Only the report of the vcc how many times is the sketch reading this?
                    And where can i see the status?
                    I use Domoticz as controller.

                        great, i see in domoticz the value great!!!...[ when power is low i get an alert. ]
                        You have a lot of sketches :-)
                        Is het possible that you build a sketch include your pir-battery-ldr, and a light switch, or a option so i can switch a ledlight.
                        Like a pir-battery-ldr-switch... :-)

                        I will try to rebuild a solarpowerlight
                        With a solar powerbank, and a:Light

                        So i can have a Domoticz controlled solarpower light and motion/ldr [my]sensor
                        Only i cannot make a sketch for this... [ if you want, i will pay for it..., or a donation to charity organization ]
