    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..

      @scalz ATSAM D21 is already compatible with MySensors, whereas ATSAM L21 may be in the pipeline. So for now, we all are stuck with SAMD.

      Looking forward to your stl

          @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.

                  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

                    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

                          @Carywin a source code for what? There are many combinations of sensors.
                          I am sure @scalz can help :-)

                                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.
                                  An example of link for the lens:

                                  @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.

                                      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 :)

                                        @scalz yes, it is oshpark- I usually use them as the quality is exceptional. And typically I only need 3-4 pcbs anyway.
                                        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 ;))

                                          Good job! Looking forward for a assembled version for buying. (NRF, of course :grinning: )
