Soldered one:
- range is bad with the breakout board (like, 2cm...)
- range is a bit disappointing with SMD TTP223N at around 10cm: enough to detect proximity through objects but not enough for all applications I planned. I'll make more tests (could be a bit better powered on battery with no wire behind the electrode) but I'll probably have to improve the electrode shape in a new revision.

@Ron said in Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor: @Puneit-Thukral Thanks. I am not quite sure, so correct me please if I am wrong, but I think I am already using the MiniCore bootloader with platformIO. Or do I need to configure to explicitly use the MiniCore bootloaders? Also I have set BOD to disabled as I read somewhere that no BOD can also save battery. hi I'm not sure, but I believe I'm already using the MiniCore bootloader with platformIO. Please tell me if I'm incorrect. Is it necessary to set the MiniCore bootloaders explicitly?

If I search ebay being based in Holland, I see you can get a boards with a W5100 from the UK, Germany and Italy for reasonable prices (13 Euro, 4 Euro shipping). What happens if you search ebay from Sweden and do not set Worldwide?

@hek said: @joshmosh said: Would gw.begin(incomingMsg, MY_NODEID, true) turn this node into a working repeater ? Yes, this enables the repeater feature. OK,thank you. This will save me an additional node.. Cheers Josh

@tlustoch The node is a very simple one. So I never considered boot loaders, as the node would not need changing sketches during it's lifetime. I have boot loading functionality on my other designs, this one is a minimal board. Any extra chip would beat the purpose of the word "minimal". It's a dumb node for a reason

@mr_red I have a zipped snapshot of all the 3d step/wrl models that I used to build my projects so far. It was quite some work to gather them all and align with the footprints using the kicad stepup tools. It's not complete - still needs some more work:simple_smile: but it should help you or anyone else to get started into MCAD integration using FreeCAD and kicad stepup tools. Maybe it's not very easy to start when using free tools but hey they are "FREE" so we cannot ask for more. But the nice thing is that once you get used it will be really easy to do your stuff and to go forward. Oh and FreeCAD can be so powerful after you learn it - I was really amazed what you can do with it(it has it's quirks and downsides but once you master it - oh, well...). There's also: https://www.onshape.com/ - pretty powerful this one too and it has more advanced features than FreeCAD but the downside is that it's a cloud based solution: it's free for public documents but you never know when they will go to paid accounts only so yeah...I don't really like the idea to depend on something that it's hosted and the application is not on my PC along with the documents that I create with it. Cloud solutions have their flexibility but you're locked and you depend entirely on that hosted service. Ok, enough talking...I uploaded the zip file here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/kzh1l9uo40cpj1u/kicad_stepup_packages.zip

Thank you for great project. I built it, it works fine except occasionally it starts flashing red when was left along for couple of hours without any objects moving in front of the sensor. It happens at least couple times per day. Sensor replacement did not fix it. The only way to get out of it is to restart Arduino. Any idea what is going on? Found fix for this problem at https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/1734/parking-sensor/57 by Dan.S. Please update the library.
