Are there air quality meters available at affordable prices (say, <= $100) that can easily be integrated with home automation systems? (like, have an api, or that connect to cloud services so that I can capture the traffic?) Also, any recommendations on outdoor sensors? There have been a few crowd sourced efforts over thale last few years, but I've not been very impressed by them.
- sberder 8y agoI don't know of any cheap outdoor sensors, they are more tricky than indoor as wind (air flow in the sensor), temperature, humidity and dust become more of a prominent problem. For a cheap sensor, laser egg publishes API endpoints to get latest data. You can also fairly easily add a plantower to an arduino/raspi kind of setup. Pantower is a sensor that will give you reliable output OOTB, can be improved but good enough.
