I've build my own, small and easy weather station:

It's based on an ESP8266-Microcontroller (Wemos D1 mini), which is reading the data from a sensor called "BME280" and sending them via WIFI to a homebuild API.

To be able to install the sensor somewhere outside, I've designed this case.

It consists out of three parts:

  • Controllerhousing
  • Rain protection
  • Barclamp 

The BME280 is available in different sizes, I've got one single- and one double-layered.
This is, why two different housings are available.
Please check your sensor and choose the right model above.

The bar I attached the sensor to, is from another project, a few years ago:

To connect the clamp with the rain-protection-model use an 8mm rod.

Here are two video I've made, while building this thing (Sorry, german only):

Post-Printing

Avoiding environmental influences

The models are printed with PETG. To avoid environmental influences, I've primed and painted all parts multiple times.
