🌬️ Exciting news! Our datalogger, specially designed for our small wind turbine, is working! For the prototype version, we opted for a through-hole component design, making hand soldering a breeze.

Check out these pictures of the populated PCB in action! ⚡️🔧

Check out our latest datalogger!⚡️
We've developed a new datalogger prototype for our windkit, but it's also perfect for monitoring hybrid off-grid systems. 🏝
It collects weather data from an Ecowitt WS80 via RF 868.
