“Up and running in minutes after a false start but recovered quickly owing the prompt technical support. Good excuse to refresh minimal soldering skills. Robust module supersedes previous models. Temperature (with humidity) sensors are a dime a dozen, the barometric sensor is an added plus but the air quality sensor is the deal breaker for the price.”
“I love a good sensor board, especially when they are small and work easily. The BME680 is just that - it is very small and very simple to setup, thanks to Pimoroni's fantastic guides.
However, it would be nice if there were additional guides / examples available, especially a function reference guide, which Pimoroni tend to provide, just not in this case for some reason.
It would also be great to have an example available where you can combine the BME680 with a Blinkt to show the status of the air quality too, just to help get the creative juices flowing.
I'm using mine with Beebotte and I push live data from the BME680 to a dashboard that graphs the temperature, pressure, humidity and air quality and it's been working great so far.”
