A New England hacker has a Kickstarter campaign (currently about $1000 short of it's $20K goal) to produce small weather-proof boxes containing an Arduino, LiPo battery, and some form of wireless (they don't seem to specify; photo of a prototype shows a cell phone), into which a bunch of different sensors can be plugged, from weather (wind, pressure) to humidity, and I'm guessing eventually things like soil moisture.
$80 gets you a board and battery (no enclosure), and for $109 you get it with the enclosure. (They had a higher-tier that included a weather station, but they sold out.) -Tom -------- Original Message -------- Jack Shimek posted in Boston Area Maker Faire [on Facebook] Help put a fellow hacker's kickstarter over the top.
