The UV Sensor is used for detecting the intensity of incident ultraviolet(UV) radiation. This form of electromagnetic radiation has shorter wavelengths than visible radiation. The UV Sensor is based on the sensor GUVA-S12D which has a wide spectral range of 200nm-400nm. The module outputs electrical signal which varies with the UV intensity, which gives your suggestion if it is a good idea to beach today.
And off course you can set your LoRa ‘use sun blocker !’ alarm …
A lot of different sensors for measuring distance, light, gas, temperature, humidity, PIR, flame sensors and much more.
The flame sensor is nice. I use these in a laser cutter and as soon as a flame is detected the laser and fan are stopped and an alarm will sound. Also, the laser is moved back to homing position to prevent damage to lenses or mirrors.
Could be a nice sensor to check for fire in hot & dry periods.
also available from TinyTronics. I just picked up some stuff in EIndhoven today: “Yes - LoRa is becoming a big hit - I am also looking at some LoRa modules to sell.”
I previously bought a lot of stuff directly from China, but after having some problems with faulty stuff, I now buy most of my stuff from this shop.
