Hello, before you buy a sensor, think about what you will need to measure, relative or absolute humidity, air or soil, what the measurement range is expected to be, whether hysteresis is important, and what accuracy is needed. The most accurate sensor is optical. Pay attention to the IP protection class, the operating temperature range, depending on the specific conditions where the ambient temperature sensor will be used, whether the parameters are suitable for you.
