Hi, I am looking at adding a UV sensor to my weather station.

Can anyone recommend a UV sensor ideally I2C that is compatible with ESPhome?

Thanks

Thanks Dave. Do these need to be directly exposed to the sun?

I plan to integrate it with my current weather station and thinking of the best place to position it.

I haven’t used one myself but it’s going to need light hitting it in order to work. I would probably cut a small window in the top of that enclosure and glue in a small piece of clear perplex.

Yea ok I was think along the same lines if direct sunlight is required.

Thank you!

Any screenshot of your setup @deanfourie ? :slight_smile: Thinking to do this also, but don’t know how I can protect it from rain and expose it to sunlight?
