Only the sensor itself is expensive, so no business.

I would have to live in a place where there are frequent lightning strikes to be able to adjust it.

Plus it’s in testing stage…waiting for the storm.

Still waiting

Thanks for this. I just put my test setup in a waterproof box and placed it outside, and the “Disturber” alerts were almost every second, even with a foil screen inside the box between the Wemos and the sensor. Since I set the power to the same as you, the alerts have stopped.

We had a storm 2 days ago so I know the sensor was working fine on a breadboard so waiting for another to confirm it all works.

Thanks again :grinning:
