Soil moisture meter / Bodenfeuchtigkeit Messgerät (with switch/mit Schalter)

thingiverse

I needed for this project: http://educ8s.tv/arduino-soil-moisture-sensor/ a housing. I extended the whole thing with a switch, because these cheap China soil moisture sensors unfortunately have the habit to dissolve in case of permanent current. But turning it on and off reading it works great for a while now.

Power over USB eliminates the function of the switch, but it works the same way!!! If you are interested in a portable version with 1x 18650 and a TP4056 charging chip, please leave a comment.
