This is a custom housing for a BME280 temperature/humidity/pressure sensor and a raspberry pi zero, designed to be mounted on the underside of a garage soffit. The design draws inspiration from Micromet's radiation shield but offers improved adaptability for under-soffit mounting. While this setup may not provide the most accurate outdoor air temperature readings, its effectiveness remains to be seen. This housing requires 5V DC power to function and comes with a convenient cable management system. A small hole is cut in the soffit to accommodate the power cord, which can then be routed through the base of the sensor for neatness. Alternatively, the wire can exit from the side of the base. The design's modular architecture allows it to seamlessly integrate with other sensors by simply modifying the 'Sensor Holder' part to fit the new sensor PCB dimensions. This adaptability makes the housing highly versatile and easy to customize for various applications. To assemble the complete housing, you will need to print five separate components: * Base: 1 unit * Fin: 4 units * Cap: 1 unit * CPU Cover: 1 unit * Sensor Holder: 1 unit
