Good value kit

Easy to configure the sensitivity potentiometer. Relay clicks loudly but functions well for my small pump.

Reliable detection

No false positives so far. The corrosion resistant probe is a huge plus for long term soil contact.

Perfect for automation

Works flawlessly with my Arduino setup. The capacitive sensor is much more durable than resistive ones.

Solid component

5 FAQ

Q: What is the maximum water pump size supported?

A: The relay supports up to 10A. Please check your pump's current draw to ensure it stays within this limit.

Q: Is the probe completely waterproof?

A: The probe is designed for soil insertion and water exposure, but the connector junction should be kept dry.

Q: How do I calibrate the sensitivity?

Q: Does this come with a power adapter?

A: No, the kit includes the sensor and relay module only. You will need to supply your own power source.

Q: Can this module operate on 3.3V logic?

A: The module power input requires 5V or 12V, but the signal output is compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers.
