Reliable water detection
I used three of these in a tank monitoring project. They have been running for two weeks without false positives. The digital output makes interfacing with microcontrollers very simple.

Perfect for my Arduino rain alarm
This sensor works exactly as described. The sensitivity adjustment via the potentiometer is very responsive, allowing me to fine-tune when the alarm triggers. Great value for the price.

Works well for leak detection
Placed one under my washing machine. It detects small droplets quickly. The only downside is the connector cable is a bit short, so I had to extend it myself.

Good quality but needs calibration
The build quality is solid and the soldering points are clean. Just remember to spend time calibrating the threshold; otherwise, it might trigger too easily with humidity alone.

Excellent sensitivity control
The LM393 comparator does a great job. I can adjust it to ignore minor condensation but still catch actual water accumulation. Very satisfied with this purchase.

Great for learning projects
Bought this for a university IoT project. It was easy to connect to an ESP32 and the code examples found online worked immediately. Highly recommend for students.
Q: How do I clean the sensor if it gets dirty or corroded?
A: You can gently wipe the sensing traces with a soft cloth dampened with distilled water or isopropyl alcohol. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the nickel plating.
Q: Does this work with 3.3V logic systems like ESP8266?
A: Yes, the operating voltage range is 3.3V to 5V, making it fully compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers such as the ESP8266, ESP32, and standard 5V Arduinos.
Q: What is the maximum current this module can handle?
A: The module is designed for signal detection, not power switching. The output current should typically remain below 20mA to ensure the longevity of the comparator chip.
Q: Is this sensor waterproof for long-term submersion?
A: The sensing area is designed to detect water, but the electronic components and solder joints on the back are not fully waterproof. For long-term submersion, we recommend conformal coating or placing the electronics in a waterproof enclosure while exposing only the sensor traces.
Q: Can this sensor measure the exact depth of the water in millimeters?
A: No, this module provides a digital switch output (high/low) indicating the presence or absence of water on the sensing traces. It does not provide analog depth measurement data.
