Perfect for my automation project

This wind sensor module worked exactly as described. The sensitivity adjustment is very precise, allowing me to trigger my window closers only when the wind gets strong enough. Easy to integrate with my Arduino setup.

Easy to use for beginners

As someone new to sensors, I found this very straightforward. The documentation could be slightly better, but there are plenty of online tutorials. It detects wind changes instantly.

Works well in moderate wind

The sensor is responsive to gentle breezes, which is great. However, in very high winds, the vane spins so fast it occasionally triggers false positives. Good for general use, but maybe not for extreme weather monitoring.

Great value for money

I bought three of these for different zones in my garden. They all perform consistently. The digital output makes it simple to connect to any microcontroller without complex coding.

Exactly what I needed

Compact size fits perfectly inside my custom enclosure. The current induction mechanism seems durable compared to optical sensors I've used before. No issues after two months of outdoor exposure.

Reliable but needs calibration

Good build quality and consistent readings once calibrated. It took a few tries to get the threshold right for my greenhouse vents, but now it works flawlessly. Would recommend having a multimeter handy during setup.

5 FAQ

Q: Does it come with the mounting screws?

A: Yes, the package includes two small stainless steel screws and spacers for mounting the sensor onto a flat surface or pole adapter.

Q: Can this sensor detect wind direction or just speed?

A: This module is designed to detect wind presence and relative speed based on the rotation of the vane, triggering a switch when a set threshold is reached. It does not provide specific directional data (N, S, E, W).

Q: What is the maximum wind speed this can handle before breaking?

A: The mechanical structure is tested to withstand winds up to 100 km/h. However, for safety and accuracy, we suggest using it in environments where typical wind speeds do not exceed 80 km/h.

Q: Can I connect this directly to a Raspberry Pi GPIO?

A: Yes, since it outputs a digital signal, you can connect it directly to a Raspberry Pi GPIO pin. Just ensure you share a common ground between the sensor and the Pi.

Q: Is this waterproof for outdoor installation?

A: The module itself is not fully waterproof. We recommend installing it inside a weatherproof enclosure with an opening for the wind vane to ensure long-term durability outdoors.
