What cable for Soil Sensors #2

Closed lordratner closed 1 year ago

lordratner commented 1 year ago

Hi! I just got my droplet set up, and it is excellent! Very cool.

What cables do you use for extending the connection to the soil sensors? I don't know what the plug is called, so I don't know what to search for.

Thanks!

Hi, I'm very glad you liked it!! The droplet has ( JST 2.54mm pitch 3-pin ) connector, and for the sensor, it depends on your sensor :) if you use a sensor like mine, it's JST 2.54mm pitch 3-pin too. You can buy a cable for (3d printers "End Stops" ) https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DErXOBt just look at the polarity and pin order!!!!! "can be easily swapped if needed" If it's not difficult, leave a review in the store :) Thanks!!

I forgot to say if the cable is long better to find a shielded cable.
