Support for negative values? #38

Is it possible to display negative (-2 °C) values on this hygrometer?

It does display negative temperatures. But I don't know how it will display double digit negative values as there is no third 7-segment digit for the temperature. In the spec sheet it says the device is not suited for under 0 °C. I also remember when testing low temperatures that the display gets dark and unresponsive at some point.

Thx. According to some disassembled pictures, it sports Sensirion's SHTC3 sensor which is capable for measuring between -40 - 125 ˚C.

My plan is to get rid of the firmware and rebuild it, and use the large displays (where now the clock is) to display the outside temperature (which is sometimes negative).
