Keep separate humidity probe? #7

Open patricktokeeffe opened 6 years ago

patricktokeeffe commented 6 years ago

Replacing the BMP180/BMP280 (T/P) with BME280 (T/P/RH) makes relative humidity from the HTU21D-F (T/RH) redundant. However, the BMP280 requires ambient exposure and moving that sensor from enclosure interior to an ambient position removes the enclosure internal temperature measurement.

Instead of removing the HTU21D-F, it could be retained and used to monitor the enclosure environmental status (i.e. temperature/humidity) versus ambient.
