Reading an MTEC-02A soil moisture sensor with a Wemos D1 Mini

Posted on January 2, 2026January 7, 2026 by meteodrenthe

My personal weather station is located in a small township in the North of the Netherlands.

This blog records updates to my setup, development of components, weather reports and anything related.

Real time data generated by the weather station can be found on meteodrenthe.nl.
