Hi,
Let’s say I want to measure temperature with Ruuvitag from a plant pot, located 5 meters from wall (and windows). Indoor, behind the windows I have receiver, that will collect the data.
What is the best pose for Ruuvitag inside the plant pot. I mean does it send data
360 degrees in all positions?
Hi,
I placed one of my ruuvi-tags under soil, approximately 5 cm below the surface. I placed in between two terra-cotta plates, tag top facing upwards. I can read the bluetooth data from inside the house (brick facade). The position is not visible from inside the house - I guess the radio signal bounces around before it is received by my iPhone. I think from what you describe it will work fine.
Signal strength is strongest directly up from the top cover.
Be advised that some efforts relating to soil measurements resulted in tags “breathing” in moisture which eventually condensed inside the enclosure.
