WeatherSense 9001® Arduino-ESP32 Weather Station – IDE and Library Setup – (Part 3 of 5)
Getting the Arduino ESP32 Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and all the necessary libraries set up successfully for this project can be a challenge. The main issue relates to compatibility of the library versions with each other as well as with the CrowPanel hardware. Simply changing the version of one dependent library to a slightly higher…

WeatherSense 9001® Arduino-ESP32 Weather Station – Project Overview – (Part 1 of 5)
The WeatherSense 9001® is a home-brew weather station built on the Elecrow CrowPanel HMI platform. The CrowPanel features a 7.0″ capacitive touch display with a built-in ESP32-S3 module. The project code, written in the Arduino-ESP32 IDE, reads and displays temperature, humidity and barometric pressure data from multiple SensorPush environmental sensors via the API. Barometric pressure…

Supplemental Info for Constant Current LED Lighting Circuit
This post contains supplemental information for my YouTube video titled:“LED Lighting in MTH O-Gauge Passenger Car” Schematic: Note that I am using one 47-ohm resistor (R1) across the Vout and Adj pins on my LM317T voltage regulator so it acts as a “current” regulator. This is for my LED strip which has 150 ohm resistors…
