I'm struggling to see the benefit of your product. Apart from the outdoor element. You can buy a 4 in 1 air monitor from Amazon for half the price (Co2, PM, Temp and Humidity) i.e. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Indoor-Air-Quality-Monitor-Multifunctional/dp/B0C7D2PPCY https://www.amazon.co.uk/Indoor-Air-Quality-Monitor-Multifun...
There are others with 6 in 1 with app control for less.
Aren't there other sensors that would be more useful providing better insights on pollutants and health you could provide at a premium that these cheaper monitors can't.

- ted_dunning 3y agoThe sensor quality and the open source nature make a lot of difference there.
