Selecting a location for the combo H/T/S board seems to be a dilemma. For accurate temperature and humidity readings, it needs to be in a cool shady location. On the other hand, the solar sensor needs a clear view of the sun. What solutions have you used successully?
I'm contemplating building a Stephenson shield using plastic planter bottoms - there are plenty of design examples online. To illuminate the solar sensor, I'm thinking of two solutions.
1. Some kind of light pipe penetrating from outside the top of the shield.
2. Removing the solar sensor from the board and wiring it remotely to the top of the shield.
Ideas?
