How Hot is it? 4 Channel Temp Logger

I thought it would be great to get some real-world temperatures feeding into my system to:
  • Control HVAC
  • Curtains/Blinds
  • Display on Squeezebox / Touchscreen

The idea is to have 1-wire sensors setup in the main living areas, one outside and another in the equipment encloser.

I saw there was an xpl application to get a Quasar 3145 Temprature board onto an xpl network.

Did a bit of searching and found a local supplier that sold them here, both in kit form and assembled (Under a different brand - but looked identical). Being a little lazy - I went the assembled route :)

Arrive a couple of days ago, plugged it in, installed the app - and presto - worked a treat.

Total cost: a little over $100. (4 sensors)
