nrf24

My original plan was to use a MSP430 based launchpad (cheap!) instead of an Arduino for the sensor part. I had major troubles getting any data to go trough so decided to first try with identical platforms and libraries. That worked so at least I knew that my NRF modules where ok.

I've been working on this on-and-off (more off than on..) for a couple of years now. The plan is to create a summercottage "automation" system, simply just a bunch of variouse sensors sending information to a base station with a display and perhaps some logging.

I first started with a MSP430 as the sensor board and a Raspberry Pi as the base station, but I never to get NRF24L01 TX/RX to work and forgot all about if again for a while.

I've been planning, for a long time now, to create a monitoring system to our summer cottage. Features would include monitoring of temperature of air and lake water (the cottage is by a small lake) and why not air moisture and barometric presure just for fun.

Also monitoring the sauna temperature in some inteligent way, for example for informing to add more wood and "Sauna is ready!" signal.
