SparkFun micro:climate kit for micro:bit – v3.0 SparkFun Electronics

The SparkFun micro:climate kit is a full weather station kit that is built on top of the weather:bit carrier board. Unlike previous weather kits we’ve carried, this micro:climate kit is Qwiic enabled and includes our tried-and-true Weather Meters and Soil Moisture Sensor, so whether you’re an agriculturalist, a professional meteorologist or a hobbyist, you will be able to build a high-grade weather station powered by the micro:bit. You can even talk via wireless communication between two micro:bits with this kit to be able to monitor the weather without being exposed to it!

Inside each micro:climate kit you will find all the components required to build your micro:bit into a go-to weather sensor; the only parts not included are two AAA batteries, microSD card, and the micro:bit itself. Simply add your own micro:bit to the provided weather:bit, assemble the kit, and you will be ready to start sensing. The SparkFun micro:climate kit is a great way to get your feet wet in high-grade sensors — just not literally; that’s the weather:bit’s job!

The kit does not require any soldering and is recommended for anyone curious about weather-sensing technology or the micro:bit platform.

The micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that lets you get creative with digital technology. Between the micro:bit and our shield-like bit boards you can do almost anything while coding, customizing and controlling your micro:bit from almost anywhere! You can use your micro:bit for all sorts of unique creations, from robots to musical instruments and more. At half the size of a credit card, this versatile board has vast potential!

Note: The SparkFun micro:climate kit does NOT include a micro:bit board. The micro:bit board will need to be purchased separately. You will also need a microSD card when logging data and AAA batteries to power remotely.
