Product description: BleBox luxSensor - WiFi light intensity sensor - Android / iOS application
BleBox luxSensor is an intelligent WiFi light intensity sensor that measures light levels in the range of 0 lux to 50,000 lux with a high resolution of 0.1 lux in the range of 0 lux to 10 lux. It can operate without Internet access, connecting directly to the device or via a WiFi router, as well as in the BleBox cloud, which allows remote control. Thanks to automation support, it can control other BleBox devices , e.g. lights, blinds or awnings, adapting them to the current lighting conditions. The sensor also offers push notifications to your smartphone , e.g. when a set brightness threshold is exceeded. The IP65 housing makes the luxSensor suitable for both indoor and outdoor use . It is powered by USB type A (5 V) or an external power supply from 5 V to 24 V DC. Easy installation with double-sided tape or screws makes it an ideal solution for a smart home.
