Seeed Studio SenseCAP LoRa Soil Moisture & Temperature Sensor

Seeed Studio SenseCAP LoRa Soil Moisture and Temperature Sensor is designed to interface with the SenseCAP LoRaWAN® Sensor Network. SenseCAP Sensors support the LoRaWAN protocol Class A, with a communication range of up to 10km, depending on the environment. These devices feature a tough, IP66-rated enclosure, suitable for outdoor conditions, and include a high-capacity battery that lasts up to 3 years (uploading data once per hour).
