Analog sensor is on the "to do" list (SPI interface) and the first application will be voltage and

You are right. The prototype seems to work fine and now the challenge is waterproofing. It seems that the only part that needs to be in contact with air is the 4 little legs of each device. Maybe face down under a little roof is enough, we will see...
