BONUS! Lightning Sensor from ams AG
That’s right, you can detect lightning! The AS3935 Franklin Lightning Sensor™ demo kit is a fully operational handheld sensor designed to estimate the distance to the head of an upcoming storm. The IC detects the presence and approach of potentially hazardous lightning activity from up to 40 km away. It monitors intra-cloud activity and cloud-to-ground flashes to warn and mitigate risk of an oncoming storm. The lightning sensor also identifies and rejects interference signals from common man-made sources such as fluorescent lighting, motors, and microwave ovens. Detected lighting events are shown on the LCD as well as alerted with an audio signal.
