I've had another SHT11 fail. Got two months out of the last one. Not sure why these have become so unreliable. Maybe it's an issue with Chinese manufacturers? I used to get a least a year out of them.
Funny thing, I've got two previously failed SHT11 now working in another project. One of them gives a bad humidity reading occasionally but has been reading good for weeks. This behavior starts me wondering if the WeatherDuino code is maybe pushing them too hard or something.
Anyhow, I've ordered some SHT31's but my weather station is offline till they arrive in about 3 weeks. Fingers X'ed these last longer.
Can someone remind me which sensor the Davis stations uses? I thought it was the SHT 11? Whatever they are they seem to last quite a while.
