ShillehTek BME280 Pre-Soldered Atmospheric Temperature, Pressure, and Humidity Sensor

Easy to use good product

I have to say its been a game changer As someone whos still refining my soldering skills the convenience of a presoldered component has saved me a lot of time and frustration Definitely recommend

This product is perfect especially all of the guides from ShillehTek online

Required a bit of searching up because the listing did not show any details for how to wire up the module But once I found the correct pins I2C worked with no issues I used the Arduino framework with the Adafruit BME280 library and had no issues My unit had an I2C address of 0x76 which is the default address for this particular sensor from my search results

Arrived quickly and was Packed well I didnt make exact measurements but the values feel correct Documentation could be clearer on which I2C address is configured The default on the recommended Adafruit libraries needed to be overwritten

It worked great with no issues

This BME280 Module is great for any project where Temperature Humidity Atmospheric Pressure is required I2C makes it easy to connect with other hardware I am using this with a Raspberry Pi Pico W The Weather Parameters are logged every 12 Hours and sent over WIFI to a data server

Seems to be a decent sensor I hope its an actual Bosch unit and not a knockoff but I have my doubtsOne thing I did find the board I got was set to be the second sensor on a wire It works fine as an onlysensor but you need to specify the second address because thats what this device is set toLike this in Arduino idemySensorBsetI2CAddress0x76 Connect to a second sensorRun the Example2I2CAddress program out of the Sparkfun library

These Bosch environmental sensors are great pretty accurate and easy to use Its within half a degree of a calibrated thermometer and the pressure readings jive with other barometers The humidity is a bit less accurate or at least disagrees by 23 with a professional hygrometer but thats not a very big deal and anyway it can be accounted for in software Oversampling and IIR filtering support easy to use with the Adafruit python library or any of several others Presoldered for nofuss prototyping or assembly Im using this with a Pico W microcontroller running ESPHome which has full support for the BME280 it sends the data to Home Assistant Works great

Excellent device

The sensors have been working great for several months now

A nice and very small sensor that can work with just about any microcontroller through I2C or SPI I usually use ESP32 microprocessors but they should work fine with anything that supports one of those interfacesI gave mine a bit of a test run on a breadboard and it worked fine but I havent figured out exactly what final project Ill put it into yet Would be a good altimeter for a drone The sensor itself is very tiny and light so it can be squeezed into just about any size project

This is a great way to augment your Pico In my testing it was a little more accurate or at least closer to the other temperature devices I have than my Picos in built temperature sensor And all the other sensors on top of that are a great added bonus

Used this instead of a previously used DHT11 sensor Sensor worked great in this project In my project the BME280 collects temperature and humidity and then it returns this info an STM32 nucleo that then puts the info onto an I2C LCD and also sends the info to a thingspeak server via an ESP8266 ESP01 development kit Will be buying more of these sensors in the future thanks to incredible resolution and speed compared to other available sensors

The one pictured works but the other one I received has the pins soldered to the opposite side of the board and didnt give me any readings at all

I have plenty experience with I2C and building machines I got this to prototype the SMD device before going into PCB design I think I got a bad batch It is not being detected by i2c I tried numerous different tactics to make it workAfter testing connections I found a short between SCK and GNDEdit I think I get a faulty board After getting a replacement everything is working fine

The media could not be loaded Unlike the DHT20 I have been trying to get to work because of conflicting libraries the BME280 interfaced easily and the code worked well I found for my device the 0x76 was the address for it I am only using it as a test for now So 1C3 humidity is ok but I personally need tighter temperature accuracyOverall a decent sensor and hood for learning arduino and I2C with But for a few dollars more you can get an even tighter accuracy SHT45 so to each their own

This is a very compact board perfect for a small project that is tight on space It comes in an ESD bag with no foam padding This could easily get broken during shipment Mine was fine which is probably a product of it being small in a padded Amazon envelope The soldering looks fine with no visible defects Overall it is a decent quality BME280 board that is presoldered as advertised This would be good for a small weather station

This tiny little board basically breaks out the most common weather sensors used It measures temperature humidity and atmospheric pressure and can also be used to measure altitude The purple breakout board has clean solder joints clear and readable silk screening and convenient header pins for accessing the sensors pin outs Its a nice little all in one module for making your own weather station or building other devices I did not spot any construction issues with mine

I hooked this BME280 to an ESP8266 and use it as a sensor in Home Assistant to monitor the temperature and humidity of my home Set the polling to be every 60 seconds your results will be very accurate If you check the temperature too frequently it can heat up the BME280 and mess with your resultsThis BME280 has presoldered pin headers which makes it really easy to work with It uses i2C to communicate and worked perfectly in ESPHome

Not a lot to sayWhen I got it the pins looked fine even though it was in a plastic mailer with no real padding Amazon really needs to get it together with throwing things in bags without thinking about how they would shipHowever It is currently is lost to the void As It is small as it connects to a Pi I sat it down in its little grey static bag next to the keyboard came back later lost to the void Ive dug everywhere it could be and its nowhere to be found Perhaps the cat found it to be a toy and its under something but if it is I have no idea where Oh well I hate reviewing it without actually using it but it was as exactly described User headgap error on my partPros Simple design well solderedCons Amazon Shipping could potentially damage this

This is a cool little breakout board reasonably accurate and great for my prototyping projects Good quality soldering and programming I would have liked to seen it more securely packaged but thankfully it arrived undamaged Great value

I was unable to get an Arduino UNO to talk to this I tried multiple UNOs and multiple BME280 libraries I ran an I2C scanning sketch and it did not find the device but the sketch did found other I2C devices when I hooked them up in the same way as the BME280 I must have got a bad one

This is my first altimeter accessory for a microcontroller and Im actually really impressed This tiny little card is about the size of my thumbnail and gives a surprisingly accurate set of temperature pressure humidity and altitude readings It just estimates your altitude based upon the value of those parameters relative to sea level on a standard dayI set it up with an Arduino Uno 4 wires and the Adafruit library for BME280 using some sample code I found online It nailed my altitude to within about 10 meters of my GPS using WGS84 model When I breath on the sensor I can watch the humidity change from 30 to 60 in real time Im amazed at the amount of technology that can be packaged in a tiny sensor card for under 10 I think a weather station project is in my near futureFinal Rating 5 stars

The item arrived with soldered header as expected This was my first use of this kind of sensor so I followed these steps to install the open source librariesStart the Arduino IDE and go to Sketch Include Library Manage Libraries The Library Manager will openSearch for adafruit bme280 and install that library and its dependencies if promptedExamples for how to use the library are easy to find online and there are no unexpected gotchas to watch out for

The sensor will be great for my arduino project and its convenient that its presoldered The solder is well done better than I could do

I got this for a project using an Arduino I have wanted to make and it appears it will work very well for that While it comes with no documentation the video tutorial in the listing got me up and running quickly Obviously you want to be a little comfortable with whichever device youll be using this with as by itself it doesnt do anything useful

Review of BME280 33V PreSoldered High Precision AltimeterThis arrived in just an antistatic bag inside a regular Amazon delivery mailer bag The pins were a bit bent but luckily it still worked Honestly for the price and given how delicate this module is I would have expected at least some bubblewrap padding or even a small box Im knocking off 1 star for that reasonThat aside the module is handy for starter projects and the board and headers make it super easy to start with The I2C interface is really easy to communicate with using the open source libraries

I have a more than a few BME280 breakout boards For the most part theyre all fairly accurate as the folks who sell them dont really mess with the firmware theyre typically programmed with their cal factors at the factoryOccasionally youll get one that has to be baked to get the device reset and new calibration done If you get one of those its actually easier to just toss it and get a new oneThis one is within a 3 degF 5 absolute in RH and 01 inHg of my other ones so Im Ok with that Im not doing mission critical measurements on temphumiditypressure with these

Well this is a pretty easy one to like The price is right and it works as it should It is truly a BME and not a BMP A quick test run of the example code from Seeedstudios barometer library and its doing what it shouldI see no problems here so far Assuming it doesnt just up and die this is a good deal

The SHILLEHTEK BME280 board does work I followed the instructions and set VCC to 33 volts I wired it as shown in the tutorial The libraries are configured correctly in the Arduino IDE Since this is a 6 pin BME280 board it uses SPI for identification of the board I had to switch the code to use software SPI and got it working For some reason hardware SPI does not workThe altitude is incorrect but the product description says that it is an approximate I will be testing this BME280 on a custom built drone to measure temperature pressure and humidity at different locations I will compare the altitude displayed with the altitude from other sensors on board

Ive got this connected via I2C to an ESP32 microcontroller which operates on 33V Using I2C only requires two wires SDA and SCL to be connected Im able to get temperature pressure and humidity readings from it and the values seem to be accurate The temperature readings take a few seconds to change at least thats what I observed when I placed my finger on it and then removed it Humidity sensor works quickly based on how quickly it changed when I exhaled onto the sensorConvenient package with presoldered pins Upon searching for competing BME280 sensors seems like there are a good number of cheap falsely advertised units that are actually BMP280 sensors The BME280 sensor has a humidity sensor whereas the BMP280 does not so based on the fact that Im able to read humidity I can say that this is actually a BME280

This sensor module is very easy to use it comes in a antistatic bag there is no manual pinout specification whatsoever But the pinout is silkscreen printed on the PCB as well as available on the product descriptionThe module is also presoldered making it very suitable for prototyping or debug on a breadboard But again note that it doesnt come with any additional jumper wiresThe i2c address detected is 0x76 it appears to be the standard oneIt will make life much easier by downloading and installing the BME280 library file then data pulled can be automatically transformed to useful information in the form of temperature pressure and humidityIn fact while it is actively being measured if the module is moved up and down the relative altitude changed can be observed from the change of the pressureThe last useful feature observed is that this breakout board has the additional CSB and SDO pins for multiplexing other BME280 sensors they are not necessary and can be omitted if single sensor is in use onlyOverall the sensor works as expected I cant tell the accuracy but it appears to work accordingly with the change of height during measured The footprint of the PCBmodule is considerably small as well it would be easily integrated into DIY projects

Simple I2C bus connectionShowed up in my Tasmota device web interface without any configuration necessarySimple OEM packaging dont expect any docsGoogle BME280 for more info

Professional solder quality works as expected Would buy again

Sadly I havent had much opportunity yet to playwork with the components It looks great Things arrived before the estimated arrival date About the only way I can think of that the rating shouldnt rise above 4stars is if the sensor board is somehow defective

pre soldered just add your dupont wires and connect to you micro controller and off ya go

Just what I needed connects perfectly with my weather station for my arduino

Works exactly as expected Great value for the price
