Hi, i'm controling vpd in my room, but for now i add manually the temperature differencial between plant and air.
I would like to improve and add a IR sensor to my setup,
the thing is, basics sensors seem to have low precision.
Do you guys go with a +-2°C sensors, or do you upgrade to better ones? any recommendation on a specific one ?
Im looking for one easy to use with ESPHome and Home Assistant.
cheers
