ELECFREAKS PlanetX Soil Moisture Sensor

The ELECFREAKS PlanetX Soil Moisture Sensor is designed to measure moisture levels in soil and potting compost within the PlanetX ecosystem. The sensor detects changes in surrounding soil conditions and provides an analog output value that can be used to determine whether soil is dry or moist. This makes it suitable for plant monitoring, irrigation experiments and educational micro:bit projects.

The RJ11 4P4C connector enables quick installation with compatible PlanetX controllers without soldering. Its analog output supports continuous measurements, making the module useful for data logging, STEM education and automation projects that require soil condition monitoring. The PlanetX range also includes additional sensors and expansion modules for building larger monitoring and measurement systems.
