Male. Age 8; ate a Ritz biscuit in two bites. Made to stand in the corridor because I was being a “little pig.”
I was unaware that there were more than two bites in a ritz -

Mouser has the Adafruit PMS5003 in stock right now.
https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Adafruit/3686?qs=rrS6PyfT74ekfI0ilCENKA%3D%3D
Nice! If you're willing to pay $40 for it! It's like $17 on aliexpress if you can wait 3 weeks. $30 on amazon for a little longer. -

Do you have photos of the ESP8266 + PMS5003 setup? I've been looking into putting an air quality sensor together myself.
It’s more or less plug and play if you’re using esphome! Power, ground, TX/RX pins, not much to it!
-
Yeah! I got it last year but never actually hooked it up. Seemed like an appropriate time.

Can you actually smell the smoke in your apartment at those levels? Or is it still “invisible”?
Definitely a campfire smell, but at this point I could just be desensitized to it also. I have a feeling that it's pretty strong compared to clean air, I just don't have clean air to compare it to right now. -

Yeah same. Like, why bother if there is nothing we can do about it?
It's reassuring to know that there's a real reason I've been unable to sleep well and having trouble concentrating. -

This is crazy!! It’s up to 626 AQI outside and 280 inside! https://twitter.com/aaronpk/status/1304857836267085824
I'm basically sleeping next to a campfire -
Might sleep with this N95 mask on

@aaronpk you are living in California near the fires?
I'm in Portland Oregon, we have our own fires here 🔥 -

Yikes! Is https://www.airnow.gov an accurate indicator of air quality? If so, ours is pretty good!
I just want to see the sky again 😭 -

Wow. That’s crazy... is the sky still red?
I haven't seen blue sky in days -

Yikes. Seems like you've found a project at least. How you holding up otherwise?
Fine, just not happy about spending 48+ hours in this air, kinda worried about the possible side effects of this a few weeks from now -
I added a link to it in the post! It's a PMS5003 sensor

@aaronpk What do you use for inside quality readings? I’ve seen a few reports from indoors. I have to assume the quality inside my house is no better than others, but I’d like to know for sure. (I am running the fan of my furnace which is equipped with an American Standard Accuclean integrates electrostatic filter. M)
I had a PMS5003 sensor that I hooked up to my home automation platform. It's the sensor used in many retail AQI meters -
That implies I have an air filter lying around. Believe me if there was one anywhere nearby in this town I would have done this already.

Uh, not super sealed. 172 AQI is still utter shite. You need a filter, man.
Well the hallway is like 240 so... -

That’s cool. And you need better filters. How are you scrubbing internal air? Now I’m really curious what the AQI is in my house and studio!!
I need filters at all! Just running the AC right now, but the exterior windows are super sealed and the apartment hallway air is filtered

@aaronpk Which sensor are you using? I'm looking to do something similar before winter (air quality gets hazardous around New Year where I live).
It's a PMS5003 sensor attached to esphome. They're mostly out of stock but you can find them on Amazon or Aliexpress if you're willing to wait a while for them to arrive. -

Which sensor and hub do you have? I've been wanting a wearable sensor that also measures tvoc, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide
It's the PMS5003 sensor that's in a whole bunch of devices. It'd be a real challenge to make it wearable but that sounds like fun!
