    Achim from AirGradient here. Great to see this posted.

    When we first heard about this new sensor, we were quite pessimistic about its performance but have been pleasantly surprised by its performance. It is something we consider now for potential future products.

    We are also currently testing the energy consumption because we believe the fanless design should make it quite efficient; but not sure how much the laser needs. So we will keep the article updated as learn more.

    Awesome. The more accessible air quality sensors are, the better. They're currently quite expensive, which is a damn shame.

    Fanless, compact, and potentially energy efficient as well?

    This is a massive leap forward in innovation!

    Especially when looking at the curve following the much higher quality sensor so closely.

    With a larger dataset, I'm sure you could tune the results in software to report very accurate data.
