looking for hardware sensors

[Ennis Ibarra]

We've bought TemPageR from Avtech temperature sensors but they also have humidity an others, very inexpensive, they will try to sell you support an a console and what have you, you have that anyways for a year. The nice thing about these is that it has a RJ45 connection, don't know if they have wireless, but even a better thing is that they have a telnet "backdoor" which once you connect yourself into, throws the reading of the current sensors. We scripted an expect script to catch the telnet output and have that integrated with Nagios, works beautifully. 

Check it out, and if interested shoot me a Request for the scripts and I'll be glad to share them. Other options? Sure SMNP based, but quite expensive.

Subject: [Nagios-users] looking for hardware sensors 

I'm looking for some cheap hardware usb/wifi sensors that are supported 
in Linux to provide: 
- temperature 
- humidity 
- water/flood 
- smoke/fire 

Some all-in-one devices would work as well as long as they aren't too 
expensive. Otherwise I will have to run them off something like guruplug. 

Here is some for temperature, humidity and water sensors (~$200):

I haven't found anything for smoke/fire. 

Does anyone know of any that work in Linux?
