Does it actually work well to detect whether it is raining or not? I mean, in theory, I guess it can detect the presence of water on its surface, but real rain does not stay long in that big blob shape like that. If it detects any amount of water, what if the rain stops? The surface would still be wet for quite some time. Can it distinguish the state of raining and being wet after the rain has stopped? Ideally, shouldn't the sensor also detect some sort of impact from the raindrops and the presence of water at the same time to intelligently determine whether it is raining or not?
a rain sensor, that works like this, is exactly what i am looking for! do you know of a product i can buy? i dont care about tempature, wind, humidity - only rain when it starts. thanks
water and voltage is inversely proportional.... are you sure about this ? were actually reading the resistance resistance . So shouldn't it be if more water is applied then less is the resistance and vice versa . So if water is decrease's resistance then shouldn't the water directly be proportional to voltage ?

You can use your creativity and some algorithm on that
@@miliohm good answer miliohm (Y) the function could work with relevant changes over time
what is the type of traces on the sensor pad ? are stainless steel or copper ?
I think that's copper
@@miliohmBut i think copper will be oxidizeded with water and will be corroded.
@@wadib3eed7 ya, but some references said that.
The item description says, it's nickel-plated. So there shouldn't be any problems with corrosion.

There are many. Just google rain sensor
Boss how to write the rain sensor for uno using computer. Tq
How to convert those values to millimeter
It just rain detector, not rainfall/rain gauge sensor.
@@miliohm then how should we know it's values in mm
@@susmithat881 you should use rain gauge instead
@@miliohm thanks a lot sir
@@miliohm ok sir
how can we put a timer on the alarm? so that it would just alarm for 30 seconds?
you can use millis() for example. The logic would be
If (millis()-timeStart>=30000){ alarm ON} else { alarm OFF}
@@miliohm thanks man

Can it be connected by wifi to notify me on my cell phone if it’s raining?
sure, you need wifi module like nodemcu
@@miliohm thank you. Any video or link?
Can you put a button to turn off the alarm once it is raining?

who is walking using banana leaves ?
not sure, just random human being :D
thank you a lot i works !...
