Rochester Gauge R3D adapter

Rochester Gauge R3D adapter

Description

I made this to get more repeatable placement of the hall effect sensor for reading the gauge. Here are some resources related to it's use: https://www.reddit.com/r/homeautomation/comments/qli8yj/remote_propane_tank_monitor_rochester_r3d_gauge/ https://www.reddit.com/user/thePolarblair/comments/que4p0/ky024_hall_effect_sensor_in_pull_out_tab_of/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share I was using a similar setup as was being used in these guides, but that hall effect sensor is not temperature calibrated and by it's analog nature not super repeatable. I am planning on using a DRV5057A2QLPG hall effect sensor, as it is temperature compensated and outputs PWM so there is less calibrating to wire resistance. ESPHome has a PWM in sensor I am hoping to use. My printer kept bridging between the isolators for the legs of the sensors, but a little work with a knife cleaned it up and worked like a charm!
