Sunlight Sensor

$99

A solar-powered outdoor light sensor that reads ambient sunlight and drives supplementary grow lights and shade automations — pair with the app so Sunny turns lights on at dusk and shades in at midday without you having to touch anything.

Automates supplementary light.

The Sunlight Sensor is a weather-sealed outdoor sensor that measures ambient sunlight in real time and hands the reading to your greenhouse’s smart controls. Pair it with the mobile app and Sunny will use the live light level to run supplementary grow lights only when they’re actually needed, close shade covers when the sun spikes, and log daily light integral (DLI) for every crop zone.

  • Solar-powered — built-in solar panel keeps the sensor running with no batteries to change and no wiring to trench.
  • Weather-sealed — IP65 housing for year-round outdoor mounting on a purlin, ridge, or exterior wall.
  • Wireless — talks to the app over Zigbee / Wi-Fi through the smart hub, no separate gateway required.
  • Ties to every light-driven automation — grow lights, shade cloth, automated vents, and Sunny’s per-plant DLI targets.
