No way to let yours drain continuously?

I remember see your build and the code in your thread, thank you for posting that.

If you're gonna use my code, bear in mind that I used a Teensy 2, which has different pin assignments than an Arduino. As I recall I spelled them out in the header of the code.

It should be noted that in my code, I included a routine that smoothed extraneous data so that your compressor doesn't kick on and off due to spurious data.

You would be making a major contribution to the civilized world if your code also controlled an LCD display.

Best,
