Parts You'll Need

This project is sourced from another site, not written by us — this list is our best match of their components against what we stock, not a verified bill of materials. Always check the original blog (linked above) for the actual parts list before buying.

This list includes a generic resistor set as a placeholder — it is not matched to the exact value or part number this circuit needs. The correct one is specified on the original source page linked above; check it before buying.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, a 3.7V lithium battery can power the circuit, but you should ensure the voltage is adequate for all connected sensors, especially the MQ-2 gas sensor heater element which often requires a stable 5V supply for accurate readings.
The Blynk App provides a graphical user interface (GUI) on your smartphone, enabling remote monitoring of temperature, humidity, and gas levels, as well as remote control capabilities from anywhere with an internet connection.
You use the WiFiS3 library included in the Arduino IDE software to configure your Wi-Fi credentials (SSID and password) directly within your sketch so the board can authenticate and connect to your router.
