Welcome to EnviroDIY, a community for do-it-yourself environmental science and monitoring. EnviroDIY is part of WikiWatershed, an initiative of Stroud Water Research Center designed to help people advance knowledge and stewardship of fresh water. James,
Did you ever resolve this? I’m having the same issue.
Thanks!

We have two versions of custom shields that the sensors are connected to that electrically isolate the circuits. The first shield connects to the power, ground, and I2C SDA and SCL pins on the Mayfly. The second shield connects to the switched power, ground, and I2C SDA and SCL pins.
I found that on the board that uses our first version of the shield, which is what I have out in the field, the “Power” LED was staying on so I was able to switch that off with the LED Control. I’ll replace the battery and see how it does now.
The second version of our shield keeps the “Switched Power Out” LED on at all times.
Do you think these LEDs would cause that much of a power draw overnight, or could it be the shields? I don’t have documentation for the shields at the moment.
Sorry about that, I just made the repo public if you have time to look at the sketch. We are using the EnviroDIY SIM7080G LTE Bee and a v1.0 board.
I appreciate your insight and help!
Hi Shannon,
We’re working with Atlas Scientific sensors. Our final set up will include three sensors – pH/temperature, dissolved oxygen, and conductivity.
I was able to add it without issue. Thanks so much, @heather and @srgdamiano!
Thanks for your help, Shannon! I appreciate it.
