-Note: the difference between v1.2 of the PCB and v1.3 is that the later has a ground plane to help with RF signal strength. Also note that the orientation of the electrolytic capacitor is also changed on the v1.3 board.\\+Note: the difference between v1.2 of the PCB and v1.3 is that the latter has a ground plane to help with RF signal strength.

 || The enclosure is disassembled by removing the four silver screws (some models use standard crosspoint screws - others use 1.8mm triangular slotted 'security' type screws) and has a battery compartment for 3 x AA cells. Further, there is a built in PIR detector and a LED. The space at the top of the unit is also perfect for mounting an LDR. We pop a DS18B20 inside so that the room temperature can be read. Low battery warning is supported. Of course, we remove the air freshener canister to allow space for our HAHnode PCB ... so the unit no longer serves its typical purpose (no bad thing either!). Note that the batteries shown are better replaced by really [[http://www.patrolstore.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/600x/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/d/u/duracell_procell_aa.jpg|good]] ones.|| {{6783270152_9befb04e7a_b.jpg?320}} || || The enclosure is disassembled by removing the four silver screws (some models use standard crosspoint screws - others use 1.8mm triangular slotted 'security' type screws) and has a battery compartment for 3 x AA cells.
