Hello fellows!
Two more little steps:
1. I let make a little adapter piece to fit my new water resistant
temperature sensor in the original joint, most likely the easiest way to
get accurate temperature data.
There are the original sensor, the original joint and the new sensor glued into the adapter piece:
2. Since I had to wait for the joint before testing the level sensor, I implemented and tested it with two switches on a breadboard.
Once I got the arduino reading out the switch state it was pretty easy to implement it to the big real sketch. And I had to make my little c program understand the command "lvl". The only difficulty was to find out that I need a 10kOhm resistor to put it to zero. I guess that's what they call a pull down resistor. Otherwise results were inpredictable. But once again, if I only directly headed to arduino.cc and their incredible braintrust... :)
I'll start wiring up everything definitively and be back soon!
