Getting Started
Adafruit Playground is a wonderful and safe place to share your interests with Adafruit's vibrant community of makers and doers. Have a cool project you are working on? Have a bit of code that you think others will find useful? Want to show off your electronics workbench? You have come to the right place.
The goal of Adafruit Playground is to make it as simple as possible to share your work. On the Adafruit Playground users can create Notes. A note is a single-page space where you can document your topic using Adafruit's easy-to-use editor. Notes are like Guides on the Adafruit Learning System but guides are high-fidelity content curated and maintained by Adafuit. Notes are whatever you want them to be. Have fun and be kind.

Testing an eTape with my sump pump Now that the awesome eTape liquid level sensor works with Adafruit IO No-Code devices, I figured this would be a good way to add a really accurate sensor to my house's sump pump to track the water level in the tank. I used a simple hose clamp to go through the 3d print and hold it in place on the main sump pump pipe. Then I can slide the device down so it rests on the bottom of the sump pump tank.
Next step is to connect this up and do some tests with Adafruit IO. I think I am going to use the FunHouse board with this.

About Jeff I’ve been a software developer ever since I first started typing in program listings on an 80s home computer.
I’ve been a contributor to Free and Open Source software for over 20 years. See my github profile for my contributions and original software.
I'm proud to be working with Adafruit, mainly on CircuitPython, and helping enable people learn and create fun projects with whatever environment works best for them.
