Based on the work of Open Green Energy. https://www.instructables.com/id/Solar-Powered-WiFi-Weather-Station-V20/ Authors of the base code: Keith Hungerford and Debasish Dutta - Excellent work, gentlemen!
Running Blynk legacy will drain your battery and your device will stop working. Please update to new Blynk (free version works very well).
- Create new Blynk account (https://blynk.io) Top right.
- Add new template (see example below)
- Add new device using your new template
- Load Blynk App for your mobile device
- Add widgets as before
- done!
Major changes:
- simplified, restructured code (used Adafruit libraries for BME280 instead, sorry for this Keith)
- added relative pressure, dewpoint, dewpoint spread and heatindex calculations
- allow Blynk (** UPDATED, PLEASE SEE CHANGES **), ThingSpeak and MQTT data transmission
- redesigned box (simplified printing, less plastic usage, full snap-in)
- available languages in Version V2.3 (a big thank you to the contributors!)
- English
- German
- Italian (Chak10)
- Polish (TomaszDom)
- Romanian (zangaby)
- French (Ludestru)
- Spanish (Fedecatt)
- Turkish (Mert Sarac)
- Dutch (Rickthefrog)
- Norwegian (solbero)

- added multi language feature
Changes in V2.31

- fixed some minor things

Changes in V2.31 (MQTT version)
- allows to publish data to MQTT broker (alternative .ino file)
Changes in V2.32
- Battery monitoring and going to hibernate if battery low (battery protection)
- Warning text will be shown instead of Zambretti prediction if batt low
Changes in V2.33
- Corrected bug in the winter/summer adjustment for the Zambretti forecast
Changes in V2.34
- added August-Roche-Magnus approximation to automatically adjust humidity with temperature corrections
- Code cleanup
Changes in V2.35
- corrected TingSpeak communication changes (needs now Channel ID and KEY)
- moved V2.35 into history folder - will not maintained by me anymore (pull requests for this version are still welcome)
Changes in V2.4

- reformatted data into json
- decide in settings24.h if you want MQTT or not
- non-blocking MQTT connector if broker is not available
- added one-wire 18d20 temperature sensor (better temperature buffering in sunshine - more lazy) to P4 solder pull-up resistor 4.7 kOhm between signal and V+
- minor bug fixes
- changed translation to summer and winter messages (unfortunately, only german and english translation for this version available) If you still need different languages please translate into your language in translation24.h
