Luftfeuchtigkeit in den Tropen

Messungen in Amazonien während der JBL Expedition ergaben, dass es dort nicht immer nur heiß und feucht ist. Die Nachtemperatur am Rio Negro, mitten im Herzen Amazoniens, sank auf „frische“ 23 °C, während hingegen die Tagestemperatur auf wirklich warme 30 °C. Somit leben diese Tiere in einem Lebensraum, dessen Temperatur um rund 7 °C schwankt.

The product is from good quality and shows correct temp. And humidity. The minus of this product is that it’s separately what makes it big to fit the terrarium without disturbing. In this times I think that not many people are choosing for analogue types. More popular are digital types and taking less place. I think many people are waiting on a digital temp/ hygrometer from jbl 😉

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.
