I'm looking for outdoor lux meter, to open/close my screens.The KaKu ABST-604 is a bit expensive.
Any alternatives?
Maybe some DIY with 433 print and sensor?

ESP8266 with BH1750-lightsensor, feeding info to Domoticz?
Need to make a DIY-housing for the ESP8266 with power supply, but then you are ready.
Not the most accurate, but probably useful enough.

Set1 = RPI-Zero+RFXCom433+S0PCM+Shield for BMP180/DS18B20/RS485+DDS238-1ZNs
Set2 = RPI-3A++RFLinkGTW+ESP8266s+PWS_WS7000
Common = KAKUs+3*PVLogger+PWS_TFA_Nexus
plus series of 'satellites' for dedicated interfacing, monitoring & control.

Re: cheap lux meter for outdoors?
maybe the smartwares SH5-TSY-A, starts from E10.95.
However this unit can't be adjusted on light sensitivity. (unless you cover the sensor with a piece of tape)
