Nope, that doesn't work, it's an ongoing problem on the RPi forums.
A few tricks have been found but still fail for others, basically powering externally. Just one of the flaw of a PiZero.

Re: Initial thoughts
:-) Anyway, I'm on gitub but not with this forum name :-) I certainly think the plugin needs some work, I know a few of is use SDS010 as it's the main PM sensor used in Air Monitoring with DIY systems, mainly due to following real (government) sensors more closely. Though PMS are often used in off t...

Re: Initial thoughts
Just noticed in the Particle Sensors you listed, you have MCU680, that a BME680 with a microcontroller (STM32) on it to provide a serial output with iirc bsec's but it's limited and not sure it can be updated or changed to eVOC. Else it's just an i2c BME680, it is not a Particle Sensor, so confused ...

Re: Initial thoughts
A few quick ones.. (on my mobile so bloody hard to reply easily) BME680 is not just humidity, is T/P/H and VOC (or eVOC, eCO2 for indoor use). It's the next step up from a BME280. gpsd is on all Linux systems, I don't care about Arduino environment, I doubt they'll have gpsd as they don't have the a...

Today I installed this on my PiZero that runs my own Python3 software to do just sensor logging and sending via MQTT. I use ESPEasy on erm ESP's so thought I'd give this a go. Up to date PiOS32 install. Went through the motions and everything started fine :-) Excellent start. Looks nice and familiar...

Re: BME 680 sensor
That FUSION is the BSEC, I use it on the RaspberryPi myself. It uses their own calibration and you can also supply a temperature offset to it. I've not used it on ESP8266 but I think people had trouble when they tried, ESP32 I think was easier. (as a note, 8 bit and 16 bit setups are not recommended...

Re: BME280 humidity bug
Do it in the rules, that's a obvious answer I hadn't thought of
, excellent.
In the new year I'll get an iso date/time/offset format idea up. I'll see what we use in some code we use for something else.
It's normally implemented the same as the main web rfc time format.

Re: sds011 problem with sleep timer
for the record using rules/trigger event and publishing on the PM10 reading* that way you don't need to worry about the interval timer. It may be possible to uise the SDS itself to bring the device out of deep sleep. When the SDS comes out of its sleep, the 3V3(laser) and 5V line(fan) are turned on ...

Re: BME280 humidity bug
*unless the Bosch forum is refering to the bme280 api's ability to use the internal registers to self compensate? https://github.com/BoschSensortec/BME280_driver/blob/master/bme280.c Perhaps some sanity checking needs adding (like in the Bosch API) for spec range on temp, and humidity_max etc. Thoug...

Re: BME280 humidity bug
I understand how it works, hence what I alter temperature, but the current 'must also do humidity' forces the problem of also giving readings of >100% humidity. (That's an impossible situation, so a bug). I want to disable the humidity correction part (as that is relative anyway) only. According to ...

BME280 humidity bug
Help, I updated my ESP to this months (Nov or December version) and my BME280 is reporting wrong Humidity, for a start it's now returning >100% Looking at the logs, it's not the sensor but some humidity correction based on temperature. Now I have set a temperature correction (as is normal) but this ...
