I'm just about to build my own external temperature and humidity sensor, using a Sensiron SHT45 sensor with integrated PTFE filter.

I've had Tuya and Aqara sensors outside, undercover and out of direct rain for the past 3 years, and every one lasts about a year before the humidity sensor gets stuck at the maximum reading. Even bringing it indoors doesn't get it working again. I'm hoping the built-in heater on the SHT45 will help when we're sat in sea mist or sea fog and keep the sensor working for longer.
