Soil Moisture Sensor (Arduino Compatible)

Hello,
I have bought this sensor in order to measure the humidity of compost. I would like to know on what temperature range the sensor is working. Indeed, in a composting reaction the temperature can increase till 70°C.
Thanks a lot,
Hélène.

Soil Moisture Sensor may be corroded when you use it in compost, but the range of its commercial temperature is 0 to 65 centigrade degree. So maybe you can use it to test the humidity of the compost under 70 degree. :)
I hope my answer can do a little help for you. ;)
