I stated for te record and for the interest of others doing outside wifi 
coupled IOT shit that rain wind and possibly cars made a difference.

Someone else remarked that so did fire trucks.

The downside of the new oil monitor is that is is so accurate - to 
within a litre it seems - that I can visibly see how much a shower or 
washing the dishes costs me, and a cold night is very expensive. :-)
LOL.

Now off to write the software that will look at it for me and warn me of

So I can get on with the next project.
