I2C Soil Moisture Sensor, Light reading

Hello Community,

I’m currently working on a project that involves a Chirp sensor I2C Soil Moisture Sensor from Catnip for measuring moisture, light, and temperature. The Python script I’m using is from GitHub - ageir/chirp-rpi: Python library for the Chirp I2C soil moisture sensor.. The script performs moisture and temperature measurements flawlessly, but I’m encountering an issue with the light measurement. It consistently returns the value 65535. I attempted to introduce a 2-second delay before the light measurement, but the problem persists.

Has anyone encountered similar issues with Chirp sensors and light measurements?
Are there specific settings or considerations for performing light measurements with the Chirp sensor?

Best regards
