ThingSpeak Cloud Chart Uploader
Live Cloud Charts from Your Desk: ThingSpeak Uploader Kit with ESP8266
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
What if you could see your room's temperature and light levels from your phone, with graphs that redraw themselves every minute — no coding beyond the first setup? This kit makes that real. In just a couple of hours, you'll have an ESP8266 sending DHT22 temperature/humidity and LDR light readings to ThingSpeak, where free cloud charts update automatically, 24/7.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a compact sensor board that plugs into your computer once for programming, then runs standalone. Within hours, you’ll open ThingSpeak on your phone or laptop and watch two live charts: one tracking temperature and humidity, the other showing ambient light intensity, refreshed every 60 seconds without you touching anything.
What You'll Learn
- How to wire a DHT22 sensor and two LDRs to an ESP8266.
- Configuring the ESP8266 WiFi for IoT data upload.
- Setting up a free ThingSpeak channel to receive and chart sensor data.
- Interpreting real-time environmental data visualizations.

Who This Kit Is For
Students from CBSE Class 11-12 working on IoT projects, B.Tech ECE/EEE first-year lab experiments, ATL Tinkering Lab participants exploring cloud data, and even young makers at home who want to see their environment in the cloud. Perfect for Smart India Hackathon junior tracks or science exhibition demos.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on your kit box to open the AI build companion, which walks you through every connection and code upload. If you need human help, message us on WhatsApp — we’ll reply within hours.
Do I need a ThingSpeak account and does it cost anything?
Create a free MathWorks ThingSpeak account in under a minute. The free tier is more than enough for this project’s data — it allows millions of messages per year.
Can I view the charts from anywhere or only on my home WiFi?
Anywhere! The data is stored on ThingSpeak’s cloud, so you can check your live charts from your phone’s 4G, school computer, or any device with internet access.
What happens if the power goes out?
The ESP8266 has no battery backup (unless you add one), so it will stop uploading. Once power returns, it will restart automatically and begin showing new readings.
ESP8266 posts DHT22 and LDR readings to ThingSpeak. Free cloud charts update every minute automatically.
