Questions

How big is the Water level PCB?

It measures 53 × 39.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Water level use?

20 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Water level KiCad files?

From the Vulcalien/water-level repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/water-level.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/water-level.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Water level design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Vulcalien before reusing the design.
