Can you add code to have the exporter provide the temperature as Fahrenheit? I know the conversion itself is a simply math problem, but I just don't yet understand python well enough to successfully incorporate that in to a modification of your code. ...for that matter, perhaps also build in other conversions for other parameters, to allow for options in your (wonderful!) Grafana dashboard??

Forgive me if this is not the venue for sharing this comment, but I'm new to the GitHub world - and in fact, new to the python and sensor world as well! Any guidance is more than welcome!

I hope you haven't been waiting for my answer and went ahead discovering the rest of this awesome space 🤗. I think leaving the source in celsius is still valid but let me see if I can optimize the Grafana dashboard to support showing in Fahrenheit as well.

Lol. Thanks for your (delayed) response! Yes, I ended up shoehorning in some code to convert to Fahrenheit and then also added a bit to the Grafana dashboard to additionally show that. It's probably not exactly 'optimized', though, and I still would like to see it done on your end. Given that a large base of the users likely are familiar with Fahrenheit - for better or worse - that makes sense to me. Either way, some solution would be appreciated!

Thanks again for your reply - I do appreciate it!
