At the moment, I'm just planning to solder them directly t  the CAT5 cable,
and then ideally mount that in "something" - don't know what yet,
one thing
I thought of was to destroy some "Bic" biro's and have the DS1820
stuffed in
the end with just a little bit of the top of it poking out, - the legs,
solder joins & a few cm of the cable inside, secured with hot-glue...
(haven't tried it yet though...)
