Air quality sensors? (lemmy.world)

I had a set of Davis Instruments air quality sensors that I kluged to work with HA. The one I use outdoors is no longer working, so I'm looking for a replacement. Can you recommend any particulate sensors that work directly with HA?

For the DI sensors, they have a local API that I wrote a custom script for that would get the various particulate readings and calculate the AQI. I'm not really in the mood to jump through all those hoops at the moment, so if there's one that runs off zigbee or z-wave?

One more Air Gradient user here. They just work with HA now. No need to change firmware or anything.

I like to have them on esphome. In my case I have them as Bluetooth proxies and also use them with Bermuda BLE triangulation (in addition to the air quality stuff).
