Reverse TSNS: Detects COLDER temps

    What about a variation of TSNS, that detects colder temperatures rather than warmer? 

     

    With the current set of elements, it is very difficult to make a electrical current "cold-dependant".

     

    This sensor could potentially have many different applications.

    It would be good, and maybe not hard to code, for example, if its tmp or tmp2 is 0 it works normally but if its tmp or tmp2 1 it is reversed.

    You could be tricksy and use two heat-detectors to make a cold detector, just detect a really low temperature (say 0K) and then a higher one (say 100K) and make it give a spark only IF 0K is sparking AND 100K is NOT sparking.

    Not the same as full cold detection, but it's a workaround!

    You could also use a not gate. Detect if something is hotter than some temperature, then use a not gate to reverse that.
