Review on πŸ’§ THIRDREALITY Zigbee Water Leak Sensor: Upgraded with Dripping Detection, 120 dB Alarm, and App/Email Notifications - Compatible with SmartThings, Aeotec, and Third Reality Hub by Sean Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Minor issues but works great with SmartThings

Bought 8 of these sensors to use with SmartThings Hub. The sensors connected with no problems, but the reported battery level using the batteries (cheap generic batteries) that came with the camera was around 50%. All sensors with new batteries. A minor inconvenience, but worth noting. My only minor complaint is that the screws, which are also the actual water contact sensors, aren't high enough and report water too late in my opinion. I fixed this by adding a small piece of wire to the screws to lengthen them and it works wonders. I'm assuming a ballpoint nib or something similar would work as well, but the manufacturer should have fixed that by adding larger screws. Aside from the two small issues I described above, the sensors work fine with my SmartThings hub and behave as expected. I definitely recommend it for this price!
