Review on Govee WiFi Hygrometer Thermometer 3 Pack H5151: Indoor/Outdoor Smart Sensor for Room Temperature & Humidity, Wireless with App Alert - Ideal for Home and Greenhouse (not support 5G WiFi) by Yung Rich

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Neat product. But improvements are needed!

So I'm a pretty solid cigar collector. 14 humidors from small to large. Over 1000 cigars. Some of them are ordinary. Some are very rare, some have been out of production for over 20 years and some Cuban tobaccos are over 60 years old. Obviously anything I can get to help me monitor and check all humidors for temperature and humidity is a bonus. I decided to try this system (in fact I believe I was the first person in the US to get 3 extra sensors from the manufacturer). I have 9 sensors in total and the hub.setup is very simple. However, let the sensors read and notify you if something exceeds the parameters you set. about moisture. I set up each sensor in the app to notify me when the humidity drops below 60% or exceeds 73%. ok when i open the app. I MAY then be notified or NOT. After each sensor is connected to the hub. Updates and sends all the information (and with 9 sensors. It takes a few minutes), it seems that the sensors are NOT communicating with the hub. Unless I'm in the app. Stupid. Haven't found a setting that changes this (if that's the case) and for people like me. I DON'T NEED graphs with highs and lows of humidity from day to day. Hour by hour etc. I really want the app on my phone to show the message: Sensor 1 (humidor 1) equals xx% for humidity. Sensor 2 (humidor 2) shows xx% humidity. Nooo, I have to wait for all the UPDATES and plot. Then scroll to the bottom of the chart to see the current number. Come on Geovee. Sometimes it's harder. DO NOT! a way to get rid of the histogram and just have one number. If there is. I will repeat this review! But I didn't find it. Problems with WiFi. The hub is connected to Wi-Fi. The hub is about 10-12 feet from the WiFi router. The hub doesn't update the information from the sensors to the app unless I tell it to do so manually. Excuse me. CHECK MANUALLY? THIS IS VERY ANNOYING. I checked all settings, everything is fine. It just doesn't load into the app. If I don't go to the app to check. sensors. I can't say anything about the accuracy. If these bugs are fixed I would give 5 stars. Not 10 stars. Until. Sorry, but a few stars will be deducted. I would give 3.5 stars but that doesn't let me, so to be honest I'm not upgrading to 4. I'm going down to 3. Good product. me about this review and your product. get in touch with me! I'll talk. This is an honest and unbiased review. Their product protects and tracks over $10,000 worth of fragile cigars.
