Description of Orbit 71005 B Hyve 5 Piece Extension

IMMEDIATE FLOOD DETECTION: The B-hyve Flood Sensor can detect water at only a few drops, and the audible alarm, together with the B-hvye app (Android or iOS) notification, will immediately inform you of a leak, so you can get it fixed before it becomes a problem. POCKET SIZED: The 1.6” x 0.6” hexagon design is small and discreet, so you can put it in even the smallest of spaces. Place it under heavy objects and easily gain access to it with the attached retrieval cord. TEMPERATURE MONITORING: Prevent pipes from freezing, food from thawing and more. The B-hyve Flood Sensor will monitor the surrounding temperature and alert you if the temperature goes outside your configured range. BATTERY OPERATED: Comes equipped with a replaceable CR 2032 coin cell battery that will last you 1 year while monitoring for leaks. Low battery notifications will be sent to your phone on the B-hyve app to let you know when it is time to change the battery. HUB REQUIRED, SOLD SEPARATELY: The Flood Sensor works with a B-hyve Gen 2 Wi-Fi hub (#21008) that connects to your Flood Sensor devices via long range Bluetooth 5.0. This allows for real-time cloud communication for updating settings, temperature readings, disconnection warnings, and more. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: In addition to the requirement that you also utilize a Gen 2 wi-fi hub (#21008) with your B-hyve Flood Sensors, please also note that we recommend you have at least one hub installed for every eight (8) flood sensor devices in your home.

Difficult to keep in touch

That's a fantastic idea but... My experience is that sensors have a hard time staying connected to the app. Although WiFi is less than 10 meters away.

Pros
  • BATTERY OPERATIONS: Comes with a replaceable CR 2032 button cell battery that lasts up to 1 year with leak detection. Low battery notifications are sent to your phone in the B-hyve app to let you know when it's time to change the battery
Cons
  • No power
