Review on 🌑️ Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor: Remote Monitoring, Home Automation & Wireless Thermometer Hygrometer by Jeffrey Sanders

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Works with Smartthings, make sure you install the device handler.

It works well with my setup. My son's room is at the back of our house and we have mini split heating and hot water forced heating (oil). In the winter, we'll turn on the mini-stoves for heating at night, so it gets pretty cold in his room. This attitude will help you feel comfortable on cold winter nights. Amaze Heater: Wall Mounted Radiant Heater (400W) TP-Link Kasa WiFi Socket (KP200) Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor Smartthings Gen 2 Hub Everything seems to work fine for the most part with the automation set to half the output (connected to the heater ) when the Aqara sensor drops below 60F and turns off again when it reaches 68F. This sensor only works if you set a custom device handler in Smartthings. Just google. It's been running for over a month now and only uses about 11% of the Energizer 2032's lithium battery. Happy with this setup so far.
