Looking for ZigBee or 433MHz soil sensors!
Hello to #HomeAssistant gardeners! I’m unsure what’s good right now as far as those go. Smaller sensors are better, not as small as coin cell, and especially if I can get illuminance as a sensor.
Just unsure what to pick. Reviews are mixed on so many options it feels like. Some complain ThirdReality’s are too huge, some complain of disconnects.
Right now I’ve a generic larger ZigBee one and a tiny BLE MiFlora, and open to others.
Just checking the HA forums is this guy https://community.home-assistant.io/t/soil-humidity-sensor-433mhz-decode/202335
I have the whoffset AQI that has worked well, and I’m always looking to expand lol
@bravesilvernest Dang, was hoping it’d play nice with the RFlink style boxes, the fact I’d need a dedicated RTL for it (that doesn’t overheat either, had that issue) is a bit oof. But I’ll keep it in mind. I’ve also seen that exact form factor in ZigBee.
Tbh, I read both 433 & 908 on the same box and just switch every 10s :)
