Have a few xiaomi ones but was looking for a better hygrometer/thermomemter for nursery room (warning, history, etc) and this is showing 40% off with good reviews in Amazon US.
CamelCamelCamel.
Fair enough. Better suited for me (i think) as i'm looking for remote monitor via the app rather than LCD, etc etc.
Xiaomi also does app
i have it set up but cant seem to get history, notification and all that to work properly. Even bringing the unit up takes 2 mins to connect to tell me the current reading. Have you had better experiance with the app?
@Mazozb: I suspect the Govee will have the same problem. Syncs via BTLE and it's a slow protocol. I personally use it via Home Assistant
@0 0 0: I have a single Govee.
It keeps weeks / months worth of history on itself.
And it takes about 15s to reconnect the Bluetooth to get the newest data.
I put it outside so I can get actual Temp/humidity data because the BoM seem to have lost their minds and my area is frequently 3-6C off theirs.
@Mazozb: Buy a qingping Bluetooth gateway. This will solve yr problem and make it very responsive in the mihome app.
Which one is the Xiaomi one?
Would love a link.
Also Govee 2 pack for $17 after coupon available on Amazon
That seems to be a better deal actually…?
can't really tell whats the key difference between the 2 pack LCD version and this unit.
17 bucks for 2 seems pretty good
Link?
@KangaDrew: Probably all sold to slackers like me. 😀
I've taken a punt and will report back if I remember
@KangaDrew: I know this is old but my quick review:
- battery seems to get chewed up quickly & uses a cr2450 - maybe its old stock
- works with home assistant & bluetooth dongle & then pushes cleanly into apple homekit
- I put both together and one was 3 degrees higher than the other
I own the WIFI model and would recommend paying more for this model. No need to keep Bluetooth on all the time and can monitor from outside the home.
This good for growing mushrooms?
Don't see why not.
Accurate temps, humidity and dew point etc.
Lasts for ages (months+) on whatever battery I put in mine.
I'm looking to monitor my Cellars temperature and humidity year round.
Is this what it's for? I assume a Wi-Fi one would be better to check on my phone?
Wifi presumably will chew through batteries.
This is good if you are in range of BT.
Wifi version would be better but big price jump. https://amzn.asia/d/27ngcyw
What's generally Bluetooth range?
About 10m or so. Not taking into account obstructions.
;/
Does it work with Google Home?
Thank i think that would work. I want a temp sensor that does if temp 17 then open bedroom zone. If temp is 19 then close bedroom zone.
Best way to check is to goto google home and see if you can add Govee Hygrometer Thermometer.
Accurate?
Yup it measures in 0.1+- increments
thats resolution not accuracy
It looks like there's more in stock and it is cheaper now ($9.44)
The discount will expire in 7 hours
This is Bluetooth not ZigBee. Also more expensive than the Xiaomi equivalent which also has a LCD display
