Zigbee Temp + Humidity Sensors
Hi all,
I'm looking for zigbee temp and humidity sensors that work with HA, are pretty accurate and either are mains powered or have use a battery that can be recharged e.g. AA or AAA.
I like the Sonoff SNZB-02D, but they use disposable coin cell batteries.
One I found that looks like it might fulfill these criteria is

But they're kinda spendy. Anyone have any recommendations?

Not sure how precise they really are but they connected easily. Have them running for 34 months now, they run for months on rechargable AAA (I got high quality ones, Varta I think)

Shelly's integration works well, and mqtt is available. I use the. Plugged in and the update rate is awesome.

in reply to ueiqkkwhuwjw • • •I think the options either that combination are limited. IKEA Zigbee devices use removable batteries, but they don’t have a temperature sensor. They do have a USB air quality sensor but it’s a bit more complex/expensive.
There are some good WiFi, Bluetooth or RF options with removable batteries but they won’t be Zigbee.
I’ve heard of some people modifying the coin cell devices to used a wired power supply, maybe that would be an option.

looks like these are the rechargable version.

I have a mix of those and an old version of these Govee Bluetooth sensors that are also fully offline, take AA batteries, and pair well with HA

Not strictly ZigBee, but cheaper, just as accurate as the 3R, and fully offline

in reply to ueiqkkwhuwjw • • •Of course! From an end-user the experience between Bluetooth and ZigBee sensors is basically indistinguishable, except for range.
I have a detached garage, on the opposite end of my property from my HA controller, so the Bluetooth sensor out there specifically was a little flaky. The BT sensor is rated for ~160 ft but realistically it's 50-100 ft if your home has walls.
Swapping that one sensor to ZigBee so it could tie into my mesh network solved the problem. All other BT sensors have had zero issues, and their AA batteries unsurprisingly last longer than the 3R ZigBee AAAs, but both last at least 6mo.
Some Shelly devices can be used as "Bluetooth repeaters" but I'm unsure of the specifics of how that works.
