IP65 Indoor Outdoor Hygrometer Thermometer Wireless, 100m Bluetooth Range, Refrigerator Thermometer, Dewpoint/VPD/Absolute Humidity Sensor, Free Data Storage Export, 2 Years Battery Life

I have tried a few Bluetooth weather devices, and this Switchbot is the cheapest and best.Physically, its advantages over similar devices are that it uses standard batteries (2xAAA, supplied) rather than a semi-randomly chosen button battery, and that it is visibly waterproof - it is a smooth white plastic box and the battery compartment lid has a seal round it. Also, the nylon hanging loop is as new after 18 months outside and is far better than a hole in the back meant to go over a hook or a nail.I was surprised, for such a cheap device, to find that it supports firmware updates, as there was a notification in the app on the first Bluetooth LE connection. It updated in a couple of minutes from 0.4 to 0.5 - an odd version number for a released product - and, as is almost always the case now, there was nothing stating what the update fixed or improved. But the facility is important. In fact, there were four firmware updates in the first three months and the current version is 0.9, although there has not been a further update for over a year. The app is also updated every few weeks, and there is the option to try out beta versions.The Bluetooth signal is evidently good, and not entirely line of sight - I can transfer data into the app from a room about 60 feet away with the device slightly hidden round a corner of the house.Caching is well implemented and only new readings are transferred unless you explicitly clear the cache from within the app; this greatly speeds up everything as the device quickly accumulates thousands of readings. When I got a new phone it took 20 minutes to transfer all the readings.Its accuracy is better than that of my old Bresser weather station, which cost several times as much but badly underestimated temperatures. Here the quoted accuracy (+ or -0.2C) is, in itself, accurate in my experience.Another Switchbot advantage, although it gets oddly low ratings in Google Play, is the app. It looks good unlike many similar apps, is simple to set up and use, and data export is easy - select a date range and readings are exported to a comma separated values file in a defined time step. Exporting a reading every minute gives a huge 1.7MB/month file, but exporting a reading every half hour amounts to 50KB/month.I can produce graphs very easily from the exported file - the big graph follows an import into Excel 2024 LTSC with no further changes and the other two graphs show what the app can display itself.The battery level remained at 100% for a long time and is 58% after 18 months so, if the app is reporting the level accurately, the (standard alkaline) batteries will probably last for longer than the two years advertised.The Switchbot is an excellent data gatherer. If it could record barometric pressure as well as temperature and humidity, it would replace everything weather-related here. I use a second (ancient) Android phone to provide a semi-permanent display.A minor issue is that the instructions state that the temperature sensor is good to -20C, but the device is recommended only to be used at 5C or greater. It has been down to -6C, with whole days below 5C, and I have noted two missed readings in over a year, which were both when the temperature was well above 0C.Most impressive was that I discovered a bug when exporting. I raised a ticket in the app; there was a comment back about three days later that it was being "escalated to senior technical staff", then after six days there was a fix available in Google Play! That speed of response is otherwise unheard of in my experience, where technical comments are often not even acknowledged.As I had two other weather stations fail during the bad weather (huge temperature and humidity fluctuations) in January 2026, I extended my "Switchbot estate" as the good build quality mentioned in the second paragraph matters ... a lot. This device was the only survivor.£15 (£11 with a coupon) is an absolute steal for something which would have cost many times that a few years ago for the same functionality and would certainly have been less robust and less easy to use.

I am using this outside in my greenhouse and it has flawlessly kept track of the temperature and humidity for the last few months.It was very easy to setup within the Switchbot app and the app then allows you to track the stats over time. I have no complaints about the app at all however I have incorporated it and monitor the temp/humidity instead within Home Assistant which also works just fine.The sensor connects via wifi to my router and as above the sensor is outside the house in my greenhouse. My router is upstairs on the same side as my garden where the greenhouse is and I've not had any problems at all with connectivity. I do have temperature/humidity sensors in each room within my home and before placing it outside, I did compare it with my other sensors and the readings see accurate on this device. I don't know how accurate the battery level is but it's still showing 100% after a few months of use - it does claim in the advertisement to have 2 years battery life.The device is well made and appears to be fully waterproof so I think it would indeed work without problem outside (not within a greenhouse etc.).For the price, this is a great item and I certainly would recommend.

For me, this is a 5* product. I’ll get into why after I explain the 4*. One of the indoor / outdoor sensors in my pack of three unfortunately failed its firmware update out of the box and became bricked. Thankfully, support have been amazing and sending me a replacement. The process was little hassle. That being said, I feel out of principle I cannot give a 5* right now.The product itself is brilliant. Compact (actually smaller than I was expecting), which makes it unobtrusive and good to put in tighter spots or even inside things (a terrarium for example). Connectivity is excellent. No hub or even an app are needed for this, you can hook it straight into home assistant over bluetooth. However, the switchbot app is great and has a lot of useful functionality. One of my favourite things about this is that you can just use it or take it with you anywhere and check temp and humidity on your phone. I’m a bit of a data nerd so i’ve taken it to all sorts of different places in the short time i’ve had it.Accuracy is hard to gauge without a benchmark I know is 100%, which i don’t have. But I believe they are very accurate, and did my research before hand to make sure they would be. Having a number of these sensors, they seem to agree strongly with one another. Which is reassuring. The one thing I will mention, is that their time to adapt to a drastic change in temperature +-20 celsius is quite long. Perhaps 20 mins or maybe a bit more. This is no issue, as the accuracy is stellar. But for some others this may be a concern.Overall, i’d highly recommend these.

This has worked out great, easy to set up and very useful in home assistant automations. Would highly recommend.

Super device, I will not describe the operation with the Switchbot app, and focus on Home Assitant. The device is relatively small for a device that uses AA batteries, has a very cool, rounded shape, and comes with a 3m adhesive pad or ribbon for hanging. What is important, changing the batteries does not require a screwdriver and will take maybe 2 minutes, the problem may be opening the flap after sticking the sensor flap to the wall. I put the sensor into pairing mode by pressing the reset button for 2s, Home Assistant with bluetooth integration found it right away, I use Bluetooth integration in HA, and Switchbot Bluetooth integration, and this Sabrent BT dongle for under £6 - https://amzn.to/460Du0B - After adding sensor to HA, I also decided to try adding it to the SB app, I put the sensor into pairing mode again by holding the button for 2s and added it to the Switchot app. Interestingly, the sensor communicates with both devices, the phone and the HA. The sensor is very effective, it sends changes every 0.1 degrees, compared to the very expensive Philips Hue sensor, I would say that Philips is very slow in reporting changes, sometimes you have to wait and from 15minutes, and the motion sensor stopped working after a year. Super product, I will certainly get few more, for example, to monitor the refrigerator, so I put sensor into the refrigerator and I had a preview of the temperature and humidity from the refrigerator!!!! I might be tempted to replace some of the Xiaomi sensors. I sincerely recommend!

I have been using these as thermometers in a campervan fridge to monitor the temperatures as there was no gauge on the fridge. They were very easy to install using the velcro strips provided and the app has been very useful in accessing the data without having to open the fridge up to take readings.I'm now using the sensors through a Raspberry Pi using Home Assistant and they have been very reliable and it means I can read the data from anywhere (I think you can do similar with the switchbot hub but I had the RPi sitting around!).Overall I have been very impressed the build quality is very good and the temperature readings seem accurate when testing in a domestic fridge as comparison.

Would be 5 but no instructions on how to get the back off to start the batteries running. Eventually found someone's YouTube video and they just flicked the panel off but it isn't obvious. After that it has worked fine with the app.

I love this, it’s easy to set up, I use mine in an outside solar inverter and battery housing. It’s a IP65 rated so it’s ideal for where I want it. It gives accurate readings and it’s easy to read. The app is also easy to use and gives lots of information. I’d definitely buy again.

Używam czujników od dwóch lat i mogę jasno stwierdzić, że to świetne gadżety, działają bezproblemowo i do tej pory nie wymieniłem baterii ani razu. Leżą na zewnątrz i wewnątrz lodówki, zapewniając mi stały, wyraźny obraz temperatury i poziomu wilgotności. Pomiar jest precyzyjny i niezawodny. Polecam te produkty.

Returned. Bluetooth range not working for greenhouse location.

De thermometers zijn mooi afgewerkt en niet groot. Het batterijdeksel is afgewerkt met een rubber dichting. Werkt op 1 AAA batterij (meegeleverd).De app is handig en een mooi overzicht van meerdere weken. Verbinding is via bluetooth rechtstreeks in de app of via een Relais (apart aan te kopen) via wifi.Ik kocht een 3 pack zonder display en ben er heel tevreden over.

Ich habe das SwitchBot IP65 Thermometer Hygrometer 3er Set jetzt seit einigen Wochen und bin wirklich begeistert. Hier sind meine Erfahrungen:Verpackung und Lieferung: Das Set kam gut verpackt und vollständig bei mir an. Es sind drei Thermo-Hygrometer dabei, die mit kleinen CR2032-Batterien betrieben werden.

Die Geräte sind sehr leicht einzurichten – einfach die Batterien einlegen und die Geräte mit der SwitchBot-App verbinden.Design und Verarbeitung: Die Geräte sehen sehr modern und hochwertig aus. Sie sind klein und passen in jedes Zimmer oder auch draußen. Besonders gut gefällt mir, dass sie IP65-zertifiziert sind, was bedeutet, dass sie gegen Staub und Spritzwasser geschützt sind. Das macht sie auch für den Außenbereich geeignet, ohne dass man Angst haben muss, dass sie bei Regen kaputtgehen.Funktionen und Genauigkeit: Die Thermometer und Hygrometer messen sehr genau. Die Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit sind sowohl am Gerät selbst als auch in der App gut ablesbar. Ich habe die Werte mit anderen Geräten verglichen und sie stimmen fast perfekt überein. Es ist auch super, dass ich die Werte immer in der SwitchBot-App sehen kann. Die App ist einfach zu bedienen und zeigt alle wichtigen Informationen auf einen Blick. Besonders praktisch ist die Funktion, dass ich eine Benachrichtigung bekomme, wenn sich die Werte zu stark ändern, zum Beispiel wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit zu hoch oder die Temperatur zu niedrig ist.Vielseitigkeit: Das Set ist sowohl für den Innen- als auch für den Außeneinsatz geeignet. Ich habe eines im Wohnzimmer, eines im Keller und eines draußen im Garten. Die Geräte verbinden sich gut mit der App, auch wenn sie über ein paar Meter verteilt sind. Sie arbeiten zuverlässig und liefern immer die gleichen, genauen Werte.Fazit: Ich bin wirklich sehr zufrieden mit dem SwitchBot IP65 Thermometer Hygrometer 3er Set. Es ist einfach zu bedienen, liefert genaue Werte und ist gut verarbeitet. Die Geräte sind vielseitig einsetzbar, sowohl drinnen als auch draußen. Für den Preis bekommt man wirklich gute Qualität. Ich kann das Set auf jeden Fall empfehlen – klare 5 Sterne!

Ik had al drie sensoren en een hub gekocht. Dat werkt super. Nu drie sensoren erbij gekoppeld. Koppelen ging heel gemakkelijk en nu heb ik in de app en heel handig overzicht van alle temperaturen van alle ruimtes op een scherm, zoek binnen als buiten! Werkt heel goed! Is inclusief batterijen, dus prijs vind ik ook redelijk.
