IP65 Indoor Outdoor Hygrometer Thermometer Wireless, 394ft Bluetooth Range, Refrigerator Thermometer, Dewpoint/VPD/Absolute Humidity Sensor, Free Data Storage Export, 2 Years Battery Life

Returned. Bluetooth range not working for greenhouse location.

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-random 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 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 v0.4 to v0.5 - 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 it is now at v0.9. 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. Apparently it uses the same chipset as my now defunct LIORQUE weather station (also reviewed) and the values it returns are generally almost identical. 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 large graph follows an import into Excel 2024 with no further changes (!) and the other two graphs show what Switchbot can display using its own facilities. ChatGPT can run riot with the exported files. The battery level remained at 100% for a long time and is 67% after 15 months so, if the app is reporting the level accurately, the batteries will probably last for about 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 four months, 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. Having had two other weather stations fail during the bad weather (huge temperature and humidity fluctuations) in January 2026, I am going to extend my Switchbot "estate" as the good build quality mentioned in the second paragraph matters ... a lot. It 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.

good

Piyasada pek çok dış mekan uyumlu akıllı termometre bulunmuyor. Bu çok iyi çalışıyor. Özellikle mevsim değişim zamanlarında kullanımı. Alexa ile tamamen uyumlu! Ayrıca belirli bir sıcaklık veya nemde sizi bilgilendirir.

Dessa små utomhustermometrar är fantastiska! Jag har fyra stycken i mitt växthus och på min balkong som hänger där i ur och skur nu under vintern. De hjälper mig att kontrollera och automatisera värmen i mitt växthus och enormt pålitliga och lätta att använda. Rekommenderas varmt! Det behöver dock en hub och köpte först en Switchbot hub mini matter men borde ha köpt Switchbot hub 2 direkt då denna fungerar även i Home Assiatant och ha fler platser.
