I bought this to work with my smart plug which is connected to the dehumidifier. I set an automation so that if the device detects a humidity of 60% or above in the room, the dehumidifier turns on until it reaches 45% or below, at which point the switch for the dehumidifier is turned off. For this purpose it seems to be working well!
It is a very small and attractive unit - inconspicuous and will blend into any room. I have other cheaper thermometers and the temperature is more accurate than the others. It was also super easy to add to HomeKit and the Home app.
There are drawbacks though:
1. Compared to other humidistats, it is slightly slower to detect changes. This isn’t a huge issue as it doesn’t matter if there’s a slight lag.
2. This is an expensive unit for what is essentially a thermometer and humidistat that can send this basic data to your phone. You could save a lot of money by using a non-HomeKit solution.
3. It works by Bluetooth, so the range is very limited when compared with WiFi. Your phone would need to be relatively nearby.
4. To create automations with other devices, or even access the temperature and humidity data live from outside your home, you’ll need to invest in an Apple TV or a recent iPad that you leave at home. This is because a Hub is needed to get it communicating with other devices in your home. I have an Apple TV so it’s OK - but it’s an important note to make before buying.
All in all I am happy with this in my current setup, but believed I paid a bit more than I should’ve.
