After running HA for 2 years and tinkering with the stuff I already had, it was time to extend the little machine via Zigbee. I got an Aqara Temp/Humidity/Pressure sensor, which in itself works fine. It just chewed through 30% of battery in 4 days. Now that might be an issue with placement and signal strength (basement through 2 floors), but it doesn’t bode well unless it “levels out” at some point.
Which brings me to my actual question: does anyone know any such sensors that are wall-powered in any way? Something that can be plugged in and “forgotten” about?
It’s zwave, not zigbee, but I use a Aeotec Multisensor 6 as it can be usb powered from a wall and I don’t have to worry about it.
The cheaper tri-sensor from them is battery only and it’s a massive pain to have to keep replacing.
