Hi, can set the temperature threshold using decimals in the app (instead of 5C use 5.2C for example)? Thanks you in advance. P.S. Keep up the good work!
I'm just adding my experience here - the pairing wouldn't work with the manufacturer-installed batteries (yes, even with the battery isolation removed!) I would see the flashing lights but no pairing. It wasn't until I put in fresh batteries that the sensor would pair.
Great video. I have so many IoT devices connected to my router that my bandwidth has decreased. Do you have a video to enhance this or any other suggestion you can give me like creating VLANs? What devices should I buy? Thank you!
Sorry, I have no idea. Definitely one reason to switch to Zigbee, so that instead of all the different individual IoT sensors, only the Zigbee bridge is connected to the wifi. You can buy a router which works on 2.4 and 5GHz as well, and you can migrate all your laptops, phones to 5Ghz network and leave 2.4 for the IoT. You can also download a wifi scanner app on the phone to see which wifi channels are used by your router and other wifi networks and maybe set it manually so it is on a less busy channel.
I tested it with a Blitzwolf zigber bridge and this was working with it, but the Sonoff button did not. So I think it will most probably will but I am not 100% sure.
In terms of the sensor, it is probably same or very similar. TH16 connects to the wifi directly, and it also has a relay. So it can directly control a device, for example a fan, or dehumidifier. The zigbee sensor works on zigbee, it also needs a zigbee bridge before you can use it. And it is only a sensor, if you want to control anything (like a fan), you need another Sonoff like a Basic that has the relay to control any device.
@@Eby_100 :) Zigbee is a very low power and slow protocol, created for devices to send small amount of data infrequently. Definitely not for audio for video. But who knows how the tech evolves in 10 years :)
@@csongorvarga I wonder if Google Home will treat is as a sensor. E.g. if you can ask "what is the temperature", or create routines depending on it. On itead site they claim that it should work with Google, but I don't have it myself to test and I haven't found anyone who tried that yet.
@@DidyshishBaishushish Sorry, I was not correct last time. I looked into this. I can see the ZB temp sensor in Google Home, I can ask what the temperature is, but it cannot be used for anything. Google Home routines start on voice command, or time/sunset/sunrise. Nothing else. You cannot set up a routine on a device state/event.
@@csongorvarga OK, thank you! Yes, Google Home is not a "smart home hub" per se, so it has only such limited possibilities. It is annoying that TH10-16, despite having temperature sensor, cannot be usedas both sensor and relay in more complicated scenes in eWeLink - e.g. I would like to have daytime and nighttime temperatures set to different levels, but that is not possible with single TH (ok, I know that ZigBee temp sensor + Basic ZigBee costs the same as TH16+Basic WiFi ;) ) BTW, I recently had Sonoff Basic to burn out while powering car preheater (2000W max), so from now on I will use Sonoff relays just to trigger high power rating contactors...
@@DidyshishBaishushish Yes I agree with both. Basic have a 10A relay, so 2000W is almost at its limit. So I am not surprised. POW has a 15A relay, I think that would suite the heater much better. And yes TH10-16 is very limited by software.
@@larryfoss4776 Hi Larry, I got a response back from my Sonoff contact, she says: "Celcius on eWeLink APP, Fahrenheit on Alexa APP". I don't own an Alexa so this is not something I have seen or tested.
@@csongorvarga Thank You - yes I can confirm - it connects to Alexa and the APP display's Fahrenheit - also you can ask her what is the temperature (device name) and she tells you... KOOL!
were you able to connect this to Smartthings? i got one about a month ago, it was a huge pain in the ass to get it to work, and even then it wasn't perfect. then after about a month it went offline and now i cannot get it set up correctly again. any tips??
@@dennisdavis6943 I have a couple of them. One is usually at room temperature and that does work fine. Another is in a freezer and that was a pain. I don't think the range on them is great. I use a lot of IKEA repeaters which I think help. Apart from that though, I don't anything special apart from the custom device handler but I expect you're already doing that?

Is this compatible with Philips Hue Bridge? And voice controlled with Amazon Alexa?

Good to know. Maybe it was shipped with nearly dead batteries. I am glad you got t working after all.
Hi - Thanks for this video. Do you know if the SNZB-02 can work with a Philips HUE bridge ? Thanks !

@@csongorvarga thank you! I think I will start buying Zigbee devices as you said!
How long does the battery last? I have one of these but my battery runs dead every month or so. Is this normal?
Hi, nice video, do i need the bridge for the the temperature and motion sensor?
Thanks, yes you need the bridge.
Can IT work with a Philips bridge?
I tested it with a Blitzwolf zigber bridge and this was working with it, but the Sonoff button did not. So I think it will most probably will but I am not 100% sure.
Hi! Can I use this to turn on and off an extractor fan connected to the Sonoff mini switch?
Yes, but don't forget to buy a.zigbee gateway as well if you don't already own one.
Üdv Csongor, tizedesjegyeket lehet állítani az okosvezérlésben?
Szia, most néztem meg és nem. Mutatja a kijelzőn, de ha beírom hogy 25.5 akkor azt írja ki hogy egész számot adjak meg :(
Igen sajnos, termosztátotok vezérélésére használnám, de így nem az igazi, gondolom bug, majd javítják. A TH10-el működik a tizedesjegy. Azért kösz
Hi, I have a question about the ISCH030A (from one of your old videos) do you have email? Or do I ask you here?
Hi, great video thaks. Can I adjust temperature measurement if it no . Can I calibrate temperature measurement if it is no accurate?
No, unfortunately I did not find a way to do that.
On smart things you can
Hi. Is this scene working in LAN mode? Thanks!
That actually I have not tested. Scenes do not work if you have no active internet connection. You most probably can access the sensors locally tough.
What's the difference between the zigbee and TH16?

This have camera features to see people?
No, just temperature and humidity
@@csongorvarga Thanks for your reply. I saw this device at my client home, I thought is cctv camera or listening device 😆 🤣

Does it work with Google Assistant?
The ewelink app works with Google not the device directly. But this is just a sensor, Google will not do anything with it.

Hi - anyway to display Fahrenheit instead of Celsius?
Hmm good question. I don't see the option to change to Fahrenheit...
@@csongorvarga Thx for your reply - not good for us in the states that more or less only use/understand Fahrenheit - Firmware update? I hope...
@@csongorvarga forgot to mention I have a bunch of Sonoff WiFi devices and they have the "units" option for temperature...

Szia, can we use it as datalogger too?
No, ewelink does not hold historical readings. Tuya with Tuya bridge does.
@@csongorvarga Okay thank you very much i will look up for Tuya now
Do you know if this would pair with a Smartthings hub?
I think it would. These are Zigbee 3 sensors and compatible with other Zigbee gateways
@@csongorvarga Thanks for the advice. I'll see if can get hold of them as I'm in the UK.
