I am sure this is just an erroneous reading from the device but probably warrants putting an
if reading?.value != null in the code to ignore bad/null data. Or i suppose it could be a reading of 0 degrees being interpretted as a null depending on how handled..
Purely as an aside, and I know I could search, but what Z-wave sensor are you using in your freezer?
My ZSE44 works in the fridge section, but dies in 1.5 months in the freezer.
Thanks.
Sweet. Thanks. I'll look into it. I know you've done comprehensive research.
Likely not LR, but that's just a personal quest.
As an aside, for a side-by-side, monitoring the fridge section vs freezer might be better since it doesn't see the swings in temperature from the defrost cycles; less complex rule.
The ZSE44 keeps hanging in there, in the fridge side, despite the anemic CR2032 battery showing 17% left for months.
That is an old-■■■ z-wave sensor.
I used to have a few paired to my smartthings hub (was probably using @kahn-hubitat’s driver now that I think about it ).
That’s impressive if they still work in a freezer after all these years.
Or did they make newer models with that same form factor?
re fridge vs freezr two in basement are only freezers..
re not made anymore.. hard to find.. think i still have one new in the basement in spares box
not zw plus.. my only devices that are not... but good range from basement up to hub upstairs.
