Hubitat with Homemade Temperature, Humidity, Pressure and Light sensor

Battery is reporting as 100 (%), but I have no battery connected. Is this the expected behavior? I would have expected it NOT to report battery if there is none. Even better report the Power Source information (Basic Report, Attribute 0007, maybe show DC Source (value 04) normally then switch to Battery (value 03) when that is being used.

Yes. It will report 100% when unplugged.

In my other variant, I did have something similar to what you envision using the IAS cluster. Zigbee has some cluster that you can adopt to detect switch between DC or main power. I do not remember whether Power Source information is "report-able" in Power cluster. IAS DC/Battery cluster is report-able attribute.

Homemade Zigbee Environment sensor with Power outage and Hardwire Smoke detector

Hi Everyone, It has been more than a year as a hobby I have been making Environment Zigbee sensor. I will not bore everyone here since there are already long discussion about it here. I thought since we are able to monitor environment aspect of a room lets look at some other thing that probably make sense to monitor. In a way, I am always looking for a way to extend the modules. Here is what I come up with. I added an AC to DC power converter so that we do not need to use our old USB phon…

Are you looking to find out when the sensor is powered by DC or Battery? If yes, there is a couple option using either the Analog Input. There is a pad (let me check with the schematic and get back to you) that will output 5V when powered by DC. The same pad with go to 4.2V or less when it is powered by battery. By detecting the voltage, you can detect whether you are on DC or Battery. I believe I also have DTH on my my github for this.

This one is more to just confirm... there is no configurable refresh interval, it is just going to produce events when the change has been big enough?

The 4 sensors (light, temperature, humidity and pressure) will auto update. Diagnostic Attribute such as packet loss and etc has to be manually refreshed. This is based on Zigbee Diagnostic cluster.

Thanks
