Soil Moisture Sensor

I' have put a DO NOT BUY ! warning on the Tuya driver page for this device.

The feedback is greatly appreciated. It is tempting as a complement to the ZigBee valve, but only if it behaves in a reasonable manner.

Is that this device?

Mine stopped working after 5 months and the battery stuck at 0% from day 1. The battery went dead, and even tho the unit appears well sealed with gaskets, it got wet from sprinkler and it's toast now. LED not working even with new batteries

I know this is an old thread, but I'm curious about the Plaid moisture sensor. It pairs via Zigbee, but I can't seem to get a reading from it.

Any tricks you can share?
