Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer

Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd update this one! In a search for a simple thermometer/ hydrometer for my greenhouse and conservatory that won't need WiFi running down the garden; I have found this Switchbot set up (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0BVZDVFZG?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_...

I’d be happy to share info and images with anyone who would like to contact me. Thanks Chris. Will try and ...
