<![CDATA[temperature sensors]]>HI
which is the chepest way to manage temperature sensors with MM ? I mean, I’m searching cheap hardware sensors to retrieve temperature in one or more rooms
thanks

Once you follow the instructions in the readme - exactly - and reboot your system, it will work.

{
			module: "MMM-DHT-Sensor",
			position: "bottom_right",
			header: "Room Temp",
			config: {
				sensorPin: 26, // Use the GPIO number. GPIO 26/Pin 37. 
				sensorType: 22, // DHT 22 (DHT 11 change to 11)
				updateInterval: 60 * 60 * 1000,
				initialLoadDelay: 0,
				animationSpeed: 1000,
				units: "imperial",
				relativeScale: 35,
				debug: false
			},
		},

I’m desperately trying to download the module: https://github.com/ryck/MMM-DHT-Sensor

This one seems to be the most “DAY”. I have a DHT 11 to install but this one refuses to soul to make data returns. Thank you for your help.

ESP32 can run micropython so code is easy. ESP32 is cheap and so is the DS18B20. Simple compact and is WIFI.

What I’ve tried:

Xiaomi Aqara temperature sensors, which are super cheap but are reliable if and only if they’re close to the hub - they quickly lose connection and won’t reconnect if they’re distant (repeaters make it worse).

Centralite temperature/humidity sensor seems to work reasonably well, but needs CR2 batteries and goes through them quite quickly. Looks like they’ve stopped making them anyway kamukta

Samsung Multisensor, but it seems wasteful to have 6 measurements and only look at one of them

Boesch motion sensor, ditto

VIsonic door sensor, ditto, also only reports temperature a couple times a day

Are there temperature (or temperature/humidity) sensors for Zigbee or Z-wave that cost $15 or less that I can actually expect to work for more than a week at a time?

esp8266 and mysensors

no i haven’t find yet
I’ m trying with openhab and home assistant to read shelly h&t but I don’t understand how to setup
dht22 are connected to the PI ? do you have one Pi in each room ?
thanks

but I use a combination esp8266 and mysensors with dht22

It’s not impossible but don’t think anyone have done it.

Same goes for the esp8266, don’t think there are any modules for temperature for those either.

zigbee does need a gateway since it talks on another protocoll than regular wifi (even if it is on the same bandwidth).

try building esp8266 nodes with temperature sensors and run espeasy on them. should cost you around 10-15usd each, without power supplies.
otherwise you have ready made Shelly Temp Sensors that runs on wifi, they are a bit pricey though.

OK but I would measure the temperature of various rooms, so I was thinking about wifi or zeegbee sensors without using the gateway or a cheap gateway

I bought it for €0.85, complete with wires. But you need to get a 4.7k ohm resistor, which is not expensive. It is not waterproof and it does not read humidity. It is just a thermometer. Very straightforward installation.

https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2017/09/dht11-temperature-and-humidity-sensor-raspberry-pi/

I guess it will not get cheaper, but of course wiring and coding is necessary.
