GoveeLife Upgraded Smart Water Leak Detector 1s with 1804ft Ultra-Long Range, WiFi Water Sensor with SMS/Email/APP Push and Sound Alarm,5-Year Battery Life, 5 Pack, Suit for Home, Basement, Kitchen

J’ai installé tout récemment ces détecteurs de fuite d’eau. Très intéressant qu’ils soient IP67, qu’ils soient WiFi et qu’ils puissent détecter une fuite d’eau par dessus et en dessous des détecteurs. J’ai fait un test et tout a bien fonctionné. Intéressant aussi que la pile soit garantie 5 ans et que l’application permette de voir son énergie résiduelle. Je ne sais pas encore s’il est possible de changer la pile, ce qui permettrait de justifier pleinement le coût du produit. Je recommande ce produit.

Great Cyber Monday deal for the 5 sensor array! App works great, was easy to connect to my WiFi network and add the 5 sensors. The water sensor reception range is remarkable, especially since they are on the floor and have large metal equipment in the signal path (washing machine, hotwater tank and a generator next to it). And the dual sensors on each sensor is really cool, so if say a toilet valve starts to drip it will detect that on the topside sensor if sensor is placed under the valve, while flooding water will trigger the bottom sensor. Got the kit just in time for an insurance inspection. My old "not so safe/easy to defeat" SimpliSafe security system had water sensors, caught a leak under kitchen sink from in-sink erator that rusted out. But no longer use it, so this Govee system is great for peace of mind.

This Govee product appears to work as advertised. If you will allow me a few minutes of your time, I will ramble a bit and share my thoughts/experiences with this water leak detector product. I noticed other reviewers have had similar experiences as I. It took me awhile to make everything work (with the help of their customer service), but I finally did. First off, I'm being generous when I say their “user manual” is limited. Manufacturers must be competing to see who can create the smallest manual. Ink and paper must be very expensive, hence the small pages and tiny print. After downloading and installing their app, and paying close attention to the instructions, I managed to get the sensors paired with the gateway. As you add a new sensor, make sure you rename it to something that makes sense to you, like... “hot water heater”. After all the sensors are paired, you will see icons for each sensor when you open the app. Here's what they don't tell you... You MUST enable the gateway AND each individual sensor to send “email” alerts. In the gateway settings page I did turn on the “Email alert” and checked the “Send to account email” box, thinking this would turn on the email alerts. NOT enough. You have to do this for all sensors. Otherwise, no email alerts. Why? I don't know. Would you want some sensors NOT to alert you of a leak? Seems like setting the gateway to send alerts should have been enough. Test all sensors to make sure they are working and you are indeed receiving emails. You can test them by simply wetting your finger tip and wiping the contacts on the top of the sensor. They do make a loud shrill sound. You'll definitely hear it. To stop it, I just wiped the sensor against my shirt until the contacts were dry. Do all this testing in one location, then you can distribute them accordingly. I found an unused, and likely not to be used, outlet location to plug the gateway into. It is somewhat centrally located to all the sensors, and about 25 feet from my wifi router. All my sensors showed four bars of battery strength, except one. It showed only three. I installed new batteries in it to bring it up to four bars. Time will tell how long the batteries actually last. I'll monitor the sensor batteries from time to time, and when they drop to two bars, I may replace all the batteries just to be safe. It will be fun retrieving them given the location of a couple of them... like under the dishwasher and behind the washing machine. After disributing everything, I repeated the "wet finger" test on the sensors to ensure the walls and other stuff didn't interfere with their function. All was well. Now, although I was able to get the email alerts to work, I couldn't get the “text message” alerts to work. No text messages. Then I reached out to the Govee customer service (again), and they helped me. There is another “on” switch in the settings of the sensor called “Message alert”. I just missed it (was looking for a “Text alert”. My bad.) Anyway, after turning this switch on, and entering my cell phone number... it worked! As it turns out, you only have to turn the switch on for one sensor. All the other sensors will automatically be set up. Now... everything works great. Although they state otherwise, this system is working fine on my 5G home network. Also, the little book states “Ensure there are no obstructions between the gateway and the detector”. Don't know about this warning since “walls” and “appliances” would be considered “obstructions”. I have a sensor behind my washing machine, under the kitchen sink, under the dishwasher, and in the basement under the hot water heater. (I haven't placed one behind the refrigerator yet.) There are obviously walls, metal, and distance between the gateway and the sensors, and they all work fine. Now, I want to give a shout out to the Govee customer service team. While trying to get the email/text alerts to work, I exchanged a couple of emails with Mandy, and she was very responsive and courteous. Wish all customer service representatives were this way.

This product is awesome. I originally bought this device because I was a victim of a sump pump failure that reault resulted in major damage to my basement. Something like this would've saved me $40k. Well I had extra devices and just last night I ended up putting one near my washer. It had previously flooded years ago during the winter but I've learned some preventive measures...as I thought. My pipes has been frozen but I've been running a heater in my laundry room. I thought it was safe to was because the room was way warmer and now the water was running in the washer. Within 10mins I heard the water sound crazy. I can see the water start to make its way down to the floor. As soon as it touched the device, the devices alarm sounded very loud and alerted my phone immediately. No delayed timing at all. I saw it happen in real time! Very pleased. Great price and now I want to buy more for all of my facuets about possible water leak areas in my home.

These water leak detectors work great!!! Love them so much i got a set for my son and my sister! A week after setting them up a small drip happened under my kitchen sink and sure enough the alarm went off. I probably wouldn't have noticed that very small leak for weeks! Highly recommend them!
