WiFi Thermometer Hygrometer H5051, Bluetooth Indoor Temperature Humidity Monitor with App Notification Alert, Smart Humidity Sensor for Greenhouse Wine Cellar, 2 Years Free Data Storage Export

Have purchased this model, 3x now. Nice humidity and temp combo, NOT to be used outdoors. WiFi and/or blue-tooth, stable and usable. Need to replace batteries at least 1x a year. Works with your phone. One in garage, one in Barn and one in Crawlspace.

We bought 5 ($75 each) of these in December, 2018 to monitor our summer house during the winter, and make sure we did not loose heat from our old boiler. After some work, I got all 5 to work. Left town, and headed for warmer weather. At first they all worked, and I was glad to see the data. Over the course of 3 months, they all disconnected one by one. By the time the last one failed, it was March, 2019 and we were past the high risk winter temperatures. When we returned to the summer house, I saw that the displays were still working but no connection. I simply put them all in a drawer. In late October, 2019 it was time to get the house ready for winter again, and I decided to check them out before finding another brand. All the displays were dead. I tested each of the original batteries, and found readings from 0.01v all the way to 1.00v. Like a bunch of random numbers. Good batteries do not run down like that. These were clearly really cheap batteries. I replaced all 15 batteries with new Kirkland AAA batteries that I already owned. Those all started at about 1.59v. All 5 units instantly jumped back to life, automatically reconnected, and started reporting data again. They were all as good as new, and and fully wifi connected. No need to re-program. Moral of the story is to throw away the included batteries as step one. Put in 3 high quality batteries. I suspect the batteries are the source of many many problems people are reporting. Not sure how much time to expect, but 5 or 6 months is all that I really need to have. I will buy one or two more, depending on whether or not wifi can reach the garage. That allows me the ability to see temps in every cold corner of this large house with radiant water heat in wooden floors. With more than a mile of copper / water pipes in wooden floors, I can not allow the house to ever ever freeze. These work great, with great reports. They just need a good power source.

My HVAC (Carrier) has a thermostat that communicates with furnace, A/C (or heat pump), zones, manages humidity and variable speed functions. Carrier has made wifi controls, but they have been expensive and dismal failures. To use a Nest or similar would dumb down the whole HVAC system. The only function I needed was the ability to know if the furnace was maintaining temperature when I traveled (in the winter). The Goove Wifi does it, very well. I am so impressed by how reliable and how accurate temp and humidity readings are. You need Bluetooth for initial setup, but after that the Govee thermostat sends data over wifi to the Govee cloud (free). I was basking in the warmth of Texas this winter knowing that my home was not going to have frozen pipes. I did take the extra steps with other products to 1) detect leaks 2) turn off whole house water 3) turn off hot water heater 4) open/drain hot/cold water at the lowest point . Those address other problems, but the most probable scenario is heat out, and the Govee sensor is the key piece there. I've had temperature monitoring solutions for the past 35 years, but initial products required a land line and early wifi units were expensive and clunky. Govee is pragmatic and inexpensive. Far more precision than I need, but if you have a greenhouse you could sleep at night knowing this product has you covered.

Purchased three of these to monitor the temperature at our church. They were deployed a month and a half ago, have a strong connection to wifi and are set to refresh every 30 minutes. Battery life is excellent - they are only down one bar. They have been reliable and are reasonably in line with our hvac sensors. I purchased these so we could better see the trend lines in temperature change and get alerts for temps outside center parameters. They have worked well. I have two minor complaints (thus taking away one star). I would like to be able to adjust the settings remotely. That does not appear possible unless you are in Bluetooth range. The second issue is when first set up, they worked on wifi for a short time then needed to be reconnected. (They have worked fine since then). It is an odd glitch. However, these are excellent devices and I’d recommend them to anyone. We will probably add a few more and look at other Govee products. These are dead simple to setup and have worked well.

I’ve been using Govee thermometer/hygrometers since 2021 and love their ease of use, accuracy and customer service. I also use Govee humidifiers, water leak detectors and an air purifier. I use them mainly for my pet reptiles. The app makes it easy to monitor and control the environmental conditions, which is a crucial part of reptile husbandry. I highly recommend Govee products.

I purchase three of these units over a couple of years. Initially I liked them ams all worked. I used the to monitor temp and humidity when boing back and forth between two homes since I wanted to be able to know my HVAC systems were working properly when I was away for months at a time. I now have to conclude that I can no longer trust them. They may be fine When you are in Bluetooth range, both they are totally unreliable over WiFi when I am out of town and need them most. Two units at one location failed to reconnect with WiFi. Even though they had good WiFi signal and sufficient battery power. The first unit that I purchased and that I had at another location worked fine for over a year, and suddenly it stopped communicating by WiFi on Oct 12. Nothing I can do remotely will reconnect it or refresh it. Even though it says it has been refreshed, it will not display any data past Oct 12. The batteries are good and it is in the same location it has always been at in that home. WiFi signal is good. But it is now worthless to me. If I cannot rely on them to stay connected, they are really worse than useless. Govee replaced one of the units, but I am no longer willing to keep trying after this latest experience. Fortunately I have another WiFi temp and humidity monitor from another company and both of them continue to work flawlessly. I was intrigued by the Govee since it was smaller and I thought I would add more monitoring locations without needing to run a 120VAC line. But without now being a le to leave town and have confidence in them, I cannot recommend them. The concept is fine, but there is definitely a product design issue. My advice is to look elsewhere. I am fully familiar technically with such products and the WiFi in both locations is very fast and is not the proble. I have no issue monitoring my other devices remotely. Just the Govees.

It was very easy to set up and the app is pretty easy to use. I did need to calibrate it because it was initially reading about 20 degrees cooler; the calibration is pretty easy to do through the app, but it's limited. I could never get it closer than about 10 degrees cooler than the real temp, but it was reading consistently precise allowing me to just add 10 to the reading for the real temperature. I was able to get the humidity to be almost exact. I would recommend this product if you have reptiles. I bought it for my frilled dragon when she became very ill and I wanted to check her temperature and humidity throughout the day; I could be at work and look at the graph the app generates to see how good things were throughout the day and have the real-time reading. But, like I said, have a secondary temperature reader for your reptiles since you may need to calibrate this product. I always recommend a temperature gun if you keep herps. Unfortunately, after about 2 months, the product stopped working. I did purchase a 3-year warranty, but they still have a good guarantee on the product. So, they have a rapid-replacement feature on the app. I was able submit my problem and send pictures; then, they got back to me in in less than 24 hours telling me that they would immediately send me a replacement. Their email also outlined when it should ship and when it should arrive, which is about 4 days after shipment. So, overall. I would say that I have so far had a good experience with this product and the company.

I did a TON of research trying to find the right kind of wireless hygrometer for my humidors. I looked at dozens of options and I finally settled on this. I was a little skeptical given the price was quite a lot lower for any other WiFi model I saw out there, but I’ve not been disappointed at all so far. I actually bought a second one about a week after my first because of how awesome it is. It’s extremely easy to setup and easy to operate and read. I was concerned that WiFi connection wouldn’t be that great and I just had overall reservations, but this product quickly erased them. The hygrometer is definitely accurate down to the 10th of a degree in both temp and humidity compared to 3 other digital ones I have. The fact that I can keep an eye on my humidor without ever opening it is amazing, but to be able to do it anywhere is phenomenal. I highly encourage people to consider this over some of the competitors products that are twice or even four times the cost for WiFi hygrometers... this does the job perfectly and there are no hidden fees or need to buy a WiFi station. It’s an all in one product that’s easy to use and most of all works perfectly. No complaints here! Do yourself a favor and take my research as enough to spend the $ on this, because I did a ton. I hope this saves the next guy like me some time and effort. I’m not a cigar aficionado, but I know enough that you don’t need to spend a ton of money to get exactly what you need with this. I can set up as many as I’d like, so I’ll definitely be using this on the rest of my humidors. Enjoy!

Item was non functional from opening the box

The hardware is great, no doubt. It does what it was designed to do but I cannot link it to Google Home whether I reset the device or Google itself.
