Aeon Labs Z-wave Home Energy Meter Dsb09104 for sale online

The DTH for this is supposedly quite different than the one he used as his source. I did not look at the original, and now That I returned mine, I wont be buying another one until I know it works, and works fully. I'll get my code cleaned up and post it here soon in case anybody else has this device and wants to get it running in Hubitat.

It can wirelessly report immediate wattage and k. Meter can only communicate to devices within it’s own zwave network. The device driver I posted is pretty use case specific—I’m monitoring washer and dryer wattages to detect when laundry cycles are done. I just looked through the code you linked, and yes, it is very different. But really the difference between the two devices comes down to the Gen5 requiring secure inclusion mode in order to send configuration commands.

Thank you for choosing Ezlo

For whatever reason, the Gen5 HEM returns a 4-byte array for meterValue, instead of "scaledMeterValue" that all the other drivers I've seen reference. Once you convert the byte array back to a double, the readings make sense. These lot of devices are currently the unloved HE children...

This is needed to send the new driver parameters to the device. The first step is to install the Energy Meter on your energy mains and connect a set of 4 AA batteries. That v2 script that Barry Burke wrote takes advantage of some tile features that are not working on android and it causes some other weird issues. I am working on making my own HEM device type for our crippled model, but was interested to check with you since this post is old and didn’t want to reinvent the wheel. As I mentioned earlier, I bought a SmartThings hub and want to connect a couple of sensors and devices.

DSB09104 Home Energy Meter User Manual Aeon Labs .

I sought out the DSB09104-ZWUS, because Dan mentioned that he did not think the v2 was compatible with the driver. But that's neither here, nor there if your plan for the device is whole house energy monitoring. Also, some devices need a button press to put them in a mode for a few seconds where they will 'listen' for a configuration message to be sent to them. This is usually the case for battery powered devices, but always best to read the documentation that came with the device to make sure. Hooking up the energy meter in my breaker panel was easy. Just connect the 2 clamps to the 2 big black wires (don’t touch them duh!) and power the meter with the usb cable and the connector in a outlet.

aeon labs dsb09104 home energy meter 2 pack bundle

Was able to connect it but does not work out of the box. Requires days of modifications and math work to get it to work as you would think.

Also, there is a WiKi thread describing some of the changes necessary when porting drivers and apps from ST to Hubitat. You've probably already seen it, but I thought it couldn't hurt to link it here just in case. Since it is a Wiki, please feel free to add to the first post with any additional findings you come across.

Here is my thread which has a link to my Github Repository. Again, this Driver is not for your device, but it may help with what changes are necessary. I have a Gen 1 Aeon HEM running with a special Hubitat Device Driver that was originally written by @mike.maxwell for SmartThings for monitoring a washer and dryer.

This guide brings you an easy way of setting up your Aeon Labs Home Energy Meter. It is easy to pair up the energy meter with your Ezlo Atom. Ah works again, had to remove it from the zwave network and added it again. After that go to ‘My Devices’ Select your energy meter, click edit and change the type to Aeon HEMv2. After this when you open the app you will see the amount of energy the meter is reporting.

aeon labs dsb09104 home energy meter 2 pack bundle

Finally, if all else fails, you should reach out to @mike.maxwell as he writes and maintains most of the Hubitat Drivers. He would know for sure which model of the 'Aeon Home Energy Meter' the built-in driver is designed to work with. The pairing process we are about to see also works with our entire family of controllers.

This is my very first ever energy metering device. As such, it is quite possible there are steps that I am not familiar with. It could be, that I need to connect the clip meters to a powerline so that it starts collecting data before it will transmit anything. What I do know, is that I will not install this in my power panel until after I have confirmed that it works. So pairing is easy, bring the unit next to the hub and open the battery door on the back.

I launched the inspector, and tried configure again. When I click the Configure button I get an HTTP/302 redirect to GET which downloads the device edit page again. So, I don't know if the post event works or not. What I do know is that clicking configure has zero impact at the client web interface. I am not looking forward to trying to create a port of the official Aeon Labs DH for SmartThings. After changing the driver type, did you click the "Configure" button?

Google Home

Most wireless weather stations have a transmission distance of 330 feet between the console and the sensors. If the high-end Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2 is a bit too rich for your blood, stepping down to the Vantage Vue model is a smart move. You’ll still get the accuracy Davis is known for, but in an integrated package that is much easier to set up due to its all-in-one sensor suite. That said, the desktop console still feels dated, and the all-in-one sensor suite means you won’t be able to place some sensors in an optimal position for the most accurate readings.

smart weather station google home

Weather stations that include individual instruments that you can place separately from each other provide more accurate results, but they’re also more challenging to install. If you want the most accurate readings possible, you can mount the wind sensor up high where it needs to be. You could then add an additional thermo-hygrometer sensor closer to the ground—or even multiple thermo-hygrometers in different places around your yard. The best thing about the Ambient Weather WS-2902C is that you can add more sensors later on if you feel the need. It has all the basic bases covered right out of the box, but you can add up to eight additional thermo-hygrometer sensors , soil moisture sensors, and even air quality sensors.

Q. Are weather stations accurate?

We tried every function each weather station offered and awarded points based on performance, durability, and accuracy. To qualify the data, we compared it to a nearby official weather station as well as to our own Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2 Weather Station. While the other WiFi-capable weather stations we tested use a weather vane or an anemometer, the Tempest’s advanced design incorporates those features right into its cutting-edge cylindrical array. It has no moving parts whatsoever, so at first we thought it wouldn’t be capable of accurately measuring rainfall. At just over 120 feet, the console stopped receiving a signal—hardly the 330 feet advertised but still a decent range. Weather station manufacturers typically denote their product’s sensor range from the array to the receiving unit without making allowances for objects between the two points, such as walls or trees.

smart weather station google home

We noted the overall quality of the materials and tested the transmission distance. Most weather stations did not meet the manufacturer’s advertised distance, but one exceeded it. Still, we found the range to be adequate for all models in this lineup.

AcuRite 01007M Atlas Weather Station

For models that record wind direction, we mounted the units outdoors and oriented them to true north using a survey compass. Some users may try using a compass app on a smartphone, but we didn’t have much success with that. The Vantage Pro2 has a truly impressive transmission range, advertised as being up to 1,000 feet. Ours is located just over 550 feet away and we receive a strong signal. This weather station is among the top choices for serious enthusiasts. It allows users to publish their data online for friends and neighbors to see, and it stores historical weather data.

You're paying for quality, but less serious hobbyists may do better with less expensive hardware. In a nutshell, it's a basic device but has just enough data so you can easily plan your day around the weather. We're bombarded with the weather on almost every screen we look at, from smartwatches and phones to computers . But if you want a truly personal look at the weather and a heads up when things are about to go south, a home weather station could be the answer.

Internet Connectivity and Smart Home Features

This battery-operated home weather station claims a Bluetooth transmission range of 330 feet. The sensor should be placed in a sheltered, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. The display can be hung or stand on its own, via the kick-out bar in the back. Basically, it should suit folks looking to monitor temperature and humidity levels in their yard.

The catch is that the fairly basic display isn’t capable of showing data from these sensors, but you can connect the unit to Wi-Fi and check that additional data on the Ambient Weather website. The Observer connects to your home Wi-Fi network too, so it operates wirelessly. The product draws power from a solar panel during the day and a trio of disposable AA batteries at night.

The Best Smart Weather Station Reviews & Buyers Guide of December 2022

That said, functionality is limited, and without any expandability, you may find yourself purchasing a full weather station in the future. We’ve tested the AcuRite 5-in-1 sensor unit and found its accuracy to be acceptable as long as the station wasn’t in direct sun. Direct sunlight caused temperatures to read higher and humidity lower than it was supposed to. The best-in-class color LCD console first introduced with the WS-2000 is also the WS-5000’s console, but with the new sensor suite, the station can send data to the console in just 4.9 seconds.

Ask Google Home to talk to Barbecue Forecast to find out if the weather will be right for outdoor grilling. We are here to assist people in setting up their smart homes with our daily informative blogs. But if you don’t need any pro data and looking for an all-rounder option, I recommend picking Ambient WS-2902C. It is an all-rounder option that will fit everyone’s needs. Information is available nearly instantly in the app and via the web-based portal, with no validation required. It also captures and stores historical information, which aids in the evaluation and discussion of previous readings. There are many factors I have to test out before finalizing the list.

The Netatmo Weather Station is equal parts smart home device and weather station. It’s built from the ground up to integrate with your smart home, with excellent support for Alexa, HomeKit, and IFTTT. It doesn’t include a rain or wind sensor out of the box, but you can add those later if you feel the need. That makes it a good entry point if you’ve never had a home weather station before, as you can decide later if you want or need those additional sensors. We understand that you’re not made of money, and in the end, the price is still going to play a role in your purchasing decision.

smart weather station google home

Get super localized forecasts based on your personal weather station data. The outdoor module runs off of two AAA batteries which Netatmo says supplies enough power for two years. To complete the weather station, Netatmo also sells additional modules. The Atlas weather station’s expandability and the HD touchscreen display console are also noteworthy features. A feature that no other weather station in this price range offers right now. If you previously owned an older AcuRite 5-in-1 model, you will appreciate the upgraded sensors of the Atlas which provide far more accurate readings.

You don’t have the option to install your wind, rain, and temperature sensors in different locations, but the tradeoff is that beginners can get up and running with this station without any trouble. It includes hardware for pole-mounting and for mounting on a post or fence. Home weather stations can help you plan and manage your garden with detailed localized information about rainfall and even warn you when the UV levels are too high for your favorite outdoor activities. “Virtually all homeowners gain a benefit from a home weather station, just for day-to-day planning,” says David St. John, the CTO of WeatherFlow. In « Works with Google » screen, there is the list of all apps that are connected to Google. But it displays only « 3 devices » while there are in reality 4 devices connected..

Home weather station arrays that detect wind and rain should be located where they have unencumbered access to wind and rain, such as in an open area at least 25 feet from structures and trees. The array should be securely mounted to a pole, roof, fence post or other immovable item. To connect an online weather service, the user must have a wireless home network; once connected, data from the user’s weather station can be uploaded and viewed online. A home weather station keeps folks informed about temperature, precipitation, and other aspects of local conditions, but not every model will have the features you need. We put a host of different types to the test to help you choose the best unit. To gain a deeper understanding of the most important home weather station sensors and features, Laukkonen contacted David St. John, the CTO of WeatherFlow.

Some weather stations include smart features and connectivity, like the ability to send your weather data to the internet and access it via an app or integration with your smart home. Others use machine learning and other advanced technologies to provide extremely accurate and localized weather forecasts. None of these features are absolutely necessary, but they can make your weather station much more useful. To see localized weather data and forecasts, only a personal weather station fits the bill. For example, all three of the stations above will link to Weather Underground's network of personal weather stations.

The wireless outdoor sensor transmits updated readings every 16 seconds to the LCD color display console, and it has a 330ft wireless range. The best feature of the WS-2902C is the built-in WiFi connectivity, which enables a straightforward setup with Weather Underground and the Ambient Weather Network. Through either of these networks, you will be able to remotely view real-time and historical conditions from your phone, tablet, or computer. The types, accuracy, and update frequency are the three things to look for in sensors. The most essential basic sensors are wind, rain, temperature, and barometric pressure, and UV, solar radiation, and lightning also quite useful. More accurate sensors are better, and sensors that transmit more often are better.

Smart Weather Station Indoor Outdoor

The Netatmo Weather Station measures indoor pollution levels through a CO2 sensor, sending you alerts so you can air out your home when necessary and live in a healthier indoor environment. In order to do that, they need to know where they are and what the weather conditions are. The machine’s name was the "Ikeya-Sugiyama Weather Machine," and it was invented for Clarke to demonstrate his prediction theory. AIR and SKY connect via long range telemetry to an indoor receiving hub. The hub then publishes data to the cloud via your home WiFi network and/or locally to your iOS or Android device via Bluetooth Low Energy. The hub also broadcasts data locally via UDP for direct raw data access.

smart weather station google home

AcuRite has also rated the Atlas wind vane to work at speeds of up to 160mph and increased reporting frequency to every 10 seconds. Because your weather monitor is intended to measure all sorts of conditions, you'll need an outdoor sensor that can stand up to even the snowiest storms. Look for one that has rugged features, like casing for protection from cyclic erosion or moisture. Also, check on the warranty, as some companies will reimburse you if the product doesn't live up to its promises. Crucially, that sensor data is not only available for display on the slightly rubbish LCD.

Smart Features

We’d purchased and installed this weather station a few months prior to testing the others in this lineup and found that the Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2 lives up to its reputation for accuracy. We mounted it on a permanent tower that we leveled and set in a concrete base to ensure the best results. We also purchased the corresponding hub and data-logging software to create an online weather account. All in all, however, this is a nice little Bluetooth weather station with an impressive enhanced display console. In tests, the Vantage Vue was easy to set up, but it doesn’t come with data logger software or the data collection hub necessary to publish data on an internet weather service. We already had the hub and software for the Vantage Pro2 Davis Instruments weather station , so we used that to connect the Vantage Vue.

The weather station is a device that provides information about the weather. It can be used to record the weather conditions, forecast them, and even predict them. The device can also be used to track the movement of clouds, precipitation, and wind. The best weather station is the one that provides you with the most accurate information.

Usually, I rank number one as the product I love most and perform correctly for me. The time period when the sun is no more than 6 degrees below the horizon at either sunrise or sunset. The horizon should be clearly defined and the brightest stars should be visible under good atmospheric conditions (i.e. no moonlight, or other lights).

Built out of white and black plastic, it felt nice and solid during assembly and held up well under heavy wind and rain during our testing. The main issue with the sensor suite is that you typically don't want to measure temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and rainfall all in the same location. This 5-in-1 station will give you access to the outside temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and rain. If you have a long day coming up, the station can provide a 24-hour forecast. Wireless all-in-one integrated sensor array measures wind speed/direction, temperature, humidity, rainfall, UV and solar radiation.

Ambient Weather WS-2902C WiFi Smart Weather Station

The Weather Station's Indoor Module measures your indoor comfort by providing vital data through its sensors, alerting you when you need to air out your home to bring down its pollution levels. It also includes a powerful API that allows programmers to pull historical and real time data and write custom applications. Ahead, learn what features to look for when choosing a weather station, and discover why the following products are well suited for a variety of weather-reporting tasks. Find out what our hands-on testing revealed, and then weigh the pros and cons to choose the best home weather station for you. That will help you decide when it's time to shelter pets or sensitive plants inside . A properly timed alert could help your plants withstand withering midday heat with a morning spray of leaf-cooling mist.

First, we mounted it to a magnetic automobile roof stand and attached it to the top of our vehicle. In addition to Wi-Fi, the Vantage Vue communicates via Bluetooth with its console, so we drove around and monitored weather conditions in different locations. This is the type of setup used by amateur storm chasers, and if that’s what you’re looking for, it’s tough to beat this weather array. We set up a temporary online account at Weather Underground and encountered no difficulties uploading the data to the web. In sum, we found that this weather station is straightforward to install , produces accurate weather data, and allows users to publish their local weather data online.

If you are an avid weather enthusiast and money is not an issue, we recommend the Davis Instruments Vantage Pro2. If you’re looking for a step up from the WS-2902C, with accuracy that rivals any Davis station, the WS-5000 is the home weather station for you. And even with all the advanced functionality, the WS-5000 is still quite affordable.

Unmatched accuracy, complete record storage and scheduling, and an informative display shield for you to keep track of all your readings. Those with large yards or multiple outdoor spaces to monitor should consider this home weather station from Newentor. With the ability to connect to three different outdoor sensors , it can monitor temperature and weather conditions in three different areas at any given time. Sensors should not be placed in direct sunlight or exposed to precipitation; under a protected roof eave is a good location. The Ambient Weather WS-2000 comes with a full suite of highly accurate sensors, the option to add additional sensors if your needs change over time, and one of the best display consoles available. Premium weather devices can also sample wind conditions, including speed and direction.

Essentially it's a way to extend the reach of your thermostat's sensors and increase indoor comfort. Choose what alerts you'd like to receive based on current weather conditions. Proper siting is the most critical factor in ensuring accurate readings from your sensors. You’ll need to keep a few basic things in mind when choosing a location. La Crosse’s C85845 is a nice station for those just looking for the basics—temperature, humidity, and expected weather. We also like the atomic clock option, so you never have to set the clock again.

We independently research, test, review, and recommend the best products—learn more about our process. Be honest, you don't really care about the numbers when it comes to the weather. What you really want to know is how to dress, or if you need a jacket, or whether to leave your umbrella at home or take it with you. If there's a specific reason you want to know today's forecast, chances are you can directly ask what you'd like to know.

So the actual sensor range can vary, depending on the number of objects that lie between the two points. For example, a weather station with a sensor range of 300 feet may only be able to transmit data up to 100 feet if multiple walls, trees, and hedges lie between the array and the receiving unit. When shopping for one, keep in mind the power source, functions, accuracy, display, and other considerations, all detailed below.

This battery-operated home weather station claims a Bluetooth transmission range of 330 feet. The sensor should be placed in a sheltered, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight. The display can be hung or stand on its own, via the kick-out bar in the back. Basically, it should suit folks looking to monitor temperature and humidity levels in their yard.

The wind and temperature sensors aren't separate, which isn't ideal, but this is an expandable system. The AcuRite Atlas 01001M stands out in a crowded field thanks to its high-definition liquid-crystal display . Most so-called color displays for weather stations make use of static color stickers that act as backgrounds to basic clock-radio-style LCD numbers and graphics. Instead, the Atlas features a beautiful high-definition display with bright colors, automatic dimming, and great viewing angles. The unit can connect to your Wi-Fi network and send data to Weather Underground, which allows you to check the sensors and see a customized weather forecast on the Weather Underground app. A single sensor package houses all the Tempest sensors, so the device is really easy to install and get going.

The average sensor range is about 100 feet, but some models can deliver accurate readings from 300 feet or even 1,000 feet away. The Sainlogic Weather Station accurately monitors weather conditions and transmits data using Bluetooth technology. While this weather station resembles models that feature Wi-Fi capability, the Sainlogic will not connect to a home network, so data cannot be uploaded to an online weather service. This rugged system can withstand virtually any environment and report with great accuracy. The solar-powered wireless home weather station updates every 2.5 seconds to provide precise, up-to-date weather information. It measures both indoor and outdoor temperature as well as humidity, barometric pressure, wind, rain, dew point, heat index, and wind chill.

How to Prepare for a Home Inspection

Perform a Phase I fireplace and chimney inspection. Determine the water quality, potability or reliability of the water supply or source. Toilets that were damaged, had loose connections to the floor, were leaking, or had tank components that did not operate.

home inspection procedure

Inspect the interior of chimneys or flues, fire doors or screens, seals or gaskets, or mantels. Activate any electrical systems or branch circuits that are not energized. Measure or determine the amperage or voltage of the main service equipment, if not visibly labeled.

The seller denies the buyer’s requests

It's a full home inspection for the seller to better understand the condition of their home prior to the buyer's own inspection. Some properties have volunteered to participate in testing a new inspection process. The standards focus on resident homes and serious health and/or safety issues like lead-based paint hazards and mold. Before finalizing the standards, HUD is getting feedback to find out what works and what doesn’t.

This process happens before or in the same timeframe as the appraisal. If you live in a multifamily housing property, the property will also have regular Management and Occupancy Reviews . These are done by a Project-Based Contract Administrator .

Pool and spa inspection

In some cases, the buyer may walk away from the purchase if the home inspection reveals more issues than they’re willing to deal with. ASHI provides a Standard of Practice that guides inspectors during a home inspection as they address everything from the exterior to the plumbing system. Home inspectors focus on health, safety, or major mechanical issues. You’re buying a house, you don’t want surprises.

Contact your local public housing agency for changes that may be in place due to the pandemic. After the inspection, you will have a much clearer understanding of the property you are about to purchase. If you are already a homeowner, a home inspection may be used to identify upcoming problems and to learn preventive measures, which might help to avoid costly future repairs. The purchase of a home is probably the largest single investment you will ever make.

A mortgage lender sets up an appraisal, and the appraiser will use various valuation methods, including comparable home prices, size, and quality of the home, to assess its value. A home inspector only evaluates the home's condition for overall safety or potential trouble spots, like a leaking roof, peeling paint, or anything not up to the local building code. A qualified home inspector assesses the property's condition, including its heating and cooling systems, plumbing, electrical work, water, and sewage, as well as some fire and safety issues. In addition, the home inspector will look for evidence of insect, water, fire damage, or any other issue that may affect the property's value.

If they don’t know about an issue, they can’t help or fix it.

Instead, dig into the severity of the issues to determine if there are any deal breakers that would prevent you from moving forward with the sale.

Most buyers aren’t expecting complete perfection; they just want to know that there are no heavy burdens waiting for them. It’s common for the home inspector to note a few minor issues, but most of the time, if there’s something serious to detect you’ve already figured it out on your own.

home inspection procedure

Home inspections are usually conducted by a home inspector who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The inspector prepares and delivers to the client a written report of findings. The client then uses the knowledge gained to make informed decisions about their pending real estate purchase. The home inspector describes the condition of the home at the time of inspection but does not guarantee future condition, efficiency, or life expectancy of systems or components.

You should start preparing for a professional inspection when you initially tour the home, before making an offer. This will give you an idea if there are any areas you want the inspector to pay special attention to. A good inspector will address these issues in the report you pay for.

Enter or access any area that may, in the inspector's opinion, be unsafe. The service life expectancy of any component or system. An inspection does not include items not permanently installed. An inspection will not deal with aesthetic concerns, or what could be deemed matters of taste, cosmetic defects, etc. Correct any serious health or safety defects at once. Include the initial response from your building management and/or PHA or PBCA from when you reported the issue.

Determine the exact flow rate, volume, pressure, temperature or adequacy of the water supply. Identify the size, spacing, span or location or determine the adequacy of foundation bolting, bracing, joists, joist spans or support systems. Enter any crawlspace that is not readily accessible, or where entry could cause damage or pose a hazard to the inspector. Inspect or operate screens, storm windows, shutters, awnings, fences, outbuildings, or exterior accent lighting. The general structure of the roof from the readily accessible panels, doors or stairs.

Sometimes cold or heat can warp normally functional doors and lead to problems, so be sure to check all doors, including those you don’t use very often. In addition to checking the interior functioning of your home, the inspector is also going to be looking at the exterior, including siding, trims, and caulking around windows and doors. You’ll want to leave areas around your home clear of plant growth, trash cans, and stored items so they can get an unimpeded look. A buyer arranges and pays for a home inspection and—depending on its findings—may choose to move on to closing, renegotiate the sale price, request repairs, or cancel the sales contract.

Aging-in-Place Inspection Checklist

If the buyer requests major repairs, they may also ask for a reinspection with the original inspector to verify that the original problem identified has been remedied. But as a seller, you may be just as nervous than the buyer. After all, it’s your house that’s being inspected, and it will be up to you to either make the repairs, offer credits or concessions, or refuse and potentially lose the sale. In May 2001, Massachusetts became the first state to recognize the potential conflict of interest when real estate agents selling a home also refer or recommend the home inspector to the potential buyer. As a result, the real estate licensing law in Massachusetts was amended[non-primary source needed] to prohibit listing real estate agents from directly referring home inspectors. The law also prohibits listing agents from giving out a "short" name list of inspectors.

OAHI, formed by a private member's Bill in the Provincial Assembly, has the right in law to award the R.H.I. designation to anyone on its membership register. The R.H.I. designation, however, is a reserved designation, overseen by OAHI under the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors Act, 1994. This Act allows OAHI to award members who have passed and maintained strict criteria set out in their membership bylaws and who operate within Ontario.
