Finally a Cost Effective CO2 Meter that Works!

[@Filteixeira]

Thank you for your video. I was wondering if you're using this with the Switchbot hub or just as a standalone device or even connected to something else.

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

Hi, yes I have it connected to the Switchbot Hub 2 at the moment! It works fine as a stand alone device too!

For me is expensive. For this price you can buy a Rpi board. In my case, I prefer screen less ones. Greetings

@@galdakaMusicHi there, yes there are cheaper ways of measuring CO2 but most in a package like this are way more expensive.

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

@@galdakaMusic you can build one yourself if you prefer, I have a video showing how. Would only cost about US $20

Hey Simon, has it been integrated into home assistant yet? also, do i need a switchbot hub to connect it to HA? Thank for the video!!!

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

@@plasticpippo201 hi there! No I don't think that it is integrated yet :( you shouldn't need the hub if you have a Bluetooth proxy or dongle

[@plasticpippo201]

@simonsayshomeassistant thanks for your reply! Much appreciated

Can you move around the numbers on the display? Would like to have both indoor/outdoor temp/humidity displayed and CO2.

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

It seems that you can only display 1 temperature at a time

[@DWestnik77]

So, no comparison to known brands?

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

I have a few more co2 sensors on the way and then I will do a comparison

Have you discovered this in Home Assistant as a Bluetooth device? Mine discovers as a light strip which is odd.

[@trevorkirchbaum7842]

Disregard. They fixed the with the release today 👍

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

Yes, I believe that they are still working on this integration, hopefully it will come soon!

In the video I see that CO2 is still not exposed via Matter in HomeKit App ? But current Matter standards support it right ?

[@simonsayshomeassistant]

Yes, currently the CO2 is not passed through to Home Assistant via Matter, let's hope this is available soon!
