What Govee thermo-hygrometer is right for you.

Comparing the Govee H5074, H5075, and H5100 thermo-hygrometers each has their strengths what one is right for you?

Update, recent testing promoted by a comment, shows that the H5074 does not update via wifi even when paired with a distributed gateway, so its primarily of use for automation or data when your within range. Below is my current understanding of the differences: H5074 = Automation only. (slower update cycle & coin sell battery) H5100 + wifi gateway = data while away from home. only (AAA Batteries) H5075 + wifi gateway = Automation & Data while away from home + Display (AAA batteries)

What is the model of the gateway you use to connect the H5075 thermometer y el h5100 please i need to know please ?

[@ecuadorecuatoriano1347]

what is the better option for poultry?

[@ecuadorecuatoriano1347]

inkbird is a good opcion?

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

@@ecuadorecuatoriano1347 I use the h5151 Govee gateway

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

@@ecuadorecuatoriano1347 if All you want is to view the temp remotely then the h5100 if you would like a display in the coop and or be able to trigger other Govee devices (lights or heaters). Then go with the 5075

Thanks for showing us all of this about Govee devices. I really think they should sponsor you, because if I watched your type of videos, then I would have bought the Govee devices sooner.

@@PoeLemic thanks! Glad the were helpful.

Thanks for the review ... I was wavering between the H5074 and H5075 for a 3D Printer Filament drybox. I went with the H5075 mostly due to the fact that I have rechargeable 2A and 3A batteries, but when that coin battery craps out, I'm sure it will be tough to find (and not cheap).

Thank you know i know what to get for my cigars

Hi friend, thanx for this. Quick question. Why do thermometers take a ton of time to settle to the current temperature? I just got Govee 5075 and 5079. Put batteries and started them up. Bith shoeed initial Room temperature at 28 C. Room was like 24.8 based on a Xiaomi thermotere i got. It took like 10 minutes for the Govees to drop down and settle to showing 24.8 Why cant i have a quick temp reading. So if i go outside where temp is 40 C will it take 10 minutes to shoe that?

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

My guess is that it’s a combination of where the sensors are located (inside the case) the materials the sensors are attached to and surrounded by and the limited air flow through the case. Until the materials around the sensors acclimate to the ambient air temperature they will be influencing the readings.

Do you have any idea what the difference is between the h5104 and h5075?

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

I’ve no personal experience with the h5104 but from the spec sheet it 2x as heavy and has a longer blue tooth range. The h5104 also has a white face on the display.

[@AwesomesMan]

@@WhisperingWildMarketFarm Thank you the reply back! Good catch on the bluetooth distance! I ended up ordering one of each to compare. The 5104 is noticeably heavier. It also has a battery status on the screen. However what I like about the H5075 is that the screen is a little bit receded into the shell and in my mind is better protected. While the H5104 screen is flat with the shell. I also prefer the lighter weight of the H5075 and don't have to worry about it if it shakes around the tupperdor. Both devices worked effortlessly with the mobile app and both show their battery status in the app. They're for the most part identical.

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

Thank you for the info! Have you noticed any difference with the bluetooth range or connection reliability?

Does it work in the freezer?

[@WhisperingWildMarketFarm]

I’ve used the h5100 in freezers and for the most part they worked fine. They are not sealed in any way and Govee officially does it support them for use in freezers further the alarms can’t be set lower than -4 f so the alarm functions are problematic. Inkbird makes two similar units that are advertised for freezers I’ve not had time to test them yet but they look promising

Yes
