What is it?

This is a compact wireless soil moisture sensor, supports working in Zigbee networks. (Zigbee2mqtt open source project, ZHA open source project). The device has an industrial look, at least, I wanted to achieve this. The sensor has very good energy efficiency. Powered by CC2530 chip (Zigbee). The device comes with pre-installed open source software.

Cool sensor

The sensors arrived very well packed, and without any damage. It took a bit long for them to get shipped, but still arrived in a very reasonable timeframe.
Setup was pretty painless - it might do with a bit better documentation (leaflet with instructions, marking the buttons, and noting somewhere how often the measurements are made), but shipped as is it was still very easy to figure it out and link to my Zigbee network.
It's supported out of the box by zigbee2mqtt so no issues there, software wise it was all very smooth.

One improvement I could note would be adding an option for a white enclosure, as right now the sensor can get a hotter than the ambient air when exposed to sunlight.

As is, I still think this is the best sensor available for this purpose.
