My family grows cranberries, and during the spring, we need to know the air temperature on the bogs so we know when there is a frost. We protect the budding vines by running our sprinkler systems when the temperature drops below 35 degrees. Previously, we would go to our pump houses and check the temperature gauge there, usually in the middle of the night. We have six, and they are spread out. We bought one of these YoLinks to test how well they work. We placed the sensor out in the middle of one of the bogs (Just an FYI, cranberries do NOT grow in water) a good distance from the house, and it works great. It reads the same temperature that the sensor that controls our sprinklers reads, and it is great to be able to open the app and see what the temperature is. We will be purchasing more for the other bogs.

I needed something to monitor the glycol temperature and my boiler system. This is a very easy set up easy to use app and it works as well as I had expected. You just have to keep in mind in order for the battery to last as long as it does, it does not give you Constant real time temperature readings. It just waits for fluctuations before Checking. You can set it to monitor every five minutes 10 minutes half hour pretty much whatever you would like but if the temperature is a 180° for a half an hour, it will not report a change because it didn’t change. That’s how it saves battery Life Other than that it is a fantastic product.

I recently purchased the YoLink Weatherproof Fluid, Air, Surface Extreme High/Low Temperature Sensor with Probe, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my decision! This sensor has exceeded my expectations in every way. First off, the installation was a breeze. The instructions were clear, and within minutes, I had it set up and running. The weatherproof design is a game-changer, allowing me to use it outdoors without worrying about the elements. What truly impresses me is the accuracy of the readings. Whether I'm monitoring the temperature of my outdoor equipment or checking the conditions in my greenhouse, this sensor provides real-time data that I can trust. The extreme high and low-temperature range is perfect for my needs, and the probe is incredibly sensitive, ensuring I get precise measurements every time. The YoLink app is user-friendly and allows me to monitor temperatures from anywhere. I love receiving alerts on my phone when temperatures reach critical levels, giving me peace of mind. Overall, I highly recommend the YoLink Weatherproof Temperature Sensor to anyone in need of a reliable and accurate temperature monitoring solution. It’s a fantastic investment that has made my life easier and more efficient!

I purchased this about 18 months ago to monitor water temperature of our (unheated) pool and it's worked flawlessly. The app is basic, but easy to setup and configure notifications. The original battery still shows 75% capacity after 18 months of continuous use. The case is left out in the rain and full southern California sun. The Homebridge-YoLink plugin has also worked perfectly — allowing easy review of the temperature, as well as triggering automations in Apple HomeKit.

Works perfectly, battery life is great. Left outside and holds up to all elements of weather. Would recommend!

I use these in a couple of different ways and they have been extremely useful. For my pool and hot tub, I mount the sensor under the skimmer cover and let the probe dangle into the water. That lets me see the water temperature at a glance, and I can set alerts so when I am heating the hot tub, I get notified when it reaches the temperature I want. The sensors are not fully immersed, but they have held up well to outdoor exposure. I did have one instance where water got inside a sensor, but after cleaning it out, it started working again without issue. I also use one in my pool filter shed with the probe attached directly to the filter motor. After having a pump fail to prime once and overheat, this has been a great safeguard. I now get an alert if the motor temperature goes too high, giving me time to shut it down before damage occurs. For monitoring temperature and getting timely alerts, these have been very effective and reliable for my use cases.

This temperature monitoring system software failed when our deep freezer compressor stopped working. The system sent one high temp alarm notification at 5 degrees and never sent another notice that the temperature continued to raise to 70+ degrees. Over 7 days the freezer temp increased and the software shows all the temperatures logged by the sensor on the app, but no further notification was sent to me letting me know of the continued temperature raise. This is the only reason we purchased this system because of the alert system, unfortunately I was not aware it is not programmed to alert you after one alert is sent. The entire freezer contents around $1,000 worth of food were found because we opened the door to remove food and found the contents to be completely thawed, spoiled and had to be disposed of. I notified the company regarding this software/equipment problem, and they said this is how their equipment works, and the alarm software and equipment worked properly. There was NO compensation for the food loss and was told "Sorry" when I contacted the company letting them know of this equipment and software failure. I requested some food loss reimbursement since I have all the logs showing the system was aware of the temperatures and I was informed if they covered food loss for everyone they would be out of business. That says the company knows they have a problem with their products failing and still are happy to sell them with the loss being placed on you. I DO NOT recommend this product. I would NEVER use this product ever again and have replaced my system with a ThermoWorks Node product.

We have all metal buildings that are separate. Internet in one building and needed the bathroom temperature to read over internet from the other building. It is very difficult to find something that measures temps that have an ethernet connection. They talk about the range of the base and how well it goes through walls. It is amazing. Cell phones have a hard time just getting out of 1 building with metal and this thing reads out of it and through another closed metal building with no signal loss! It is very nice to set alarms that go to your phone and the set up is way to easy. Download app, scan qr from bottom of base to app, then scan your device you are adding to base with qr and you are done. The device added uses 2 aa batteries that they say will last 2 years! I have to say so far i am blown away and have never seen anything like it. Would i recommend this.. YES! My HVAC guys cant even believe it.

Sensor and hub work brilliantly, easy setup, excellent range and battery life. Integrates with home assistant easily and YoLink app works well. Unfortunately US and UK devices are incompatible, which wasn't mentioned before purchase, so importing YoLink from Amazon US is best avoided. Sadly it appears a UK/EU version of the weatherproof temperature sensor isn't available yet.
