Hi all,

I'm looking for zigbee temp and humidity sensors that work with HA, are pretty accurate and either are mains powered or have use a battery that can be recharged e.g. AA or AAA.

I like the Sonoff SNZB-02D, but they use disposable coin cell batteries.

One I found that looks like it might fulfill these criteria is

But they're kinda spendy. Anyone have any recommendations?

I have a few of these: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/TH02Z.html#tuya-th02z

They're fine with rechargeable aaa batteries.

I put one outside, slightly under the roof, and after about a year it got damaged somehow. It's showing significantly off temperature and humidity, even after being inside for months after that.

So maybe not good for outside weather.
