The Rise of Smart Home Thermostats with Advanced Sensors
SwitchBot, a leading innovator in smart home accessories, has introduced two remarkable indoor air quality monitors at IFA today. The SwitchBot Meter Pro and the SwitchBot Meter Pro (CO2 Monitor) come equipped with Swiss-made Sensirion sensors that measure indoor temperature and humidity every four seconds. With an accuracy of +/- 0.36 Fahrenheit (0.2 degrees Celsius) and +/- 2% relative humidity, these monitors offer precise environmental data.
Key Features of SwitchBot's Indoor Air Quality Monitors
- The SwitchBot Meter Pro (CO2 Monitor) also reads carbon dioxide levels, with flexible settings for battery or charger operation.
- Both devices display real-time data on LCD screens, showing the date and time for easy monitoring.
- Connectivity requires a SwitchBot Hub 2 or a SwitchBot Hub Mini Matter Enabled to access outdoor temperature and weather forecasts.
- Users can personalize their comfort levels and receive alerts through alarms and notifications.
Integration with Smart Home Devices
The new monitors can trigger automations when environmental parameters exceed user-defined limits, potentially activating smart appliances like the SwitchBot Circulator Fan or the SwitchBot Evaporative Humidifier. Furthermore, compatibility extends to popular platforms including Alexa, Google Home, Siri Shortcuts, IFTTT, and Samsung SmartThings. With Matter support from the latest hubs, integration within smart homes becomes seamless.
Availability and Pricing
The SwitchBot Meter Pro is currently priced at $29.99 in the U.S., Canada, U.K., and E.U., while the sophisticated SwitchBot Meter Pro (CO2 Monitor) is available for $69.99. Pricing details for Canada are awaited.
