Questions & Answers

are the differences nce between the smart sensor and the room sensor?

This is due to the fact that WiFi is not used by smart and room sensors. The thermostat is controlled by an RF connection. According to company literature, smart sendors last for 45' while smartphones last for less than a year. In the home, you are likely to hear a door slamming 45' away. By using an external sensor, the sensor signal can transmit farther in range, depending on the material (walls or whatever) as well as how large the sensor is. In my opinion, this smart sensor responds much faster to your voice commands, i.e., within 5 seconds rather than 7 or 10 seconds as compared to a room sensor. A few minutes. (And yes, the battery can last much longer than 5 hours). 1 year)

What difference has been made using the old sensor (come with Ecobee 3) alongside d both the old sensor (came with Ecobee 3) and this new one and noticed a difference? Can you tell me why being real world use is u r real world use?

Smart and room sensors are both in my home, one is smart and the other room sensor. There is a big difference inOccupancy sensor when used under control than on Follow Me setup. If used alone smart sensor, this setup would have great results. Considering a room sensor, the battery life of smart sensors will be similar, given their prices and capacities of the smart sensor CR2477 vs CR2032.

Does this model work ecobee3 lite?

As for the firmware update, it required me to push a push button. After this issue was resolved, I was able to go back and synchronize without any issues with my computer. Now I am working great, I am doing a lot of work!!

What do we need more sensors to n each bedroom or 1 is enough?

I don't know. It depends. In this house, we do not have many bedrooms, since we only use one each when I and my wife are there. The youngest of our two children visits about once a month and resides in one of the bedrooms while on vacation a couple of weeks per year. As well as a sensor in the bedroom, a control in that area also exists. Due to that sensor's role in "sleep," it only pays attention to it during the night in general. All the bedrooms at your house should have sensors if you keep them every day. Furthermore, you can figure the other rooms generally have similar temperatures, so your sensor(s) do not matter what the room temp is in yours is.

I love Ecobee but aren't fond of new Sensors
3/5

My Ecobee thermostat and the original sensor have only been here since almost a year ago. They are wonderful. There is a great deal of functionality in this feature, and I find it very easy to create a username and access the site using an app for iOS devices. Since there is room sensors installed in the middle of this sensor cluster, the program is better since one-sixth of the network is available. Florida is a very hot state, and the zone system exists. A few months ago, I purchased two of the new sensors. There are six sensors I bought in the series with the last generation and only one has to be changed every six weeks. So, the last generation sensors with over eight batteries had to be changed after only six weeks. The issue of my son's tuitions is very troubling to me. The battery life was not as good (it was probably because I am using this one in a high-performance vehicle). Using a CR2477 battery for a small traffic area is stupid regardless of the traffic tie. However, I had trouble finding the 2477s and I had to order online, so I had to order ones at another place. This would make everything seem far more practicable, but not practical. For those systems still using the 2032 protocol, even if they do not obtain the same service life as 2477, another option might have been better. It would have been ideal if this design incorporated easy replacement. This was not an opportunity I wanted to miss.

We warn you against this! Do not purchase it
3/5

TRY TIL THE GARBAGE IS FIXED. This SmartSensor2 device causes its battery to be discharged like a million times. The two-pack got contaminated after two days, which was before they came online. After the battery was replaced a second time, it began to die. It took me a month to replace the battery on one of the sensors three times. One of these sensors was replaced in just two months due to overheating. It was one of those GARBAGE appliances that didn't have a problem, and it could go on for at least a year without battery problems, so you shouldn't need to buy another battery as it never had a problem, either. Shame on you Ecobee.

Batteries should be reported batteries Die Quickly
3/5

It has been reported by many people that these new Smart Sensors kill their batteries so quickly. Upon switching from paired thermostat to home, the batteries in my two sensors died within three days of buying them. This is what many people have reported when upgrading to Ecobee's most recent smart sensor. When I contacted Ecobee, my Smart Sensors were diagnosed as defective after I filed a complaint with the manufacturer. However, Ecobee is currently unable to fulfill the warranty claim.

Customer service was terrible
3/5

A smart sensor reported that the battery lasted exactly six days after the sensors were installed. When I looked at the battery and assumed that the battery was bad, I went to the store and bought 4 more batteries. After replacing the battery, the same sensor reported that it was going to die within 2 days. For questions or suggestions, please email ecobee support. Apparently, I was not even read an issue after I received a canned response on how to connect a sensor. After I called, a representative hung up. The generic reply I received again after I had emailed stated that she was pregnant. It will work if it works. For those who wish to purchase and request support, I suggest going elsewhere. Due to moving into a rental property, I also bought the thermostat on Prime Day rather than a Nest product. In regards to environmentally friendly services, Bezos should be ashamed because they gave customers an unsatisfactory experience. Amazon rectified the situation ( refunded the money). It's best for now to stick with what works.

The data captured by sensors is very effective and comparable to other sensors
5/5

Basically, you need to know the basic principles. If you install Ecobee, your inside temperature will just be visible to the Ecobee thermostat, not just the temperature on your thermostat's IR sensor. This tells Ecobee what your thermostat will do if you keep it running for hours without an air conditioner. It sounds simple, right? It is amazing how they behave in real life. I have just 1,192 likes on my page. Home is roughly 1,700 square feet on a ranch level. As a rule of thumb, when my house outside is hot, the "right" 1/3 of my residence stays about 5 degrees warmer than when my home was occupied indoors. When I had added two more sensors to that part of the house one hour later, the house stayed the same temperature as Take a look at the upload photo.

Update: Our air must be controlled with the register dampener since it must be opened or closed before the register reaches its appropriate temperature based upon the temperature from each air flow. In close proximity to a fan, registers give you more air flow. Changing the flow of your sensors is a good idea - I did this few times before. You register more or less once every couple of months. All sensors in my home measure around 1. 3 degrees Fahrenheit. The ability to increase the temperature level from 71 to 73 as a result of getting it right also gave me greater comfort.

A solid purchase for the money
5/5

It was nice to find that these units are smaller than expected. There is a category for every matchbook in each area. You ought to hire the best devices if they perform their jobs without being noticed. After opening the box, I found it took longer to connect the units to the Ecobee app than to pair the units together. You just need to pull a battery tab, scan the QR code, select some settings, and get started. When pairing units, it is best to let them reach room temperature before proceeding. It didn't feel like 74 degrees in the air in my home when I arrived and both units rated 85F even though there was no air conditioning. The AC cycled for longer than was necessary initially. Having purchased these when my 2,300 square foot house was larger made sense. I now find more heat/cool to these appliances. Most of the downstairs bedrooms tend to differ from the upstairs rooms. It is 6 degrees cooler than the main floor.
