In today’s episode I am showcasing the Third Reality Temperature & Humidity Sensor. This innovative sensor is yet another device in ever growing line of Third Reality Zigbee sensors that impresses me with its performance and affordability.

I received and update from SmartThings about their Edge Driver program. SmartThings has stated that they intend to terminate the Groovy IDE interface effective on September 30, 2022. Quoting from the email, “On September 30, 2022, Groovy device DTHs, SmartApps built on Groovy, and the legacy developer IDE will be removed from the SmartThings platform and will no longer be supported. This means that devices and automations previously using Groovy will now exclusively operate with our latest hub and cloud technology.” 🟠 Current Edge Drivers List: https://tinyurl.com/bf6p4u4e 🔵 TAustin’s VEdge Creator: https://tinyurl.com/3p3kjdj5 🟢 Link to Brian's Automate Your Life Video: https://tinyurl.com/3a5t7mp2 🟡 Subscribe: www.youtube.com/c/BudsSmartHome 🔴 Buds Smart Home Website: https://www.budshomeautomation.com 🔵 Source Info and Deals on Aeotec and SmartThings compatible devices: 🛒- Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/budssmarthome 🟢 Amazon Links for Aeotec/SmartThings Devices: 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Hub: https://amzn.to/3hG653a 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Motion Sensor: https://amzn.to/3AklqOt 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Door Sensor: https://amzn.to/3hI48n2 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Water Leak Sensor: https://amzn.to/3klfHC8 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Camera: https://amzn.to/2XEjC4x 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Smart Plug: https://amzn.to/3lBpqE4 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Button: https://amzn.to/3kfDBiC 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Range Extender: https://amzn.to/3hDwLSn 🟠 How to support Bud's Smart Home Automation: 🛒 - Shop my Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/budssmarthome 💳 - Buy me a Coffee via PayPal: https://paypal.me/BudsHomeAutomation 🔵 Amazon Deals! 🛒 - Try Amazon Prime for FREE: https://amzn.to/2ZY8pN3 🛒 - Try Audible for Free : https://amzn.to/3oAVVW5 🛒 - Amazon Music - 90 Days for FREE: https://amzn.to/2WM2klA 🟡 Music Selections used in this video include 🎵 - Background Music - "Above All" by Quincas Moreira 🎵 - Exit Music – “World_Map” by Jason Farnham AMAZON ASSOCIATE DISCLAIMER: The links in this description are affiliate links.

My Zemismart blind stopped working after three months. I’m unsure if I contributed to the battery’s demise or if I was just a defective battery. At one point I had place the blind on solar power and subsequently found that the battery had fully discharge. After I recharged the battery, the charge would only last about one week. Eventually the battery would not accept a charge so motor stopped working all together. I contacted Zemismart and they graciously agreed to send me a replacement tubular motor. They told me that this was an improved version of the motor. By watching today's episode you will discover how to replace a tubular motor. 🟠 The Product Featured in Today's Episode: 🛒- Blindsmart (Zemismart) Motor & Remote: https://amzn.to/3JRZRKw 🛒- Blindsmart (Zemismart) Motor, Remote & Solar: https://amzn.to/3SLuJQV 🛒- Blindsmart (Zemismart) Motor Only: https://amzn.to/3AhsGgo 🟡 Subscribe: www.youtube.com/c/BudsSmartHome 🔴 Buds Smart Home Website: https://www.budshomeautomation.com 🔵 Source Info and Deals on Aeotec and SmartThings compatible devices: 🛒- Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/budssmarthome 🟢 Amazon Links for Aeotec/SmartThings Devices: 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Hub: https://amzn.to/3hG653a 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Motion Sensor: https://amzn.to/3AklqOt 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Door Sensor: https://amzn.to/3hI48n2 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Water Leak Sensor: https://amzn.to/3klfHC8 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Camera: https://amzn.to/2XEjC4x 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Smart Plug: https://amzn.to/3lBpqE4 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Button: https://amzn.to/3kfDBiC 🛒- Aeotec/SmartThings Range Extender: https://amzn.to/3hDwLSn 🟠 How to support Bud's Smart Home Automation: 🛒 - Shop my Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/budssmarthome 💳 - Buy me a Coffee via PayPal: https://paypal.me/BudsHomeAutomation 🔵 Amazon Deals! 🛒 - Try Amazon Prime for FREE: https://amzn.to/2ZY8pN3 🛒 - Try Audible for Free : https://amzn.to/3oAVVW5 🛒 - Amazon Music - 90 Days for FREE: https://amzn.to/2WM2klA 🟡 Music Selections used in this video include 🎵 - Background Music - "Above All" by Quincas Moreira 🎵 - Exit Music – “World_Map” by Jason Farnham AMAZON ASSOCIATE DISCLAIMER: The links in this description are affiliate links.
