Absolutely. With the Watermeterkit, you can track your water consumption by the hour, day, month, and year and compare it in clear charts.
Yes. The updated hardware is prepared for Thread/OpenThread. For normal use, WiFi remains the standard and recommended installation. Only use Thread/OpenThread when you have matching firmware, a Thread border router and Home Assistant configuration.
No. Thread uses the same 2.4 GHz radio technology as Zigbee, but it is a different protocol. You do not pair the WaterMeterKit V3 as a Zigbee device.
Certainly! The Watermeterkit provides real-time insight into your water consumption, allowing you to see how much water you use in daily activities directly.
The Watermeterkit works seamlessly with Home Assistant. You can monitor and manage your water consumption through this popular smarthome software.
No, the installation is designed to be simple. The included instructions will guide you step by step.
The WaterMeterKit V3 is prepared for Thread/OpenThread, but it is used via WiFi by default. OpenThread is mainly intended for users who deliberately use a Thread network and install firmware intended for that setup.
Yes. For a Thread network you need a Thread border router that connects your Thread network to your regular network and Home Assistant. Without such a Thread network, use the WaterMeterKit V3 via WiFi.
