Testing new Sonoff SNZB-02P temperature and humidity sensor

It’s been more than two weeks since I published any articles, due to summer vacation… the break was good. Now we are already at the beginning of September and for this start of the school year I am offering you a new Sonoff SNZB-02P temperature and humidity sensor module working with a Silabs EFR32MG22 chip.

If you have read the latest articles on Sonoff brand products you have been able to realize the the move upmarket of the brand, for this product it is even more blatant if we look at it compare with our big brother the Sonoff SNZB-02

The SONOFF SNZB-02P temperature and humidity sensor informs you of the temperature and humidity.

SONOFF - ZIGBEE 3.0 TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SENSOR WITH BRACKET - SNZB-02P

By Sonoff

The SONOFF SNZB-02P temperature and humidity sensor informs you of the temperature and humidity.

you will also find it at the same price directly at Itead

With this new Sonoff temperature and humidity sensor SNZB-02P, the quality is very close to the Chinese products of the Aqara brand, by signing its Zigbee products with the famous bright orange.

This sensor comes with a small metal shell bright orange shot-blasted that you can easily attach to the wall, and which will magnetically accommodate the SNZB-02P. I must say that it is very successful.

In the photos below you can see the size and manufacturing quality of the module. With a pairing button and an opening for the temperature/humidity probe.

You can easily attach the module to the wall either by double sided or by screwing.

The magnetic support works correctly, however the module does not center itself even if you move it too far from the support.

Surprisingly, the module integrates a CR2477 battery which is quite rare in use but which allows Sonoff to guarantee the 4-year operating life just that?

Integration in Zigbee2mqtt (ha and jeedom)

The integration into Z2M is done without problems and the module is well recognized and already included in the Z2M base, it’s a good thing but that doesn’t surprise me. Sonoff is still renowned.

All information appears correctly. Don’t worry about the battery it works too only I took the capture too quickly after integration.

Zigbee2Mqtt allows you to report 6 data:

  1. battery level
  2. temperature reading
  3. humidity reading
  4. empty battery indication
  5. battery voltage
  6. the quality of the mesh link

Comparisons of measurements from SNZB-02P

I wanted to test and compare the measurements of the Sonoff SNZB-02P to the SNZB-02D module et Xiaomi Aqara VOCKQJK11LM

By looking at the animated gif below you will see that the data from SNZB-02D and SNZB-02P are almost similar. But there is a difference in humidity reading with the Xiaomi. It will probably be necessary to calibrate the sonoffs, the difference in humidity is only 5%.

Conclusion

The evolution of Sonoff modules worth the detour and this temperature and humidity controller is no exception to the rule. You can go ahead and buy it currently available on the platforms Domadoo and Itead.
