Michael demonstrates the signal from an IKEA Rodret switch passing through an IKEA Vindstyrka Air Quality meter, through a Zigbee wall socket and finally to the IoT Portal Hub giving a total range of about 130 meters! An excellent demonstration of how mesh networking can boost your ZigBee network.

Control your heating remotely with the IoT Portal Hub. Use the app to change the thermostat temperature and switch the heating on and off. Control your individual room radiator valve temperatures via your phone. Switch the heating on and off within the property using up to 3 buttons - switch between set temperature and frost mode. With the Sonoff button switch between timer, heat and frost modes. The ZigBee relay fits perfectly in a Main/Baxi boiler PCB housing. We recommend the Sonoff SNZB-02P temperature and humidity sensor for monitoring and controlling the set temperature. This wireless sensor can be moved...
