Hey,
does anyone know if there’s already support for the new Xiaomi MiaoMiaoCe Thermometer? If not, is it possible and/or already in Progress?

Here’s a Link to the device: https://www.ebay.de/i/323553112643?chn=ps&ul_ref=https%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F707-134425-41852-0%252F2%253Fmpre%253Dhttps%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.ebay.de%25252Fi%25252F323553112643%25253Fchn%25253Dps%2526itemid%253D323553112643%2526targetid%253D529282737537%2526device%253Dm%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526googleloc%253D9044827%2526poi%253D%2526campaignid%253D1578513756%2526adgroupid%253D57060575182%2526rlsatarget%253Dpla-529282737537%2526abcId%253D1139676%2526merchantid%253D7364532%2526gclid%253DCj0KCQiAxNnfBRDwARIsAJlH29DYM3xm4LY0n6-Jf1kiYd_wfCzYwgLt-qkWNaH8hk3AmElPq8IZ43UaAh2DEALw_wcB%2526srcrot%253D707-134425-41852-0%2526rvr_id%253D1751867964629%2526rvr_ts%253D3d236c221670ac8003c08239ffe228ee

not sure what protocol is uses (I found some reference for RF 2.4GHz… most likely ZigBee). Do some more research on its connectivity options.

I like their statement though !!! (in the product pdf from their official website…)

I should post this one on http://www.engrish.com/

I am really sorry for the spam, but this is hilarious … @vzorglub & @rlkoshak : this is reddit material :wink:

“Performance Failure” technical table with a reference to a “chaotic display” ! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

:smiley: at least the documentation is entertaining.

I saw that some of the homeassistant guys are fiddling with this devices via bluetooth dongles.

From what I found, it is using ZigBee, so in theory, you should be able to use the ZigBee Binding from here: Zigbee binding

I saw some references to ZigBee in relation with this unit… nothing concrete, so I don’t post a link. If I find some document, I will upload it.

But that would require additional ZigBee Receiving/Sending hardware as well?

7

Of course you would need a USB Dongle. Check that thread for compatible models

That wouldn’t be a valid solution for my case. I already have a bunch of power consuming devices / hubs :smiley:
I was hoping there is a way to use it via the Xiaomi Mi Gateway that I already have. Maybe I just go with the compatible devices without display.

Now you mention this fact? :slight_smile:

Yeah I’m already using this fantastic binding. Its perfect. But it’s not supporting the MiaoMiaoCe. But thats basically caused by the missing compatibility between the gateway and the sensor itself.

I think I will fallback to this: Aqara Temperature, Humidity and Pressure Sensor.
