I love 433MHz sensors because they are cheap and work over a long distance. My most complicated device is this weather station with many sensors. We also use BLE devices like the Xiaomi body scale in our bathroom. Today I will show you how to connect such devices to your smart home without hacking. And, as usual, you will learn some tricks and why the BLE proxy of Home Assistant sometimes does not work.

So cool! I've missed this update. I'll need to go and check if the new rtl_433 project also supports 868 MHz. We've got a similar weather station at our cottage but somewhat surprisingly it uses 868MHz. The original SDR dongle version of rtl_433 works also on this bandwidth. I'd be more than happy to relieve one of my Raspi's from the burden. It's been a PITA as the dongle sometimes drops from the USB bus and requires unplugging to fix the issue. It's quite difficult to accomplish when 200km away at home!

Hi Ristomatti, It should work on 868 (maybe you have to tweak the frequency in the code. But of course, it has to be able to decode your sensor.

Thank you for another great video. Ordered 2 Lilygo modules after the vid through your link, modules arrived 10 days later. Easy to flash but took a number of attempts to configure correctly. Seems most of the instructions online are for version 1.3 of the software although current version is 1.4. Running this module next to a usb connected SDR and the data is similar.

Hi Paul, your delivery was extremely fast! I am glad you can confirm with the SDR. I no more have this setup (I changed to the simpler RF-Link a long time ago.
