Hello!

I moving to a new home with a small pool and I was thinking of buying a pool sensor.

Right now I’m searching for something simple like temperature but would be nice to have ph and others.

I’d like it to be local, no cloud, and right now something cheap, I love DIY stuff.

So, any recommendations? Any experiences with these kind of sensors? My searches lead to pretty expensive stuff that can measure all the pool parameters and cloud based.

Thanks for reading!

    Thank you! Just checked it and it looks really nice. How do you integrate it with home assistant? I’ve been checking the inkbird integration and it seems to be Bluetooth only. I’m afraid Bluetooth is not an alternative, the HA server is in the basement and is not going to reach the pool by Bluetooth

      I set this up recently with an ESPHome Bluetooth proxy on an m5stack atom. As long as the proxy can be on WiFi and see the Inkbird, works great.
