Inkbird Wi-Fi Gateway, IBS-M1 Wi-Fi Bridge, Gateway Smart Hub, Remotely Monitor Thermometer hygrometer Monitor by App

Did not take the IPX4 waterproof rating for granted because the back seam and battery compartment do not appear to be well sealed against the ingress of water. Have enclosed this with a rubber sleeve using double-sided tape.To further prevent ingress of water I have enclosed this into a rubber cowl to the rear and all four sides. The cowl also prevents spurious readings due to the wind-chill factor and hopefully will only record atmospheric temperature. Although some wind-chill will effect the readings due to the open front of the cowl. This being to expose the probe fully to atmosphere.I deducted one star due to the slow response of the probe to temperature variations. Set to a 10 second interval for calibration purposes the offset was implemented immediately but it takes the probe 24 - 36hrs to settle to an accurate reading. Calibrating indoors before placing outdoors, the offset had to be altered multiple times before it would settle at the correct reading. It then took another 24 - 36hrs to read the outside temperature correctly before realising it was "too" sheltered and have moved it to a more realistic position. I am awaiting another day before I expect it to settle again. Fingers crossed. I will amend this review when it as been operating for a period of settled time.

This is a great little product & very simple to set up on your Phone or tablet.It is very accurate at the moment for both tempeature & humidity with alarm.You can alter the length of time it takes readings from every 10 minutes to every 4 hours.The only slight niggle i have is i would have liked to have a rechargeable battery built in, instead of the 3x AAA batteries needed.I would definitely recomment this to anyone needing a mobile temp & humidity stat.

I was asked to trial this and leave an honest review and I'm really glad I did. I currently use Bluetooth devices to monitor temperatures which are fine but having the WiFi version makes it even easier as I can access and download data from anywhere which I really like. It sends alerts if temperatures or humidity are out if the set parameters which came in handy last week when the fuse blew on the ball pythons thermostat, a notification came through to let me know the temperature was below the limit I'd set so I could deal with it promptly.Only recommendation I have to inkbird is that I think adding something to hang/stick the device with would be a nice touch and would look nicer than the string I was using at first. It's a thumbs up from us at Scales and Shells uk 😊

I hadn’t twigged that this would only give an hourly reading. Other smart thermometers give a reading every 10 mins or so which makes it easier to adjust the temperature if needed.

Looking for a sensor to alert me when I was away from home led me to the INKBIRD IBS-TH3.The packaging is very modern like most products at the minute a stylish box that slides off with ease, the IBS-TH3 is well presented and again has a clean mordern look to it.I gave the IBS-TH3 36 hours in situ to acclimatise to the incubator and watched via the app for it to steady out.I was able to calibrate the sensor with my Comark C22C Food Thermometer. the IBS-TH3 calibration all though is made easy, is a little fiddley as the device needs to register every 0.1' individually as it happens I was only 0.1'F out which is increddibly accurate.The sesor its self is sat center of an incubator and is important I am able to get notificatiions on any temp swings. On testing these notifications were pretty reliable, all though putting your phone/tablet on to do no disturb the app was unable to push notifications, easily fixed by giving the app the correct permissiions within your device to by pass DND.My only niggle at the moment seems to be it is quite hungry on the batteries, I am a week in to testing for my incoming eggs and the batteries have depleated ny 6% so i would 100% reccomend having some rechargables at hand.Over all the IBS-TH3 is a welcomed addiitiion to ourr hobby, and earrly testing shows a good accurate product able to send notifications reliable, with 1 or 2 fiddley tweaks. I can't at the moment gove any complaint to the item or its workings orr reliabilty.

RH is pretty accurate but slow, temp not so accurate it shows around 1 degree C higher and also pretty slow unfortunately u can’t calibrate it it’s a big - !! Overall 3*

INKBIRD IBS-TH3Great little room thermometer. As you would expect by Inbird it does what it says.Brought this as Our lounge away seems so much colder than the rest of the house and wanted to confirm this before we had it looking intoConnect to the app very easily and the app its self is very user friendly.The product itself is quite small, which I like as I have have it hidden away behind a photo. The only downside is that it is not a rechargeable and uses a AAA battery but saying that I have had for some time and the battery is still going strong.Highly recommend if you are looking for a home thermometer
