SensorPush G1 WiFi Gateway for Temperature & Humidity Sensors

Excellent products. So simple to use and set up. I own a two story radiator shop right next to my house and last winter the garage door opener erroneously activated in the middle of the night, when the temperature was near zero and quite windy. Even though I live right next door, I had no Idea the door had opened. It caused many split pipes and flooded the entire upper floor with 1" of ice. Also, I use a portable fuel oil (salamander type) heater to keep the shop above freezing as temperatures here in central NY go below freezing for weeks or months in a row. In the past I have had problems keeping it running 24/7 especially since I don't work on weekends and don't check it directly until Monday morning. It sometimes runs out of fuel and I don't catch it or if it fails to fire up properly the first time, it has to be manually cycled to get it to light. So I decided to monitor the temperature more closely and needed a way to have it notify me wherever I am that it needs attention quick. This winter I purchased a cheap temperature and humidity sensor that utilizes Bluetooth technology. But it wasn't able to lock on from the shop to the house and thus wasn't reliable enough. So after some research I found these SensorPush products that use a wireless gateway and multiple sensors to send a signal directly to my cell phone and will alarm me if any sensor is out of my preselected parameters. I bought two sensors, one for upstairs and one for downstairs. This system works fantastically! I can be out of town and check to see what the temperature and humidity is in my shop any time 24/7. I have it set to alarm if the temperature should drop below 38 degrees. I also set it up to notify me if it goes above 75 degrees in case I leave my boil out tank running by accident, which I have done since purchasing this system and the alarm did notify me in the middle of the night. So I am thrilled to have this ability. The cost was higher than I would have liked to spend but I figure it will pay for itself if it saves me from freezing pipes or boiling my tank dry. I also purchased a new portable heater to use as a back up and they are both on thermostats that kick them on and off at a preset temperatures. So far this winter I have had no problems keeping the shop warm, but more importantly, keeping it from freezing. Great products, I will be soon buy several more sensors to use here and there as I keep thinking of interesting new ways to use them. I adjusted my refrigerator and freezer to optimum temps with them and I'd like to set one up outside to monitor in the summer.

This review covers both the SensorPush G1 WiFi/Ethernet Gateway and the HTP and HTP.wx sensors. My needs were in obtaining temperature/humidity devices that could be monitored remotely as I do extensive overseas travel. I read reviews for a number of devices and the SensorPush system provided connectivity using BlueTooth, WiFi and Ethernet connectivity with multiple parameter monitoring. Many reviewers noted the company provided quick support via e-mail. I had a pre-installation question I sent on a Sunday evening and had a reply on Monday early afternoon answering my inquiry that was within the promised amount of time for responding to e-mail. The G1 Gateway and the most accurate HTP.wx are manufactured in the USA while the least expensive sensor HT1 is made in China. The HTP.wx sensor which is water resistant and has the ability to measure barometric pressure is mounted in the attic which has been experiencing high humidity levels. Using the information provided by the sensor, I am able to turn on/off an attic fan using SmartHome automation to lower the humidity level. The basic sensor for temperature and humidity is located in the basement that is not subjected to the levels of humidity as I experience in the attic. However I also have the ability to run a dehumidifier and separate fan for air circulation. I first connected the sensors to the iPhone app using BlueTooth and then installed the Gateway. With one sensor in the basement and one in the attic which is essentially the third level of the house, I needed to find an ideal location that provided significant signal strength. I ended up installing the Gateway on the first floor where I obtained equal signal strength. The connectivity remained robust for nearly a month when I noticed I was not receiving updates for almost two hours. I checked the Gateway and rebooted it and still no connection while my WiFi was working as well as all my other SmartHome automation devices and six WiFi thermostats. I suspect there was an issue with the server on the SensorPush company end being momentarily down. When I checked sometime later, the app was again being updated. No data was missing during the short outage. Since I was leaving for an international trip, I decided to run an Ethernet cable to a a switch in the house. My router and several Netgear switches are all plugged into UPS battery back-ups and the house is equipped with a standby generator to ensure continuously connectivity. When the plane touched down in Europe and I turned on my phone, I immediately began receiving push notifications from the SensorPush app giving me up-to-date status. I have been monitoring both sensors while here in Europe writing this review. I was pleasantly surprised at the functionality and appearance of the SensorPush app. It provides a great deal of flexibility in setting parameter limits for reporting and the ability to view data easily as a combination of alphanumeric characters and graphic showing trends of rising, stable or falling. A circle plotted on a horizontal line appears as green if within a clear zone indicating what the user defines as a normal range and a red circle within a shaded area if the value is above or below the user-defined normal range. The view can be changed to provide a graphic representation by hour, day, month and year. The graph lines of each parameter are presented in green indicating the measurements are within the user-defined limits and will be displayed in red when a parameter is above or below a defined limit. I am totally satisfied with the price, performance and technical support in the first full month of using this product. It is too early to provide information on battery life. However, the app provides information on battery level of each sensor so monitoring it is easy. I am looking to purchase a couple of HT.w sensors that are also water resistant and made in USA but does not have the capability of monitoring barometric pressure which is not needed since I already have one with that capability. If you have needs for remote monitoring whether off-premises or thousands of miles from home, I highly recommend purchasing the Gateway G1 to provide internet connectivity.

I have been a loyal SensorPush user for about 7 years now, and I couldn’t be happier with their products. The G1 WiFi Gateway has been a fantastic addition. The setup was incredibly easy, and it seamlessly connected with my existing SensorPush sensors. The remote monitoring capability is a game-changer, allowing me to check on my fridge, freezer, outdoor fish setup, from anywhere in the world. The data is always accurate, and the alerts are reliable, giving me peace of mind knowing that my everything is in a stable environment. One of the best things about SensorPush is the lack of monthly fees for their cloud service, which is a huge plus. The web dashboard is also very user-friendly and provides a great overview of all my sensors. I've only had to contact their customer support once in all these years, and the experience was excellent. The US-based team was responsive and knowledgeable. If you are serious about monitoring your environment, whether it's for a greenhouse, a freezer, or anything else, I wholeheartedly recommend SensorPush products. They are reliable, easy to use, and backed by a great company.

I have previously ordered a wifi temperature sensor from Govee. It was a nice product with amazing analytics but failed to provide email alerts. I could only get alerts when the app was active and only in a transient form. They came and went and I could not find them after the fact in the iPhone notification log. Unless you happen to be looking at your iPhone at right time, there would be no traces of temperature limit violation alerts. Unfortunately, I had to return the Govee product back to Amazon. With some understandable skepticism I ordered the SensorPush gateway and two temperature/humidity sensors. The setup was easy. User instructions were probably the most clear and intuitive that I have seen in a long time. Even the guide itself was printed in relatively large and clear print, which makes a difference for an old person like me. I took me all of 3 minutes to plug the gateway, pair it with iPhone via Bluetooth and then connect to my home wifi. Adding each sensor was another 30-second exercise. Then I started my testing. Notifications for high temperature limit violations were issued very quickly, essentially in real time. I had a little more problem with the low limit thresholds. I put sensors in a fridge a little to far from the gateway and the device kept giving me 65F for a few minutes. I finally understood that the sensor was not communicating with the gateway so no data updates were provided. I took a cold sensor out of the freezer and almost immediately the temperature reading in the app got updated to 20F and I got the alarm I was waiting for. I was able to play around with the calibration and it worked well. Once you adjust the temperature offset, you will be getting accurate readings. I have precise thermometers at home and was able to calibrate SensorPush sensors right on the money. The app, by the way, is so simple it is amazing. Probably the most intuitive I have seen in a long time. As a software developer myself, I was impressed. The cloud service comes free with the device purchase. Several other monitoring services wanted to charge me a fixed price for measurement hardware (more than SensorPush) plus a nice monthly/quarterly fee. Everything was going well except for email notifications. I just could not get them. I ran many tests with various heat sources and proved to myself that this system will produce notifications and will do that quickly and reliably. But without email alerts it was a no-go for me. By the way, you cannot set up the email notifications in the app. You have to go on the SensorPush web site and login into your account to do it. SensorPush is an excellent product and my only recommendation would be to add the email activation directly in the mobile app. The absence of email alerts was disappointing. I submitted a problem report form directly in the app on Sunday in the hope of getting a reply in the next 48 hours. In about 30 minutes I got a confirmation email that my report was received and someone is looking at it. The email asked me to provide more information if I had anything to add. I replied that I wanted to confirm that I did get an email from SensorPush and would like to get similar emails for actual alerts. In a couple of hours I received email from one of the company founders, Nick, who let me know that he examined my account and everything looked good to him. He said that he would be asking his cloud team to dig into the problem. In the meantime, he advised me to check my spam folder. Sure enough, I found all email alerts in the Gmail spam folder. I should have checked it before firing off a complaint. I immediately sent email to Nick thanking him for a quick response and telling him that he was correct in his suspicion. I have retested both sensors under a variety of conditions. I probably did more testing than SensorPush QA people. I confirmed that email alerts are issued reliably and quickly and that notifications are popping up in the iPhone notification log even if the app itself is not active. This is an amazing device with hardware being nicely integrated with the server and app software. I will be getting a second gateway and additional sensors for our other house.

I spent most of my working life designing and using electronic equipment. When I started with this product family about three years ago I was hesitant. It was a little pricey, it didn't quite fit my needs in some respects. But I had tried the cheap stuff like Govee. And while their stuff isn't terrible, it isn't great either. Worst of all it requires Chinese software on your phone, and you don't have to be a student of global politics to know that the CCP/PLA can compel companies to put back doors and spyware in their software. And why wouldn't they, when it gives them great intelligence gathering, and toehold platforms for cyber attacks? So I was ready for something better, but I did not want to spend the next few months rolling my own solution. I cannot tell you how happy I am that I found Sensor-Push. It is rock solid reliable, and while the modules use a weird battery, it lasts a couple of years. At this point I have sensors monitoring everything from my pet poultry in their house, to the return air in my HVAC system. I have five sensors that are used to monitor dry aging of meat, yeast and sourdough ferment production and storage, bread-making, and I soon plan to add monitoring of my steam injection oven, espresso machine, and coffee roaster. I am using a couple of their Bluetooth to Wi-Fi gateways, which not only keeps me from encountering any out of range problems, but it also lets me check on things from anywhere in the world. But wait, because I buried the lead. Today is Sunday. This morning I decided to send them an email about special requirements I have and things I would like to see in the future. I figured I would here from them later next week. Within the hour I had a reply from a knowledgeable, helpful, friendly guy. And the answers I received were excellent "can do" answers. Now I have been involved in electronics professionally since 1975, and as a hobby, from about age 11. I remember the time when I could pick up the phone with a problem and wind up talking first to a sales engineer, and ultimately to the guy who designed the IC or other component - but it has been a lot of years since things worked that way. Today reminded me of the excellence I used to encounter daily in the 1980s. So if you are considering an application that these folks can meet, and you want a rock solid product with software that doesn't make you cringe when you install it on your phone, I will recommend Sensor-Push without hesitation. And if you don't see what you need in their lineup, send them an email. I can't promise a Sunday reply, but this is a company that wants to meet the needs of its customer base. They have a good thing going and it seems logical that they will expand their offerings over time. So yes, I am a fanboy, but using the product and being very satisfied is my only connection. I hope you found this helpful.

I love the sensors but eventually got tired of having to go the side of the house where my phone's Bluetooth can reach them and then having to wait for them to connect. So I bought this gateway. Getting it set up was an easy process, except it required several tries. The app would say that it was connecting to the gateway. The wheel would spin and then fail. Repeat and it would work. Same issue with connecting the gateway to the WiFi. Fail, retry, fail, retry, connected! Then it worked seamlessly. I could see my sensors from anywhere I had an Internet connection. Until it stopped working. Three weeks after my purchase the gateway just died. I went to check the weather on my phone and it said the gateway was off line. I went the gateway and it was plugged in and right where I had placed it 3 weeks earlier. Just dead. I couldn't get a light to come on. I even got my tester out and made sure the power adapter was putting out the proper voltage. So I emailed support and not only did they send me a new one, completely free of charge, but I had it within 48 hours. Hard to beat that for service and standing behind their product. I saw some other reviews where people said this was too expensive but I'm not sure what people expect. This is an ongoing service provided by the manufacture where you can reach your device across the Internet without any cost beyond the initial purchase. You don't see that too often these days. So only 4 stars for now. We will see how long this gateway lasts and maybe adjust my rating at a later time.

They are very easy to set up. I use mine in a large incubator in my barn. I use the gateway with a wifi extender. It works great. I can get readings on all 4 of my incubators from my phone anywhere I am at. They are connected to the gate way and WiFi range extender. I set up my alerts on temperature and humidity. It alerts me if temperatures drop or get too high. I have 4 incubators temperature and humidity sensors in my incubators and they all read about the same with the SensorPush. This was the smartest investment I ever made. Temperature on my incubators probe reads about the same as sensor push.

Such a clever little device. My partner and I run an Ice cream business, Pop Ice UK and we need to be able to constantly register the temperature of the freezer for food safety. We have tried so many different devices, that seemed to fail on us quickly. This device and its sensors however are fantastic, accurate and convenient, small and compact they tick every box. If we have had any questions or slight problems the company SensorPush has been very quick to respond and resolve. I honestly can’t recommend enough and I have got sensors for our personal fridge/freezers now just for the knowledge they are working correctly and at the right temperature. As a side note, when we are trading, we take a sensor with us and put it in the van freezer and it is so easy to read it via Bluetooth without the gateway. The gateway is just great for us as we have peace of mind whilst we are out and about that the main freezers are working properly and if we were to have a powercut or freezer malfunction we would know quickly with the alerts and have time to do something about it. Edited 10/08/2023 - I love sensorpush not just for their clever little devices, but their unfaltering customer service, there is no other company that makes you feel as valued as they do. This is how companies should be run.

Soddisfatto dei tempi di consegna molto rapidi, ma soprattutto del funzionamento dell'oggetto che mi consente di raccogliere le misure di 3 sensori distribuiti in un appartamento ed averle a disposizione su più smartphone/tablet ponendole condividere a distanza anche con mio figlio. Molto soddisfatto.

Easy to use and works well

Funktioniert bei mir absolut zuverlässig seit mehr als fünf Jahren. Habe zwei Sensoren dazu auch seit fünf Jahren. Auch diese funktionieren immer noch einwandfrei. Vieken Dank.

This is a great device!
