Proteus AMBIO – Wifi Temperature Humidity sensor with Buzzer and Email/Text Alerts

UPDATE 4.4.18: I just added a second Proteus sensor at our second location, and it couldn’t have been easier. What’s nice is that I can use the same account as I did for the original sensor, even though it’s on a different WiFi network. Now, both sensors appear on the same webpage, and each is individually customizable, so you can set different temperature ranges and different notification emails and text. They have recently spruced up their website, too. This is a really great product from a good company!I just set this device up. It was pretty straighforward, but you need to have the provided temperature extension plugged in and should have your WiFi setter open in your phone or tablet before you plug in the sensor. If your WiFi setter doesn’t immediately pick up the Proteus WiFi signal, try pressing the black button next to the temperature sensor jack for several seconds, and the device will reset and should get the Proteus network to appear. You need to enter your account info (email and password) on their website and then log in. You will see your sensor with the temp and humidity readout. You can then do your alert settings for low and high temp and humidity %, etc., and add additional emails addresses, and cell phone numbers (for texts, if you want). Mine started recording the temp and humidity with great accuracy. I plugged mine into an UPS battery backup, so it will still work, if there is a power outage (my WiFi router is also plugged into the same UPS). The temp and humidity sensor extension is very short, but I understand that you can request a longer one from the seller, if you want to put it in your fridge or something like that.
