| MQTT | Works Local | Reasonably priced, long battery life with z2mSaved copyI used to use a ton of ESP WiFi devices with Tasmota but in the long these drag down your WiFi performance. I have switched to Aqara and Tuya ZigBee devices and with zigbee2mqtt it's a real breeze. The devices are reasonably priced and the tiny batteries last forever. Just make sure you get a good coordinator, I had a CC2530 but have recently switched to a Conbee II, which is much more reliable and powerful.

| MQTT | Works Local | Temperature accurate; humidity offset calibratable in Z2M; several users agreeSaved copyYou can adjust the humidity offset in the "specific settings" tab of zigbee2mqtt. I always do this calibration with my Aqara sensors. Works great if you have a known calibrated hygro. You can also do the salt water shot glass in a ziplock to get 75% rH to calibrate with.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
