IBS-TH1 PLUS Aquarium

I have four of the IBS-TH1 Plus+Aquarium Probe. I got the first one in February 2020. That one shows up in the app as version 1.7.0. The other three show up as version 2.1.0.- The version 1.7.0 goes through batteries pretty quick, but that was the only dis-like.- I got the second unit (the first on version 2.1.0) in July 2022. At first, I noticed that the batteries ran out much faster than the 1.7.0 unit; about half the time. After a month or so, I also realized that it's operation freezes after a week or two (and I was thinking the aquarium temperature was REALLY stable). The temperature reading didn't change and the batteries had to be removed and re-inserted to get it back to working. It still does this, but now I am just using it to measure pre-heated water for water changes. The good news is that I contacted Inkbird and they sent out a new unit. Great customer service.- The replacement unit from Inkbird is also on version 2.1.0. It has a different problem, and I haven't brought myself to contact Inkbird about it yet. Annoyingly, the display changes to the centigrade display every few days and I have to press the button on the unit's shell to get it back to Fahrenheit.- On a good sale in mid- October, I purchased the fourth unit - also a version 2.1.0 unit. It arrived with a cracked display and Amazon replaced it. The replacement has been working well so far without either the freeze or switching display issues.Overall, I love many of its features including (1) Bluetooth connection with the app, (2) highly readable display, and (3) aquarium-friendly probe with a better-than-most suction cup. In the dark, I have to shine a light on it to read it but I don't mind since it saves on the unit's battery. The magnet inside the unit allows me to mount the units on a metal bar attached to the wall which actually makes it easy to change battery and more (I originally had used velcro which had problems). I don't like how the display washes out when batteries get low (mainly the 1.7.0 unit as the 2.1.0 units get through the batteries really fast and there is no display at all). I really wish battery power conservation was better for an extended life between battery changes. The app does what I need although it could look nicer. I really wish the version could be upgraded/downgraded; if the issues I have seen are software-related.Bottom line is that I am happy enough with the version 1.7.0 and the last version 2.1.0 unit. But the grief I have from the other two units is so annoying. Do I recommend? Not really at the current 2.1.0 version. If we can get it past version 2.1.0 with better battery performance and reliability, then I would recommend it.COAUTH 120422IBTH

These are used inside my snake enclosures. Having tropical boas, they need 75 to 85 degree Temps and 65 to 85% humidity. Eventually I've had a couple just stop working. Out of like 10 originally, 3 fried out after a year and i had to replace them. Finally got tired of it and switched to Govee which I like better. Inkbird you can't name them so I just have to remember what order they are in on the app. As for the app, it doesn't deliver notifications to your phone, you have to have the app open in order for a very loud annoying alarm to go off. The Govee sends notifications to my phone and I can name each one individually. We will see if Govee holds up better than Inkbird.

Pro: Temperature Accuracy Adjustability of logging intervals and data retention Export to .csv Multiple SensorsCon: Closed System Built In ObsolescenceI'm using it for tracking the fermentation temperatures of the beers I brew. I don't pay any attention to humidity, and can't comment on the accuracy of that. I have two probes currently, one on a lager and one on an Ale. I'm using the included remote probe (wired) and have it taped up against the side of the fermentation vessel (until I get stoppers with thermowells). The temperature accuracy is very good (using a ThermoWorks ChefAlarm for comparison).It seems there is a set amount of storage which you can manage by adjusting interval vs retention. I'd like to see an option to turn off humidity tracking in favor of more storage for temperature, but it's not there. If you log temperature every minute it will hold 20 days of data.I'm assuming this means that logging every 10 minutes would get me 200 days of data (handy with some long aging beers like sours or high gravity beers). This should mean that at the slowest logging (30 minutes) it's good for 600 days. Except it's not, which leads me into a negative. The device runs on a non-rechargeable, non-replaceable battery with an expected lifespan of about a year. So the battery dies and you throw the whole thing away. Perhaps at slower logging intervals the battery will last longer, either way I don't like the environmental impact of throwing these into landfills regularly and buying new ones.The only way to access the data on the device is by connecting using their app (I'm using the Android version). The App connects via Bluetooth, but you can't connect to the device outside of the app. This means there is no way to poll for data and push to the internet (for example). I'm curious about the scenario of setting up an old phone, constantly connected, and using IFTTT or something to push data to the Internet but haven't taken the time to experiment yet. It can export it's data as csv, and I uploaded this to google drive and instantly had a spreadsheet with everything logged.While I'm here (with this voice) it would be nice if there was support for the logged data to be included in recipes. Let me be clear, this is not a fault of this product, there simply isn't support in brewing software to attach temperature logs to your brew session (I'm speaking to Beersmith, Brewers Friend, BeerXML, etc). I can see, if I start to log all of my beers, I then have to manually correlate this log to this beer and that log to that beer; sooner or later it's going to get unwieldy.Overall, great product that works very well but it's use is hindered by the closed system, planned obsolescence and lack of ability to import the data into any of the software I use (and that last part isn't their fault).

El uso del dispositivo y la instalación del software el el teléfono es muy sencillo, los datos se exportan en un archivo de excel, que después se puede graficar. El único inconveniente es la limitación de rangos de medición de temperatura.

El termómetro no te permite conectar y mostrar los datos por Bluetooth en el celular sin dar permiso a tu ubicación y conexión Wifi a la aplicación que utiliza. Muestra error de conexión Bluetooth que se soluciona una vez que se conecta al wifi y se permite acceso a la ubicación.

La marca es muy buena, y es fácil de leer, además de que puedes ver las gráficas de cómo existe variación de temperatura

Calidad precio satisfactorio

No se conecta con el teléfono, no sirve.
