Shelly H&T Gen3 Mocha

Didn’t think I’d forget it’s there, but the battery life is legit—charged it once back in March and it’s still showing the same cozy mocha-colored display. The e-ink screen updates fast enough to glance at from across the room, and the readings have been spot-on compared to my old thermometer.

The e-ink display is a game changer—it's so easy to read the temp at a glance without waking my phone. I set it up in the baby's room and the battery hasn't budged from 100% in the three weeks since, which tracks with the "over a year" claim.

Charged this thing once back in March and it's still showing 87%—the battery life is honestly absurd for something this small. I keep it on my plant shelf and the e-ink display is so easy to read from across the room that I just glance over instead of pulling out my phone.
