Suggestions to replace crappy TS601 #1142

I trialled both the Aqara e1 and the new sonoff zbtrv a couple of months
ago - the Sonoff works great for me with zigbee2mqtt and BT, and half the
price of the Aqara.
Early days, but I have 15 that haven't missed a beat yet...

Hi there,

(_TZE200_cpmgn2cf), I'm looking for replacements.
These TRVs are so bad that sometimes they report the valve is closed, when
in fact is not. This drives me nuts because I have to turn them on and off
again, then the valve will actually close.
I know there are Aqara E1, but they are a bit pricey, 60€ each.
I have found these "clones
<https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003172662104.html>" on Aliexpress
which look similar but are actually different, about half the price.
In the comments people confirm that work with Z2M, this is the model
<https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/GS361A-H04.html>.
Do you know this model or have other suggestions? I would like to spend
less than 50€ per valve.

I have been running the TRVZB on rechargable batteries for a couple of months now. No issues. My (crappy) TS0601 would die after two days on the same batteries |

@a8ree could you tell me what extra attributes these Sonoff TRVZB's have? |

They don't (currently) provide valve position. I'm not sure whether the device provides it but Z2MQTT doesn't pick it up |

Thanks @a8ree for the info, loving the fact that TRVZB do work with rechargeable batteries! At the end of the day, Better Thermostat only needs the target temperature :) I will surely consider TRVZB for future purchases! |
