Just installed the relay. Humidity sensor says it is 97% humidity indoors which is obviously wrong. My sensi and 2 dumb sensors is less than half that. I searched Google and reddit without any luck. Any suggestions?

Yeah, it doesn't work. Its a known issue. Mine show 100%,100%,78%

humidity sensors have been around for what..100 years?
you can buy a $5 temp/humidity sensor at dollar general store that's more accurate.
fricking wink.

Sure but if you are going to offer a function you should probably make it work.

What is this for? I think I missed what Wink makes that gauges humidity?

I just installed the relay at my house this weekend. Like it a lot as I can walk by and touch it to unlock front door before i get there on the way out and arm door sensors, etc. on way in if I want to. The two switches I have set for all exterior lights on and the other for back to night lighting for when someone knocks on the door at night. Handy so I don't have to get my phone first to do it.

Click bait. Nice try penis but regardless of whether you have a smart bulb or smart switch turning it off and on turns the light on.

Not if he set the switch up in smart mode. If you put the Tapt in smart mode, it is always on
Eta: you probably owe him an apology

What do you mean set the switch up as a smart switch? All of my smart switches can still be manually toggled between on/off. Why would anyone buy one that didn't?

On the tapt and relay, you can set it to basically act as a remote for controlling smart bulbs attached to the load. Power will always flow to bulb, and the switch just tells the bulb to change state.
Eta: it's called smart mode. Corrected my post

Did he mention it was a tapt? That's a pretty obscure switch and to have it in smart mode where it's also got a smart bulb in the socket as well seems like a pretty far fetched scenario for a bathroom light switch.
Using a tapt as a dimmer is dumbest fricking thing you can do because you already paid for a smart switch then you're paying again for a smart bulb that youre wasting on the light you already installed a smart switch for. Stupid tax.

No, that was just an example of one that would behave like that. It is apparently a hue system, so perhaps he blocked off the switch so no one could turn the switch off on him.

i think he's full of clickbait shite.

Just got 5 leaksmart sensors in DS for $18 a piece. Coursey was still $45. No clue on Highland.

Current products I have:
Hue
Nest
Chamberlain
I want to keep it as easy as possible for my wife. I am hard wired with a DSC alarm currently that's never been activated.
I am looking at Scout, Envisalink to activate DSC, smarthings, and wink. Thoughts, comments TLDR?
