Which specific T1 sensor are you looking for? T1 is a designation Aqara uses for multiple of their sensors. There is not one specific T1 sensor. You need to be more specific.

Also I checked in some other country variants of the AliExpress store and get loads of hits when searching for the generic ‘Aqara T1’ keywords, like @robertklep is showing in his post above.

I just checked and find several non-T1 (the prior version that does not have Zigbee 3.0) and E1 versions of the door & window sensor. I am not familiar with the E1 version. You might want to look into that and report back here for the benefit of the community.

FYI: Amazon has T1 versions on Black Friday sale right now.

Would it be technically possible to import scenes and automations created in the native Aqara app into the Homey app?

Hello,

HP2023, all updated.

I recently installed 3x Aqara Smart Radiator Thermostat E1.

I noticed that there is no “When” card “Smart Radiator Thermostat is ON or OFF”.

With an On-Off card I could turn my water pump on or off.

I see the change in color of the thermostat in the app of the on or off state.

Or am I missing something?

If I turn the Thermostat “OFF” with the app (options: Off-Manual-Away), it turns to “Manual-5 degrees C”, after a certain time.

All by itself, no flows created (jet).

If I change the Temperature offset in Advanced Settings of the Thermostat, the temperature is not updated in the Tile-display.

Only after a certain time (don’t know how long) do I see a change in the temperature reading. I presume that it has worked, but still not sure; it could also be the “normal Temperature change.

Any ideas?

@TedTolboom Are there any plans to address the ongoing issues with the Thermostat E1? It seems like many users, myself included, are encountering fundamental problems.

I purchased six Smart Radiators based on the understanding that they are supported through the Aqara app on Homey. However, they do not function as advertised. With the heating season upon us, we’re unable to utilize any smart features - this includes updating or setting the thermostat via the app and creating automated flows. Right now the Aqara Smart Radiator Thermostat E1 is just like a regular knob.

Your assistance or clarification on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I’m struggling with that as well, as many other people :|. Almost one month ago reported this issue but it looks like no one cares.

I can no longer adjust the temperature through the app, although any temperature changes made directly on the thermostat do reflect correctly in the app. Additionally, clicking the calibration option in the app has no effect on the thermostat itself.

Hello @TedTolboom.

Could it be possible to also include the valve controller T1 (waterklep.).  
Product model: VC-X01E?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,  
I add a Aqara Temperature, Humidity and Pression T1 on my Homey Pro. I see it, but no information from yesterday ?  
Must I add the Aqara Hub to function this ?

Aqara have problems with Homey, or vice versa.

I can not get them working as well for the moment. Kind of lost connection, again and again

To be more precise, when you use Ikea lights in your Homey zigbee mesh, Aqara sensors stop sending events as soon as they use such a light as router. To make things worse, they also stop searching for other router devices.  
I haven’t read about issues with other brand/model zigbee routers.  
Which do you guys use?

This issue should be fixed with this firmware release, but obviously it is not:

I’d suggest to report your issues to homey.app/support.

(It’s really Aqara+Homey related: Ikea lights + Aqara sensors work fine with zigbee2mqtt for example)

That fix was for something else: newer Aqara devices expect that the controller sends a certain identifier during the pairing process (to identify that the controller is an Aqara hub). That fix implements a workaround for that (from what I remember, Homey basically sends that identifier when it sees that it’s pairing an Aqara device).

I see, these update descriptions are not the clearest (to me).  
So this means this years old “Ikea light + Aqara sensor issue” is still not investigated, or is not fixable.
