I would like an outdoor zigbee smart plug with temperature sensor - or a small powered temperature/weather sensor. Do anyone know of any?

Never seen or read about, whith any wireless protocol that is.  
I don’t know the background of your question, but I use a standard Aqara Temp/Hum/Pressure sensor, hidden from direct rain. Keep in mind those should not be used with temperatures below -20°C.  
Those sensors are pretty solid, while there’s also one in the fridge here (which reaches -20°C quite often), one below the cooker hood (hot steam), and one above the shower head 😉

Thanks **Peter** , I was thinking plugging the smart plug into an outdoor outlet and by doing so, achieving multiple goals:

- Extending my Zigbee mesh outside
- Don’t having to buy some kind of weather station to keep track of local temperature

Since my cabin is far away from me and temperatures can get down to -10\*C, battery operated devices aren’t really the way to go, in my opinion. Ideally, I would like to measure humidity and air pressure too :- ) with small outdoor devices (instead of the big weather station installations).

I understand the situation. I don’t know about any mains / USB powered zigbee temperature sensors which can handle -10°C, -20°C or lower; and when they actually do exist, and if it’s small enough, you could maybe build it into a zigbee smart plug yourself.  
But… in theory, a powered sensor should act as a zigbee router as well.

I found one! In a store next door ironically 🙂 : [Namron ZigBee Thermostat plug 16A](https://www.elektroimportoren.no/namron-zigbee-termostatplugg-16a/4512749/Product.html)  
(Warning: It’s not an outdoor device, IP20)

The device is supported by **Homey** via the [Namron app](https://homey.app/en-us/app/net.filllip-namron/Namron/). And amongst several, there’s this event:

I’m gonna give it a go! 🙂
