Maybe this? [Probe.](https://community.homey.app/t/thermometer-with-probe-for-water-temperature/66334) ---

If range is a problem, you could consider using the Shelly [LoRa](https://community.homey.app/t/shelly-mit-lora-add-on-5-km-reichweite/137212) add-on. ---

I searched for such a thing myself some years ago. Came up empty handed, either just not available or way to expensive. So, I made my own wifi sensor based on a ESP 8266 and an DS18B20 sensor. Total costs: €20 or so. After four years, it still runs fine. If you’re knowledgeable on Arduino programming, I can send instructions to build your own. Edit: I’m planning to make a zigbee or a bluetooth variant based on a cheap nRF52840 dongle, but that will require experience in embedded software to reproduce. It’ll be about the same price point, use less energy (it should be able to run a whole season from a single powerbank) and more secure. ---

The Ecowitt WN63 Pool Thermostat is designed for pools, as the name suggests. It’s not separate listed in the Homey [Misol and Ecowitt](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.misol/Misol-and-Ecowitt/test/) App in the App Store, but according to this discussion in the App topic ([Link](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-misol-and-ecowitt-release-0-1-39-test-0-1-40/47076/62)) it seems to work already. The other two Ecowitt temperature sensors are not specific for pools, but they have a probe so that the probe can easily be place… ---
