Hey Guys,

Do you have any suggestions for an outdoor thermometer to connect to my Homey? Need to be able to handle -20 C.

Aqara? Temperature/Hum/Pressure  
I got one in my freezer and it works fine.

If you connect it (directly) to Homey and not to an Aqara/Xiaomi hub, there is no CCP tracking possible.

That’s not a lot of information you’re providing.  
Which radio protocol? Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wifi?  
Is there a power outlet nearby?

My recommendation is a BleBox temperature sensor. But you need a USB power supply:

Quite hard to suggest, without knowing details…

1. If more than one point & parameter and also budget is not the biggest problem - Netatmo (have them - full set, but only wind gauge does not deserve 5 stars)
2. If the budget is big problem, but thermometer is near the Homey, then something from Oregon (433 additional module). But, be warned, the Homey is not the brightest long-range receiving star. Tested also by myself
3. Of course others, given by others here 😉

But though Netatmo is a fine device, the outdoor temperature sensor cannot stand in direct rain. that is silly.
