Best answer
I use a open close sensor with an external temp probe.

I would think a sonoff TH10/16 would do if it’s just temp you want to monitor (not run power through it)

Throw a open close sensor in a plastic bag with a stone and pitch it in.

@pact5 I hope someday you ask a question on here so I can roast you like Justin Bieber. Head back to moms basement. She’ll call you when the meatloafs done.

@bushcraft119 sorry bud, not I'm mom's basement. Side note, I've already made my own self hosted lamp based temp sensor array. The questions i ask will be thoroughly researched and will show in how the question is worded, unlike yours.

After all of my ridicule now. Your answer is ds18b20. They are great.

@pact5 neat. I’ll read your dissertation lamp based temp sensor arrays before posting again. Every other poster understood my question. As far as doing research. I’ve never found a Zwave or zigbee sensor that you can use in a hot tub. hence the question on a smart home forum where 90% of the posters use SmartThings.

@bushcraft119 i do need to apologize, i just realised imuted this group before due to these questions . I am a bit of an ass and should leave this group, although the needle in the hay stack post comes on here that is very intuitive and i enjoy looking at.

Ambient Weather makes a pool/spa thermostat that reports to an inside display unit. The unit is capable of connecting to the internet and to your Ambient Weather account, which can report to SmartThings with a smart app. I use one in my pool and it works great.

@away62949 just for temp?

@glob84 I already had a weather station for all outdoor stats (use those stats for triggers). So it was just an add on for me.
