Question

What kind of range, realistically, can one expect between a multipurpose sensor and the hub/nearest repeater? I tried a wyze sensor in my mailbox, but it was too far. it's 75/100 feet from the house maybe? I realize that may be a bit far, but had to ask

Answer 1

I used a Zwave motion in my mailbox at least 70 feet from the hub through 3 walls, exterior is brick and mailbox is across the street. Zigbee would not work until I got my mesh built out.  

Answer 2

I have one mounted underneath my mailbox about 30ft from front door. When a loud or large truck comes by, it sets it off. Rain also sets it off. I put a delay of 100 mins between notifications. I also only notify when I'm home.
