They are already selling the Vindriktning for a long time. It doesn't have a screen, just a traffic lights style indicator, and the thresholds are quite high. However it costs like $10 and if you buy a $3 esp module and spend few minutes soldering you can get it integrated into home assistant.
This new device looks nice but due to the display I expect the price to be much higher.
- martin_a 4y agoThis was the first thing that came to my mind. I've got various IKEA lights integrated in Home Assistant which is no problem due to sticking to the ZigBee standard, so I can use my existing gateway + RPi 3. If those air quality monitors would support the ZigBee standard too, that would be very nice.
- progbits 4y agoDefinitely. These could be nice for locations where they can be seen as they actually look nice and provide useful display. But usually I prefer to hide something cheaper and uglier behind furniture and then get the data on my phone. I wish they put these into other objects like lamps, picture frames etc
