All electronic devices generate a little bit of heat, so this fact is unavoidable. The small size of the H&T; intensifies this challenge. The part of the H&T; that takes temperature measurements is close by and confined within the same case that houses the heat-generating components like the CPU. Shelly engineers devised a way to get around the problem by having the device sleep, then quickly take a measurement before the locally-produced heat can skew the measurement.Aqara Wireless Smart Temperature Humidity Sensor — Monitors temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure in real time.
