The Nous E5 combined temperature and humidity sensor is a small wireless smart home sensor supporting the Tuya Zigbee protocol, which communicates with the network via a Tuya Zigbee gateway. It is compatible with Tuya / SmartLife Zigbee gateways, communicating through this Tuya transmits data to the cloud and we can control other Wi-Fi or Zigbee Tuya-compatible devices based on its alarm, and can send an alarm to the Tuya / Nous app on our phone.

The device can be used with Nous's own Nous APP and the Tuya app, in the latter case, according to experience, more functions are available.

Szentor is a sensor recommended for the Tuya smart home system, it basically works in cloudy mode. However, in the case of Tuya Zigbee gateways that work without an Internet connection and can cache and run the automations locally, the automations can also work without an Internet connection.

When connected to a Tuya Zigbee gateway, it also supports Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and (for iOS phones) Siri voice control.

Product features:

- Tuya Zigbee chip connection: connects to Tuya Zigbee gateways via 2.4 GHz Tuya Zigbee protocol.
- Zigbee technology provides a long range for data transmission, and mesh technology can increase it even further.
- Voice control: Compatible with the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa systems, so it can also be controlled by voice control (for Tuya Zigbee gateways).
