However I called yesterday and was told that the offer code / reference is no longer valid.

Hopefully robmcdonald will see this and be able to advise.

I actually quoted the H1901004 RP reference and ordered a Drimaster HC no problem on Monday. The sales team logged the order and then the credit team phoned to take payment. The unit has arrived today.

Big saving. Many thanks for the organising the group buy Rob.

I’ve been using Bluetooth Hygrometers for the last few weeks which I recommend if you want to keep an eye on readings easily. I went for Bluetooth ThermoPro TP357 units which are £8.50 on Amazon. They have very good range through the house (so it’s ok to have one up in the loft) and a basic app.



What battery life do you get out of those??

I've got two wifi enabled LCD displays that do temp and humidity and were a lot more than those but my god they chew thro batteries - less than 1 week is typical and they take 3 x AAA

I've been running them on rechargeables but it is a pain having to recharge so frequently

I've had the same temp sensors for about a year now. I believe I've changed them all twice now. However I was checking them a lot over the winter due to a new heating system and I think I changed well before six months. Then they've lasted much longer for the second period due to it being summer. They only take 1xAAA so fairly irrelevant anyway.

I’m looking at purchasing the Flatmaster to be installed in the landing area as our loft is used as another lounge by my Mrs. However, I’m concerned that because this will be pulling in air directly from the outside and not from a slightly warmer loft space that the air being pushed out in the house is going to be really cold over the winter? I know you can buy the ones with a heating element but it looks like it could get pretty pricey running it over a length of time. Does anyone have any insights or experience with the Flatmaster?

I have had one to keep the air moving a bit in my holiday home for about a year. I can’t say I’ve noticed the electricity bill going up much on a relatively gentle setting.

I'd use the ZigBee ones if your goinb to use home assistant at any point
https://sonoff.tech/product/gateway-and-sensors/sn... even if your not you can use their app you need a ZigBee gateway too to use them

It's the ones I use , they use a 2450 battery lasts over a year judging by the usage do far (obviously the more they update the more they use)

I’m fairly certain there isn’t a heated version of the flat master. Sorry.

It’s really not my product… on reflection I should probably give up trying to answer questions.

I can still get the discount though, so definitely adding value still.

NoX filtration is something I know about. Are you on a busy road?

Hi Rob. Yes it's a main road outside, there's a very small front garden and that's it. I installed the piv round the back of the house and hopefully that helps . I've also got a log burner so just in case the piv draws in the smoke at least I'll know it's been filtered properly.

Cheers

Wow absolutely amazing the biggest difference after only running for half a day the musty smell is literally all gone. Remnants are probably from sticking to clothes and furniture.
The most surprising thing is it's transformed my wood burner . The draw on it now is stupendous, it's running hotter and much more efficiently. One log is lasting nearly double the time and I can close the vents right down without the stove choking itself with no oxygen.

Got some of these yesterday.

Should I be concerned my loft is currently 16c but 71% humidity or is that about right for a wet day like today?
