I would never buy one of these again. I had quite a few of them (door/window sensor), the battery life was useless. Also I found them incredibly difficult to include into the network, let alone trying to sync them.
“ I have had the same result with Sensative Strips. Of the 3 I bought one was DOA, the other 2 I struggled to pair with Vera and were put in a drawer for 6 months. One is now dead as well, refuses to respond to anything and the other one succesfully paired but showed only 25% and after 3 days has stopped responding.
Its a nice idea but too many people seem to have issues, and they just dont seem reliable enough for the cost.”
