Overall, these are good value with lots of nice features. But there is one really glaring missing feature that Govee needs to add if they want a full 5/5 rating: The android app does not show sensor signal strength to gateway, nor does it show status. So the app shows all the sensors regardless if the gateway sees it or not. So if a sensor is in a puddle of water but the signal is not getting through, you have no way of knowing there is no signal, and of course it does not signal that it detects water. So it creates a false sense of security. I have sent the suggestion to Govee support but no answer. I suggested showing signal strength for each sensor, status of each sensor, and an alarm option if a sensor drops off. I am hopeful they see the logic and add this feature to the app. After final placement of the gateway, I tested each sensor with a plate of water, at the sensor location, to make sure each has a proper signal where they are placed. A painfully tedious process to make sure each is within range, which could be avoided if I had some way of knowing the sensors have adequate signal strength. But even with that precaution, I have no way of knowing if there is a sensor barely within signal range. It is unfortunate that such a overall good system has such a glaring flaw. Otherwise I think it is a pretty good system. Instructions are quite good, so setup was quite simple. And I overall like how the alarm is audible, goes to your phone, and sends an email. Normally I would give a 3/5 rating for such a big flaw, but it is overall a pretty nice package so I give it 4/5. I am sure I am not the only one requesting these additional features, so I am hoping that Govee listens and adds the features in a future update. Read more

I recently installed the Govee Water Sensor 3-pack, and it has been a game-changer for monitoring potential water leaks around my home. These sensors are small, unobtrusive, and give me peace of mind knowing I’ll be alerted immediately if water is detected. Setup & Ease of Use Setting up these sensors was quick and straightforward. The app walks you through connecting each sensor to Wi-Fi, and placement is flexible—you can use them in basements, under sinks, near water heaters, or behind appliances. Once placed, they work instantly without any additional setup. Performance The sensors are highly responsive. Even a small amount of water triggers an immediate alert to my phone, giving me enough time to address the issue before it becomes a bigger problem. The notifications are reliable, and the sensors seem very accurate. Build Quality These sensors feel solid and well-built. They’re compact enough to place discreetly, yet durable enough to last for years without issue. Battery life is excellent, so I don’t have to worry about frequent replacements. Final Thoughts Overall, the Govee Water Sensor 3-pack is a must-have for anyone who wants to protect their home from unexpected leaks. Easy to install, reliable, and highly effective—these sensors give me confidence and peace of mind. Read more

Govee WiFi Water Sensor 3 Pack, Water Leak Detector 100dB Adjustable Alarm and App Alerts, Leak and Drip Alert with Email, Wireless Detector for Home, Basement(Not Support 5G WiFi) These are cost-effective Wi-Fi enabled water leak sensor devices. This pack comes with three wireless sensors that check in to a single Wi-Fi plug-in hub. This type of design allows you to buy many sensors for a cost-effective price. There are other water leak sensors that have Wi-Fi built into the leak sensor itself however the obvious trade-off here is that each of those are typically 40 to $70. With this type of design each water sensor uses a 433 MHz RF signal to the central hub. And the hub itself connects to Wi-Fi using 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Because of the low RF range it is quite capable to be placed pretty much anywhere in your house and reach the Wi-Fi hub. The water detection is very quick and it notifies your phone and sends an email. Within 10 seconds of detection you will get a phone app notification as well as an email and obviously you will hear the siren go off loudly. The water leak sensors have three volume levels for the siren. Basically you would want to set this to the high level. Each of these sensors uses two AAA batteries. The anxiety that one day you will run out of batteries on a sensor is eliminated by the fact that it checks into the app and your phone app displays the battery level of each sensor independently. Each sensor can be labeled to however you want to be descriptive. In order to figure out which sensor is which, you basically trigger the water sensor and the app tells you which one is firing and from that point on you know which sensor to label. This is a very nice water leak detection system not only because it works quickly, but it being wifi enabled to your phone with minimal notification delay, is just invaluable. Disclosure: I own a few dlink water sensors which are all stand alone wifi enabled detectors and they cost 70$ each!!! Quite frankly this govee system works better and notifies you quicker even! I also own non connected water detection sirens..they work great too , you just never know when the battery is dead ... And you never know if it's going off when you're not home. I recommend this over D-Link and any other non wifi enabled devices. . Hope this helps Read more

I would definitely recommend and buy again if in the same position. Bought a set of two and then an expansive set of five for 7 total. That might seem like a lot, but isn't. One for under both bath sink cabinets; one behind both toilets; one for the kitchen sink cabinet; one for the laundry room; and finally one behind the fridge for the water line. We were finishing up a major renovation and something convinced me these might be a good idea. Think about it. How long would it leak under a sink before you would notice? Would the cabinet shelf or bottom get ruined? And behind your fridge? When would you notice that leak? So I bought 7 total. In the 4-5 years since, I have had 5 or 6 alarms. All but one was legit. The one anomaly was notifying that the battery was low. Not all leaks were just water. The first alarm - happened the first day and we were no home - was because the dryer hose had come off and was filling the room with hot moist air. It was enough to set the alarm off. And once, I had a hair spray can spring a leak under.a bathroom sink. How often does that happen? So yes, I would definitely recommend these for anyone. The faster you know about a leak, the faster you can prevent damage. The ability to get a notice on the app when not at home is a must. Alarm is loud and the app notification works well. The battery life is good. I've only replaced once recently after 4-5 years. The app tells you the battery level, so you can plan ahead and check periodically. Read more

After 9 months of use, the gateway keeps on disconnecting without connecting back to the WiFi. Became useless. Contacted the seller for warranty. Was told to contact Govee directly, who said this seller isn’t an authorised one and warranty is void... A joke... Avoid this seller by all means. The product itself is nice. Buy directly from Govee and you’ll be on the safe side. Read more
