  • 9 Feb 2021 Update: Hub & Water Leak Sensors--Great TechSupport
Style: 0 dB
Update 9 Feb 2021. Customer service support, especially from Eric, has been outstanding. Web-based product description has improved greatly and their suite of products continues to expand with interesting new applications for the YoSmart ecosystem. I have alerts set on all of the components of my YoSmart system, and am impressed to see notices come in on email and smartphone when a component exceeds threshold I set (example house humidity), or the hub falls off the network (example, short power outage). The main issue had been Hub would not stay connected on 2.4 GHz channel on WiFi, and so had to operate as an Ethernet hardwired connection. Today Eric suggested I unplug the Ethernet and move the Hub more than 6 feet away from Netgear satellite station, so I moved it 50 feet away. After about 30 minutes, my app showed that Hub was again "Offline". Perhaps it was offline immediately and just took that long for the update to percolate through the ecosystem and back to my app. *************************************** Now that the Hub and Water Leak Sensors are configured, and deployed and Hub is hardwired to home network (NOT WiFi), I give the system 4 stars for intuitiveness of App, functionality during testing (including sending texts and e-mail messages), and connectivity of sensors with Hub. Customer service was also extremely responsive or I would have returned purchase at end of first week. Post-deployment with replaced Sensor and new Hub would be 5 stars if the Hub had not kept dropping off the 2.4 GHz channel on house WiFi, or if I had not planned on using WiFi to begin with. I have given the purchase an overall 3 stars due to problems with initial Hub setup, a sporadic set of water sensor probes on one of the 4 Leak Sensors, unreliability of the WiFi connection on 2.4GHz, and the delay for YoLink to send a new Water Leak Sensor (new one worked fine) and a new Hub (new one would not stay on WiFi 2.4 GHz channel either). Tech support was were responsive, but shipping took a number of days. Tips covered below: * If something doesn’t go like you think it should during initial set up, contact Tech Support ASAP. It’s not worth your time to try and do trouble shooting with a lack of YoLink FAQs and updated useful YouTube demos. * High Marks to Tech Support responsiveness, though the one time I called they answered the phone just saying “Hello” and not identifying themselves as YoLink Tech Support. * The Hub is designed to only ride a 2.4 GHz WiFi channel and that DID NOT work reliably for the Hub or replacement Hub YoLink sent. Mine is now configured via dedicated Ethernet cable to my WiFi satellite station modem. I have seen other reports on YoLink Hub that had the same 2.4 GHz channel problem. * Once Hub was connected to WiFi via Ethernet, connectivity and reporting with Water Leak sensors at the other end of house and in attic was great, showing strong signal strength. * Configure your Hub to send a notice if the Hub goes offline. * Test all your Water Leak Sensors in the environment where you expect them to work, as well as e-mail and phone alerts. I set Alert Interval to 1 minute with both App alert and e-mail. One set of probes did not consistently alert when tested (worked about 20% of time) and I exchanged with YoLink for a new Sensor. * Pay attention to naming conventions of Hub and Sensors. It will not give an error message if you don’t follow the naming convention (which I haven’t found, just trial and error of what was allowed to be saved). * Check for firmware updates for sensors and Hub on the App’s “Detail” page. * I like the battery-low-warning feature, but only time will tell if it actually works as designed as the battery life winds down. - Problems began immediately out of the box. The instructions are by no means complete and there is no place to find out the cause and fix of error messages. A couple of YouTube clips are short and go too quickly to completely understand what feature on the App was touched. - The YoLink HomePage FAQ had no questions, just preformatted form fill information. - The first step, “Binding” the Hub to your App (making it part of your “ecosystem”) produced the following error when I pressed the “Bind Device” bar in App: “Error The device has been bound” . Way too much research to try and figure out what this error meant and how to clear it. Finally I emailed YoLink. I actually got a fairly timely reply. Basically, the devices get bound when being tested before being shipped, and YoLink failed to unbind the device before shipping. So Tech Support “Unbound” the Hub for which I had provided the serial number. Once Tech Support Unbound the Hub from their location, I was able to Bind it into my YoLink ecosystem. Lost a day and a half on that. - On to WiFi connect problems (never resolved with 2.4GHz channel). I have a Netgear Orbi base plus two satellite station router with both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels and a separate back channel. I have other devices on both channels and none have ever had trouble finding an appropriate usable channel. While the Hub would connect fine using the ethernet connection on the router, it was not my intent to use the last ethernet-connection on the master station for this Hub. When I unplugged the ethernet connection and attempted WiFi, it immediately detected the network name broadcasting and I entered the password. When I attempted to connect, the App eventually errored out with an error notice that said “Connect Faild”. I called Tech Support and they apologized and said I need to do the WiFi set up while it is still connected via ethernet (this is not in the instructions either), admitting that it should connect just fine to the 2.4 GHz channel. I did that, finally connected Hub to WiFi and removed the ethernet connection. Things were fine until I went to test the water sensors and they were not sending alerts when sitting in water. Turns out the Hub fell off the WiFi (and I had not turned on the alert to let me know Hub was offline). NOTE: DURING ALL OF THIS CONFIGURING AND TESTING, THE HUB, ROUTER, PHONE/APP AND WATER SENSORS WERE ALL WITHIN 2 FEET OF EACH OTHER. Once I reconnected ethernet to Hub, alerts began coming to the app and my email, both which I had selected. - The Hub and Water Leak sensors can be given unique names and assigned to unique room names. I found that renaming the Hub as "Hub #1" was a non-starter. The naming convention would not accept the “#”. This was a trial and error discovery. The naming function also went stupid and would not accept a space at the end of the name I entered accidentally, along with special characters within the name. No error or notice….just would not save the name until I corrected the name to comply with the unknown naming convention. A "Space" within the naming conventions was fine, just not at the end. - All Sensors and Hubs required Firmware update. You have to search for that in the devices’ Detail page. Updates were all completed within about an hour. - I double checked the Water Leak Sensors and subsequent Alert notices. I laid a wet paper towel across each of the three sets of probes (two sets of probes on the bottom, one set of probes on the top), one set at a time. I watched for the Water Leak Sensor red alert light on the Sensor and waited for alert to come to phone. On the four water sensor modules I bought, one set of sensors on the bottom of one Water Leak Sensor did not consistently come on (about 80% of the time no red alert light and no App alert to the phone). I returned that Sensor and YoLink promptly sent a new one which worked properly. - After testing all sets of probes on the Water Leak Sensors initially with a wet paper towel across the pairs of probes, I tested them on the actual surface I will deploy them on. These Sensors are deployed to the attic on the plywood floor. What I found when testing on a piece of plywood was that a steady drip-drip away from the probes eventually ran around the probes and the probes were apparently submerged in a thin layer of water and set off the probe light and alerts. If I just wet the plywood and let it soak in and then put the Sensors on wet plywood with no more dripping, none of the Sensors alerted. Since that’s not the scenario with a leak that would wet the attic plywood I deployed them. But it’s smart to actually test them in exactly the scenario and material you want them to perform…not just with a wet paper towel. - YoLink send me a replacement Hub because the original Hub would not consistently stay on the 2.4 GHz channel even sitting 2 feet from the router. The replacement Hub would not stay on WiFi either. The Hub is now Ethernet connected to a satellite on the WiFi network (using a NetGear Orbi Modem with a master and 2 satellites). I have turned on the alert to tell me when the Hub is offline, which is how I knew it was falling off and getting back on many times over a few hour period when I was connected via 2.4 GHz WiFi channel. - Both email and call to Tech Support (California) were VERY responsive. At some point that frequently stalls in companies and if YoLink doesn’t substantially improve their printed and access to YouTube instructions, their own in-house procedures before shipping, WiFi connection problem, and FAQs, I expect customer satisfaction will fall off. ... show more

  • Sooo easy to setup; Works great; Stellar Customer Support
Style: 0 dB
I do 'okay' with today's tech but I'm not what I'd call tech savvy. This system is so much easier to setup and use than anything else I've dealt with lately. Importantly, I have no monthly fees! (I think there may be some upgrades you can opt for but not in my case). The leak sensors give me an instant alarm if I have even the smallest amount of water at any locations in the house/garage where I've put a sensor (behind toilet, in under-sink cabinet, beside back of washing machine, etc). On a separate order, we purchased and installed the "YoLink Smart Valve controller 2 with 1" Brass Motorized Ball Valve" and we linked the valve to the sensors, so with that, it will automatically turn off the water when there is a leak. I can also turn the water off/on from my phone app. I know all this sounds big but it was actually all much easier than it sounds! Even if you don't get the Hub (which means you won't use internet/wifi and won't have the phone app), the LORA technology works so great. LORA Goes much much farther than internet and for us is more reliable than our internet/wifi. So what we did was both. We set this system up to use the internet and therefore use the phone app, AND for the. sensors and valves, we also paired them to each other and have battery back-up for those instances when power is out and/or internet/wifi is down. AND on top of all that, their Customer Support is great. They are real people (not bots), I think in California. They know their products and are very helpful. I've dealt with Mesha and Mark, both super helpful, super knowledgeable, Not canned scripted support but actual technical product specialists. ... show more

  • YoLink and a Bulldog Can Prevent a Home Flood
Style: 0 dB
We had a flood a few years ago when our 3-year-old American (brand name) water heater in the garage ruptured, blew a hole in the drywall, and water poured into the house. Of course this happened late at night on a holiday weekend. I never, never want to repeat that terrible experience! Reassembling our home took 4-5 months of hassles and more money than the insurance company paid. (We wanted more control than turning everything over to a contractor with a collection of minimum wage workers.) After much research, we bought a YoLink water detection system with a base station, 12 sensors, and an alarm. Sensors have been located under or next to every source of water in the house -- toilets, sinks, clothes washer, refrigerator, dishwasher (a Sensor 2 runs under it), water heater, and water softener. I'm a 69-year-old woman who isn't a programmer and I'd say the set up was pretty simple. When I got stuck, YoSmart's customer service (hi, Emily!) and tech. support (hi, Eric!) were an email away. We recently installed the last part of our system -- a YoLink controller and an EcoNet Bulldog-JW+ purchased at https://www.econetshop.com/bulldog-jw2.html. (We ordered the ODK-2 system that includes a beefy clamshell box for the controller because we live in the desert and our water supply is outside.) Here's what will happen within seconds if we have a leak in the plumbing. For example, let's say the pipe under the kitchen sink starts dripping. 1. The sensor we placed under the pipe will quickly react to a drop of water. It will send a signal saying water has been detected and it's time for the Bulldog to close off the water supply. 2. The base station will alert the controller sitting outside in the clamshell next to the water supply to spring into action. It also will sound the alarm, which emits a very loud blare for 30 seconds.) 3. The controller will direct the Bulldog to shut off the water supply. I've counted. The water will be completely shut off in 19 seconds. My husband didn't get it shut off that fast during our flood. 4. Emails also will be sent to both my husband and me alerting us that a water leak has been detected. (Only one of us can be designated to receive a free SMS message and, as our family tech, I receive it.) These communiques specify which sensor has been triggered. I called YoSmart for help when I needed to program the sensors to send messages to turn off the water supply. This needs to be done for each sensor. (YoSmart, why can't we group the sensors and only go through the procedure once?) I'm going to list the steps in hopes it will help another person who lacks familiarity with IFTTT (If This, Then That) programming. Note: Before you program the sensor, you need to scan the QR code on the YoLink valve controller, bind it to the system, press the Set button on the controller, and position the slider on the lower right of its tile on the app to on. How to program a YoLink sensor to trigger a shut off off the water supply 1. Begin at the home screen of the YoLink app on your mobile phone. 2. Tap the Smart button located at the bottom of the screen. 3. Tap Automation on the top right. 4. Tap the white plus symbol in the upper right. 6. Type the name of the sensor that will initiate the action. Example: Kitchen sink 7. Tap the plus symbol in the When section. 8. Tap Device Actions. 9. Tap the tile for the sensor that you're programming. (Kitchen sink in our example.) 10. Tap the button next to Water Detected. 11. Tap the plus symbol under Behavior. 12. Tap Device Actions 13. Tap the YoLink Valve tile. (Is the slider switched to on?) 14. Tap Close. 15. Tap the white check mark in the upper right on the Device Actions screen. 16. Tap the white checkmark in the upper right on the Choose and Set screen. 17. Repeat this procedure for all of the sensors that you want to initiate a water shutoff. OK, it looks complicated but it really isn't. The first go-through takes a little while, but I had a dozen sensors programmed in a few minutes. I'm a big fan of YoLink. Usually anyone who visits our home gets a demonstration. The only thing I'd like to see is a bank of step-by-step directions like those above for assorted system actions. For example, I was told the system could phone me when it's triggered, but I haven't figured out how to do that. It's my opinion that YoLink has posted too many long YouTube videos with annoying music. I would like a step-by-step list of the actions. Adding an image next to each one would be a bonus! I could print them and quickly get the job done. ... show more
