Enocean: Energy Harvesting Switches and Sensors
Switches or sensors without wires? No problem if you use batteries. But without batteries? The Enocean alliance created a standard for such devices. So let’s have a closer look at switches and sensors that do not need a battery change. And here I have a cheaper Chinese “clone.” How does it compare? And how do these devices compare with Zigbee or BLE switches and sensors? A lot of questions!

Very interesting. As you say, not suitable for lots of scenarios, but I'm sure this technology will be the perfect solution to a problem I will have one day, now that I know it exists! Thanks
Is there a risk of 2 neighbors having similar devices and affecting eachother?
Thanks again for fantastic content … all best from Croatia
Love this stuff. It would be so nice to get away from having to power automation gear. Hoping this technology gets really really cheap 🙂
About 12:50 Luckily a new standard is in the making to make sure that burglars have to handle this use case to be compliant: ISO-112 (ISO-911 in the US, ISO-999 in the UK)
2:55 "the flat battery always happens on a trip with friends"
Well, not really, but I get your Murphy reference.
then again, when you go on a trip with friends you have friends who can drive to the next service station and get a new battery which will last you at least a year again. That is; if you don't preventatively replace the battery anyway, which I would do if I was to go on a trip into noman's land.
Andreas I envy you for the fact that you do not mind learning about many new things. I find it difficult to adopt new technologies that do not serve an immediate use for my surroundings. I try to get many tools under my belt but it feels like my tool belt is tiny.
A very informative video. Although I like the idea of switches without battery ( I am using a couple of Philips Hue taps, which work with zigbee2mqtt now), I think the prices are a little high and adding yet another usb stick to my fhem setup (3 so far, all on a short extension cables to get some distance to the NUC) will make it look more and more like a kraken.
Hi Andreas, I'd also put Z-Wave in the competitors chart. Actually, it is even closer to EnOcean than ZigBee, as it uses the same frequency.
Very interesting. Didn't know how much a raspberry can distort a signal up close.
Explains why i had issues on a simple project i tried years ago. That was an 8266 btw.
if you replace de diode bridge with a schotkey diodes. bridge?
I have spare 2032s everywhere just in case

Andreas, thanks for the video. While I don’t fully understand, you have me thinking… again. I'm monitoring my water meter remotely and using batteries since I have no mains power at the street with the meter. The sensor is a magnetometer that is mostly asleep waiting for the magnet in the meter to spin (polling). With your help I now see that spinning magnet as 1. a voltage spike interrupt trigger, and 2. a parasitic (magneto) energy source. This solves a bunch of problems for me and creates a whole set of new ones. What The Flux, I can't loose, right? I thank you… I think. 🙂
BTW, the burglar example made perfect sense to me.
conclusion: we need to teach burglars to break into our homes in a sensor-compatible way. Can't be that hard … nice sensor topic.
