Pete's Log: Ecolink Z-Wave Flood Sensor

Entry #2212, (Home Automation)
(posted when I was 44 years old.)

I bought a Z-Wave flood sensor two years ago, hooked it up in our laundry room, tested it, and then forgot about it.

A couple days ago we had a little laundry room mishap and the floor got wet and I noticed the little sensor sitting there on the wet floor, wondering why I hadn't gotten an alert. So I checked Home Assistant, and saw that the sensor had in fact switched its status to "wet" but when I reinstalled Home Assistant, I apparently neglected to reconfigure an alert for the flood sensor. Silly me.

Anyway, this sensor is still running on the original battery from two years ago, so nice work little sensor. Sorry I wasn't listening to you.
