About this product
The SwitchBot Meter Pro CO2 offers comprehensive environmental monitoring for those prioritizing healthy indoor air quality. This 6-in-1 device provides continuous tracking of carbon dioxide levels, temperature, and humidity – alongside a clear display of time, date, and weather forecasts (when paired with the SwitchBot Hub 2). It’s ideal for individuals concerned about air pollution, allergy sufferers, or anyone wanting to optimise their living space for comfort and wellbeing.
Featuring a high-precision NDIR Swiss sensor, the Meter Pro CO2 delivers accurate readings every second, measuring CO2 levels within a range of 400-9999 ppm with an accuracy of ±50 ppm. Multiple alarm methods – visual alerts on the screen and app notifications (requiring a SwitchBot Hub) – ensure you're promptly alerted if thresholds are exceeded. The device’s ability to store up to two years of data allows for detailed trend analysis, while its portable design with wall-mounting options makes it suitable for various environments.
As part of the broader SwitchBot ecosystem, this meter integrates seamlessly with other SwitchBot devices and voice assistants like Google Home and Alexa – offering automated ventilation solutions when CO2 levels rise. The unit itself measures 3.6" x 3.1" x 0.9" and weighs just 154 grams. A battery life of up to twelve months, combined with low battery warnings, provides peace of mind. Consider that full WiFi functionality requires a separate SwitchBot Hub for complete control and integration.
