Why the jump in price? These were $25 (sometimes $20) with samsung.

The prices of most quality, IoT goods have risen across 2020 and 2021 owing to the impact of COVID upon all elements of the supply chain; wireless chips demand a far higher price than normal, else remain unavailable, and logistics and transit costs are significantly higher. Between Aeotec and Samsung, we are vastly different businesses with different models and different scale. Our model is built solely on IoT related products. On account of of not manufacturing millions of white goods per annum, we’re unable to command the same price at the time of manufacture and this is reflected in our pricing.

What is the max temperature it can withstand?

My garage gets to be 100 degrees F in the summer. The temps alert me at 95 because I wanted to know. With anything electronic while it may work fine at higher temperature I would not recommend it. Electrical wiring and devices can usually withstand 140-150 degrees for under 30min with no real damage. But things get rather odd when electronics heat up over 150 for prolonged periods of time. I would say out of an abundance of caution do let let the device operate over 110 degrees F. You are just asking for trouble. Their is a lower limit to some electronics as well. Usually some where between 0 and -40 degrees F. Each product is normally tested for normal living environments so that would be between 50 to 100 degrees F (often indoor temps). Some are rated for more extreme weather but a lot of factors go into play here. Casing, quality of materials, quality of the build, plastic vs metal.

Do you need a hub for this to work or can I connect it to my echo or smart things on my phone

Mine is connected to Smart things

Are these sensors waterproof ? Can they be installed outside on a gate ?

Not sure if they’re actually outdoor rated but I use them outdoors and they hold up just fine in the rain, heat and cold. They are pretty much the same as the Samsung version.
