Worked for 2 weeks and then Connection Error
I love the idea of the remote temperature sensor and it was working for me in my living room/office, which gets hotter faster and then cools differently than my bedroom where the thermostat is located. Unfortunately after a couple weeks it went offline and could not connect back to the thermostat. This appears to be a known issue with complicated steps to reset and reinstall everything. https://www.reddit.com/r/Nest/comments/hniald/nest_temp_sensors_offline/?utm_source=share

Hi Robert, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Temperature Sensor. We’re glad that you love the idea of managing the living room/office temperature settings remotely, but are sorry to hear it went offline and couldn’t connect back to the thermostat. We understand how difficult it could be having to reset and reinstall everything, and this is not the type of experience we want to share with you.

Sometimes, a range issue or wireless interference can cause your sensor to disconnect from your thermostat. Here are some steps to try:
- Try moving your sensor a bit closer to your thermostat. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away.
- Check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the sensor and your thermostat. These items could block the connection. For more help, read Troubleshooting wireless interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282
- Check the battery charge. The Nest app will send you a notification before the battery is fully drained, so you should have plenty of time to replace it.
- If the battery still has a charge, try removing it for 10 minutes. This lets power drain completely from the sensor and forces it to reset. Then put the battery back in and check if the sensor has reconnected in the Nest app.

    Upstairs is always a few degrees warmer than the living room where the thermostat is located. With this sensor we can finally prioritize the bedroom temperature, which has made a huge difference sleeping at night.

    Hi JoeBagODonuts, thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear about the challenges you had when you installed the Nest Temperature Sensor.

    The best placement for the Nest Temperature Sensor is within a maximum of 50 feet (15 m) of your thermostat, so the sensor and thermostat can communicate wirelessly. You may need to place them closer together because the wireless range can be reduced by walls, floors, appliances, furniture and other electronics.

    Some of the sensors work, others get offline easily. It is hard to keep them in the network to register the room temperature. Also, I noticed that sometimes the temperature is inaccurate. Overall these are not reliable.

    Hi Teddy, thanks for sharing the issue with our support team. We're sorry to hear that some Nest Temperature Sensors you have go offline and that you are sometimes getting inaccurate temperature readings.

    Connectivity issues are mostly affected by different factors. If you're willing to give it a shot, here are some recommended steps that may be helpful with the issue:
    - Check for possible congestion in your Wi-Fi network. Removing some of your connected devices can help free up some bandwidth space. You may then check to see if you will still experience the same connectivity issue.
    - You may also check for possible sources of interference such as the thick walls and appliances in your home.

    There may be a couple of reasons why different rooms might show different temperatures in the Nest app. Some rooms are large and take longer to heat up or cool down. Rooms with lots of windows may lose heat more quickly in the winter, or heat up more quickly if the sun is shining. Even something as simple as closing a hallway door can keep air from circulating and cause a temperature difference. The Nest app can show you if one of your sensors has a temperature that’s significantly different from your other sensors. That way you can tell which temperature sensor to use at what time to keep you the most comfortable.

    If you encounter any further issue, please consider contacting our support team for further troubleshooting and isolation here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Actually worked great!
    We have a three story house with the air conditioning unit in the basement. During the summer the basement is always cold, main floor comfortable, and our bedroom upstairs way too warm. We have a baby coming so we need to figure out how to keep it comfortable in the bedrooms. We tried one last night in our room and set the schedule to use the sensor in the morning and and night. Set it to 69 on cool and woke up to 66 in our room with the ceiling fan going and the main floor was 67! Amazing!

      Easy setup. The shipping was fast. I like that I can monitor each room. I wish it could give a humidity readimg like the nest thermostat does. They are very accurate with reading the room temp. They are small enough to hide with in a room. You cant go wrong pirchasing them.

      Improved comfort and reduced energy waste
      Changes in the position of the sun during the day where my office is, as compared to the location of the thermostat, were creating uncomfortable shifts in temperature. With the Nest Sensor we were able to radically improve our comfort and reduce wasted energy. Nest allows you to set up the sensor to base temperature readings based on morning, afternoon, evening and night time periods. Works great.

      The sensors really help me manage the cooler rooms in the house. Even with a system less than 2 years old, we still have some cool/hot spots. The sensors let me know when to focus the temperature on a specific area or room.
