MiFlora Sensors Not Updating Anymore

Configuration
1

Anyone else experiencing issues with MiFlora plant sensors since updating to 97.2?

It seems like they work for a period of time after a reboot then just don’t update at all.

Here is my configuration for one of the sensors (I have 6 in total all the same)…

  - platform: miflora
    mac: 'C4:7C:8D:64:11:E6'
    name: Outdoor Plants
    force_update: false
    median: 1
    monitored_conditions:
      - moisture
      - light
      - temperature
      - conductivity
      - battery

You can tell when it went ‘stale’ below and then after I rebooted just a few minutes ago when it checked back in upon rebooting:

Never had issues for months with this prior to updating…

Wondering if I should look into the miflora mqtt solution. Any of you do that with better success than relying just on the Bluetooth plant configuration?

I haven’t noticed any issue with my 5 MiFlora sensors.

I didn’t notice anything either with my sensor.
Does it work with the flowercare app? Like that you can see if it is an issue with the sensor or integration. Have you checked the battery?

Did you find a solution for this? Same thing here.

I’ve been using the HACS version… Xiaomi passive BLE monitor sensor platform

It only works with the international versions so I found out which of my sensors are not international, which was a bummer but this addon works flawlessly for me for the 3 that do work.

Thanks for your response!

When you say international version, is that the green or white coloured ones
I have found the ones coloured green also seem to stop updating after a period of time and the battery life is terrible compared to the white coloured ones i have.

I have the white ones.

They are all white but some that say ‘North’ aren’t working, so I have to believe that they are not model: HHCCJCY01

The 3 that are working report back with the sensor/model type: HHCCJCY01

These are the ones that work for me:

Not sure if those images help but any of them that I have that have the ‘north’ on them don’t work with the HACS plugin and they all used to work with the normal miflora addin. I’ve just abandoned using the ones that say ‘north’ on them for now.
