That won’t do anything, as these are template sensors which update whenever the Sonoff at switch.sonoff_1000beb186 sends an update.
The change would need to be made on the device — I don’t have a Sonoff, but have a look in its app for an update frequency setting. Alternatively flash with ESPHome or Tasmota which should give you that control.
Ditch that useless Ewelink and go with ESPHome. I have over 10 sonoff modules, first thing i do in each new one is flash with ESPHome. Waaaaay more flexible, waaaaay more options. Think about it: with ESPHome you can connect million things on your TH16: various sensors, port expanders, tons of relays…
If you download original FW first (before you flash ESPhome) you can go back to Sonoff anytime you want anyway…
i didnt know you could flash sonoff with esphome. I got a bunch of those smart sockets S20, but they work fine though. My moto is if its not broken dont fix it, as now i can use those sockets with google home.
I am a fan of esphome too though, for that i use the wemos d1 mini pro $2 a piece on aliexpress.
Well, if it’s good enough for you, then leave it as is, sure. It was good enough” for me, too…at the beginning. But i quickly realized that i’d like to connect more to my sonoff’s, for instance i wanted to measure pressure and humidity, too, not only temperature…
You can flash esphome to pretty much everything with esp8266 (esp8265) chip though.
Is it possible to read the TH16 temperature sensor without flashing ESPHome or Tasmota? My problem is that I don’t want to lose Google Home/Assistant integrations.
I’ve got an NSPanel flashed with Tasmota that I want to ‘read’ the TH16 temperature.
