Having passive sensors for smart home use would save me lot of time and money changing batteries. Interesting to see where this goes.

What protocol do you use? Using ZigBee, my sensors (temp, leak, doors) last about 2 years

I’ve had ZigBee door/window sensors last as little as a few weeks on a AAA battery, making them practically unusable.

Mostly Zigbee. Depending on the sensor, location and activity I’m getting between 6-18 months per battery, but I do have a lot of sensor, so there’s a regular churn of batteries.
