This device has saved me over hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars! I placed this near the overflow valve on my water heater to detect any possible leaks down the road. Well not even a year later the sensor went off and sure enough the water heater had started leaking and failing. Had it not been for this device, it may have been hours before we noticed the leak was occurring given the location of our water heater! Instead this device notified us within minutes of the leak occurring so we could take measures to shut off the water supply to the water heater before it flooded our home.If you have any possible area in your home where water leaks could occur, I highly recommend you get this device. You honestly owe it to yourself to buy this! Literally saved us so much money and headaches!It connects easily to an existing Ring security system, it’s very small in size and appearance allowing it to be tucked away unobtrusively anywhere in the home. The coverage and range is excellent for the location we had installed this device. The speed of alerts is near instantaneous once water is picked up by the sensor. Overall the performance is excellent, and this was amazing value for the price we paid!

We replaced our Samsung SmartThings leak sensors with these as we are moving over to the ring eco-system for security and home protection.These were easy to install and easy to integrate into the system. One of them may not have connected but a quick restart and it was up and running.These sensors are scattered across 5000 sq ft or so on 2 floors. We have minimal repeaters and hardwired devices as we still use SmartThings for our lights. These sensors have never lost connectivity where the SmartThings sensors would- even when close to the hub and in a house filled with SmartThings repeaters.The Ring Leak Sensor seem to work reliably and have already detected a temperature issue as well as a small leak behind our washing machine. Ring calls us when there is an issue which I prefer over the SmartThings which pushed notifications or texted.My two problems with these sensors: They are big; in fact huge compared to the smartthings version (both new and updated). Luckily we had some room next to our washer and dryer and I was able to remove the front grate of our built in fridge to slide one underneath but the SmartThings sensors could fit in hot water heater and washer pans as they are 66% smaller.Secondly these Ring sensors do not have a temperature sensor like the SmartThings sensors. I can check the current temperature and be alerted of leaks in the basement using one SmartThings sensor. The Ring doesn’t have that feature; it just warns you when the temperature drops below 40 degrees. Fine for some applications but if my house has hit 40 degrees, then I would have liked to have known there was a heating problem at 50 degrees...or really at whatever point I want...which SmartThings allows for.

I tested it and it works- installed in my furnace room so if my boiler springs a leak I'll know before it destroys my basement. It's simple, no frills, installs easily and then you just place it and forget it. I think the only thing I'd prefer is if it adhered to the floor so if it gets bumped it won't shoot across the room like a hockey puck. One can add double sided tape to keep it in place. The first time someone swept the floor down there, it was bumped and sent under the boiler where it melted. Oops!***UPDATED 9/16/20: We broke one of these, my fault, and I replaced it. This little device saved me GOBS of money when it detected a broken water heater. My wife got the alert on her phone and I told her it had to be a false alarm, as I looked in the furnace room and there was no water. I was wrong... I picked the sensor up and it was wet- there WAS water, but not from the boiler. The water came under the wall from the water heater in the next room! Immediately, we went into damage control and shut off water, hooked a hose to the damaged tank, and threw everything we had at containing the water. Another hour and over $50K in stereo speakers and electronics would have been sitting in the water and all the carpet ruined. We ordered more of these and today I'm ordering another one to "hack" into a communications trigger for my boiler- you can hack this device to trigger with a relay so with a little modification I'll get a notice on my phone if my EnviraCom enabled boiler controller sense a problem and shuts the heat down.

Great addition to our Ring system
