No mention of models that can survive outside. I'm not sure how useful an indoor sensor is??

It can replace expensive thermostat sensors. For example an Ecobee Smart Sensor two pack has an MSRP of $100. You can connect the Zigbee sensors to Home Assistant and adjust your thermostat based on your bedroom if it gets too hot when you sleep. Or turn on your whole house fan.
