Well Designed and Constructed

It has been a good replacement for my 5-year-old PA Touch sensor, which suffered a failure of its LED cluster. The new unit performs well, though the double-tap procedure to sequence through the five LED light levels is slow and balky. Also, after 30 minutes of trying to view the BME688 measurements, I have had no success despite having seen some frustrated discussion of this issue on the PurpleAir chat site.

Very difficult to install

I should have paid attention to the previous reviews. I gave up trying to install it.

Hello,

We're very sorry you've run into trouble setting up the device. We are more than happy to help you get it set up if you send an email to contact@purpleair.com.

Horribly obtuse UX with poor support

Clearly a fledgling product - purchase only if you have patience to troubleshoot, & if you don't mind "quirky" things that require you to fiddle with URL parameters, poorly organized technical documentation, etc.

Thank you for your feedback. Please let us know what URL parameters you had to fiddle with as this is not usually necessary?
