New leak sensors that don't take magic incantations to connect when?

Sad, all they tried was bring some magic to the people and teach them basic spells and all we do is complain... When the dark lord attacks and none of us know any spells we're screwed

I have zwave water detectors that are pretty easy to pair. The only problem is that every time they reset, they trigger an alarm event. Fortunately, this only happens when I upgrade zwavejs, or change the batteries, so the false positives are not random. Still, it's a weird design decision.

What brand and model are those? I have a Z-wave radio on my HA.

Zooz 800 ZSE42 800LR. $30, the coin battery lasts about a year IME.

Oh nice, I think HA radio is from Zooz.
