Leak sensor prevented me from some pain! (lemmynsfw.com)

Had a leak under the sink in our kitchen. I don’t want to imagine what this would have meant on a larger scale, compared the 20€ I spent on the sensor and the 10mins it costed me to install it.

Re batteries: You could also set up an automation that periodically checks the status and/or availability of your battery-powered sensors. Here's a useful community blueprint for this: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/low-battery-notifications-actions/653754

I have mine checked once a week.
