THIRDREALITY Zigbee Smart Watering Kit Pro for Potted Plants — Black, Dual Power & Anti-Backflow

THIRDREALITY Zigbee Smart Watering Kit Pro is a Zigbee-compatible automated indoor watering controller that schedules and dispenses measured water to potted plants using USB-C or battery power.

This smart watering kit is built for indoor plant enthusiasts who want dependable, programmable irrigation without daily manual watering. It links to Zigbee hubs and compatible Echo devices or smart home platforms (Home Assistant, SmartThings, Hubitat, Homey) to enable automated routines, remote control, and sensor-driven watering. The Pro model adds anti-backflow protection, adjustable flow and duration, and dual power options so you can place it where your plants need it most.

How does the THIRDREALITY kit actually water my potted plants?

The device controls a small pump and valve assembly to release a timed amount of water into tubing and drippers that feed each pot. You set watering duration from 10 seconds up to 16.5 minutes and choose frequency from once per day to once every 30 days; the kit delivers water precisely and consistently to avoid overwatering.

• Adjustable watering time: 10s–16.5min for tailored doses
• Frequency options: every 1–30 days
• Includes tube (3 m), two drippers and stakes for multi-pot setups
• Anti-backflow valve prevents siphoning from the reservoir

Which smart home systems and hubs work with this watering system?

The THIRDREALITY Pro uses the Zigbee standard and pairs with Zigbee-enabled hubs and Echo devices that include a native hub. It integrates with Home Assistant (ZHA/Z2M), SmartThings, Hubitat, Homey and several other Zigbee controllers, letting you add the unit into existing automations and dashboards.

• Compatible: Echo (4th Gen), Echo Plus, Echo Studio, Eero 6/Pro 6 and listed Zigbee hubs

What power and safety features protect my plants and equipment?

The unit supports constant USB-C power (cable included) or four AA batteries (not included) for portable or backup operation. Built-in safety measures include an anti-backflow check valve and a flow-monitoring safeguard that triggers a low-water alert to avoid dry running when integrated with compatible Zigbee hosts.

• Dual power: USB-C for continuous use, AA batteries for cord-free operation
• Low-battery indicator flashes to warn when using batteries
• Anti-backflow valve prevents reservoir siphoning and unintended drainage
• Flow safeguard alerts "Low Water" if flow stops for 20 seconds (on supported systems)

How do I set it up and maintain reliable watering?

Setup is straightforward: mount the unit near your watering station, connect tubing and drippers to pots, and pair the device to a Zigbee hub. Regular maintenance includes using clean water, cleaning the filter head periodically, and adjusting each dripper's flow for paired pots with similar water needs.

• In-box items: controller, 3 m tube, two drippers, two stakes, two T-connectors, filter, USB-C cable
• Use clean water and clean the filter head to prevent clogs
• Pair plants with similar watering needs on the same device for best results
• Adjust flow with water dropper and place reservoir above device for gravity-fed setups
