Is the leak detection (and triggering water valve closing) locally processed or cloud?
Still deciding which leak detector to get - looks like I would go with either Everspring and ST Leak Sensor.
Everspring has long lasting battery, but the infrequent reporting is a minus. My house has mostly Z-wave devices (except Hue), so maybe makes more sense with Everspring? ST Leak Sensor uses CR-2 batteries which are more expensive and probably needs more battery changing; but it is neater and smaller as I have no need for wired probes.
One concern about Everspring is that if I use a custom DTH like this one https://community.smartthings.com/t/updated-device-type-for-everspring-flood-utilitech-water-leak-sensor/3501
then I has to run in the cloud - am I correct?
I may even consider buying a Hubitat just for the leak sensor and water valve to make sure things can run locally (too much Smartthings cloud downtime for me to be comfortable for this purpose).
