Range of the Sonoff Zigbee dongle

Configuration
1

Hello everyone,

I bought the Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus to install on my Raspberry Pi and I wanted to know, for those who own it, are you satisfied with its range? Because

I believe this is potentially a display bug in Gladys.
Even devices 2m from Gladys have 1 to 2 bars for me.

Thanks for the reply; does that mean Gladys isn’t correctly converting the sensor data in its signal intensity bar graph?

The calculation performed is intensity = Math.round(value * 5 / 255)

So a value in Zigbee2Mqtt of 68 gives 1 and displays this icon https://tabler-icons.io/i/antenna-bars-1
But even my sensor at 1 meter from the antenna has a signal quality of 126 (so 2) :frowning_face:

Maybe the calculation should be reviewed. Do you have higher values?

And in meters, what is the range? If I have, :innocent: :innocent: by any chance ( Eden ?) 2 Zigbee keys, how many meters should I keep them apart from each other…

didn’t find the info in the Chinese PDFs
