Any advice for an outdoor thermometer compatible with deconz?

Looking online I found advices only for the Hue outdoor motion sensor which includes a thermometer, but I don’t really need the motion sensor…

[while posting this I thought that I could create a helper template sensor in HA using the temperature from the weather integration, but if I can take the real temperature next to my home with a device is cool 😃]

Why not use a Xiaomi MCCGQ11LM? Works fine for me here.

I actually modified one as a rain sensor but it keeps hanging after a while, so my brain automatically excluded it. But in this case this could stay away from the rain so it might work, I’ll try thank you!
