Temperature + Humidity sensor......really so difficult?

Hi guys,
I need an humidity sensor, I am studying many solutions, but I have difficult to do this.
My configuration is the following:
- Tablet with Windows oerating system and Domoticz.
My first idea was to install a z-wave sensor, but this is not possible because I have not USB ports in my tablet to install USB z-wave stick.
Furthermore I don't want install solutions with Arduino; so.....I was thinking about Xiaomi Gateway that has fully compatibility with Domoticz
(is this correct? https://www.gearbest.com/living-applian ... 44667.html) and the temperature + humidity sensor (which is the difference between these two? https://www.gearbest.com/xiaomi-tempera ... sor-_gear/ ------ https://www.gearbest.com/access-control/pp_626702.html)

Do you think that it is a valid solution?

Thanks

The Xiaomi gateway and sensors are indeed a perfect match for domoticz, simple to install, working reliable and cheap.
The round one is temp and humidity, the square one is relative new and is temp, humidity and barometric pressure. It is already supported in domoticz so that is a good option

Go for a sonoff TH16 with hum/temp sensor.
When you have it then flash it with ESP easy.
So also order a FT232RL FTDI USB so that you can flash it.
It is wifi based and all it needs is power.
