Kaiterra Laser Egg 2+: Apple HomeKit, IFTTT compatible air quality monitor

Laser Egg 2+ is a smart air quality monitor from the stable of China-based healthcare start-up Kaiterra. Priced at Rs 12,995, this air quality monitor measures both the total volatile organic compound (TVOC) and particulate matter in the air.

Being a smart device, it can be connected with iOS and Android devices via the Kaiterra app. It can also be a part of a connected device ecosystem (IoT). However, it works only with Apple HomeKit, and does not support any other platforms such as Google Home and Amazon Alexa.
The Laser Egg 2+ has a cone-like design with a flat face, featuring a 2.6-inch colour screen, and a protruding back. It has a no-frills design, with a power and mode button on the top, air inflow passage and micro USB charging port on the tail, and two tiny legs on the bottom that keep it stable on flat surfaces.
The Laser Egg 2+ can either be used as a standalone device or as a part of connected home ecosystem with Apple HomeKit. Setting it as a standalone device is easy and does not require much effort. Pressing the power button for a few seconds boots the device. It takes around five minutes' warm-up time to identify and set a low baseline before reflecting air quality reading on its display. Once set-up, you can also check information such as temperature and humidity readings by pressing the mode button. Read More
