The general description of how Xiaomi works with OpenHAB is out of date.
Development mode is not supported in new Gateways.
The devices are very affordable and you can get them from your favourite chinese marktes like [AliExpress](https://www.aliexpress.com/) or [GearBest](https://www.gearbest.com).
The sensors run on a coincell battery for over a year.
-After setup, you can disconnect the gateway from the internet to keep your sensor information private.
