ok thanks for the info. i solved it with the directions in this post Trying to get Alexa to read out a temperature - #41 by dynamicdave . Basically , it reads the mqtt info from the sensor, turns it into a voice command for alexa which announces it from echo device you are querying it from. I would also like to make it work from smartphone but I am not able to do that.
