ecobee - SmartSensor 2-Pack - White

Works great, i have one in the living room, master bedroom, and guest room

Gets the job done. Like having the temp of each room and ability to focus on which ones are important to heat/cool. Works with HomeKit well also.

I love my Ecobee smart thermostat and these senors take it to the next level! Not only is my thermostat able to better know how to heat and chill my home, because of these senors it now knows where the hot or cold spots are, what rooms are being used, when I'm home, and help me use less energy! They've paid for themselves in a month!

It’s like my ecobee thermostat is following me around the house! Just like my wife, but in a good way!!!

Does the job perfectly with individual room temperature control

This review was written based on its use with the SmartCamera, SmartSensors for doors/windows and the Haven monitoring service. I don’t own an ecobee smart thermostat, but these smart sensors can double as motion sensors for its ecobee’s home monitoring solution. I'm a big fan of when engineers find innovative ways to use devices that are already on the market for a completely different purpose. Bravo to ecobee for that. For the most part, I can only say good things about the sensor; they come in two-packs and are easily added to an ecobee account (they’ll need an ecobee thermostat or an ecobee smart camera to be used as a central base station). When used with the Haven service, the sensors easily pick up motion and report back as activity alert notifications. The sensor itself is compact and runs off its own battery. It can either be mounted on a wall with the wall mount or used with the magnetic base. Again, all great things. I have no complaints with this piece of hardware. So what complaints do I really have? It’s the service required to run this thing as a home monitoring device. In order to get motion alerts from these sensors, you’ll have to pay for the Haven service. Other home monitoring/security solutions provide notifications as a free-to-use; most of the time, you’re really paying for cloud space to store recorded videos. But to pay for notifications is a bit much. I’d say that if you’re already deep into the ecobee ecosystem with the thermostat and SmartSensors, then it’s a natural progression to pay for the Haven service because you already own the hardware.

Great addition for Ecobee 4 thermostat users. Place these small remote sensors where you spend the most time. They detect when you're in range and optimize comfort for that area. My local utility offers an Eco+ plan that offers lower rates to participants who decide to economize during peak use periods. It's a great, automatic way to save money every month.

These have helped me to control the temperature in my house. I constantly struggled with different rooms having drastically different temperatures. I can now set my thermostat to only pay attention to my bedroom sensor at night, ignoring the other rooms, and letting me sleep comfortably.
