    The motion detector is easy to set up with an existing SmartThings hub and it detects motion like it's supposed to. It's expensive when it's not on sale, though.

    I have several of these motion sensors and they work great. Picks up motion easily and has good range. The only issue is that the batteries drain every 6 weeks or so.

    Hardware works very well. The iPhone app interface takes some getting used to. I'd really like native logic processing / rules like if then type functions. Would also like to see HomeKit integration and stronger sonos integration.

    This motion sensor works great. Almost too sensitive. Very easy to configure with the SmartThings app. I like that it also has a temp sensor that can be used as a low limit temp sensor. I can use it with the smart outlet to turn on an electric heater if the house furnace goes out.

    Good at sensing but batteries are a problem

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have two of these units installed and have had them for maybe a year. They work well sensing motion so that’s the good part. The batteries however probably only lasted six months. They second set lasted less than 1 month (?). The batteries are major pain because nobody carries the CR2477 locally. You have to order them online and they are kind of pricey. I ended up re-wiring them to a battery holder with 2 AA batteries. They work fine now. It is a poor design, they should have used readily available batteries such as AAA’s. The units would not have been very much larger.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    If am very happy with my motion sensor. It can be used for more than just sensing if someone enters a room. You can also set it up to monitor when there is no activity and so that it shuts off room lights when you leave. I highly recommend this for you smart home.

    I got these cheap during deal of the day. Works great with SmartThings. I have heard they drain battery really fast, haven't seen the issue yet. I also have these as outdoor sensor, so the added bonus of temperature sensor comes handy.

    This motion sensor works great. It responds quickly to motion events and reset properly. I've tried quite a few other motion sensors on the market and I like this one the best although it does not have a way to adjust the sensitivity for animals.

    The motion sensors are set up with my hue lights and works pretty well... The app makes the difficult a little set up as nothing is really explained but a little reading in the forums and I figured it out. The app also crashed alot when setting up the sensors which had me frustrated but after a update it appears to be working fine. I also purchased it to automatically control my Sonos but the controls are very limited so If your only looking to control your hue lights I would suggest the hue motion sensors and save yourself $100 on a hub

    I use this for when I am out of the house for long durations of time, and to date I've only had 1 false alarm (which was due to a light + temp change). Other than that, this thing does exactly what I wanted with no issues.
