Description
Features
Compatible with a SimpliSafe security system
This product only works with SimpliSafe packages, such as Shield and Protect.
Full room coverage
Detects motion within 30'. The sensor has a 90° field of vision, giving you a full range of coverage when placed in a corner.
Detects intruders, not pets
These precision-engineered motion sensors are designed to detect the unique heat signature of people. Your dogs and cats under 50 lbs. won't trigger the alarm.
Simple to set
Set the sensor to be active only in away mode (so that you won't trigger it when you're at home) or both home and away modes (for rooms that you want covered with a motion sensor while you're home).
Battery pre-installed
The motion sensor battery is included. It's ready to work right out of the box and lasts several years.
Easy to install
Like all SimpliSafe technologies, the motion sensor is easy to add to your system. Place it on any wall in any room (ideally one an intruder would pass through), and tap Add Device on your keypad. You're ready to go.

Good security system

Quality4 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5The Simplisafe components are easy to install and setup. Put base station on your wireless network. Put control panel in add device mode, detect sensor, name sensor. Peal off stickers on the back, chose your location stick to wall. Done. Works great. I had an issue installing a couple of the components because the wall surface was a little rough but pushing harder took care of keeping the components stuck to the wall. This is especially important for the motion sensors... If they come off the wall they will set off the alarm if the alarm is on.

Needed another one
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I recently bought a complete Wireless Alarm System from the SimpliSafe website, but needed another Motion Sensor because I installed one in a room that is protected by a SimpliCam, which I had not installed yet because I installed Sensors first. Rather than take it down and leave a nasty spot in that corner, I left it there and bought another one. Best Buy had them at my local store for the same price as the SimpliSafe website, so I bought one to, not only have it immediately, but also save on the shipping. The only thing different about it was the Retail Packaging.

Nice add on
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5The basic package I bought four months ago had only one motion sensor in it and I needed three. The first one was installed in the most crucial spot in my home. I bought this now to add to the system; using BB reward points to get it a little cheaper since these never really go on sale, at Best Buy or on the SimpliSafe site. When I added/installed this I had to put the system into test mode. In less than 20 seconds after doing so I received a call from the SimpliSafe monitoring center making sure I was okay and that I intended to put it into test mode. Impressed.

Great - when you adjust the sensitivity switch!

SimpliSafe Motion Sensor
|Posted .Super easy component to add to my existing SimpiSafe system. 5 minute install and configuration. The hardest part is deciding where to put the sensor (i.e. which corner).

Small price to pay for added monitoring

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Awesome addition to my system, tiering alert and automatic alarm trigger are great. I have a Rottweiler and a crazy jump maltipoo but following their instructions re: households with pets I don’t have an issue.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I wasn't sure how a motion sensor would work, but it really does work well and alerts if there's movement in the room. A nice addition to the covered doors and windows.

What experts are saying
Q: Questionhow far away will a motion sensor alert? and whats the recomended height from floor?
Asked by nick.
- A:Answer I believe they show 30 feet but don’t quote me, I know the only I have set up is about 25 to 30 feet away when it detects me. I have mine set up about 7 feet off the ground maybe a little more. They say if you have pets to set them up lower but turn them button side down instead of button side up.

Q: QuestionHow long will it record motion
Asked by Sandy.
- A:Answer It will detect motion for as long as your system is armed. I have mine set up to detect motion while I'm at work and when I'm sleeping. You can set it up to trip the alarm when it detects motion or send a push notification to your phone.
Answered by GoveMasterFlash

Q: QuestionCan I put this camera inside mailbox to catch people steeling from mailbox
Asked by Mailbox.
- A:Answer Hi. The pictured item is not a camera but a motion detector There are cameras available but you would need to ensure your WiFi reaches. You would also need to figure out how to secure it so the person doesn't just take the camera. I'd recommend looking for a discrete location where the camera is pointed at the mailbox rather than something inside the mailbox.

Q: QuestionDoes the "alarm" have a choice of alert modes (ie., vibrate verses alarm/sound mode)? Thank you!
Asked by Vibes.
- A:Answer The alarm system will alert you of an alarm event only by sirens, from the Base Station. If you have Monitoring Service enabled, you'll also get Smart Alerts to phone and email, as well as a call from an operator if you need dispatch.

Q: QuestionCan I set it up on Google home where if it is triggered the room lights turn on
Asked by Scott.
- A:Answer This sensor is not able to function as a standalone, and does need to be connected to a SimpliSafe Base Station to. function. With Interactive Monitoring, we do have integration with Google Assistant, so you can arm the system by voice command. But the sensors are not able to individually work to trigger events in your Google Home setup.
