Support for Thread and Bluetooth LE 5.0 technology for fast response and more stable connection to the smart home network. PIR motion detection with an estimated range of about 5-10 meters and a viewing angle up to ~120°. Full integration with Apple HomeKit: the sensor transmits data within the HomeKit ecosystem, can be controlled via the Home app, can trigger automations, and send notifications without the need for external cloud.
- Multi-sensor: includes a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor with typical accuracy of ±0.3 °C for temperature and ±5% for humidity.
- Light/dark condition detection: although the light sensor does not explicitly expose the lux level to HomeKit, this feature can be used in automations.
- Battery: 2 × AAA alkaline (indoor version) with standby capability of about 1 year.
- Compact dimensions: 64 × 50 × 37 mm (≈2.52 × 1.97 × 1.46″) for the indoor version.
- Active/inactive motion mode: it is possible to set the sensor to be active only during specific time intervals or based on other scenarios.
- Privacy: the device operates without external cloud – data is handled locally within the HomeKit ecosystem.
Special advantages: Thanks to Thread, the sensor offers better response time and stability compared to many devices that rely only on Bluetooth or WiFi.
Ease of use: not only for motion detection but also for thermal and humidity monitoring – making it useful as a comfort sensor. Its tight integration with HomeKit means automations become simpler and more reliable. The ability to configure the sensor’s activation offers control and helps avoid false or unnecessary alarms.
Checkpoints / usage recommendations: Make sure you have a HomeKit Hub compatible with Thread (e.g. Apple HomePod mini or a compatible Apple TV) to benefit from the advantages of Thread. Without this, the sensor will likely operate only in Bluetooth mode. For optimal detection, place the sensor so that the PIR window is unobstructed and covers the area you want to monitor. Sensitivity adjustments and inactivity periods can help with complaints about "many false alarms." Check the position of the temperature/humidity sensors – if placed too high or near a heat source, readings may be affected. AAA batteries should be checked periodically, as actual life depends on detection frequency.
