AqaraZigbee Presence Sensor FP1E, mmWave Radar Wired Motion Sensor, AI Spatial Learning, Supports HomeKit, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Matter Over Bridge, Requires Aqara Zigbee 3.0 Hub

Works really well, quite sensitive so be aware of where you place this.Has been extremely reliable with Home Assistant. You must supply your own USB power adapter

Handy little mmWave sensor, but you get what you pay for. This is the cheaper version compared to the FP2. So it works pretty well but still a few small issues. Its decent for tracking 1 single person, but cant do more than 1 and doesnt do zones. Upgrade to the FP2 for more functionality. You will have to spend an hour getting the placement just right, but once its set, you can let it work. I connected mine to Home Assistant (no need for the aqara app if you have HA and Zigbee) and it works well. The only bug is at night, it does not detect sleeping that well. But for an office or living room watching tv, it works fine with subtle movements.

Works great with Hubitat. Much better than a standard motion sensor and offer the ability to easily determine if a given room is occupied

It is erroneous to say this sensor is Zigbee 3 compatible or HomeKit compatible UNLESS you have an Aqara hub. When I added the sensor by itself to my SmartThings system, it showed up as a "Zigbee Connect thing" or some generic nonsense like that. It did nothing.I thought the Zigbee 3 note meant I could use this with HomeKit through SmartThings, but no. It specifically says "Requires Aqara Zigbee 3.0 HUB " and they mean it. Once I bought the cheapest Aqara hub (around $29 when I got it), it still took some work and updating firmware to get it all working, but now it is flawless; I have a simple sensor that will turn lights off when I am not in my office.Also, I don't think this will work in “HomeKit compatible" mode in the Aqara app. I tried it, but the sensor would never pair with the hub. Then when I redid it in the Aqara app with an account (not HomeKit compatible mode), I was notified to update firmware, and things all worked. Once it was set up, it worked great. But the Zigbee 3 note is really about what Aqara hub to get, not hubs in general.So, honestly, I would recommend this if you have an Aqara Zigbee 3 hub or you just add in to the cost the extra for the USB stick Aqara hub. It's an actual "presence sensor" not just motion detection.

(Edit: 10/04/24) This month’s z2m update brought support for the FP1E. Now I have the device directly on my main Zigbee network in Home Assistant. It works great.I was easily able to pair this Aqara FP1E Presense Sensor to my M3 Hub, just followed the prompt when adding a new device. I was then able to see my Sensor in the Matter Integration that the M3 is a bridge for in Home Assistant. I set up an automation the when presense had changed from any state to clear for greater than 1 minute, to turn off the lights (if already on) in the room I have the sensor in. So far so good. I am however looking forward to when zigbee2mqtt and/or ZHA support this Zigbee device, I am very interested in seeing what is controllable/observable. I had been able to easily pair the FP1E to my z2m network, but at time of writing, it's not yet a supported device.All in all though, good sensor so far. Detects me, totally (maybe) a human, but not my cats. Setting the range of the sensor was easy too, a slidable scale within the Aqara app. And the AI/machine learning "reset" function cleared a clear room and hopefully accounted for all that it is supposed to.

TLDR: get the FP2 presence sensor if you are using HomeKit or different sensor if you have any other platform instead.This is a real review of a customer who actually paid for the product. I have other Aqara products, including some of the newer releases, and my experience with Aqara has been pretty good for the most part. So it pains me to write this review.What I like: Zigbee device meaning local control, set up is pretty simple, magnetic/adjustable mount.The reason I only gave it 1 star:You have to be careful with the descriptionAqara is describing this as "precise detection for optimal spaces." Meaning that if you want presence detection you have to be within the range, which is 30 degrees on any direction from the middle of sensor, and no more than 3 meters (wall mounted). If you are outside that area the sensor is not as accurate and works as slow motion sensor only. So if your room is a decent size this won't be ideal for you.Aqara advertises a detection range of up to 6m ~ 20 ftI've seen people complaining about the power aspect wired vs battery. IMO this is not deal breaker; however, a fixed wire is a deal breaker. Fixed wire means placing can be challenging and you will need an extender. This can become an eyesore with wires hanging where you don't want them. also if for whatever reason your wire breaks that's it. Not to mention that now everything is moving towards USB C and Aqara is not even including the power brick...With this release it feels that Aqara is repurposing a sensor that has been available in the Chinese market for the past 3 years.Aqara get it together this is the second sensor that under delivers this year. The P2 settings cannot be adjusted and now this!
