one word Awesome.
Completely changes everything. Meets and exceeds my expectations.
Aqara have produced one hell of a sensor.
The Lux sensor alone, is the fastest I’ve ever used. And that alone would be enough reason for me to buy more.
I have two of the original FP1 sensors, which I’m currently using and both have been faultless. Once setup properly.
But have been slow to detect presence. So still need a additional sensor to speed up motion detection and detect Lux levels.
Absolutely not the case with the FP2’s presence sensing and its ability to zone a room.
The down sides. The WiFi 2.4ghz only. Which makes it tricky to initially setup if your mesh router can’t split the networks.
So if your a sole android user. This could cause a problem.
As a IOS user and HomeKit user I had no such problem.
But the Aqare iOS app when used with this sensor is extremely slow to display the current position of presence.
Which gives the end user the belief that it’s not working as expected.
But when you switch over to the android app. Positioning updates of presence update in real time. So obviously a bug with the IOS app.
Home assistant. HomeKit integration works perfectly.
I was aware that the sensor doesn’t currently work with GH and can’t be exposed to GH via home assistant. But that’s easy to get around with a few helpers and exposing the helpers to GH if needed.
I will absolutely be buying more when available
