Product Info
Description
The Aqara Motion Sensor P1 is a compact and highly sensitive motion detection device designed for smart home automation. It features a wide detection range of up to 7 meters (23 feet) and a 170-degree field of view, enabling it to detect movement with precision. The sensor utilizes infrared technology for fast and accurate motion sensing, and it is equipped with advanced algorithms to reduce false alarms.
Compatible with Aqara’s ecosystem, it integrates seamlessly with various smart home hubs and systems, allowing users to automate lighting, security, and other devices based on detected motion. The sensor is also energy-efficient, with a long battery life, making it ideal for home security and smart home environments.
Key Features
- Configurable Detection Timeout: No more fixed cooldowns! Set the detection timeout anywhere from 1–200 seconds. Just press the device button to confirm. (Note: shorter timeouts reduce battery life.)
- Record-Breaking 5-Year Battery Life*: Thanks to energy-saving tech and high-capacity batteries, the P1 can last up to 5 years—even in low temperatures or with fast detection settings.
- Works with Major Ecosystems: Seamless integration with HomeKit, Alexa, IFTTT, and more. Plus, Matter support will arrive via an OTA hub update for future-proof compatibility.
- Ultra-Wide 170° Field of View: Detects motion across a huge area: 170° up to 2 meters, and 150° up to 7 meters. The included 360° adjustable stand makes placement flexible and precise.
- Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune how far the sensor can detect with three modes (High, Medium, Low). Reduce false alarms and adapt detection to your space.
- Built-in Light Sensor: Smarter lighting control! Lights only turn on when motion is detected and the room is dark—saving energy and extending bulb life.
- Smart Home Automation Ready: Power endless automations: turn on lights, close curtains, control entertainment devices, and more—hands-free and fully automated.
- Security & Alerts: “Away Mode” for peace of mind. The P1 triggers local alarms (sound & light) and sends instant cloud notifications when motion is detected.
- Stable Zigbee 3.0 Connectivity: Fast, reliable, and energy-efficient smart home protocol with better stability, extended support, and more advanced features.
- Futureproof via OTA Updates: Regular over-the-air updates ensure your P1 stays current with new features and performance improvements.
Note:
* 5-year battery life can be achieved with the LED indication function turned off and with detection timeout not less than 30 seconds.
** Aqara Zigbee 3.0 hub and controllers are required for this functionality.
