AqaraPresence Sensor FP2 Bracket Set, mmWave Radar Wired Motion Sensor, Zone Positioning, Multi-Person & Fall Detection, High Precision, Supports HomeKit, Alexa and Home Assistant

OK, so far I am very pleased with this. I purchased this to test it for two reasons. My wife suffers from a couple of debilitating neurological disorders. So far I have been using it for home automation. With some "if this then that" I am using it to turn on the bathroom lights and fan for my wife if she enters the bathroom during the day, and only one of the lights dim at night. It has been working great and reliably. No I want to order another one soon and try it for the fall detection. If that works as well I will order several for throughout the house. I will post updates as we progress.

I gotta say after having 2 of these units for a few months now, I wouldn't ever get a wifi presence sensor again. It's just not reliable enough. After comparing the Fp1e that is zigbee based, it's 100x faster and more reliable. The fp2 is not quick to trigger, nor is it reliable at all.This could be due to my network or interference with other devices, but that still just points to not using wifi for automations. I really only went with this because of its capabilities to have zones, but in reality I don't think I need that. I am using smartthings for these, but have recently got a home assistant hub that I can try and use instead to see if it's any better, but I'm not going to hold my breath.If I had to do it all over again, I'd get all fp1e. I'm really disappointed in having spent $160 on two of these devices and now I can't return them. I'd honestly stay away.

Setup is a pain. Reading the failure fine print helped. I turned off my router. I set up another router which allowed me to run 2.4GHz only. The FP2 connected. I switched back to the good router and it worked. Aqara should include that instruction in the manual.I have several 2.4GHz only devices and not one has ever required turning off 5GHz in order to connect. Aqara should correct the firmware.Aqara claims that the FP2 works with Alexa. This is only partially true. The presence sensor shows up in the Alexa app as a motion sensor. Hence the bad revues on Redit and elsewhere. In fact, it does work as a presence sensor in the Alexa app. Aqara needs to correct the Alexa skill verbiage. Note the light sensor does not work in the Alexa app.Smart home reviewers claim the FP2 setup and routines are so powerful, yet none are available without the Aqara hob and other Aqara devices. This is misleading advice. Aqara has supplied the devices to these reviewers and so has some control over content. Aqara needs to correct these errors.I have read that the FP2 will be Matter certified. I hope this is true and that I can look forward to improved operation without Alexa adding inconsistent delays as a go between. Direct local operation between the FP2 and Homey Pro controller is my dream. I hope Aqara will make it a reality. In the meantime, the FP2 is useful enough I now have 2.

Using it for sleep monitoring. It's great because it doesn't require any wearables. I see it also does fall detection so I'll probably buy another one.

I have tried for two days and read so many instruction guides on integrating this to Home Assistant. It works great in the iPhone app, but I have absolutely no use for it there. Saying that it integrates with anything else, much less without a hub, is very misleading. If I find a way to integrate this sensor, I'll update my review.

I have a very large home automation setup with over 400 devices. I tried tons of different presence sensors and these are by far the best I have ever used. In total I have 7 and plan to add 7 more. They maybe on the more expensive side but believe me you get what you pay for.

Terrible product, listen to the reviews/rating (currently 3.7). During the setup it was painfully obvious it wouldn't be able to deliver on what is advertised. I tried it on a shelf as well as wall mounted and neither position performed well enough to add it to my HA and everyday routines

Wanted this to work so badly, just will not link to my wifi. I shut off my 5ghz like it recommended and after dozens of attempts it just refuses to link up. Definitely not goong to be using aqara products going forward.
