Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor. Smart Lighting Accessory for Outdoor Light Control. Patio, Terrace, Garden.

The Outdoor Hue Sensor works very well, with great coverage and reliability. Integration with my existing Hue lighting was also super easy via the app. With both sensors I purchased, it was very difficult to register them with the Hub; even the support team gave up and offered a refund. Eventually, both sensors registered, but only after many, many frustrating attempts. I strongly recommend doing a full reset (long button press and green LED flash) if you're struggling.

The Philips Hue Motion sensor (indoors) came installed with firmware version: 2.53.6. It was paired with a FRITZ!Smart Gateway with OS 08.26. Pairing was successful. With the FRITZ!Smart Gateway the motion detection, temperature measurement, and brightness (lux) measurement are supported. The sensor cannot be customised by the Gateway nor will be Gateway uses any specialist features of the sensor. It is neat and reliable. It has a magnetic back for mounting on suitable metallic surfaces. It works with two AAA batteries. I am pleased with the purchase.

The Philips Hue Motion Sensor is a great addition to any smart home, especially if you're already using Hue lights. It’s small, blends well with any room, and is super easy to set up. Just connect it to the Hue app, and you're good to go. You can customise it to control lights based on movement and even adjust the settings for different times of day. The motion detection is quick and reliable, with a good range. Plus, it only turns on the lights when it's dark, which helps save energy. It's battery-powered, and the batteries last a long time – up to two years. Overall, it's a solid choice if you want hands-free control of your Hue lights. Much better than all the other options, you get what you pay for.

Good quality and long battery life. Use 3 of them in home automation and never had a problem. Price IMHO is 30% too high

If this little gadget had a personality, it would be that reliable friend who always turns the lights on for you—because that's exactly what it does. No more blindly stumbling into walls or kicking the coffee table in a heroic effort to reach the light switch. My home is now the VIP lounge of convenience, and I owe it all to this tiny motion-detecting wizard. Setup? A breeze. Sensitivity? Spot-on—I once sneezed, and it turned the lights on (okay, not really, but you get the point). And let's talk about its reaction time: it detects motion faster than my cat realizes I’m opening a can of tuna. Honestly, I think the Philips Hue Motion Sensor might be smarter than me. It knows when I’m moving before I even do! 10/10 would recommend for anyone who enjoys effortless lighting and fewer bruised shins.

We pair this with a hue light strip and a hue smart button in a laundry area. It’s really handy to switch on the light in the room when going in and out with hands full of stuff, so much so we hardly use the smart button any more. We really like how it’s hands free and then switches off after a couple of mins when no movement detected. Only the smallest of movements is necessary to reactive the light, so no exaggerated waving of arms needed as with some other sensors I’ve used in the past. Small and compact. We attach ours via a magnet to the side of a fridge next to the door so it picks us up immediately the door opens. Simple to set up and use.

**Pros:** I recently added the Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor to my smart home setup, and it has proven to be a game-changer for my outdoor lighting. Here are some of the key advantages: 1. **Versatile Mounting Options:** The Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor offers versatile mounting options. You can attach it to a wall, ceiling, or even a post, making it highly adaptable to your outdoor space's layout. 2. **Sleek Black Design:** The sensor's sleek black color not only looks stylish but also blends seamlessly with most outdoor aesthetics. It's a tasteful addition to my outdoor decor. 3. **Smart Integration:** This sensor brilliantly controls both my Philips Hue outdoor lights and Innr bulbs within my outdoor wall lamps. It offers seamless synchronization between these devices for a unified lighting experience. 4. **Weatherproof Reliability:** I love that this sensor can handle the elements. With an IP54 rating, it's perfectly suited for outdoor use, whether it's raining or sunny. 5. **Customizable Sensitivity:** The sensor's sensitivity can be adjusted, allowing me to fine-tune the range at which it detects motion. This ensures it caters to my specific needs. 6. **Daylight Sensor:** The built-in daylight sensor is a practical feature. It ensures that my outdoor lights don't turn on during the day, saving energy and prolonging the lifespan of the bulbs. 7. **Long Battery Life:** Thanks to its low-power Zigbee connection, the two AAA batteries last a surprisingly long time. I haven't had to worry about frequent replacements. **Cons:** However, there are a couple of drawbacks to consider: 1. **Pricey for an Accessory:** It's worth noting that this sensor falls on the higher end of the price spectrum for an accessory. But given its solid integration with the Hue system, its support for Innr bulbs, and its durable design, I believe the cost is justified. 2. **Limited Compatibility:** This sensor is primarily designed to work with Philips Hue products. If you have other smart lighting brands in your setup, you might face some integration challenges. That said, it works perfectly with my Innr bulbs. In conclusion, the Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor has made my outdoor smart lighting experience more convenient and secure. Its versatile mounting options, sleek black design, and reliable performance are well worth the investment. Plus, its seamless control over both Philips Hue outdoor lights and Innr bulbs within my outdoor wall lamps adds a layer of sophistication to my outdoor lighting setup. Just make sure it aligns with your existing smart home setup, and you'll enjoy brilliantly illuminated and secure outdoor spaces with a touch of style and flexibility.

Easy to install and set up. Allows flexible control of external lightings and easy automations to be set up in smart home assistant apps. Philips Hue is not cheap, in fact it is quite expensive. But I have to say that it hasn't failed me yet. 🤞🏼

Ce capteur de contact est un excellent ajout à mon système Hue. L'installation est super facile et la détection d'ouverture/fermeture est instantanée et fiable. Je l'utilise pour des alertes de sécurité et pour automatiser mes lumières quand une porte s'ouvre. Fonctionne parfaitement, comme toujours avec Hue.

Chyba najlepszy PiR zigbee na rynku, działa bardzo ładnie z Zigbee2MQtt.

Producto de calidad, se ve robusto. Se empareja muy fácilmente con la aplicación de Philips hue. Funciona como esperaba. Lo puedes enlazar con Apple home. Se instalan enseguida gracias al adhesivo que lleva. Los recomiendo.

Kanonbra, snabb att integrera och gör sitt jobb med att aktivera badrumsbelysning mm. OBS det är en rörelsesensor. Inte en närvarosensor.

Allows me to automatically enable lights when someone opens a door. Easy installation and invisible on my anthracite door. Great addition to my hue system.
