Works great with SmartThings
Got this motion sensor because it's so much cheaper than any other models out there. It works great with my SmartThings hub, and I use it to trigger a Phillips hue light to come on in the hallway. It comes with an optional corner mount that works great. It uses a wierd size of battery (C i think?), which could be a downside for replacement. The battery life is fantastic, but that is probably due to its slow reset time. Like the previous reviewer stated, it takes about 4-5 minutes before it resets to "no motion", which is a bit slow for my taste, but similar in all these battery powered motion sensors to save energy.It was correctly recognized as "Z-wave Motion Sensor" by SmartThings. If you have any questions, let me know. *EDIT* If you're hoping to get rid of that 4-5 minute lag before it resets to 'no motion', just change the internal pin to test mode and it makes it almost instantaneous. I've had mine on test mode for over 6 months now and the batteries are still going strong.
