Best selling Motion sensors

Here's a ranking of the best products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.

1. Philips Hue motion sensor

The motion detector recognizes when someone enters a dark room or leaves a lit one. In the first case, it activates the light with the brightness and color temperature you have programmed. So, for example, if the children need to go to the bathroom at night, they are not blinded by harsh light but are guided through the hallways by gentle illumination. In the second case, when someone leaves a room and no one else is moving there, the sensor first dims the light gradually by 50 percent before turning it off completely. Winner of the IF Product Design Award 2017. 

2. Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Detectors

With the weatherproof Philips Hue Outdoor Sensor, your indoor and outdoor lighting will turn on or off automatically. Thanks to the energy-saving daylight sensor, the sensor only reacts when there is insufficient daylight. This way, your lighting is only on when it is truly needed. The sensor has a detection angle of 160° horizontally and 80° vertically, with a range of 12 meters. The response time of under 0.5 seconds can be individually adjusted in the Hue app. The package includes a mount that can be attached either frontally or in a corner. The sensor is powered by batteries, eliminating the need for disruptive cables. For optimal results, a mounting height of 1.5 to 2.5 meters is recommended. Batteries included. 

3. Ubiquiti UniFi UP-Sense

The Ubiquiti UP-SENSE Smart Home Multi-Sensor offers a comprehensive solution for monitoring and controlling various environmental parameters in your home. With its versatile functionality and user-friendly design, the UP-SENSE enables effective control over humidity, motion, and temperature to make your home safer and more comfortable.

4. Sonoff SNZB-03

Connect a camera to the motion sensor and place it almost anywhere in the house. Then you can see what is happening in your home through the camera on the sensor side of the app. 

5. Sonoff Motion detector

ZigBee Motion Sensor SNZB-06P DC 5V 1A USB-C, 4m. Indoor motion sensor with three sensitivity levels and a detection range of up to 4 meters. The presence detection is based on a 5.8 GHz microwave radar that detects movements or stationary individuals. The built-in light sensor ensures that the light is only turned on when presence is detected in the dark, helping to save energy. Personalize your sensor to your liking: Keep the office lighting on during brief absences and have it automatically turn off after 5 minutes of absence. Smart linking of local scenes: Even if your network goes down, you can still trigger the local Zigbee scene. Explore more possibilities: Based on the platform capabilities of the third-party platform eWeLink App, which supports Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Alice, and IFTTT. 

6. Aqara FP2

The Aqara Presence Sensor FP2 uses state-of-the-art millimetre wave radar technology that can accurately detect the presence of people, even with slight movements. This technology ensures the continuity and stability of the smart device. It can also control other smart home devices through ecosystems such as Apple Home to achieve wider applications. It has features such as human fall detection and a built-in light sensor. Zone positioning: It offers significant advantages over traditional PIR infrared motion detectors as a single radar sensor can be used to monitor rooms of up to approximately 40 m². Furthermore, you can divide the room into up to 30 zones, e.g. sofa, bed or desk. In addition, you can set up individual automation for each zone. It's like using several PIR motion sensors at the same time with one presence sensor, FP2. Multi-person detection: Up to 5 target persons can be detected at the same time. The result is that the system not only divides the room, but also automatically reacts to the position of the different people without interfering with each other. Ultra-high precision: privacy and detection accuracy are taken into account. It is able to detect non-inductive signal detection without collecting real images. Automation can generally be done locally. Millimetre wave radar technology is more stable than detection by infrared sensors, even when you are sitting or sleeping. 

7. Aqara Motion Sensor P1

The P1 motion sensor detects body movements and the state of ambient light. When people move or the ambient light conditions change in the detected areas, the motion sensor sends a notification to the Aqara Home App via the connected Aqara Zigbee 3.0 Hub or connects with other devices.

Configurable Detection Timeout: The detection timeout can be configured without hardware modification. Simply set any duration from 1 to 200 seconds, confirm it by pressing the device button, and the P1 will no longer be stuck for one minute as before. (Please note: Reducing the detection timeout will result in shorter battery life).

5-Year Battery Life: Thanks to energy-saving technologies and improved batteries, the P1 motion sensor can now achieve a record-breaking battery life of five years, allowing it to last even in particularly low temperatures or with rapid detection timeouts.

Comprehensive Compatibility: Compatible with the most popular smart home ecosystems. HomeKit, Alexa, IFTTT, and more are supported. Matter support will be available as an OTA update for Aqara hubs following the official release of the specification.

Adjustable Sensitivity (Distance): Users can set how sensitive the sensor should be. Three sensitivity modes (high, medium, and low) relate to the distance from which the sensor is triggered, helping to reduce false alarms and making installation more flexible.

Built-in Light Sensor: The built-in light sensor in the P1 can be used to control lighting more accurately. For example, turn on the light only when it is dark and motion is detected, saving energy and extending the lifespan of the bulbs.
 

8. Ring Alarm Motion Detector (Gen 2)

Ring Alarm Motion Detector (2nd Gen)
Mount motion detectors in corners or on flat walls and choose between audible or mobile alerts to be notified immediately when
motion is detected in your home. The Ring Alarm motion detector connects to your alarm base station and mounts on any interior wall or corner. This way you always know what's going on at home. 

9. BEG 93321 RC-plus next N 130

Motion detector with a 130° field of detection and sneak-by protection. It features mechanical range adjustment and different follow-up times depending on the direction of movement. The device allows for uninterrupted parallel connection of several detectors. Manual switching is possible via a pushbutton, and it has an adjustable ball head. Immediate operation is available with factory settings, and additional functions can be set via the optional remote control. 

10. Shelly BLU Motion

A motion sensor with instant responsiveness and a long battery life. Quick notifications keep you updated in real-time about any movement, while the durable battery ensures long-term security. It not only detects movements quickly but also works seamlessly with other devices to protect your home.
