Review on 🔒 Enhance Security and Automation with BeSense Z-Wave Ceiling PIR Motion Detector by Phillip Hoover

Works great with Smartthings V1 Hub. It was not proposed to switch to Samsung Connect, so the classic ST interface is used. Both devices were quickly connected to the ST hub, which was 15 feet away. Once connected, I logged into my Smartthings IDE site and followed the included instructions (https://graph.api.smartthings.com/) to change the Device Handler Type dropdown menu to Z -Wave Plus Motion/Temp Sensor”. The instructions that accompany the BeSense products and are published on the BeSense website are easy to follow. Yes, you need to create a free account on the ST IDE website if you don't already have one. I installed 2 BeSense ceiling mount units outside in Michigan weather. One is under the ceiling of the front porch entrance and the other is under the 4 season porch above the slider exit. Neither device is exposed to rain, snow, direct sunlight or moisture. One is about 40 feet from the center of ST. Jumper set to FULL for quick reset between alarms and default PLUS2 sensitivity. No false alarms since purchase 2 weeks ago. You don't have enough time to evaluate the battery life. Both devices use SmartApp to trigger "things" like porch lights, doorbell sirens, and push notifications to cell phones. No problem. Great product that I would recommend and buy again.
